Corn syrup has wrecked ice cream for me. I can’t stand it and actively avoid buying ice cream with it.

I miss the old Bryer’s

That’s nice, but what we really need right now is the scat man

This is why I prefer “smart” controls for dumb things. If the control gets bricked I can replace it or the thing will still work without it.

Based on John Oliver, I’d say the later is true.

100% agree.

I configure my editor to use 3 space characters per tab. I’ve worked with people who prefer tabs represented as 2 or 8 or just about any number. But I can look at the same code as them worth my preferred look.

Also works best for line length restrictions. A tab is a single character and always is.

I assume they are only given a short lecture with a low bar quiz. The rest of the 21 weeks is spent in gym class and training in weapons.

For anyone like this to be a good thing there needs to be a system of checks and balances. There should be an appeal process that is low effort and low or zero cost. There should also be a verification process by a third party before anything can be added.

I do, but I do it on my terms when I know it is stable. I don’t allow anyone to push updates to my system.

I don’t remember much about my OS courses from 20 years back, but I do recall something about walls between user space and kernel space. The fact that an update from the Internet could enter kernel space is insane to me.

This is a tale as old as time. We did this in the late 90s at an office supply store. Every Sunday night changing price tags “ooh guess there will be a sale on resume paper in the next few weeks”. 1-4 weeks out we would increase prices on some items just to lower them back when the ad came out.

Well there are only 2 choices in a FPTP election system.

Maybe? People willing to copy and distribute this content will always be around and you will never catch them all. People willing to pay a discount or seek not and find said content will always be around. And there will be those who will watch a show or a movie because it is freely available, who would never pay a dime for it.

They will never end piracy and I’d argue it might actually be bad for business if they did.

I wasn’t discounting anyone. I wasn’t even offering a solution. Simply an anecdote.

Well said.

I grew up playing soccer on a coed team. At a certain age you could be picked or tryout for a more advanced league. Up until highschool we were devided by skill not gender and I have no problem admitting there were more than a few girls that were much more skilled than I was.

Don’t punish the taxpayer, punish the troll.

Requiring a government agency to pay a penalty will only ensure the agency will work with less efficiency. In turn, ineffective agencies are further criticized and will become a target for privatization, which only ever serves special interests and those with means.

Put an end to this one and for all. Pass a law that requires any entity which files suit on the basis of being a parent holder must show that they use the patent to earn income from sales that are proven to be independent from them and their officers. If the suit is only being filed for easy money, they should be fined heavily.
