Fortran 66 isn’t too bad. You have to write everything yourself but if you’re just maintaining it is normally fine. Gotos get annoying, though!

3·19 days agoYou believe that North Korea actually is electrified but they just avoid light pollution? They are among the least electrified countries in the world.

I wouldn’t normally say this but it seems warranted in a thread about “Factism”. Trump did not win over 50% of the popular vote. He won with 49.8% in 2024 and 46.1% in 2016.

7·29 days agoIt seems like, while labels are important for communication, they are just unable to capture all of the nuance when it comes to sexuality and gender.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that ultra-processed food make up two-thirds of the calories consumed by American childrenEnglish
3·30 days agoYou should read about what ultra-processed means before spreading misinformation. In fact, ZERO of the examples you gave make something fall into the Nova “ultra-processed” classification. Each of those would place them in the category “processed”.
Processed foods are relatively simple food products produced by adding processed culinary ingredients (group 2 substances) such as salt or sugar to unprocessed (group 1) foods.
Processed foods are made or preserved through baking, boiling, canning, bottling, and non-alcoholic fermentation. They often use additives to enhance shelf life, protect the properties of unprocessed food, prevent the spread of microorganisms, or make them more enjoyable.
Examples include cheese, canned vegetables, salted nuts, fruits in syrup, and dried or canned fish. Breads, pastries, cakes, biscuits, snacks, and some meat products fall into this group when they are made predominantly from group 1 foods with the addition of group 2 ingredients.

572·1 month agoI agree with you that this should be illegal. I expect this was in the terms of service, though. Since we have no laws restricting this kind of bullshit, the company can argue that they’re within their rights.
We need some real legislation around privacy. It’s never going to happen, but it needs to. We need a right to anonymity but that is too scary for advertisers and our police state.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt's relative detained by ICEEnglish
4·1 month agoOh, I have no doubt that the Leavitt’s might use ICE as a weapon against someone inconvenient. The article makes nothing clear, though.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt's relative detained by ICEEnglish
18·1 month agoMaybe not even that. Former girlfriend of Leavitt’s brother? Former one-night-stand of Leavitt’s brother? The article is unclear in a way that is either purposeful or ignorant. I’m not sure which.
I guess you need reading skills in addition to social skills. Again, I didn’t say that I camp in the middle lane. I get frustrated by those who do. I just gave what I assume to be the logic used by people who do camp in the middle lane.
Go watch yourself masturbate in a mirror so you can give misery to someone who deserves it.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt's relative detained by ICEEnglish
442·1 month agoThe woman is Leavitt’s nephew’s mother but is estranged from her child. She has no real relationship to Leavitt.
The real story here is that she was a DACA kid with one arrest for battery, the legal outcome of which is unclear. Obviously “the worst of the worst”.
I didn’t say I do that. I’m the guy getting frustrated behind them. I also don’t go around calling strangers cunts you fucking asshole.
Edit: Oh, I see, from your comment history it seems that you’re just a miserable cunt yourself. Maybe go work on your people skills.
I think the logic is that they’re not in the left lane so there is room to go around, and they’re not in the right lane so they don’t need to work to manage merges every time there is an on-ramp. The middle lane is a safe middle-ground where you’re safe from most merges and where you shouldn’t annoy the faster traffic too much.
These are definitely not pigeons.

Can you imagine a world where abducting Trump wasn’t seen as an actor of war by just about everyone in the US? I wouldn’t be upset to see Trump hung as a traitor, but if Canada came in and abducted him, I’m fairly sure I’d see it as a breech of our sovereignty. I’d actually be pretty conflicted at that point…
