Dictionaries update to reflect current-usage. Millenials were also a US baby-boom generation, and my older three children, born mid-00’s, were part of a surge in births that made the papers. There’s good reason even your own link doesn’t include a date range.

Some are born in good times. Some are born into lots of company in their age range. Plenty are born-into neither, and the dictionary can’t distill all that into understanding without being vague on-purpose to leave room for idiots to grow.

He’s a political/economic pragmatist. If you have record of him promoting capitalism or bashing socialism, please share, but as it is, Norway is one of the dozen most-socialist-leaning coutries on earth.

Maybe don’t apply USian non-sense everywhere. Liberal vs Mamdani as a prejorative is relavent. Liberal vs Torvalds as a prejoritive makes about as much sense as saying the same about Xi Jiping, Kim Jong Un, Miguel Díaz-Canel, or Lenin.

It’s absurd, obtuse, and besides the point, every bit so as the DNC using identity politics only to silence, promote, or ignore real voices for change.

Everything in your first paragraph is contrary to your first sentence. Every single one of those is another argument, but using a turn of phrase and baiting was apparently more important that even making the first, best, and most relavent argument you brought-out.

The real clincher is that you then pretend the person you are replying to didn’t already make those arguments, well, and that you are disagreeing with them.

“This isn’t [the] gotcha you think it is”, really?

That will change over time, as the expense of utilizing them wastefully or in general has already. This isn’t a news article or snap-shot of the state of things today - its a mandate for due diligence going-forward, and an elaboration on how its been addressed so-far.

Programmers already spend about as-much of their time, if not more, reading other’s code as they do writing their own. It doesn’t mater if that “other’s code” is AI generated or not.

There’s an argument to be made about excessive vs not-enough commenting, but that’s not where you went, and its clear you have negligible programming experience, or creative experience for that matter, to be coming after the concept of sharing code like-so.

One wonders how many books you’ve read, to be pretending that reading a book without paying for it, even borrowing from a library, is theft. Stick with the environmental costs arguments - its what you are personally suited to argue, and far more urgent than the rest.

Hillarious to me that he thought there was a country that needed its ships to transit the straight enough to be able to pay the toll, but without the firepower(or more commonly, allies, but also, firepower - Iran doesn’t even need the help, but …), to tell the US to fuck-off with that non-sense.

Seriously Orange-man, try tolling our biggest, best allies and/or trading partners, I’m begging you. I want to see the spectacle they make of your idiocy as a response.

While they were growing up, summer often meant “too hot for clothes, but the water’s cool!” … now its too hot for fuckin, the water’s often warm like piss, and that’s not just in summer.

Getting snowed-in without heat so you gotta huddle-up(naked? NAKED!) for warmth is out too, and sadly not because the bills are paid or the grid’s more reliable. Good job Dad!!

It’s a British show originally. Am USian, yet I’ve never seen the US version.

Half the units in Europe would be named for “heroes” that are war-criminals in another EU state’s histories if:

1. anyone were alive to remember
2. naming military units for people were more of a thing across the generations.

I’m half with Zelensky on this one and half, let’s see if they even survive the current conflict before quibbling with allies.

Passing resolutions? I could see it if the unit took-up a logo like “for Volyn!!”, but the fact is the same units that are heroes or villians or complicit in one battle or theater have played different roles in others.

I would say all I see from across the pond is the kind of wypypo shit that makes me glad the US is a melting-pot with actual racial tensions we realize we need to work on, but considering our issues with statues of fucking Confederate statues and looking at who is in office, I’mma just sit down now.

That’s what I meant though. He was distracted by fawning-over Feyd, and let spice production lag so badly for so long that the Navigators and Emperor had to bring it to his attention.

Baron Harkonnen was an Olympic-level athlete and genius until the ghonnasyphilherplaids got him, and even then, he was still at least smart. Good thing he backed the wrong player(the Emperor), and was distracted enough to not reign-in Raban until it was too late, or his serial-killer ass might have survived the story…

When Trump falls, the harder questions to answer will be about how he’s lived this long. Absurdist levels of greed and incompetence, elevated by inertia and luck alone.

Auto-repost-bots are far from anything new. Did you check with the mods of the communities in question?

Had you seen it before this post? I hadn’t. Same likely applies to a bunch of people who think its(the white girl part) awesome(better than the original - I am NOT of such opinion) and can’t wait to share it with their friends. Making it part of rage-bait just amplifies the Streisand Effect.

If "art"upsets you so much, the thing to do is promote good art instead, or do literally anything else with your day. Maybe discuss the most, or any of, recent shootings of black teenagers by cops over a water bottle or panty-hose or some other stand-in we all know amounts to Cop+“excuse”+minority=media trying to spin it and thousands of “white people suck” memes.

There are so many of those memes and events that are true and verified from end-to-end and back that anyone promoting the made-up gibberish like this one should be called-out for what they are actually doing - intentionally distracting others and discrediting the people who really care.

“Such and such minority and anyone who really cares is just sooo upset that verifying things is an un-due burden” has no place on the internet - it paints them as dumb, ignorant, likely corrupt, and serves only to drive-away anyone who can be driven-away.

To get to the point where Counter-Revolutionaries are the only ones left to purge, over 90% of the people who make revolutions happen according to all the revolutions that reached that point, you first need their help with the revolution.

If you want to avoid a spot next to me on the wall, maybe don’t promote the cults of personality that substitute for ideals once they get the chance. Skin color or the right in-group won’t save you then.

You’re literally promoting specific fan-art, spreading it far beyond what it ever would have reached otherwise, in your efforts to “end” racism. If anyone’s watering down existing racism, its you and people who act as you do.

Do you have any earthly idea how many of those “people” are bots now? Let yourself get worked-up by engagement-bait if you insist, but no-one-else is obligated to check-out places that are well-known for being places one goes to piss-off others or find something to get pissed-off about. Your “hobby” of engaging with and spreading it without substantiation vs reality doesn’t make you “more aware”, it just makes you part of the problem.

I’ve seen so many different versions of this in the last week. Blonde chick was the only one I’ve seen next to the original, like at least this one almost got the “credit where it’s due” part right, but generally, I prefer the thicker, older-looking versions I’ve seen, even though the whole premise just makes me think “yep, it’s hard to go wrong with skin and ink”.

Gamers? I didn’t even play this one. I never would have made the connection with the orignial without the side-by-side version, but I’m glad to get to see it again.

IME, rentals had shit quality, unless you were one of the first few people to rent that movie. Still watchable, mind you, but the software for ripping back then would hang on the mildest errors.

My guess was that most of the high quality torrents back then were ripped by people who bought or stole New-in-box discs, or employees at stores that rented or sold them, and don’t forget Screeners.

I always knew I would get uploaded in the singularity. “Mostly because the normies decided its un-ethical to let me die” was not on my Bingo card though. Oh lookie, a shortcut to the Torment Nexus!!

If it had 5G, I might bother, aftter toying with it as-is to see if I could just live with it.

Otoh, the way their description reads, it wouldn’t surprise me if it also filters client traffic in hot-spot mode, which would be a bridge too far to me.
