Over just a few months makes me think it’s fake. But who knows. Things actually do happen.

Remember when the argument for self driving cars was that they don’t need to be perfect, just better than humans?

Same! Yes! I specifically remember one my (then) girlfriend (now wife) made like that. She made me a mix of some songs. I put them on my mp3 player so they had that slip in them on that too. Even on my first smart phone too back before I streamed music.

If only I were in Canada 😭 so free it hurts here in the US

If it was a popular torrent with a lot of seeders, it was probably still working but you never got selected. Could also happen when it was the opposite. If there was like three seeders and no peers, when you finish you’re just sitting there with the other folks with no one to seed to.

I downloaded Rammstein’s Amerika but it was like just one specific verse and chorus repeated. It was really weird. It took my a while to notice because I didn’t know German. My best guess is someone took a free sample of the song from somewhere and edited it so it was longer by repeating it a couple times.

Also, a few of the Nightwish songs I downloaded had an announcer in the middle of the bridge say something like “You are listening to Nightwish’s new song Blah on the album Once.” Maybe it said something about being able to buy it on iTunes. That one was interesting because it definitely seemed legit. I guess some artists released stuff like that knowing people would steal regardless so they wanted a version with instructions to buy it if you liked it. To this day when I’m listening to those songs I hear the voice in my head when the song gets to those parts.

I hear if you torrent you get a nastygram from your ISP. Meanwhile, I hear if you find a site that offers to stream it for free, nothing bad happens. Also I hear that Yandex gives better results for such sites than Google or DDG/Bing.

You were never in any real danger.

There’s a grub flag for that

I have been on macOS at work since December of 2019. Before that it was Windows since 2014. If I had the choice for Linux I might take it over macOS, but I’d happily take either over Windows.

True!

Maybe it’s rust? Or the ugliest, worst shade of blue with gold marbling.

“Atlanta is Atlantis! Atlanta is Atlantis! Atlanta is Atlantis!”

Python is an imperative language.

How do you tell a dog to walk? “Dog, walks!” or “Dog, walk!”

Even drinking two per day seems intense. I’d need to look at the caffeine content again, I think red bull is relatively less, like comparable to a coffee. But monster is a ton.

And then they’re gonna say “see? Look how many people are using this! I deserve a bonus.” When it’s a setting that’s just on by default.

“never said it did” was a response to where Forgejo supports federation for issues and PRs.

Never said it did, and the comment replying to didn’t say it did either.

concept of users, write permissions, or authentication

collaborative things like issue tracking, PRs, forums, etc

Forgejo has those, yes.
