Should have billed Bezos for it

Mechanical CPU doing 862 RPM.

Nice, especially with a solar panel at the top. But street lamps near roads are prone to accidents, and I’m sure a big block of Li-Ion in the base would make these way more risky.

In a normal country, a doctor endorsing teen pregnancy would get their licence suspended.

Encrypt hard drive and keep the key in RAM. Could be recovered with a cold boot attack but that’s very advanced. The DOS virus ONEHALF would run as a daemon encrypring a block on the drive on each boot and intercept reads/writes to the encrypted part as if nothing ever happened. Only after encrypting ½ of the disk, it would reveal itself with an ominous

Dis is one half.
Press any key to continue...

The decryption was eventually cracked by ESET and they developed a tool to recover the drive.

Mapy.com too :( They locked previously-free features behind a paywall. The 1.5 years old Android app version 9.55.2 still works though

In some languages the base layer of the number row is taken up by weird characters so people prefer the numpad to holding Shift, and laptops without one sell poorly

“How’s the driver of the electrodes’ GPIO, Doc?”

“Probably won’t fit in flash with the kernel and Apache. But I could rewire the electrodes to UART instead, that seems more practical than interfacing with that weird pulse generator.”

I don’t see any clear giveaways but the bagel cups’ shadows look very much not parallel. It could be a wide-angle lens doing its thing though.

“Nobody’s got fired for buying IBM or Microsoft.”

Can we update this saying for enshittification?

Python needs whitespace tho

They don’t know how this one will go and GIMP 3 is in production. Franchises are crazy

The camera’s USB interface tends to be rather slow, sometimes not even using the full USB 2.0 speed. USB-C card readers sometimes have USB 3.0 and internal ones are very fast, so you’re only limited by the medium’s read speed. And it allows a card swap if you have 2 so you can keep recording with a brief pause.

Use one without connectivity. Or get a microSD to SD adapter and a Wi-Fi-enabled FTP SD card… but I don’t think they make these anymore, much less durable, fast, high-capacity ones. Or get a USB-C microSD reader and keep it in the car if your phone has no free microSD slot.

You mean Proton

So much “nerd” paraphernalia is BS… This one is ridiculous (one doesn’t get to “be a programmer” by sorting and collecting 10 personality traits as if they’re goals or achievements) but at least it shows varied syntax in the C language: the number of unique keywords is very high.

To show you’re a nerd, don’t go with obvious “look, this is what I am” but use dogwhistles (Conway’s Game of Life or fractals can look like knitting patterns) or to be obvious, some things you personally like or made. Badge with your distro’s logo or mascot, code you actually wrote or its output, wearable blinkenlights project… Just be more focused on your interests than yourself.

#define unlocked endl

Yeah, nobody writes that except to make a single joke

You are correct, that is simplified. The whole line is

int personality = sizeof(goals) / sizeof(goals[0]);

To get the length of an array in C, it’s necessary to divide its memory footprint by the size of a single element!

BTW you can see what appears to be ASCII in the background of that image. You can decode it if you’re bored.

Here are some of the missing pixels:
