  • My mom found my great-grandfather's discharge paper from the US army. It's 107 years old.

  • In this case christian name is a synonym for given name. I bet if someone was baptised with a name that doesn't match their legal given name it would be the wrong choice in this context.

  • even Fry can figure this one out

  • The "funny" thing is that the conflict in the movie has elements from a bunch of real world conflicts baked into it. Except for the Americans being allied with the aggressors it's closer to being an exaggerated version of the Yugoslavian wars in Bosnia and Kosovo, especially since "borovian" is just a bastardized version of serbo-croatian, and I also see some Darfur inspired details. But the shoe seems to have fit into just one foot.

  • That is not dead which can eternal lie.

    Though HP's disturbed mind couldn't ever come up with something as upsetting as the average PHP application's codebase.

  • Tulsi Gabbard calls for Obama to be prosecuted over 2016 election claims

    Jump

  • Even if this conspiracy theory was even remotely true, and not a distraction to protect the pedophile-in-chief, wouldn't Obama have immunity for everything he did as president based on Trump's precedent?

  • Microsoft Office is using an artificially complex XML schema as a lock-in tool

    Jump

  • They are suggesting Microsoft should use their own standards in a way that doesn't require a bug for bug reimplementation of MS Office to read.

  • Riker: Target Aquired

  • No other terapist wants to deal with the BS that goes on the Enterprise. Remember no one is actually required to work, so the leverage to force an assignment is not that great.

  • Has to be 16 characters, #s, Cap and lower case.

    Jump

  • "Shouldn't" and "won't" are too very different words. There are plenty of shitty programmers out there, and they tend to band together. And now you have vibe coders on top.

  • And as a bonus, when a few of them leak, hackers will have a little puzzle to solve. Hackers love puzzles.

  • This comic hung in my office for years

  • Journalists are not the source of the claim that LLMs are the path to AGI.

  • American coca cola tastes vile even if you drink it once in your life.

  • They are hoping people are going to be afraid of being caught with one. (yeah, idiots)

  • Because the manufacturer and seller are in China and they want to make an example out of someone?

  • When A Good Show Has A Bad Ending

    Jump

  • There are several types of journey.

    If you set to walk around the park aimlessly, then sure, destination doesn't matter. And plenty of fiction is built like this.

    If you set out to climp the Everest, keep talking about the summit, and then end up falling off a cliff and breaking your neck midway, the journey was a fiasco.

  • Different mains voltage. Europe Most of the world uses 240v and the US 120v.

    The formula for power dissipation is P = V²/R where V is voltage and R is resistance. So electrical kettles take more time to boil water in the US.

  • EU eyes retaliatory tariffs against US aircraft, cars and bourbon

    Jump

  • Tariffs only apply to physical goods, not services. And tariffs are usually based on origin, not seller. The physical goods those produce don't come from the US, so they are mostly safe from tariffs. We need to have a digital service tax, but that should used to finance the digital commons (e.g. foss projects), not as a trade bargaining chip.

  • This is the kind of maddening magical experience you lose when you get an induction stove.

  • When A Good Show Has A Bad Ending

    Jump

  • Let's say you build a bridge. You build the nicest on-ramp, you put the nicest lamp posts, the nicest pavement, and the most beautiful railings in the history of bridges. And the bridge ends on a cliff. There might be some nice views on top of the bridge to nowhere, but it's a bridge to nowhere.

    That's a work of fiction with a bad ending. A work of fiction is a work, not a person, so where it leads to is very much an integral part of the work.

  • It takes a village...

    Jump

  • Conservatives also say it, it's just that their village is a church, a coal mine, and convenience store that accepts company scrip.

  • Two-thirds of the DOJ unit defending Trump policies in court have quit

  • FFS. If you are in this situation don't quit. Refuse to follow illegal orders until you are fired.
