Similar to Florida?

Well. I think I’m officially out of touch with the newest generations slang terms. I only understood about half of that.

I’ve worked in IT for most of my career. I’ve seen some shit. I’m on the older side of “millennial”. Not old enough to be on the cusp, but almost immediate after. I have had computers as a part of my life since I was young enough to remember, starting with a 286/386 that my dad used at home.

One thing I’ve noticed is that most companies shit doesn’t stink. What I mean by that is that all of them, to some extent, hide, cover up, or otherwise deny that their product has any issues whatsoever. I did a lot of VMware training back in the day, there were good reasons for that, but I won’t get into it … anyways, all of their training was about how it’s supposed to work. There’s zero material about what to do when it doesn’t work like it is supposed to… Even “troubleshooting” courses are designed to help you fix the configuration of the system using only methods sanctioned by the company, because any fault or flaw in their product must be because you aren’t using it right, or you simply don’t know how.

I’ve known so many millennials, especially in the tech space, that had to fix their own problems because the product, and the company that made it, believes that their shit doesn’t stink. There’s nothing wrong with their product, you either don’t know how to use it, or you aren’t using it correctly,

Meanwhile, here in reality, all their shit sucks to all fuck, and their product is little more than hour garbage.

Yay?

Same.

Such a good jam.

A small but important distinction.

Thank you for the information. Have a good day.

Thanks for the ad hominem response.

I will take your comments under advisement exactly as much as I have respect for your opinion.

Have a good day.

AFAIK: Gentoo used to be just source repos, but times have changed. Gentoo repos now have binaries. You can opt out of them, so it’s up to you.

With binaries, it works like any other distro. Download the updated binaries, install, done.

If you go from source, then it will download all the source code, and do the whole makefile thing, and install the new binaries when the compile is done, every time you do an update.

So the direct answer to your question is: it depends. If you’re compiling everything then yes, you need to recompile everything that is updated. If you’re going to opt for binaries in the package manager, then no.

Was Valentine’s recently?

Time has lost all meaning

As a person who did this for a job in my youth, may I first say, fuck you and the horse you rode in on.

As a worker, collecting stray carts that people left around the parking lot ate up the most time and was the least productive time I’ve ever spent while working. Also, at the store I worked at was fairly popular, on busy days, just collecting carts from the corrales took up enough time that I didn’t really have time left over to make up for you being a lazy asshole.

As a consumer, I put away other people’s stray carts, not only for the reasons above but because I don’t want the cart demon to direct the carts into my car and cause it any damage. I also don’t want my discarded cart to end up causing damage to anyone else’s car. So fuck you for creating an easily avoidable problem that has the potential to damage my property. You suck.

Objectively, returning your cart is the correct, and proper path to take. However, nobody will arrest you, or fine you for not doing it. It is purely voluntary, but universally recognized as the right thing to do. Since you do not do it, what does that mean about you as a person? I think it means you’re a dickhead.

Stop being selfish and lazy, then justifying it with “someone gets paid to do that”. No, that’s not the reason. The reason is that you’re a terrible person, an asshole, and a dickhead.

So I reiterate: fuck you, and the horse you rode in on.

I’m not American, but it seems to me, that to get to where you currently are, the legislative branch probably needed to be already busted.

This just shines a spotlight on how busted.

This is exactly the first thing that comes to mind. There’s surely a large number of average people, who don’t care or have any interest in what Elon has been doing, or anything else…

People who can’t readily afford to just throw away a vehicle because the owner of the company is a shithead.

But yeah. Fuck cyber trucks. Never liked those eyesores anyways

I saw the writing on the wall when Tesla actively worked against people attempting to repair their vehicles. They wouldn’t sell parts for a long time.

They made it into a walled garden. If you owned an EV, you fit into one of two categories: Tesla owners, and everyone else.

IMO, they thought that since they were the only game in town for a while, and have been the largest player in the EV space, they can do whatever they want. Over time, that has not worked out in their favor.

Every product they have must be tracked and traced to a user account. There’s no way to own/operate a Tesla without an account… Mostly. And because of this, I’ve been heard saying that, I like the technology and on average, the vehicles Tesla makes, but I don’t like the company, or their business practices, so I would probably never own one.

The only practical way to get by is to hack the software in the vehicle, and to me, that really shouldn’t be necessary. But it is. They’re worse than John Deere in my books.

I’m any case, I generally don’t support vandalism, especially when it’s in the realm of “destruction of property”. The people who bought the cars could be victims all the same, so I don’t want to presume that someone has the means to just throw out a $100k+ vehicle because the owner of the company that made it is a tosser.

No. I more feel sympathy for those folks. They didn’t ask for this. They’re not necessarily guilty of anything simply because they own/drive a Tesla.

You have the freedom to decide, you do not have the freedom from the consequences on your decisions.

I feel like this is obvious.

Honestly, I don’t give a shit if I have to work for that security, but the job markets have gone to absolute garbage. Nobody has a lifetime career at a single employer anymore. Employers don’t do raises, and just rinse through the entire employable workforce with no care in the world because there’s always some bright eyed college grad willing to take the job for less than the person who has it now, so raises don’t serve companies. Long term experience and knowledge is both highly desirable, and completely worthless.

If you’re trying to get a job for anything beyond entry level, you must have years and years of experience with the specific products and software that company uses to manage their company. Experience you could only have if you’ve worked there before.

Entry level positions have wages so low it’s barely better than working at McDonald’s.

The world is fucked.

No.

I think it’s a modification of “360 noscope” which is a gaming term for an unexpected change in a game stemming from fps games like counter strike. The term basically relates to a high skill/high luck shot usually involving a quick rotation and/or flick shot, where you didn’t use the scope of the weapon to help improve accuracy, but made the shot anyways.

Basically saying it was a highly unlikely outcome…

The “nopost” which replaces “noscope” is probably their way of referencing the above while making it relevant to the context (a post).

I’ll admit, the words, taken at face value, do not make a lot of sense. The entire thing relies on a general understanding of the 360 noscope meme.

That’s a trait of mine, to look at situations from different perspectives, not just mine, or what “I would do” or what I want to see happen.

I’m a long time observer of people, and the most fascinating thing to try to understand is why. It’s impossible to know someone’s true motivations for doing something but most of the time you can reach a pretty good guess if you have enough of a picture of what’s going on with them.

I don’t mind downvotes. I don’t hate what Luigi did, and I appreciate that he probably didn’t feel like he had another course of action, at the same time, I try to understand and be sympathetic regarding anyone else Luigi may have come into contact with.

We’re all living a life, everyone’s life is a complex, interconnected mess of happenstance.

Actually, that’s a typo. I intended to put left leaning, I thought I put left leaning, and reading it back a moment before seeing your comment, I noticed the error.

Whoops. My bad.

I couldn’t give less of a fuck what his political ideologies are.

It never even crossed my mind he was on the right nor that he would be on the left.

I will say, doing something for the greater good is a very leftist ideology, however doing something out of anger and vengeance would be more universal. Regardless of motivation, the thing he accomplished will (hopefully) be something that inspires change, specifically in regards to healthcare in the USA.

I’m not an American, and your healthcare, or lack thereof, isn’t really my problem. That being said, I’m more left leaning, and I believe in social programs (like healthcare for all). I have government healthcare where I am and as someone on the lower end of the “economic ladder” let me tell you, it’s pretty great. Sure, I might have to wait longer for some procedures, but if I’m upset about that, I can go to my GP and have my feelings checked… for free.
