Yes but only in the used market. High performance luxury sedans have an audience but no one who's really in that niche buys new and it's still an older crowd (Gen-Xers mostly these days because they can afford used without crazy high mileage).

This is too generous considering none of these comments trigger an unrelated and subtly racist political response.

Jealous. I need this because I've been burned out for like a year doing bare minimum and overeating

Same. Also several months of medical leave for burnout sounds very generous.

An influencer, IMO, is no different from a talk show host, radio personality, or anyone who's livelihood depends on sponsored content. We've had models in advertising forever and famous people endorse products.

What's happening here is someone is getting famous outside of the traditional avenues of entertainment (radio, tv, sports, movies) through social media and getting the same sponsorship deals. They've just been given a bad name to lump them all together. I'm not a fan of the label "influencer" but I think it's nonsense to see them as a sign of societal decay. Societal change maybe, but its not dire IMO.

It must have been eight or nine years since you last checked.

This happens to me and I think it was a bug from a bios update to gigabyte motherboards. Haven't been able to suspend witbout a script for over a year.

I don't feel like driving a UPS truck gives me more time to myself. Between driving around all day with no AC and hitting the gym so that I can continue to lift and run around with mystery boxes I just don't see all this extra time materializing.

I like them when I don't have to leave home

About 80% of Henrik Lissner's fame is Doom Emacs. The other 20% is his Nix config that people clone and then show up in the doom discord asking why their computer won't log in anymore.

Good.

I got rejected and then when they inevitably called me up the next year the recruiter pulled up the feedback from my interview and I wasn't recommended because I rewrote a function to be easier to unit test, after being asked "how would you test this?". By rewrote I mean I added a parameter to take in a fictional db client, rather than instantiate directly.

I told her no thank you and hung up.

Because they tried to ban alcohol before and it didn't go too well.

Running `guix pull` and restarting the daemon should update guix to the latest given it's a rolling release.

Getting married and having a family as a stepping stone towards hedonism isn't the take I was expecting today but here we are.

And are taught to use sexualized terms like "mommy" or "daddy". It's honestly disgusting.

It's kind of enjoyable if you fast forward through the parts where they're doing mundane things in slow motion. Like picking up that key at the mountain.

Besides getting history wrong and eventually making a non-sensical point I'm pretty sure the author is going to point to this thread as some kind of gotcha to confirm their opinion.

I am and forever will be a fan of the scheme (and now clojure) convention of saying foo->bar to say foo to bar. I just think that's swell.

Interesting how most top level comments to this are using it as a jumping off point for various axes they have to grind ranging from the theoretical to the personal. But honestly it's to be expected in a positive article that didn't really leave room open to say anything negative about the subject.

I find it incredibly sad that he died at such a young age after his life's work was literally burned to the ground in a riot and before news could reach him of emancipation. For all of his accomplishments its really tragic that he did not live to see more of his work bear some fruit.

At least they write his name in the right order.

Well that's you, somebody else might want to use the subscription music service they pay for and use car controls to change the tracks, someone else might want a map that displays in the center console as opposed to their phone, etc etc. With android there's the possibility of adding apps that people would want to the car itself. This would be something device manufacturers could be interested in for dash cams or other electronics that could benefit from richer control interfaces.

Why would you do this to me I'm going to be in a rabbit hole trying to recreate this machine for the next two years. I've been in the hobby long enough that I only get excited about weird things like this keyboard that have historical significance.

This has been the case since the dawn of notifications and most choices by apps in general. They don't want you to say no. At least on iphone notifications aren't baked into features like play and pause buttons. Iirc on Android you only get media controls outside of the app if you enable notifications and then you have to fine tune them if all you want are media controls. I can't help but feel like that in itself is a darker pattern.

Not sure about you but my TikTok algorithm just shows anime hot takes, quick facts about world events, and a goat named Billy Earl who can't stay off of the neighbor's damn house.

If all you see are pranks and dances it's probably what you went on there looking for.

In 2006 SUSE was the KDE distribution. Unambiguously. While other distros had community editions that shipped KDE (as the article mentions) when you wanted KDE with no frills and everything working out of the box you used SUSE or OpenSUSE.

None of my teachers were Walter Gadsden and noine claimed to be the boy depicted in the statue.

The fact that you took the story of a photo and extrapolated it out to mean that anyone who said they were attacked by dogs is a fraud and are perpetuating a myth says a lot about you.

Also next time link a transcript to the episode than the actual episode when you want to use audio to prove you don't know what you're talking about.

Understood and I agree. I always feel like it's important to stress that when those protests happened the government's response (by way of the police force) was considered well within it's right, in support of your main point.

It's a quibble but an important quibble imo.

Something being legal or not isn't a difference of opinion, lmao.

The government acted legally. That was (and in a lot of cases still is) the problem. In fact most cities and local governments reserve the right to use hoses and dogs they just don't because it would be bad optics. As the saying goes "the more things change, the more they stay the same".
