It's almost exactly like that only if the tin hat guy would turn out to be right every single goddamn time in hindsight. RMS is... a character at best, but he sure has some predictive powers.

Just commenting to let you know that you're not crazy, that guy is a dumbass.

For a front loader you want to make sure it's not too clumped. It'll take WAY longer if you put it in as a wad because it needs to balance everything to centrifuge. I've got one dog blanket which I basically can't centrifuge at all because it holds on to ALL the water and unbalances the whole washing machine.

There's no firm delineation between scripting or programming. In many cases it boils down to "scripting is when you program in a language I deem lesser" which is just rude.

Coding is just the old timey word for encoding. I.E. basically doing what an assembler would do automatically these days. Any programming language in common use involves much more than that and deserves to be called programming.

Hitch broke at almost exactly the official Tesla number

The hitch broke at almost exactly the claimed towing capacity. Of course that means if you're towing exactly at capacity and hit the tiniest bump you've now snapped your car in half.

Yeah but just imagine how good it'd feel to scratch

Honestly I've never had an easier time getting that sort of thing to work than on linux. As soon as there's a font installed providing emoji pretty much any program will pick up on that. Even got a Toki Pona font working just by installing it. Now I can IRC in languages no one speaks!

Probably the tool brand with the best bang-for-buck ratio. They tend to not be the most great feeling tools, but they sure work well for the price.

I dunno how the lidl is over where you're at, but here they have a web shop where they sell their parkside tools.

The potential harm in the comic is lack of buff dudes, the potential upside in the classic is more good people being alive.

It's changing the problem from definite harm and potential upside to definite upside and potential harm.

It makes sense people value potential harm different from potential upside.
