Schon klar, alles Essig mit deiner Gurke. Aber da das ne Tastatur ist, wäre nicht ein ‘S’ genug gewesen?

I have a similar theory about star trek. In one scene there was a blurry picture and to sharpen it Ricker said: “Computer implement recursive Algorithm”. That is equivalent to “Computer do something”. So now my theory is that there is an intelligent ship with a genius AI that carries around humans that have regressed to toddler intelligence because the AI does everything for them.

The ship is basically human daycare with lots of blinking buttons and moving pictures to keep the humans occupied while the ship does the actual (and probably boring) science.

Starfleet Academy is basically teaching them technobabble and looking great in a uniform while the AIs do the real work.

The Evil Ampire gets bought by an evil empire. Huh.

He didn’t use an IDE, but I don’t remember what he tried. He also wasn’t a fan of googling stuff. Use the man pages and nothing else.

Here is my story:

There were console outputs after nearly every line. I asked about them: “Oh, I couldn’t get the debugger to work, so I print everything to the console”

This was everywhere. The whole program was like this. On a standard Linux machine. It wasn’t even remote debugging or something. Just a local C++ program.

The filenames where written in 8+3. Again, on a modern Linux machine. His answer? “You never know where we’ll port this software to”

Onto computers that were outdated decades ago? To embedded systems? Of course he had no answer for this except “just in case…”

I could tell you more, that software was the stuff for nightmares.

It’s not that expensive if you use them as slave labor and ignore their human rights… Well, still expensive for the tax payers, but who cares for those peasants? /s

And how did no one think about a fallback in case of a outage? I bet some of the tech people thought about it and management said: “No, we don’t want the consumers to have a functioning unit without internet access. We need the data!”.

Btw. same with the new Windows 11 setup. There’s no technical reason for a computer without internet access to deny the installation.

Oh, I met someone once who spoke really slow and made long pauses to when he spoke.

Great guy, but I started finishing his sentences out of desperation.

Uplifting News: US media resists Gleichschaltung, for now.

… I don’t think don’t think that news is really uplifting.

I mean I get it: that they resist is good.

It’s just that they have to resist against something like that is so much worse.

Ah, I simply avoid that problem by being neither cute nor hot - and therefore single.

You know you have to get a cat named Anton now, right?

Probably creates by a group of middle-aged men who never touched a console.

People with no idea about the product who simply looked at the target demographics and thought:

"What do teenage boys like? Sex.

Let’s go with that since research is hard."

It’s working. Is it working well? We don’t know.

Yeah, put the fridge in the shade of a solar panel. I don’t believe it would work well otherwise

Oh I think people in real life also have to make sense, it’s just often messy, corrupt and a mixture of narcissist and egomaniacs screwing over everyone.

History books don’t tend to write about that but simply parrot the official story - which doesn’t make sense because it’s white washed and sterile and missing important facts.

It’s an elder scrolls game… It’s going to be modded into … Oblivion

And after the dialogue: a extremely hard boss fight. No saving while in dialogue or in combat.

Of course mandatory to advance the story.

I would love to just use signal and nothing else, but I would loose contact to most of my friends and family.

I tried to convince them, without success.

Damn, you’re thirsty 😁 But as a chubby guy with a beard I thank you for making my day!

How are you doing wiggles eyebrows?
