I think you mean Threads. Stupendous movie

Ah, ok. What a strange default. Almost makes me think they chose that as the default to be rage bait

The fairness meter at the bottom of the article is absurd. “Unfair left leaning” like yes, how dare the libtards use statistics to show how broken our economy is

Surely there’s some sort of sandboxing that could be done? Like start by disallowing sys calls entirely

It’s humor through making you feel uncomfortable. Not everyone vibes with it

I’m so weird about this. If I’m sitting or slightly reclined, I can sleep fine without a blanket. Once I’m horizontal, 100% need a blanket

We still care about what critics have to say? When it comes to art, you like what you like. Who cares about what others think

Am I the only one surprised that this is coming from A24? Usually they back fairly original scripts, not stuff based on memes (still excited tho)

For the ones that have hazing rituals, pecking orders, and 80+ active members, yeah I agree with you.

I joined a small (~20 active members) STEM major fraternity and it was incredible. No one took it too seriously and it was just treated like a social club, which is all a fraternity is really supposed to be. It was a great way to quickly meet people with shared interests, which yeah, you don’t need a fraternity to do that, but it made things much easier for introverted, socially anxious me. Plus, STEM majors aren’t exactly the type to chat with people next to them before lecture

I can tell you from experience that you’re not going to escape the heat in upstate NY. The summer temperatures may look cooler than Arizona on paper but the humidity makes things feel so much worse

Man, I love Louis but your complaint about rambling is so valid. It only caters to the people who already agree with him and scares away people who would otherwise be convinced by the same points delivered in a better manner

Edit: since the other summaries aren’t really helpful imo, Louis is saying that Clippy is representative of a time when Microsoft software worked perfectly fine without an internet connection and served to simply help you get work done instead of use you as a revenue source

Yeah and even cable/satellite, paid services, are ad-riddled lol. Always kills me how the older generations criticize us for being financially irresponsible when they’re paying to watch a service that’s 20-25% ads

It was pretty big over here in the US, and still is with Gen X and older. Nowadays, pretty much the only reasons to get it are if you’re a sports fan or enjoy brainrot 24/7 news networks

I mean we have free over the air TV here in the states too, just don’t need a loicense for it

A TV Licence costs £174.50

Wtf is this in addition to paying for cable/satellite?

I’ve been a software engineer for almost 10 years now and lately, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to doing something else. I went into the field because coding and computing in general are genuine passions of mine but I find it difficult to be the code mill I’m expected to be, especially when getting work done quickly is prioritized over getting it done correctly. I also feel like most of the coworkers I’ve had over the years don’t have any genuine interest or intrinsic motivation, and are just in it because it pays well - which I don’t fault them for, especially in the current economy, but they’re much more likely to put up with being treated like shit.

I just don’t know what else I would do. Teaching high school CS seems fun but I’m pretty sure making that transition would take a couple years, since I gotta get a teaching degree and be a student teacher and all that, and I’m not sure I have the patience for that

That’s because a lot of people in this community are techies, most people don’t have the skills to setup a seed box so it’s much easier to just go to a streaming site in their phone browser

Can I have one

Also sometimes they juice up their numbers to appear more popular

You got a loicense for that desiring knowledge, bruv?
