He's flooded the zone with shit to the point that we can't focus on any of it with the attention it deserves.

TBH this is why I've never used Telegram.

I would love to see Hillsong get disbanded under the same circumstances in Australia.

Yep. It's not Inkscape.

Do PhotoShop and Illustrator both do full vector editing? I never paid to find out.

Photoshop can't draw capsicums so GIMP is still better.

America was once ahead of Russia, but since the direction changed and both countries are going backwards, Russia is ahead.

I have faith the US will take the lead in this race to the bottom.

I've set my phone so it will erase if someone enters the PIN backwards (GrapheneOS duress code). It would be fun to watch the authorities wipe the phone.

I'd probably get deported over it, but whatever.

I spent so long working with protocols over RS232 that hex and binary operators became like a second language.

I remember a grad student was doing some frontend work on it around 2015 and it blew his mind that we'd store 8 bools in a byte and call it a "status flag".

Before even typing "notepad" after hitting Win+R, I realised I could just paste my text directly into the run dialog and re-copy it.

The backend and frontend on the product I work on are like this.

As long as you remember that booleans are not strings and should always be parsed if they are, this won't be a problem.

I am yet to see a boolean.parse() implementation in the wild that is case sensitive.

Albo will tell 'em to get stuffed.

Leave the battery in and you have a free UPS. Perhaps set it capped at 80% charge to increase its lifespan.

My server is always my old desktop hardware. It's a 4th-gen i5 with 16GB RAM and it's keeping up fine. I have thrown quite a lot of work at it too. If you avoid containers, you can serve 20 services off it no problem.

I too, was worried about power costs. Every time I do the maths, the new hardware will be obsolete by the time I make the money back in savings. If you're concerned about environmental impact, the initial manufacture of hardware does more damage than running it over its lifetime.

Dedicated (1U rackmount) servers are always loud and power-hungry. I they idle at 130w and sound like a hairdryer that's been left on.
