And the study was even proven wrong in the 17th century. A finite amount of monkeys already produced Shakespeare in a finite amount of time; it took roughly 55 million years.

Source: Primates show up in the fossil records, dating to roughly 55mill years. And Shakespeare’s complete works were most likely completed by William Shakespeare, a famous decendant of said primates.

I’m not sure I’d be comfortable with my landlord harvesting my vomit as rent.

“I’m eating it, I promise it’s not a sex thing.”

I was thinking that, but figured I’d go for input data instead for the sake of variation.

And more convenient for holding

Basically, it’s a term used for infighting in a group/cult stemming from one or more members being pointed to as straying from the original cause. It often happens when one group sees another group within the same crowd as not pure enough. The first sign of this in this particular context was when Maga started referring to many supportive Republicans as Rinos.

He might have his endorsement, but never his approval.

I’m leaning towards “no”. His fragile ego will have taken two nasty blows in a row. Plus in four years he’ll be even older and more fragile, and it’s already pretty bad.

If I’m right, I’m sure he’ll endorse some other maga-clown instead.

The sequels aren’t bad because they’re woke (are they woke, though?), they’re bad because they’re bad.

For example, I think Daisy Ridley played the part very well, and the character fit in the overarching universe. But the plot was awful and predictable.

And somehow Palpatine returned.

EDIT/ADDITION for emphasis: I loved the acting. Especially Finn. I didn’t find Kylo Ren to be a believable character, but Adam Driver did a great job regardless. Everyone did a great job with Ep VII, except the writers and Disney execs.

I think so too. My kids are around the age I was when I first started tinkering with PCs, but they don’t have any awareness of what’s going on under the hood, (to be frank, nor do they seem to need it, as everything is so polished these days).

I’m thinking of asking their teachers if I can take them out of school for a day each and bring them to work with me for educational purposes so they get some perspective in the form of networks and servers.

Sure, they’re mostly interested in gaming, but I want them to see what kind of infrastructure is needed for a multiplayer game, specifically the hardware that they never get to see.

I’m building a new server stack in a couple of months, and most of it will be used for testing, so I’d like for them to help build and connect it.

If I remember correctly, it was a regular folder with a special icon. The intention was that you could drag&drop it to some removable media to move between computers.

I guess MS envisioned it as a digital replacement for the physical suitcase of documents you’d bring to/from work.

Furthermore, this “digital replacement” strategy can be seen in other (now mostly defunct) MS programs such as that program that was bundled with windows 3.11 ( I think it was called wincard.exe) that mimiced a rolodex.

I’ll take my MCSE now, thank you.

EDIT: Seems there was some sync stuff with it as well. I’ll settle for some junior certification, thank you.

I think the argument being made is that it doesn’t mean more users are manually migrating to linux, because you don’t buy a steamdeck because of its OS. You use steamOS because it comes with the steam deck.

However, users choosing linux over windows is only one aspect of the good news: Widespread linux use, intentional or not, makes it less likely that a developer will skip it as a platform “not worth the extra effort”

First of all, welcome.

Depends what you’re after, really. I find that lemmy has less of an echo chamber, but the average political stance is a lot more left-ish than reddit.

If your opinion is considered garbage, you’ll probably be downvoted for it, but banned is another thing; You can find an instance more to your liking, for example if you post tankie stuff on lemmygrad, you’ll probably only get praise from there.

It mostly comes down to how a platform with many people tend to naturally operate - garbage people get treated at such by the rest. So whatever your leanings might be, I suggest you find an instance that is somewhat reasonably close to share your values.

Other than that, one of the main differences from reddit is the content quantity - Smaller user base means less content. And I’m perfectly fine with that, as I can keep up with the feed without scrolling for hours.

Also, here I can say that I don’t give two shits about neither Zelda nor Link, without fear of backlash. At least yhe contemporary games - Everything since Link II for NES has been kinda meh in my book.

And if you want to filter out politics, blocking lemmygrad takes away most of the tankie-spam.

If I fill my ass with Helium, will my farts sound even funnier?

I honestly don’t remember my printer brand. And that’s a good sign. I bought it years ago, and it now lives under my basement stairs on a static IP via wifi, accepting the on average bimonthly print job that I need from it. Then I walk down, fetch the print, and close the door on it again. I should name it Harry Potter.

I just want to remind everyone that Mark Bankston was one of the litigators during Alex Jones’ civil suit. And he won that case with a 1.5B$ judgement in favor of the Sandy Hook parents. I suggest everyone get a metric fuckton of popcorn if he brings a case against Musk.

I manage by being scandinavian. It’s not as bad here.

Jeg har starta i det små. Når jeg må i selvbetjeningskassen mot min vilje så legger jeg aldri til poser.

Edit: Når jeg tenker meg om så “stjal” jeg en Selbu Blå her om dagen, etter at jeg la den i frontlomma på vei til kassen, så glemte jeg den frem til jeg kom hjem.

Jeg blir litt stolt av mine medborgere nå.

Edit: Jeg pussa støvet av 25 år med sjørøver-erfaring her om dagen etter at jeg innså at alle streamingtjenestene sammenlagt koster meg mer enn canal digital noen gang gjorde, til tross for at de driver med direkte svindel. Streamingtjenestene har tydeligvis glemt at det eneste grunnlaget de har for å eksistere er at det er marginalt mer praktisk enn å laste ned. Nå har de blitt dyre og innholds-fragmentering gjør det upraktisk.

Kone og barn holder seg til netflix o.l. men jeg seiler på de syv hav.

Same. Lego is a close second.

Most of them, anyhow.

Looking at you, Munchkin (or whatever your name is. You don’t deserve people putting effort into looking up your spelling…)
