Windows 8 was when MS were trying to break into the phone OS market to complete with Android and iOS. They wanted to have the “same OS” across phone, tablet, and desktop, which isn’t a terrible idea except for the fact you need to betray your entire desktop customer base to get there.

My favourite part of Linux cli is you only know you’ve done something when you get no feedback at all.

Did you even read what you’re linking? Nothing on that page explains the contradictory grammar of the template.

Taken literally, it’s suggesting that nobody is saying nothing (therefore everyone is saying something). But it is trying to say that no one has said anything, meaning the next action is unprompted.

It’s not a very good template.

I really enjoyed the second and third films, but I understand they didn’t perform as well.

I’ve heard there was scheduling conflicts with Channing Tatum which explains some of the disjointed character arcs. I guess they’d already advertised Tatum before the conflicts, so they tried to keep him in while replacing his characters story beats with Pedro Pascal.

I was really looking forward to a long running franchise that wasn’t afraid to go full tilt James Bond parody with over the top action.

It seems odd for Amazon to split it’s library across two streaming services.

Sad story.

That’s enough money to have a good life and provide a good life to your loved ones. If he never finds it, he is a crazy man. If he finds it he is a smart man. A normal person can’t earn that much in a lifetime. Even a miniscule chance of finding it could drive someone to obsession.

For the sake of his sanity, and for a good story, I hope he finds it, but I doubt he will.

The worst thing was that they had a seriously bizarre alien animatronic as the pilot at the end, but they replaced it with holographic orange Tetris.

It’s the opening scene. Unless you walked into the cinema late, you’d know there was nothing to miss. If you do think you’ve missed something, just keep it to yourself and don’t ruin it for other people. You’d be surprised what you can infer from context.

“unplugged nation” is certainly one way to describe what happened. The monkey very briefly became part of the electricity grid, is another.

It looks as much like a hummingbird as a cloud can look like an elephant. The viewer has already been prompted to see a hummingbird, and humans are very good at finding a pattern in something random. I can easily believe it to be real, but I’m not sold on the idea that it particularly resembles anything significant.

It’s just a show. You should really just relax.

Theoretically, yes, but I suspect the manufacturing quality of SD cards is a lot lower than SSDs

And from memory, the number of enemies scales with the number of players. It’s gets pretty hectic pretty fast.

There’s heaps of mods for classic games to turn them into co-op, including Doom (3), half life, quake, aliens vs predator, etc.

Lol

“The best way to run arch is to have a second non-arch computer at all times”

I think that sums it up

It’s probably some kids workshop assignment that he brought home to his parents.

Unless you are suggesting that actual election fraud took place, these guys got democratically elected.

From the outside it seems like this is what the majority of your voting public wanted, and the majority of your adult population were fine with it and chose not to vote. If it were the first time I would consider it as revealing a major flaw in your political system, but this is the second time, non consecutively, that this has happened. That just looks like this is representative of your people. Sorry.

I never liked the analogy of a social contract. A contract is something that people agree on. Most of society is just people going through life fairly passively, and inheriting the values of those around them.

A lot of hate comes from ignorance, whether taught or absorbed from someone’s surroundings. Not because they are opting out of some kind of previously agreed upon contract. I think that’s an important thing to recognise.

The paradox of tolerance is a hypothetical idea of complete tolerance, which I’m not sure ever exists in humans in the real world.
