Right so you’re an expert negotiator that thinks you should never ever ask for more than you think you’ll get because you’re afraid some people on the internet will write that you have “childish rhetoric and illogical manurisms[sic]”?

Ukraine is currently using ATACMS rockets to soften up Russia’s air defenses in preparation for using the F-16s that’ll soon be arriving. It seems the “childish rhetoric” is working. I guess Zelenskyy will just have to accept that people that can’t even spell his name might think less of him. Oh well…

Yeah it sucks how the AP is exposing you to the reality of how women are oppressed in Afghanistan, even at the post office. The story about the post office (which actually does link to to an article about the sanctions BTW) should be focused on how evil the US is, of course! It should never ever mention that women are required to be completely covered to be able to use the postal service. We don’t want people to know about that!

Trustbusting would be a solution, but people gotta get behind it. Guess which guy running for President is moving in that direction? Hint: it’s not the billionaire.

Every day I feel more and more like this LOTR shot:

They even put a “Github CoPilot” button to Visual Studio FFS. Fortunately they at least added an option in the config, which unlike most UI elements in VS requires a restart. But at least it can be removed I guess.

Didn’t think MS would enshittify VS because “Developers! Developers! Developers!” but here we are.

Yeah I was expecting Legal Eagle to put out a video outlining what a President can and can’t be prosecuted for. Instead it was “we’re fucked.”

And cocaine… in fact forget about the potatoes, beans, and apples.

Of course it’s not a certainty but there is a significant probability. And that probability increased with the supreme court ruling granting blanket immunity.

Trump is a criminal, and SCOTUS just declared that nothing he does is a crime if he’s President. There are many scenarios where things get violent, he orders the military to do crazy shit and part of the military wants to follow his order while another part refuses.

The world is changed: I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, I smell it in the air… Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it. Thusly the government of Gondor shall not excise a tax upon my pouch of gold for their statutes shall not apply to my person henceforth.

WWII was technically a nuclear war. So yes, a nuclear war is winnable, if only one side has nuclear weapons.

But anyway this guy is an idiot. A nuclear strike on Iran would still be stupid even when they don’t have nuclear weapons (yet).

For some reason I’m picturing the elves as white trash sovereign citizen types refusing to pay their taxes.

As they fade away… “The flag of Gondor doesn’t have a gold fringe on it and you didn’t write my name in all capitals at a 45 degree angle in red ink therefore this court doesn’t have the authority to…” poof!

Yeah it’s just being angry about the fact that the Earth is rotating ball. Wanting to abolish timezones is different from Flat Earth only be degrees.

Sure the “what time is it there?” question goes away, but it’s replaced by “what are your business hours?”

Ultimately it will be daytime in one part of the world while it’s night in another part of the world. That will always cause problems.

This is actually the best approach.

Obviously they are getting timezone information otherwise the app could only display whatever time the user entered in.

If you want to sort things by the actual time, it’s simple and performant if all of the times are in the same timezone, and UTC would be the standard one to use. Pushing the timezone calculations to the client makes sense because the UTC time is correct, it’s just a matter of displaying it in a user friendly way, ie. show the time in the user’s timezone.

It can be more than superficial. If you’re restoring files from your old PC to your new one, it could make a mess of things if the user account is in a different path. Probably not a lot of people write scripts for their windows PC, but those could break.

Sure it would be a janky restore or janky script if it was explicitly specifying the path of the home directory instead of the environment variable. But environment variables have been janky in the past on windows, so it’s best to just keep the paths as consistent as possible when migrating to a new system.

Kinda shit they just wouldn’t prompt you for what you want your home director called tho.

Also, LOL at your email address.

Yeah if it were about security they’d check the version of HTTPS, SSL, TLS and all that stuff.

Critical thinking isn’t exactly your strong suit, is it?

Ah, so you’ve got a mental block about October 7. Got it.

Gonna keep on disregarding any fact or logic that conflicts with the narrative, huh?

What about Brawndo? It’s got electrolytes!

Another day, another thing for you to rage over, right? Gotta maintain that outrage or you might think about how horrible Hamas is.
