Muslim fascists and Western fascists are on the same side here. They both want the same thing... a world defined by hatred of the other.
There is zero contradiction on opposing both of them.
Racial discrimination is illegal where I live, and I believe that's a good thing. Political parties that advocate racism are simply antithetical to the whole concept of liberal democracy.
If the local baker is a racist, then I'll buy my bread elsewhere. It's pretty simple.
I down voted you because you accused the GP of bad faith, rather than genuinely engaging with their point.
Don't dig yourself further into that hole by slinging "bad faith" around willy nilly.
How is "LGBT" left wing??
Furthermore, I'm not in the US, but "US politics" doesn't seem to have much left wing about it either.
how are all the people who insult Trump on social media still alive or not locked up
I think you'll find that some of them actually are locked up, and a few of them are dead.
in The Netherlands it was €210 for a 40 minute ride
That's much more than taxis cost in the UK, and pretty expensive even for the Netherlands. You have great cycling infrastructure, and public transport though.
Renting a car is an affordable alternative to ownership, if you need to go to occasional concerts or birthday parties, and public transport happens to be inconvenient for your specific destination. I did that for years - the rental company would deliver and collect from my workplace, so it's super-easy.
If your children play football you really need a car.
A friend of mine used to ferry his son 1000s of km per year to ice-hockey matches around the country, so I know what you mean. I don't understand it though - if the whole team is travelling, why don't they just rent a bus? Personally, I don't think it's healthy for a child's hobby to consume so much of the parents' time - of course, your choice.
What??
On what planet is getting your groceries on a bike "more privileged" than driving?
I'd say that the vast majority of people who live in a city both work, and socialise almost exclusively there.
If I don't care about secure boot today, but might in the future, is this something I need to care about right now?
A landlord is doing exactly the same thing as an investor. They are tying up their capital in exchange for an income, and the possibility of a capital gain.
I use Docusign on Firefox, no problem.
It was Yeltsin.
They can't find anyone else to headline, it has to be a literal, self-described Nazi?
OK Grok, calm down.
It's way better than the US.
No. Apple's phones started out with only web apps. They only add the walled garden later.
It couple physically disable camera + mic + whatever, and ALSO have hooks that enable you to do extra things with it in software?
Why don't you work on improving rsync, rather than reinventing the wheel? Or create something new??
It's fine as a personal project, but as soon as you get other people using your new code, they'll be exposed to all the bugs that you are inevitably creating.
Honestly, this kind of "rewrite something battle tested in my favourite language" project is dangerous and insane.
C++ destructors are implicit, while defer is explicit.
You can just look at the code in front of you to see what defer is doing. With destructors, you need to know what type you have (not always easy to tell), then find its destructor, and all the destructors of its parent classes, to work out what's going to happen.
Sure, if the situation arises frequently, it's nice to be able to design a type that "just works" in C++. But if you need to clean up reliably in just this one place, C++ destructors are a very clunky solution.
Example: If a build is going on in the background, I can see when it stops.
Windows XP was a disaster. Resistance to adopting it was industry wide, and lasted years. It was only with Service Pack 2 (which was an enormous rewrite of basically the whole system) that they started to turn the ship around.
That's insane.
I bet someone who knew Bash well enough could probably just optimise the original script (xargs -P perhaps, to parallelise the calls to ln?), but no it must be rewritten in Rust, because reasons.
Kim Dotcom should make a trademark violation complaint.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Cooling systems fail in geostationary orbit. I watched thermal loads glitter in the dark near Lagrange Point 2. RAID arrays degraded by Van Allen radiation. Micrometeorite impacts at 2 AM. Legacy Perl scripts no one dared to touch, running on hardware we couldn't replace because the launch windows had closed. All those moments will be lost in time, like packets in space. Time to reboot.
No, I think he is that stupid.
Yay, localroger!
Best practice for C++ modules: avoid.
(Buy my book)
The cost of owning a car dwarfs the cost of an occasional taxi ride.
