Do you think sex and gender are the same thing?

TUIs are very in right now. Nostalgia/vintage-computin-aesthetics & guru-gatekeeping around command line savviness are front and centre in the HN-and-adjacent mindshare.

Is the Israeli intelligence facial recognition system in the room with us now?

/s?

The only comic worse is Garfield. I have no idea how anyone enjoys either of them.

Yep my electronics engineer dad was like "you cannot do this" but it worked! He got me to put an aligator clip wire from case to case so the grounding would at least be joined?

What?

Yes, agreed.

At this point I have seen many fantastical interpretations of what happened there. I assume popular US media coverage of it was a contributor there.

Are you referring to the "Freedom Convoy"?

Are you hinting at the lack of an `AsyncLock` in .NET?

Agreed. How can a media file sharing app possibly saturate Sqlite's write limit? I would use an app-level global lock on all writes to Sqlite.

Yep same experience here. And I'm in one of my city's most walkable neighborhoods.

Space War was great! Briefly in high school a few of my friends and I all had Palm OS devices.

I taught myself to crack palm apps and games, and with Space War I modified the strength of my ship. The IR multiplayer had no validation of parameters so I pranked my friends in an IR multiplayer match by one-shotting them all and zooming across the whole map in one turn! Great times.

IMO this project kneecapped itself by being web-focused.

"One day, everyone will have always been against this"

Is there any difference between indulgent revenge and righteous anger? Are they not just descriptions of the same thing from either side of a conflict?

Nope, same in Toronto. Same everywhere I've been. Drivers all mentally turn into teenagers when it comes to anything to do with driving/parking. I'm very pro traffic and parking enforcement.

People who think it's acceptable to bomb civilian residential areas flat because they're "booby trapped" are lost souls.

Yep. It really is that simple.

But doesn't Google serve a different font depending on the User Agent string? IIRC, it serves fonts based on your OS and browser so that differences in rendering implementations are corrected for.

Were they though? Or, was that a single, unverified bulletin put out by one cop?

The engravings have nothing to do with "transgender and antifa ideology". They are all "online" troll phrases/codes.

EDIT: The ATF has apparently subpoenaed Steven Crowder for posting the claim you are referring to: https://x.com/scrowder/status/1966236010381193388

I'm also Canadian. Your interpretation of Kirk's "mission" is curious.

To the rest of us, his "open discussion" was clearly and obviously rhetorical. The public performances that made him famous were undoubtedly designed specifically to incite college students into making clumsy arguments they weren't prepared for. Not only is that bad faith and predatory in the context of political debate, but Steven Crowder came up with that schtick.

Blaming democrats/liberals for his death is also curious. Could you expand on how you're so sure about that? As far as I know, no suspect nor motive is known at this time.

Yes. This is the flaw in Jellyfin that makes it a non-starter for me. One time I spent like two hours updating all the metadata, and then some strangely worded button reset it all. Haven't used it since.

The first one was built to connect two of the same company's department stores (Eaton's, now defuct, but once an iconic Canadian chain).

It's my understanding that underground walkways were created for motorists, not for pedestrians. To get pedestrians out of the way of motorists. An important distinction for understanding the effect car lobbies had on much of the world's urban development.

I'm pretty sure you only need the OfType call. It filters out nulls already.

Use Linux if you don't need any mainstream applications, nor reliable sleep/wake, audio, wifi, etc.

Otherwise, get the whatever's the cheapest MacBook Air or Mac Mini and move on with your life.

You'll hear about subsidies in day two of learning about economics.

Quick question: what are Arabs who live in Israel called?
