Don’t forget glazing the GTA 6 trailer

Physical media also comes with a license.

licenses are a very IT central idea.

No, that’s just the implementation you’re most familiar with. Licenses are a copyright idea that IT adopted and made digital. Every physical movie and game you own also comes with a license that authorizes your retail use of it, but forbids your commercial use of it. You can’t rent your copy of Shrek out to people, nor can you charge admission to people to watch Shrek at your house, nor are you allowed to make copies of your Shrek DVD and sell them, for example.

Ben Franklin was very progressive for his time. He owned a few slaves early in his life, but soon freed them and spent the rest of his life as one of that time period’s most outspoken critics of slavery. He even bought a printing press so he could spread anti-slavery rhetoric more effectively.

You have internet, there’s no excuse for being wrong unless you just like spreading misinformation.

Whenever lemmings feel like posts are getting too political, doomy, or whatever, the hive mind decides to post beans

No. I typed it with my own thumbs, from my own mind.

All of that sounds unintuituve and complicated, which I think is the main complaint overall.

Best start believing. Politics directly affects literally every single aspect of your day-to-day life whether you believe in it or not.

You used to have master and slave processes too until it was changed to parent and child

Yeah, I’ve heard. I’ve always associated the terms with dom/sub play, not slavery.

I get the reasoning as to why, but it seems odd to me that the IT terms were fixated on, but not the engineering terms; “master” and “slave” are still the accepted terms in the context of hydraulic systems, for example.

It’s also generally accepted that “retard” and “retarded” are generally acceptable terms when used in an engineering context. If we can accept that some terms are accepted in the a technical context, it seems inconsistent not to apply the same thinking to IT terminology.

Just more stuff to keep us bickering with each other so we don’t look up and realize where all the real problems are coming from, imo.

Skate videos popularized the use of the fish eye lens. Music videos had people waving their hands around in the face of the camera because it looks cool through that lens. The idea was applied to still images, and this is the result.

“Ey gurl, don’t act like you ain’t see my pull request. Lemme deep scan dem packets.”

Don’t forget all the master/slave terminology

a reference to bootlegging alcohol

Kinda, sorta. “Mountain dew” is a euphemism for moonshine in the southern US.

The definition of “bootlegging” varies by who you ask. Some say it’s any kind of unregulated activity related to alcohol, which can include brewing; some insist it only refers to the smuggling or transport of the finished product.

So, depending on which definition of “bootlegging” you subscribe to, it may refer to that. But “mountain dew” means “moonshine” because most people who make it live in the Appalachian mountains

“It’ll tickle your innards!”

Polymarket and crypto have some people believing they’re only three days from being a millionaire

You’re just jealous because I’ve been online talking to hot babes all. day.

Things rapidly get larger then smaller, back and forth. For me, my vision would also sometimes do this thing where I’d have both eyes open, but it would look like I was winking one, then the other, back and forth really fast.

I also liked how even a little dxm would enhance weed like crazy.

It got to where I couldn’t keep any liquid dxm down at all and I hated polystirex so robitussin in the blue bottle was the only thing that worked for me. Eventually I got tired of swallowing entire bottles of big, dry pills so I retired from it permanently.

We domesticated dogs. Cats domesticated us.

Hey, this guy knows how to party
