all NVIDIA knows is hot chip and lie, etc.

Pretty cool how From Software invented Japan to have a setting for Sekiro.

Me: Wow things sure are materially worse in a lot of ways these days huh

That Guy: No there have always been bad things, you fool

Doing a ritual to summon the ghost of Charles Dickens, someone who spent his adult life championing the poor and bringing to light the evils of workhouses and prisons which were used to punish the poor while making a profit off of them, to tell him that the latest adaptation of his “scare the shit out of rich people” book makes a point of saying “no look maybe Scrooge is justified in thinking the poor are all scammers”

ÖBB is auctioning off 20 RIC dining cars certified for 200km/h, with a starting price of 8825€ per car. Honestly, I'm sure they will be auctioned off in no time.

guy who uses implicit and explicit violence to dictate how the world works: look that's just not how the world works

we just wrote a code comment we're proud of:

Though this can be counterintuitive to programmers, it is normal for fonts to draw outside their bounds. Font metrics are primarily intended to advise about graphic-design topics, which are socially defined and do not necessarily obey mathematical identities, even when such identities are offered as explanations of their meaning.

Instead, the mathematical meaning of these metrics serves as a first layer, a literal meaning which provides a reference point for additional layers of meaning to be added atop, in the same fashion as how the duration of a musical measure is not actually fixed during a live performance.

There are very good reasons that programmers find this state of affairs deeply saddening, but there is nothing to be done but deal with it.

I need to find a very specific demographic of people:

Transgender Germans who STARTED their HRT using a service called "GenderGP", or at the very least have experience using it IN GERMANY.

I am on the verge of joining their plan to start my HRT, but I am scared of committing so much money out of pocket to them without reassurance that they work, that their services are good, and that all of it works in GERMANY specifically, and how well their services and paper prescriptions work with local healthcare / pharmacies.

PLEASE comment if you have this experience and are open to talk to me about this. 💜

Sounds like the FDA discovered that radio waves are on a spectrum

the ultimate litmus test for europeans is asking how they feel about arabs, black people and romani

I think people should talk more often about how the claim that "piracy harms the industry" has been repeatedly debunked by various studies, one of which was commissioned by the EU
