Aw fuck l, I knew I remembered that shit from childhood The Wizard of Oz.

Ich bin 40. Meine Eltern sind wahrscheinlich so sein Alter. Ich wurde nicht geschlagen, der Typ ist einfach damals schon ein aus der Zeit gefallener Widerling gewesen.

…fuck everything about Milon’s Secret Castle, though…

I was an snes kid, so I never played that one and was blissfully unaware of its existence until I saw that review…

Oddly enough, of all the avgn videos that I watched, this and the battletoads one really stuck with me.

But temperature is not just the speed of a molecule right?

It pretty much is.

Like a molecule moving very fast through space can still be at a very low temperature, right?

That very much depends on the relative speed of the molecule and you. If you’re not moving in relation to the molecule, a collision between you and it won’t do much. Now try being hit by it (or a bunch of them) at high or even relativistic speeds. The area of you that’s hit will surely become pretty hot then.

Like, have you seen footage of asteroid impacts? Have you seen shooting stars? Those are hot. Like, non-figuratively.

As if they had the funds for an original ps2 controller… They used a logitech ripoff.

I love it.

Yeah, that’s a much better point of view. I’ll just make that my own. Ignore what I said before.

Russian soldiers sings: Just don’t tell mom that I’m going to Bakhmut

Well, just don’t fucking go there, then?

This post was brought to you by Isaac Asimov’s Foundation gang.

The system, no matter how good its education, will never be able to turn everybody into “decent philosophers”. Some people just aren’t smart, no matter how good education might get. Some just are gullible. That doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be as well-educated as they can possibly be, but people and their capabilities just are a spectrum and always will be. And even if today’s dumbest people will be as smart as today’s “decent philosophers” by tomorrow, today’s “decent philosophers” will still outsmart them, which is an issue if there are manipulative people with hidden agendas among them. Which they will be.

This isn’t an education issue, it’s an information and misinformation issue. Giving anybody, including malicious actors, their own, personal channel to spread whatever information they want, regardless of its quality or truth, has turned out to be a terrible idea. The Internet kind of comes with the idea to give everyone access to all of humanity’s information without taking into account that there should be a certain responsibility attached to the question of the creation of that information or that there should be a separation of concerns between people who spread information and people who have other interests than just informing people in the best way possible.

Aber sonst noch alles ganz frisch?

Right now we’re releasing Windows 10, and because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we’re all still working on Windows 10.

It’s all about Windows as a service

Windows isn’t dead, but the idea of version numbers could be

Recent comments at Ignite about Windows 10 are reflective of the way Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations and updates in an ongoing manner, with continuous value for our consumer and business customers

That’s true.

It also explains nothing about that picture.

I love the positivity, but I don’t get it. Why is the union of “act + do your best” and “imagine a better future” the question “why are you here”? Same for the other overlapping areas.

The person I replied to was talking about learning the basics of a language… This isn’t about searching for something specific, this is about reading the very basic introduction to a language before trying to Google your way through it. Avoiding the basic documentation is always a bad idea. Replacing it with the LLMed version of the original documentation probably even more so.

What about just reading the documentation?

Not to be overly pedantic, but changing the order of things in the second part of the sentence is really throwing me off by suggesting that donuts are fermented and that there’s a beer with fried dough as an ingredient somewhere.

Just looked it up because I was wondering as well.

First, the image says “aqueduct bridge” for the first arched bridge, not “aqueduct”, because the whole thing you see there is the aqueduct.

Second, while Romans also simply built walls if they didn’t need as much elevation (and because they’re easier to build than those arches), as soon as you have successive arches, you have an arcade. So in the image, they’re both arcades and it’s just labeled weirdly.

Sorry, aber das ist kein Protokoll, das sind Vorwürfe von dir an deine Führungskräfte. Und die können gerechtfertigt sein, aber im Protokoll haben die nichts zu suchen.

Ich finde es beeindruckend, dass eine Führerin nicht weiß, dass Pausen nicht bezahlte Zeit sind.

Meine Arbeit zu machen ist nicht genug?

Ich finde es schwer zu glauben, dass eine Führung das nicht weiß.

Und so weiter.

Das alles sind Aussagen, die mit dem Hergang des Gesprächs nicht zu tun haben. Ich würde das alles so auf keinen Fall schreiben.
