  • You should consider wet wipes. They are a total game changer, if a bidet is not an option. When you think the worst is gone, use one (1). Then dry with normal paper afterwards. It’s great.

    Don’t flush them before making absolutely, 100% shure they decompose tho! If you can’t easily tear them with your hands, no matter what the packaging says, they will fuck up your plumbing. This can get really expensive, so when in doubt, use a trash can.















  • I would want Windows 11 if it wasn’t a total privacy nightmare. I have been a Windows user for a long time, but MS scared me away the moment the started requiring online accounts. Half my life is on my computer, they can fuck right off with that. Windows is generally pretty good for work computers, but I rather take my private business elsewhere




  • The thing is, much of the new stuff is intended to replace old stuff. Modern C++ is a completely different experience than old C++ - actually a much better one imo. But then there are two problems which make things messy:

    1. Lagacy code, where introducing new concepts without updating the older parts increases complexity.
    2. People who don’t know or don’t care and just copy-paste whatever, mixing styles and standards.

    In both cases, you end up needing to know how to do things the new way and the old way, while one of which would be sufficient.

    There are exceptions of course (try{ pun(); }catch(const NotFunnyException& err){ return NOT_INTENDED;}).
