Exactly as ordered. Good job, private.

My expectation was that one might rotate an equine on an axis other than yaw.

I’ve seen this one before, but the alt text had me in a (silent) laughing fit anyways.

Crime dog is back!

Probably that other comment (right above this one for me right now,) with this being meant as a reply.

Disney says Piccolo agreed to similar language again when purchasing park tickets online in September 2023. Whether he actually read the fine print at any point, it adds, is “immaterial.”

Whuh? Why didn’t they make their case around that instead of Disney+?

If you want an honest answer, I’d recommend finding some place that has a decent population of openly right-wing people so you can get an answer from them directly, rather than left-wingers snarking and saying they’re all brainwashed fanatics that would never dissent from the party’s candidate.

I’ve never seen that association with my friends who use it. It’s always been more of a meme word, a meaningless adjective you throw into a sentence to make it “funnier.”

Two wars can exist simultaneously.

I know it’s dead. I still have it, and it still does all I want from an IDE.

Well, LLMs are, at least. But also, autocomplete is already AI, so really LLMs are just glorified AI. And that checks out, they are the ones that get all the glory*. Everything else is just spooky algorithms.

*Except for walking robots and stuff like that.

I was surprised when I made attackPower and it suggested defensePower next. It was then that it sunk in that the autocomplete was AI.

Same here, but Atom. Maybe I should start using Atom again.

I googled it, there is an option to sync it to your Microsoft account, but I can’t say whether that’s on by default when you turn on clipboard history because I skipped adding a Microsoft account. But if it is, you can turn it off in Settings -> System -> Clipboard.

StackOverflow will discourage you when you’re right. ChatGPT will encourage you when you’re wrong.

After success with my senior project, developing a real game with a team of 15 that we’re releasing on Steam, which I feel really good about, I crave the experience of working in a team to develop a game. But of course, my hobby project is a nonprofit endeavor so I can only expect volunteers, and even though I feel I can get the coding down mostly on my own, I feel like I might be asking too much by hoping for an artist or few to join with me… maybe I just need to change up my approach, and offer equal shares of creative control, that way it’s not “help me make my game” so much as “join me and we’ll make our game.”

Hey buddy, your value is not what capitalists are willing to pay for your time.

Thanks for this. I had read up on it some time ago, and it seemed like par-for-the-course “paint the government our color once we’re in power” except for a couple concerning points, so when people around here were talking about it like it was literal fascism, I dismissed that as misunderstandings and exaggeration. I hadn’t realized that civil servants were hitherto untouched by the government switching colors.

So it sounds like it’s not literal fascism, but it’s more like… how in some fantasy worlds, higher powers will avoid getting involved in mortal affairs because doing so will give their enemies license to do the same and then the world becomes a mess. It sounds like if Project 2025 happens, then blue’s going to retaliate in kind when they get power back (because otherwise they’re at a major disadvantage,) and it keeps going, majorly hampering the government’s operations. Who wants to get a job that you’re gonna be fired from in 4 years? There’s a chance that blue’s just going to try to hit the undo button, but if red keeps knocking the block tower over and blue keeps rebuilding it, that’s still not going to go very well.

But at the same time… they’ve already stated their willingness to do this. So the damage to the unwritten contract between parties is already done, and the only way to avoid the consequences is to keep blue in power until red redacts, and hope blue doesn’t decide to do it first (which they probably won’t, unless they say something like “the only way to defend against red doing it is to make sure they don’t have their own people in there when they get the power.”)

I don’t like that, though. Sure, blue is generally more reasonable than red, but that’s because they have to be in order to secure votes from reasonable people. If all they need to be is more reasonable than the guys who are literally planning to destroy the government, that’s going to let them get away with some pretty undesirable things. I think a better move would be to try to address the deteriorating two-party dynamics we have. My money’s on Literally Anybody Else.

That’s why I asked. Wasn’t sure if it was a joke about the name, or if it’s someone pretending to be Taylor Swift, or the real deal (which I never heard of because I don’t follow Taylor Swift - or because it’s not real.)

Is it actually Taylor Swift?
