Your only criticism was that he acted in a skit for youtube?! How is that even a criticism? Was it, like, bad or something? Doesn't even seem to matter to you, the mere fact of is is enough somehow.

He does state a lot of hypothesis as fact.

It's going to be an artifact of the data collection method. The sample size is extremely small and taken during the period where top has never stopped running.

Sometimes you have a runaway process sucking up another gigabyte of your swap every second and you don't have a chance in hell of bringing up some kind of system management gui

There's no rational reason typefaces shouldn't enjoy protection.

Cows can cry. Did you even know that? When they bellow and cry actual tears for weeks or months after their children are stolen from them, we can be pretty fucking certain they are not happy about it.

Cows are herd animals. Herd animals are more socially sophisticated than even we are. They feel very deeply. They experience empathy. Do you?

Well, in 2D, one would expect x and y to map to camera up/down and camera left/right in some way, depending on where we decide the origin goes on the screen. In the game world, gravity might be +/- y; it's kind of irrelevant. In any case, z has to map to the axis the camera is looking down.

But IIRC you can just apply a global transformation and use any coordinate system you like.

Yeah, like, there are commercial looped tapes that use a spool that loads from the outside and unloads from the inside. I don't know you you couldn't DIY such a thing?

Yeah, I also remember some games allowing you to choose compressed or uncompressed textures when they first started to be supported by new cards

The Agenda: Is Monopoly Power Undermining the Canadian Food System?

19 Nov 2024

A new report from the Canadian Anti-Monopoly Project argues Canada's food system is being undermined by monopoly. And while grocery stores have become an easy target for consumer anger over the cost of food, this report says consolidation has occurred at all levels of the supply chain. The Agenda looks at the implications of the report.

It's happening, the worst mayor Toronto has ever had is removing three major recently completed bike lanes at tax payer expense. That's right, Ontario tax payers are footing the bill for Ford to meddle in Toronto municipal infrastructure. This is of course to distract us from failing healthcare and education while appealing to his mostly car centric base.

There is a protest happening Wed. 23rd of October, please come out if you can. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/rally-ride-for-road-safety-tickets-1045417761667

 

The article asks the question, why does the perception exist that bike lanes cause congestion? I think it's absurd that it does not even mention the culture war and toxic masculinity, which cast cyclists as effete, virtue signalling, holier-than-thou, radical leftists, who culture warriors feel it is their duty as a Real Man to harass, discourage, and endanger.
