audible C++ programmer disgust

It’s not uncommon to see people expressing disdain for other distros. I feel like it’s tongue in cheek 99% of the time though

Obviously this is because of Marxist professors or whatever it was Elon said and not at all because conservatives seemingly saw the handmaid’s tale and decided that it was an instructions manual

When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, “I WANT A REMATCH.”

Sounds like he was this close 🤏 to realizing that politics isn’t sports nor entertainment there… Although to be fair, his base certainly seems to treat it that way

I mean, considering how some of them can struggle with ice cubes, you’d need one hell of a (consumer grade) blender to effectively get rid of a body

We have one at work (office cats ftw). I don’t know the model, but knowing the owner I’m positive they didn’t get a cheapo version. In this case it’s worth the money because it does a fairly good job at mixing the litter which seems to help quite a lot with the smell (it gets noticeably better a few minutes after it’s done its thing), since no one is gonna empty it during the day.

At the end of the day they’re just glyphs though. Maybe letters in a clockwise alphabetical order is the most intuitive for someone who has never used a controller before, but I’ve never seen anyone complain about the PS buttons layout after the initial “where the fuck is triangle” phase… except for that Japanese standard where X is “cancel” and O is “confirm”… because they deviate from what we are used to (and actually mimick the Nintendo layout regarding A and B placement, interestingly enough)

It’s only wrong because the Xbox controller is more ubiquitous than Nintendo’s controllers and thus became the new standard. As someone who also grew up on Nintendo consoles, I remember it took me a while to adapt to it, but since I shifted towards PC gaming it became my new standard too

This is gonna make a lot of Europeans mad.

Source : am french. I love me some Americano, but the default here is the espresso. You can also get a “long espresso” which is basically a diluted espresso, and is still not the same as an Americano (and this is where my coffee knowledge stops, so I’m not sure what the differences are exactly). I also have some Italian family and they would probably disown me if I said that the Americano is the “default” black coffee

So-called risks taking executives/business people when they could take a risk to benefit their employees without hurting their bottom line (and possibly even increasing it):

legally mandated one day off

As a french : what the fuck, Japan ?

Wait there’s a free and easy GitHub script ? I bought an OEM key for 2 bucks like a sucker

Yeah last time I saw a map of the internet cables it looked like there was quite a lot of redundancy so I’m not convinced they could pull it off fully to be honest.

I don’t understand, why did you post a random picture of some pavement ?

Well, the bishop is called the “fou” which literally translates to mad/insane, but iirc it’s a recent name

I would pay money to see daddy Linus flip off some big shot intelligence official

What, are they involved in a war with Russia or something ?

Wiedervereinigung

Yeah they usually have the most dramatic impact on games that have bad CPU optimization, which is a lot of them tbh

I think the 5700x3d is the first one they made, iirc it outperformed even the high end CPUs from the next generation in quite a few benchmarks, but probably not the 7000 gen. If you want to keep the possibility of upgrading, I would advise against the 5700x3d because that’s basically already the best for this socket. By all accounts it’s great value for its price though.

You should try to go for a Ryzen “3D” variant with extra cache if you can spare the extra money, it works wonders on some games. I’ve had no issues with mine (7900x3d) so far on Linux
