I mean, he’s not wrong (historically), but that doesn’t mean we have to tolerate it either. We (as a species, a civilization, the royal we) can be better. He just doesn’t want us to be.
Nope. Just so that you don’t starve in a crisis. Grass tastes gross. ;)
Humanitarian crisis for sure.
Tangent. If I was a mad genetic scientist with no ethics, there are a few things I’d do – engineering a virus to deliver a few “software patches” to our DNA. One of those things would be to engineer the production of cellulase as an enzyme in our digestive system – so we can get energy from grass and such in an emergency. Probably the Law of Unintended Consequences will make this worse for humanity somehow (Begun the Grass Wars have!). Mosquitos also get blood sucking removed, in an attempt to make them purely pollinating insects. Vote for Troy as mad scientist!
Won’t help the hungry in Sudan now, though. So I’m open to better ideas. Sadly, I largely have bad ideas. If I’m on the side of full external military intervention, it would be considered “colonial”. It’s hard to propose any solution that isn’t just “send aid” – and you don’t want to do that because it gets seized by the parties involved to support their conflict. Do we just watch it play out and accept refugees? That’s lame – how many millions will die in each of the above scenarios. Fuck.
No one commenting on your playlist? You’re cathartic music experience is showing :)
Not after reading their comment history.
All people who think porn is bad are bad. They are projecting their own unhealthy suppressed sexualities onto others because of the shame they associate with their own sexuality

Thus I am concluding you are pro Russian and taking all opportunities to block all porn starring Ukranians. Which will be basically every site on the internet. A pity, since you seem to like it a lot.
NSFW, but the next obvious thing to do is…
Fourth panel. AI trained on all the above, floods it all with generated content rendering the signal-to-noise ratio too terrible to tolerate, even for corporations.
Oh hell no. I can’t stand java paradigms haha. Only ever had to write one production java program and that was enough. Wish them luck though – the rising tide floats all boats and such, particularly in open source :)
Building a toolkit from first principles is fun, I’ll admit.
I toyed with using libxcb and ctypes to make a pure python GUI toolkit once. Got as far as rendering on a screen and and event loop. Then got bored when I realized how much work it was going to be. I suppose someone could do the same with libwayland :)
I may have been born under a rock, but does Qt have java capabilities? Wonder why GTK is listed but not Qt. Unless I’m like two decades out of the loop, which is possible :)
I spent an hour today trying to find a real source for this quote, often misattributed to Churchill. And failed. Found some sources saying it predates Churchill, but no direct references. Seems an adage that is quite old though.
Out of curiosity, how is this ratio relative to some place like North Korea?
We called it “Beetle Bump” but same thing.
After the release of the redesign, it sort of stopped. Only really made sense for the classic version.
“The Transporter Refueled”. Living in a smaller city in Northern Canada with three screens… We had a Tuesday night cheap movie night group that would go to whatever was playing, then to the pub afterwards. Small city – something to do. We had seen a lot of bad movies as a result, but this was the worst. At the end of the movie, everyone had left except our small group. We’re masochists, apparently.
Easier to infiltrate terrorist networks – networks are, well, networks. Most school shootings are independent actors, even if radicalized online.
Now, if you’re asking about why they haven’t implemented decent gun control laws…
Just make it ridiculous. Like instructions to get an artifact that will resurrect you from a museum in France… Then if it goes off by accident, it is comedy.
Network interruption would cause it to run then. Or an API change. Dangerously causing it to actually run.
Somehow they passed though, right?
