As per Betteridge’s Law of Headlines: no.

If you want convincing Bond villains, cast Tom Homan and Emil Bove. They’ll gladly accept, cuz they’re morons and they’ll think it’s an honor, and they’ll be absolutely perfect.

No he couldn’t.

Puh-leeze, for the love of all that’s holy… No Timothee Chalamet this time!

Using Copilot even as a mere coding assistance is insane, if no other reason than you’re sending all your code to Microsoft, and you also let them monitor your work habits in uncomfortably intimate details.

Love and hate what you want. That’s totally normal.

Just make sure you don’t start hating people who like things you don’t like.

Why, that’s an easy one: don’t do social media. Regardless of what the American fascist regime wants to abuse it for, it’ll do you good.

I know it’s hard to believe, but in a majority of places on Earth, water is readily available.

Well, I’m an avid cyclist and left the US 25 years ago, and if that’s really the kind of behemoth that roams the streets in the US today, I’m glad I did.

I’m pretty sure the scales are different. Look at the door handles: regardless of the size of the vehicle, anything that interact with human beings should be roughly the same scale and the door handles just aren’t.

Not to say that American trucks aren’t ridiculously oversized of course, but that photo looks doctored to me.

Mozilla has been consistently making the wrong decisions for decades. This is just another one. Calm down, the outrage will go away like it always does.

I fail to see Discord as anything other than IRC with too many emojis and primary colors for the short of attention span, implemented as a humongous pile of Web 2.0 nonsense, with Big Data surveillance built in.

Privacy and resource comsumption issues notwithstanding, the few times I’ve had to use it to connect with people in certain communities that could basically only be found on Discord, it was unbearable to this gen-Xer: it’s just as fast and as shallow as IRC, but somehow I feel the extra symbolic and color overload would have triggered a seizure if I was epileptic. It’s maddering.

Oh well, maybe I’m old.

When you use the Discord app, you use a browser - Chromium specifically: Discord is an electro app.

In other word, if you already run a browser that burns hundreds of megabytes of RAM, disk, and requires tons of CPU do display simplistic things, as browsers do, you might as well use it to access Discord instead of running a second insanely wasteful browser disguised as a native app.

My experience with Discord, period:

It was so human a lot of usenet was properly unsavory.

Because that’s what humans are, mostly.

I think MAGA thinks you’re not part of the human species to begin with.

Standalone slop. Woohoo!

Because a starter motor draws a hundred amps or so. The solenoid ensures that closing the circuit is done as quickly as possible to limit sparking - and also keep the sparking as far from the driver’s fingers as possible. Also, it’s closer to the starter motor and the battery, so the cables are short and don’t waste as much power as if they had to snake through the firewall - not to mention the PITA of routing monter copper cables through the firewall.

What a useless video.

TL;DR: you have to agree to a new ToS. There’s a bunch of terms you can read. You can disable data collection and Mozilla doesn’t shadily re-enable it behind your back.

That’s what the video says. Literally. No explanation of the new terms, no nothing. Pure clickbait. Save yourself 2 minutes.

If only this could convince companies to ditch SAP… Whoever used SAP even once in their life knows the world would be a better place if it died a fiery death.
