Damn crazy that you’re in favor of regulating porn but are also telling people to use a VPN.

Wow you’re a woke globalist. /S

Everyone should really check this piece of shits post history

It’s a desktop only feature, it hasn’t been built into mobile I believe

I was a self taught programmer who 10+ years later is now a senior software engineer. I can’t tell you what to do but I can tell you what worked for me.

The reality is, I never sat down with the intent to “learn programming”. Instead, I had practical ideas for things I wanted to make the computer do, and then I learned whatever was necessary to accomplish my projects as I went. Whenever I got stuck or hit an error, I’d search my questions online.

I never truly “finished” most of these early projects but they gave me a practical understanding of how things fit together. From there I just kept making stuff and taking on harder projects and then harder jobs and eventually other programmers started coming to me asking for help because they knew I had solved the thing they were working on before.

I’m not sure if it’s advice, but I’d say stop worrying about learning and just do. If you like firmware, go buy some shitty unsupported peripheral from Goodwill and try to make it work on your modern system. Solve a problem you have in your everyday life. It doesn’t matter if you accomplish the goal, you’ll learn a lot by googling your way through it. Do that enough and you’ll wake up one day and be a competent programmer.

This comment might be a good opportunity for self reflection. You asked a question as if you were interested in good faith dialog, but then instead of trying to understand others point of view you’re just arguing that you’re “objectively” right and they’re wrong. You even admit at the end of this comment that you weren’t really interested in hearing what others had to say, you just wanted to shout your “point”. Another word for that is preaching.

Regardless of the topic, that kind of approach is going to rub people the wrong way. To answer your original question that is why people get annoyed when veganism comes up - because it’s often brought up in the hostile and preachy manner you’re employing in this comment.

Based on my past interactions with people who want to talk about veganism on the internet, I’m guessing you’ll just jump down my throat again in a response rather than consider what i said, but just maybe this will get through to you. Since you weren’t interested in dialog, I’m not either - I won’t respond so don’t bother trying to tell me what you think in a response.

In that case let’s go Brandon!

Remember, if you downvote me, then you’re admitting what you just said is bullshit.

I’m assuming you’re asking in good faith.

With these corridors, they fence the road so that the animals can only pass over the bridge. And youre right, sometimes they do raise the road and let animals pass under. It depends on the topography.

Here’s more information: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wildlife_crossing

Plenty of places you can do this. Put “homesteading” into a search engine of your choice and you’ll get more information on the topic than you can handle.

You’ll also pretty quickly realize its a very hard, tedious life and we have it pretty good in many ways in the modern world.

Its great that you’re helping to inform him! I have found the people who know the most about politics and global issues tend to talk less and listen more.

If your political opinion begins with “why don’t we just…” then its a bad political opinion.

If we could just, we would have already just. If you think you’re the only one with the capacity to see a simple answer - newsflash, you’re not a political genius. Its you who doesn’t understand the complexity of the problem.

Its not possible by blocking the barrel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBusters_(2005_season)#Finger_in_a_Barrel

Likely this barrel was deformed manually using tools.

I’m on the extreme end. Any kind of “recommendations” are an immediate and complete turn off for me. Not just the obvious stuff like “sponsored” posts or “algorithmic social media” feeds. I abhor and avoid even things like Spotify recommendations, which most people consider useful.

Whether they intend it or not, these engines are built to funnel you back into the lowest common denominator, most broadly appealing stuff, because that’s what the algorithm sees gets the most clicks from the average person. Sure, everyone likes oatmeal, but that’s because its bland and inoffensive.

I want to find my own shit through my own idiosyncratic process.

Reading a physical newspaper is lovely. Highly recommend.

To reinforce the shift in company culture toward “empowering and rewarding every employee to find security issues, report them,” and “help fix them,” Smith said that Nadella sent an email out to all staff urging that security should always remain top of mind.

Yeah that ought to do it.

Punk isn’t dead, it just put on a dress and moved to Japan

My brain has coalesced around this fantasy version of who I was when I was 25.

I’m in my 30s now but when I imagine myself that’s who I picture. And funny enough that person wasn’t even who I was at that age. I was way insecure about so many of the things I now think back on fondly. Getting older is a funny thing.

Nope.

“If you don’t like it don’t fly”

Seriously just shut up.

Edit: LMAO just saw your other comment where you actually said this sincerely. You’re a parody of yourself.

60°F. Not raining, but misting.

This is why I live in the PNW.
