Yea. I’m sure they will be humbled like the people of North Korea, who think their supernatural leader invented hamburgers and the electric guitar.

Step on the gas.
…O…O…O…X…

After his own offer to rescue the children was turned down

Windows started life as a window manager that you installed on top of MS-DOS. It has since grown to be much more, and I don’t think you can criticise it for that.

Also, changing the visual theme is their prerogative. They are not required to supply a “classic” theme, even though they did do that a bunch of times.

I get Lemmy is the bird around here, but if you’re going to bad mouth Windows, at least do it for the many legitimate problems it has.

Windows 8 was when MS were trying to break into the phone OS market to complete with Android and iOS. They wanted to have the “same OS” across phone, tablet, and desktop, which isn’t a terrible idea except for the fact you need to betray your entire desktop customer base to get there.

My favourite part of Linux cli is you only know you’ve done something when you get no feedback at all.

Sad story.

That’s enough money to have a good life and provide a good life to your loved ones. If he never finds it, he is a crazy man. If he finds it he is a smart man. A normal person can’t earn that much in a lifetime. Even a miniscule chance of finding it could drive someone to obsession.

For the sake of his sanity, and for a good story, I hope he finds it, but I doubt he will.

“unplugged nation” is certainly one way to describe what happened. The monkey very briefly became part of the electricity grid, is another.

Theoretically, yes, but I suspect the manufacturing quality of SD cards is a lot lower than SSDs

It’s probably some kids workshop assignment that he brought home to his parents.

Unless you are suggesting that actual election fraud took place, these guys got democratically elected.

From the outside it seems like this is what the majority of your voting public wanted, and the majority of your adult population were fine with it and chose not to vote. If it were the first time I would consider it as revealing a major flaw in your political system, but this is the second time, non consecutively, that this has happened. That just looks like this is representative of your people. Sorry.

I’m not kidding, one time I saw that and the first result was back to that thread where the only answer was to Google it.

They really should have used the word “static” instead of stable. Stable definitely has connotations of functional stability, and unstable of functional instability.

Aren’t they introduced as special effects artists in the intro of every episode?

The quote is misquoting the analogy. It is an infinite number of monkeys.

The point of the analogy is about randomness and infinity. Any page of gibberish is equally as likely as a word perfect page of Shakespeare given equal weighting to the entry if characters. There are factors introduced with the behaviours of monkeys and placement of keys, but I don’t think that is the point of the analogy.

Live forever or die trying

So there’s this chick named Eve…

It looks like a corroding bathroom mirror

I guess it means that no one here knows what Windows Debloated is and didn’t read far down enough to see regular windows marked as very easy to install.

Why wasn’t RSS as popular as the original Twitter?

I’m not sure what the answer is, but I suspect it’s the same answer.
