  • My incel cousin refers to women as “chicks and babes”. Then if he sees an unattractive woman, refuses to call them anything.

    It’s really frustrating dealing with him because he constantly whines about his loneliness and isn’t aware how his small mindedness is causing people to bail on him.






  • This sounds technically possible

    If you throw something in the trash/recycle bin, it instead encodes the file into base64, then automatically tweets it out before removing it.

    The question is how many tweets can you post in an hour. I can see you hitting the rate limit pretty quickly.

    Controversial opinion. I love apps.

    (Only because in my company, we created a app team to hire more developers and while our website absolutely doubles as a really fucking good web app, we hinder it in order to keep our app developer homies employed.)






  • There’s a lot of reasons to use a app over a browser.

    Speed is not one of them.

    As a web dev, we can absolutely provide you faster experience. Depending on the service and needs, we can blow any app awaym

    But a app can access hardware tools that browsers cannot.


  • Same energy - whole different thing. I remember in 2005 having to install a special printer software. You can install the drivers, but to understand error messages, you needed “the suite”.

    So furious at the ordeal, I hoped that the future, we don’t have to deal with this.

    Apparently the future hates us and we are STILL dealing with this




  • I did a price comparison three years ago when I was exploring laptops and the price for a Framework was really high. Like it was “cheaper to buy a used laptop every three years for a decade before I break even on a Framework” high.

    I’m not knocking it at all and I think it’s a great idea. It just the cost is so high, and they don’t have the means to produce where the price is at a consumer level.
