Yeah man, that Thomas Jefferson guy was a real unhinged fuckwad.

What country before ever existed a century & a half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

Most people with jobs do have to open office documents frequently.

I work in IT and hit Spam on everything I perceive as spam.

Poison all the data and fuck spammers straight to hell, tyvm.

A few versions ago they removed the ability to tear a tab out of the IDE to have it open separately.

WTF why? Do XCode devs not use their own product or something???

That’s…worse in a lot of ways. Mercury compounds are way way fucking bad and are even more dangerous than “just” straight elemental mercury.

Typically as a vapor, even. And it has a fairly low vapor pressure for a liquid. Not even that much vapor is needed.

It’s an immense amount of liquid mercury - especially since it probably had organic compounds in it too. Bioavailable mercury is truly fucked stuff, and those responsible for this should live the rest of their lives in a chemical shed.

“We gotta cool the oceans down, that’s why I support nuking them!”

-Coming soon from the party that suggested nuking hurricanes

Japan is almost uniquely bad though. A super aged population and a society that values conformance over anything else results in agonizingly slow and absurd government reactions.

They need 4 committee meetings each morning just to drink tea: one for to pick the teams, one team meeting to pick the tea, and another team meeting to pick the cup. There’s a final meeting at the end to discuss the costs associated with the tea and how to more properly distribute it according to rank and social standing, as one does.

They don’t need to sell to realize gains - they take out loans against the stock value from banks for almost no interest. If they choose to, they could get large amounts of that paper gain in liquid cash through just a handful of steps.

Squeeze the existing users for cash.

The enterprises will just pay it. It’ll be cheaper than a migration for critical servers.

Corps pull the same gameplay each time:

1. Buy product
2. Jack prices to the roof
3. Kill R&D and enshittify support to minimize cost
4. Extract profit until other products make a higher profit margin
5. Shutdown support and repeat with a new product

Call him special for even entertaining a 1.5GB XLS file as a real option for anything.

That’s totally nuts. Normalize the data and use Access if you have absolutely no other options - or use SQL Server Express if you want to be cheap about it and stay in the MSFT ecosystem.

Not in California - in LA they get $17/hr + tips.

The biggest advocates for tipping culture are the restaurant workers - if they were paid commensurately they’d lose money since it’d be all taxable. And we all know that tipped employees all definitely mark the accurate amount of cash tips received on their taxes each year…

Dude that’s not an Xbox controller, it’s a Logitech third party you’d have fights over your buddies with to not have to use.

Also, Xbox controllers are not used where people’s lives are at risk. Periscopes, drones, etc. but they’re not using them as primary controls on human manned craft.

You take that back! Camper World is a hallmark of quality, I bought all my kidney extraction equipment from there!
