I was hoping this would be about people acting out janky NPC animations in real life.

Is it possible to get the Chrome OS version one of these with a super/win key like on the standard version?

Snowden is stuck in a lose-lose position. Do you choose to go behind bars or do you embrace the hypocrisy in the hope that you can still do some good?

This is the interpretation I choose to believe, until I see any proof to the contrary. Ultimately his whistle-blowing was a good thing.

Imagine being the Twitter executive that signed Vine's death warrant.

never trust anyone who writes notes on taking notes

maybe the boss can meditate on sending more productive messages instead.

why does everything have to be a fault within me?

Not paying for my shitty media addiction is the last desperate petty act of rebellion I can do.

Clippy was just ahead of his time. Interruptions are the norm now.

Why is that a bannable offense?

React is the Unix of the web, huh.

Another great American brand reduced to a logo on a crappy Android tablet.

Semi-related, but it seems like getting railroad transport would require good metals, so it couldn't really happen before it did in reality. But I wonder if something like telegraph or radio could exist with more primitive materials?

Putting up appearances and wearing masks (metaphorically) is daunting to me, so WFH has been a blessing. Maybe there's just something wrong with me when everyone is shouting that they want to go back and drag me back as well.

You send them a full on mini-vim implementation in Rust that uses ropes and then they just look at you disapprovingly because you didn't just tie together a dozen npm packages.

4chan speak in longer articles is cringe

Windows Phone was quite good, but Microsoft had a terrible case of chronically fucking everything up.

They made everyone buy new phones for Windows Phone 8, which did not have any user-visible changes (though it did switch the OS to NT).

They took multiple years to add basic functionality like a notification center, and by the time they did, it was too late.

They actually shot themselves in the foot and had extremely poor Office support - behind even the competitor platforms that got a proper set of apps.

They bought Nokia's phone business and then just gave up completely.

What's a shame. I liked the minimalist Zune-like UI - it was perfect for a phone. And it just looked cool.

How well central planning could work with all the computational power we now have is still an open question. Too bad there doesn't seem to be a good way to explore it without also falling to panopticon levels of social control even faster than we currently are.

I think I could make do with a self-hosted instance of https://vscode.dev on a local machine that I could browse to from my phone. I wonder if that's something that exists...

Concurrent map is actually cool.

Because it's FUN

Now I'm curious if it's possible to boot up 10.6 or 10.9 on new hardware.

I like silly artisan business cards. It would certainly be cool for them to survive if only for the demo scene aspect:

You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

I think ensuring access to proper medical care is the correct way to remove the need to self-medicate.

Hopefully one day the kids will be able to get the care they need without having to bypass the medical system or hide things from their family. Until then, they get to be biopunk.

Note how nobody actually does any work.

TL;DR: Just Do It

DIY estrogen is the most hacker thing I've seen on this website (called Hacker News) for months.

Did somebody post a link to HN on that site or something?
