True, and ICE cars don’t need to use brakes on long hills either. Use your transmission; that’s why they put those manual shift features into the car

The developers aren’t in charge of what’s in the game, the PMs and accountants are

Right, understood. I’m saying that’s it’s Modern English as opposed to, say, Middle English. I can (mostly) read Chaucer, for example, but I still have to look stuff up. To me, that’s archaic. I cannot read Old English at all. And difficult, to me, would be, say, James Joyce (over my head, honestly), or Thomas Pynchon (readable, but requires a lot of thought), or say Foucault’s Pendulum (Eco is so much more erudite than I am).

Edit: punctuation, ironically

I mean just the usual, you know, Nazi stuff

I’m sorry, my tone was off somewhere. I was not criticizing you at all, but rather the source material. It just surprised me that they characterized it that way.

I do apologize for the confusion.

I get it, I read that too. Maybe my opinion shouldn’t count for much.

So they’re, I mean, uhh… Aren’t YouTube infrastructure costs already very high? Now just anyone can just generate even more content that they’re going to have to host, and use their compute to generate it, too? I’m just skeptical of all of this.

And people eat it up, too. My boss linked the most obvious AI-generated video I’ve ever seen, and not to make fun of it.

archaic 19th century

I really can’t understand this sentiment. That is modern English

Dickens is not difficult and none of those passages need translation. It’s just plain modern English

what “crazy pills” are you taking?

1. Hear people praise SyncThing
2. Open the Play Store by depressing the tip of my finger on its icon
3. Search “SyncThing”
4. Click on first result
5. Press “Install”
6. It doesn’t work

Ok awesome, thank you. I’ll try it out. I was not aware of the discrepancy with the Play Store version

Yes. Enjoy 30 minutes of unhinged (but logical and highly enjoyable) ranting about this, if you care to:

What is this SyncThing fork? Is it on F-Droid or something? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills because everyone praises SyncThing but it straight up does not work. I can get it to sync once, then the next day it will just not connect at all (Android 15 P9Pro/CachyOS)

Gold/Black == Ancap (derogatory)

You think that quote’s bad, you should see what they’re saying on Xitter

Bite bite pass

You can only use these substitutes to make French omelette

It really is. And such a stupid fucking thing to try and be pedantic about

Well yes it has to be like that, so they can stack. Stupid measuring cups though, I hate useless cooking gimmicks like this

They have a weird power grid and unique geographic challenges that make hydrogen appealing in a lot of ways. I mean, hydrogen is appealing for a lot of reasons. The logistics and economic viability challenges are insane though
