It’s the idiot’s curse. A cage of their own making. To believe that because they’re incapable of understanding how it was done or they themselves lack the skill and imagination to figure how do it, therefore no one understands or can do it.

My little cousin was 10 during the height of the craze. I have been regaled with hours of FNAF lore that now lives rent free in my head. My YouTube recommendations were cursed for years. I still tease him about it nowadays and he cringes hard.
Disruption!
It actually just means to undercut an existing industry with venture capital, taking on a loss until the existing competition is out-priced out of the market. Then once a monopoly is established, tear down quality service, hike up prices, shaft costumers and use the money to pay huge bonuses to the executives. If the company is still profitable afterwards then just recreate the same old industry and competitors but with an iron grip monopoly. If it is not profitable, just sell the company and distribute the dividends amongst the C suite. Rinse and repeat.
I’m more of a walk-in abortion kind of person.
Awesome, Valve still won’t take my money even at full price.
Never underestimate the accumulated idiocy of hundreds of people all focused to be inept on the exact same thing.
The thought of commuter traffic as an extreme sport depresses me. But then, the number of people who die from cardiac arrest while sitting in a traffic jam is not zero.
I’ve seen people unironically and without self-awareness admire Draper and want to “be like him”. I don’t get it.
Not even the law uses the verb stealing. It is infringement. Nothing any digital pirate does deprives the owner of their property. Remember, if buying isn’t owning, then copying isn’t stealing.
The current proposal is to use an “e” ending. “mi amigue Charlie es no binarie”.
It’s been reported he had babysitters since PayPal days. They knew what a shitty manager he was all along. But he had money and was friends with people with even more money.
Tribal action vs. principled action. Humans have been dealing with this since forever. Lots of people are unable to act on principle and default to follow the leader of the tribe they identify with, ditching their self-proclaimed principles. Some people are willing to ditch the tribe to uphold their principles. And so on and on our eternal struggles continue.
Yeah, but they’re just doing it because they know that Tesla is grossly overvalued, and as soon as he leaves the post the reality distortion bubble bursts and their precious stock will overcorrect into loses. They want some more time to put through the correct paperwork so when they sell right before the bubble burst it doesn’t look like insider trading.
No one who knew him probably ever did. This is par for the course with billionaires. People see a walking paycheck, they want their ear and their investments. So they flock to him to get their dream projects done, knowing fully that he will steal and claim any success while throwing them under the bus for any setback. Everyone thinks they can control the dragon. But when he is controlling the actual operations usually shit just goes in flames. That’s everything he is ever been.
It’s a peaceful life.
Just be careful, because the person can be the noun, then the adjective takes on the person’s desired gender.
Precisely. It is “el género no binario” or “la persona no binaria”. It has nothing to do with the person, just the nouns. As “binario/a” is an adjective, it has no gender on its own.
Well, I’m downtown right now and I no longer have my tablet with me. But here’s from the horse’s mouth. It says Galaxy Tab S, but it applies to all Galaxy tablets. There you can see the ctrl
key on the tablet’s default keyboard. That key has full functionality for the common shortcuts. That’s undo, redo, copy, cut, paste, and select all. I use them all the time ever since I got it. Both tablets and phones can undo and redo if you connect a bluetooth keyboard to them too.
The Samsung keyboard for phones also acquires the powers of undo and redo if you activate the swipe gestures.
I don’t know why it is so simple on the tablet but not on the phones, but whatever. It’s a UX quirk, it’s not some magic that the keyboards are creating. Android has an UndoManager right in the OS since before 2018. It is what apps that have undo buttons use themselves.
Uuhh, I know we are talking about phones. But the stock keyboard supports all desktop shortcuts when Android runs on a tablet. Like, I’m using them right now on a Samsung A8.
At work the teams feature of teams is blocked. Only sys Admins can create and add people to teams. None exist because no one has ever requested to use it, or knows that it even exists.
