Yeah, I can’t take any of those pundits (or Lemmings) seriously when they’re making those claims. It’s already a chaotic election, and that would introduce a whole new level of chaos 3 months before it. For the right wingers, it makes sense to be sowing that kind of chaos. For our side to be joining in is absolute insanity.

Also, the fantasy football comparison is spot on.

Like, Biden’s the incumbent and candidate. Deal with it. If he’s unable to perform his duties for whatever reason, we have a procedure for that (and for those fantasy football pundits, you’ll get your President Harris).

One thing I’ve always wondered about with SpaceX’s design (lots of smaller engines vs fewer larger ones) is whether each one has its own turbopump or if multiple engines are fed from shared ones. I’ve read that the turbopumps are one of, if not the most complex parts of a rocket engine.

Yep, though “Debian Stable” is a bit redundant lol.

Ouch! 😆

Debian 🤘

Nice try Microsoft

That’s the most insulting thing anyone has ever said to me. 😆

There’s always a relevant xkcd. Lol

Oh for sure.

The meme is just a very exaggerated tale of moving a tacked-on, added-at-the-absolute-last second button from the previous release into the action menu where it should have gone originally. It’s an in-house application, and the people that complained are also the type that will bold an entire page because “it’s important”. lol

LMAO at your description of John Oliver 😆

😆

I’m 100% linux, even on my work PC, but I will spare you the evangelism. lol

It’s pretty safe to look at Microsoft as a shining beacon of what not to do when it comes to (re) design. I’m not an Apple fan, but I do respect that OSX has basically just had incremental / evolutional UI changes since it was first released. Any major differences (AFAIK, anyway) were slowly and progressively implemented over several versions.

I don’t think it matters what he’s wearing; he just is stupid.

You can get 128GB RAM modules now? Where have I been??

You’re taking this far too literally. There’s a good bit of hyperbole in play here for the purposes of making a joke.

Yeah, I get that completely. Which is why I rarely, if ever, overhaul the whole interface.

Pretty much every change is a refinement rather than a complete redesign. In this case, the complaint was because I moved a button that was just kind of tacked-on last minute in a previous release into the action menu where it should have gone to start with. lol

Haven’t carbon offsets always been a scam, though? Like, I’m pretty sure I recall that you can buy forests that already exist to offset new pollution. Or am I misremembering / making that up? I’m not 100% sure what I was remembering wasn’t from King of the Hill rather than an article. I still believe carbon offsets have always been a scam, though.

Yep, lol.

• The user is always right
• The user has no fucking clue what they want

I hate how both of those things are true at the same time 😆

And the digital wallet service provider is breached in 3…2…1…

Mung beans. Very nutritious, but they smell like death.

I would absolutely hang out with Florida Stanley.
