“this one-off half scale prototype is worse than a technology we’ve been deploying for 30 years”

…yes? so?

isn’t this just proof that the dutch can’t drive?

i had to scroll to see the last panel and it hit me like a goddamn truck

i configured dyndns in my router and have it forward all traffic to a gateway vm running nginx and fail2ban. every service is on a subdomain so any attempt to fetch things from the main name gets banned.

it looks like general grievous.

and by “it”… hehe, well lets just say… my digits

no but i’m not talking about me. i’m talking about tyler, 27, who just gets a new phone and doesn’t care about whatever accounts the old one had, so he throws it away and now the parts are available at a repair shop.

what if the phone is broken and has been disassembled?

sure but what if you buy one for parts?

i’m perfectly fine with buying third-party components.

…but only if you buy the parts new.

the same apple that locks individual parts of devices to user accounts so that they can’t be used for repair?

I did an MSc in Computer Engineering. my uni also had computer science, but it was only a BSc and they did more theoretical stuff. We built hardware, debugged assembly, and studied signal propagation, while they looked at ACID compliance, data deduplication, and high-level architecture. well, we did that too but much less of it.

it’s a shit book even on its own merits so if purple liked it they likely got some biases confirmed by it 😬

violet?

idk if using the uk in particular as an example there is very useful.

it varies. france and norway have some square mandatory “keep <direction>” arrows and sweden has the aforementioned “one-way in your direction” square arrow.

if you parse the 80 sign as “keep below 80” then this would be “keep below 1 pedestrian”!

there’s a reason some countries have a line through the “no x” signs, i think…

yeah but this is a right-wing government, meaning they are also lowering taxes and taking loans to give money to international corporations without any revenue-sharing in mind. which means cuts everywhere else.

you can’t eat a pedestrian

alno unironically yes. it means “no pedestrians”.
