More than half of the people alive in Palestine were too young to vote in their last election.

Back in my day, MS-DOS let you use HELP on QBASIC commands.

I would make video games. I’d even do some adult ones, since I’ve noticed the existing ones aren’t super great.

That Basil Poledouris soundtrack is amazing, too. I love that they still sample it for games.

But your whiny and lazy ass is better?

Seconding Everything. Being able to search for text inside of files has been a godsend.

“I could be killed today” job?

Pizza delivery has a higher fatality rate than being a cop.

I’ve found that used to be more true than it is lately. I think they’re making an effort now.

If it weren’t for reader mode, a lot of news sites would be unusable.

And lets give the dot menu a slight delay so it looks neat.

The version on my S5 is a quarter the size of the version on my XCover. Both give the same directions. The app ballooned to 4x the size for ads and features I have literally never used on the phone like street view and “explore”.

The version on my near decade old phone is also snappier and uses less data because it isn’t background loading a bunch of ads for me to tune out.

The logic is that they don’t count ignition costs because they only have to be paid once. So it’s producing more than it consumes, and would eventually start netting a surplus.

I like holding my wife and daughter too much for this to be truly tempting.

I still use the IR blaster on my s5 when I go out. I never have to get stuck with fox news playing when I have it with me. It’s from 2014 and still kicking.

It also works on a lot on window mounted air conditioners, weirdly.

No shit. I’m saying the tools I had to make myself should come standard instead of wasting dev time on command line bullshit.

Making a little program that opens a window with some buttons to pin to my taskbar is infinitely easier than digging out docs and copy pasting into a command line every time I need to do anything. Paste the command once, done. It’s like 10 lines of code, plus about 3-4 for each command I add. Maybe drag the window a bit bigger when I add the button.

I’m anti everything that requires daily use of arcane command line bullshit. I thought we were on the way to being over that when Windows 3.1 came out.

If it needs to be done more than once, make it a button on a little program. I’ve rolled my own for any of them that can be triggered from the windows command line. But Docker and others that require their own unique command line I can’t do that. I wouldn’t be as annoyed by Docker if Docker Desktop just did all the crap it should instead of requiring command line bullshit every damn day.

I really want to make a “closed as duplicate” joke about yet another billionaire being stupid and tanking their site.

The content in question is unfortunately something that has become very common in recent months: CSAM (child sexual abuse material), generally AI-generated.

AI is now apparently generating entire children, abusing them, and uploading video of it.

Or, they are counting “CSAM-like” images as CSAM.

You can use it offline as long as you load it up before going offline.

Photopea runs completely in your device, just like Sketch or Photoshop do. It does not upload any of your files to the internet. You can load Photopea.com, disconnect from the internet and keep using it completely offline. None of your files ever leaves your computer.
