No maps on the web page. 90% of my maps usage is quashed.

Windows 10 is ending support in October, prevent e-waste, switch to Linux

Please, without the comma splice.

There was no TV in Ur.

You're referencing some rando uttering a word and claiming that its early use makes it valid, like people were perfect speakers back then?

Who's the prescriptivist now?

I know someone with a master's degree from university.

Well, he cut me a golden master copy of the track, anyway.

I don’t plan to be living over the next few centuries or millennia.

It's hard to read this without hearing a "I got mine, so f everyone after me" in it. When you talk about this with your friends, maybe consider rephrasing it?

There's no right answer.

By that, I mean everyone dies with regrets: regrets about living too wildly, regrets about living too conservatively, having kids, not having kids, missing out on an opportunity, or risking too much.

You're going to reach the end of your life and believe it's unfinished, it seems.

I have no advice. Make the best choice at the moment, with all you know at the time, and then forgive yourself for it, I guess.

ideally I would ideally avoid Google, maybe a Graphene or Fairphone but they are still Android forks.

You fear android, so you'll stick to apple? Mate, please consider what you're saying and, more importantly, where that comes from.

Stupid? No. Just selfish in enough numbers that progress is stymied.

You can create an LXC container and have it booted to a shell in under a minute

Rhel5 on a VM booted in under a minute easily. Rhel6 on a VM booted in around a minute. Rhel7 on a VM booted in almost a minute, and the trend accelerated from there. Wow, is RhelX a piece for its frail-boat booting.

The key is the monolith.

ime these helper scripts are legit.

Let's consider a moment the risk you're subjecting people to, just with a recommendation based on the value of the things you secure without considering what they need to secure.

Curl-bash pipes are a security mess.

Security mess? Red flag. Avoid.

This poor man has been indoctrinated for 40+ years. I'm not sure if we can properly re-integrate him into society without first forcing him to live in Winnipeg for a while and learn more about the perils of cruel conservatism. And there's a chance they'll just continue indoctrinating him to where he's waving nazi flags and parking his dodge truck in downtown ottawa and setting fires in mail-slots.

It's gonna be very tricky, de-toxing this cult member.

I'm already worried, just because of the medium.

Seems sketchy

DOUBLE REVERSE TARIFFS.

And 1% permanent tariff every time he does this shit.

Comp Sci. Slow peers. Droning profs. All day. It could have been hell.

4 colours of easy writing pens and a cover story about taking notes for someone else and there I was, taking notes in 4 colours for easy review and just enough arbitrary framework to keep me distracted.

the player.

This was a shop.

We picking favourite features? Let's talk about headphone jacks. Make it .3mm thicker if all that volume can be consolidated on the header jack they ditched because apparently it can't fit and wasn't feeding their radio earbud business enough.

they engineer a solution that they believe to be a smoother user experience

You had me until this bit. I support my mom and the iPhone she got instead of an android. I have no idea how to use this thing, and she's the mother of 2.5 nerds. This swishy swoopy UI is so bad it's toxic.

But I think that's just a young and sparkle-addicted product management team who forgets that they need to sell to their market and who believe they know better.
