  • NOoo, not both!!! If we do that immediately, the episode will be over before Jeffrey Combs has even shown up.

  • I agree that they should use something sturdier. But do note that bricks won't survive entirely either. Brick walls can withstand the wind itself, but won't do well against large chunks of debree flying into them at significant speeds.

  • What is apart from it being rich white right-wing men? What is he saying here? Do they mean "a part", which completely changes the meaning of the sentence?

  • If an actor studies all data available on your grandma, manages to mimic her voice and looks, and then starts a conversation with you, acting as your grandma; are you then talking to a ghost? Cause that is what an AI does: learn to predict the behaviour of your grandma, and then act out those predictions.

  • I have barely any experience with raw gdb, but debugging is something that allows for a lot of contextual actions. Even just placing a breakpoint is simpler if you can click the line instead of copy-pasting the line number. But also evaluating expresssions while on a breakpoint, or a graph with an overview of all threads. I doubt these are straight-forward commands in gdb, and if they are, you need to figure out the exact parameters (like line number).

    Furthermore, I have tried raw gdb once, and got super confused as to what I was supposed to do or look at. Yet every IDE makes it trivial to use debuggers. Learning the options available to you is much easier in a well designed GUI.

  • GUIs just being front-ends for a CLI tool is a horrible idea. This is why most git GUIs fail so terribly. I have seen too many of those where all the buttons were just replacements for CLI calls. If it is just a front-end for a CLI, then why the heck not just use the CLI?

    A good git GUI has not been designed to just wrap the CLI. Instead, it works with the structure of git (commits, branches, tags, etc), and builds around those from the ground up. Only once the functionality has been designed should the question arise: What CLI commands do we need to implement this?

  • I remember using mumble in a time when smartphones weren't even a thing yet. Love to see the open source tool outlive everything else!

  • I fully agree. I also think it is a terrible way of improving the number of children. And they should focus on improving conditions for the poorest half of the population a lot more.

    But that doesn't mean I think the idea is so abhorent that I would be insulted by receiving the letter. (Ok, I personally would, but that is because I'm not a woman.) I'm fine with them sending the letter. Heck, pointing out free healthcare options is great! By all means: let women know what their options are.

  • Do you not want to be notified about free healthcare options available to you? Because if you ignore the ragebait headline and filter the article for its rage potential, the following quote explains it pretty nicely:

    "The letter is being sent to 29-year-olds because women are able to have their eggs frozen at that age without a medical certificate. Women will also be reminded that social security in France covers the cost of freezing eggs for women between 29 and 37. "

    So woman are being told how to keep the option for kids open for longer. That is quite the opposite of pressuring them into anything if you ask me.

  • I'd argue that it may not happen for individuals. But our DNA? Our culture? Or knowledge? I'm pretty sure these things will travel the stars one day.

  • Don't forget to slow blink at the kitty and look away for a bit every now and then.

  • The Dutch royal family has exactly one job: poster child. So, yeah. That is literally the idea here. Unify by setting an example.

  • Since google is blocked, google maps is also blocked. Hence, make sure to have a good alternative available. Bing maps, Apple maps, or OSM.

  • My guess is that he is a DnD player that has to flash out the background of his character, so the DM can start using characters from his background.

  • With Dirt Rally, you get a pretty damn good simulation experience for a fraction of the cost, a minimal time investment, and zero of the risks. All you need is a PC and a decent steeringwheel.

  • I started dancing 2 years ago in my early 30s. Salsa/bachata specifically. Never danced a step before then (or at least: not while sober). After a 2 years of practise, I now regularly get compliments at the festivals/parties, and the ladies at the dance school like it when I'm joining the lessons, since I can lead well. I'm still no expert, but I certainly get a lot of joy from it. And for the record: I'm a slightly overweight nerd who is certainly not nimble or agile. I also hate rythm games, I suck at those, but dancing on the beat is so much easier!

    My point is: it's worth trying. Find a dance school that teaches salsa and/or bachata, and go for it. If you find the right people, you will stay motivated, and it gets more and more fun!

  • There is one conversion that I use every now and then: liter to kilo: A liter of water weighs about a kilo.

    Helpful to compare groceries when some products use weight and others volume. For example, I can buy 1kg buckets of yoghurt. I then know that those buckets hold about 1 liter. Handy when re-using the buckets.

  • He has been prime minister for long enough to know exactly how little the European leaders will care about his Trump appeasements.

    I still think that Rutte is the perfect guy for this role, now that we have to deal with Trump. Able to change position while shrugging of any hypocrasy, as slimy as your steriotypical politician, and plenty of experience.

  • To be fair, joining the Russian army does make planning the rest of your life a lot easier.
