we’ll have to wait for Tim Sweeny to get his head out of his ass first.

You’ll be waiting a while.

First thing i thought of, but yeah, most devs today have never held a disk like that.

Bruh, what? Younger millennials (aka 30-40 yo) were born/raised in the 90’s. I find your claim hard to believe.

I’m in that group and I still dealt with floppies as a kid despite my family being poor at the time

Tbf, there’s saves there that efficiency increase means a lot

Technically true, but there’s a threshold on responsiveness. If both user interfaces respond in milliseconds, it doesn’t matter if one is more efficient

unoptimized code that does complex stuff.

You can still have complex code that is optimized for performance. You can spend more resources to do more complex computations and still be optimized so long as you’re not wasting processing power on pointless stuff.

For example, in some of my code I have to get a physics model within 0.001°. I don’t use that step size every loop, because that’d be stupid and wasteful. I start iterating with 1° until it overshoots the target, back off, reduce the step to 1/10, and loop through that logic until I get my result with the desired accuracy.

I love it

Maybe if Windows quit pigging out on tendies and slimmed down it would be as baf

Oh thank god.

I know commercial farming is usually terrible, but this bit just seems like a win

I know Valve recommends using the appimage above flatpak, but even that requires little to no tinkering

Once I turned 16, I would have a beer with my parents once or twice a month. Despite being in the US, in my state it’s legal for parents to give their kids alcohol, so it was no big deal.

Personally, I think it can be a fairly healthy introduction to alcohol, so long as the parents aren’t just giving their kids a 30-pack and letting them loose.

Never bothered with weed, I was never (and still not) interested

Maybe the TF2 Sniper had the right idea

This is just all the mossad agents embedded in the Iranian government

I also choose this guy’s skin suit

I didn’t have fascists scientifically proving that they’re cowards on my 2026 bingo card.

It’s still just as funny as the flat Earthers that keep accidentally proving that the Earth is round

I give it about 3 weeks until they put a different DRM in it

I would totally use a search engine called dogdog

Guillotining all the car lobbyists would work, but that’s frowned upon

because it’s nigh fucking impossible to get computers and humans to drive together safely. it’s almost like we need a new transportation revolution) will overhaul society.

Or we could just build a rail network and avoid the problem

I don’t see how having a motor to help you out and spending a few grand on a carbon fiber frame are much different.

Some people cycle as a sport, and races don’t let you have e-bikes. Plus, putting in all the work to climb a hill under your own power and getting to ride down is rewarding. Sure, getting a carbon fiber bike makes the work a bit lighter, but you’re still the one putting in all the work, which isn’t the case with e-bikes.

While the people in your example are failing to understand that people habe different motives for cycling, you’re doing the exact same thing here.

I could say the same to you. You’re the one who sent a link without checking if it was relevant to the conversation.

Most people would accept that they made a faux pas and quietly leave the thread. Instead, you decided to get defensive and snarky about it. Grow up.
