Tbh I’m just new to the computer science scene - I’ve taken one class so far on the fundamentals of programming and have only seen a real language in my free time as of yet.

It didn’t occur to me that the webpage which references another for an image would still be culpable for the space taken up by the image, because with on-disk memory management you can do tricks to reduce sizes with pointers and I just thought it would be analogous. It feels painfully obvious to me why that’s stupid now lol

Once the users browser has the path to that image…

I dunno why that didn’t occur to me, that makes sense

Do you actually have to provide the image? Couldn’t you provide a pointer to the image? Like those thumbnails that are just links on the backends but appear as images when loaded

I started playing fellowship. So now, that part of my life has become years of experience to pick up a new game fluidly and have fun with it

Just find some decency…

There is a case for ghosting. Some people sinply will refuse to stop interacting with you unless you forcibly cut it off by ignoring them. This is more or less what happened with my most recent ex

They absolutely would not notify your close loved ones if you are suspected of a crime. That would be the same as them telling you to get out of town before they find you

Maybe eat an orange

Or a banana. Depending on the type of injury you’re recovering from, potassium is like your heal over time vitamin. It helps with musculature soreness and pain!

It’s just this yeah

“getting things done”

One thing I love about my current position. I’m the guy that gets shit done, “does more work for the same pay” as you put it. But, thankfully, if I’m just not feeling it that day I just don’t, and I get no backlash. I just move slower, people see it and offer me help more than on days when I’m cruising by. No one ever asks me to do any extra work because “he’s probably already busy getting shit done”

I sympathize a lot with the song “Mr. Popular” by Double A-Ron. I had almost no friends my first two years, then suddenly half the school knew me my last two years. I still didn’t get invited to anything very often, and when I did no one actually wanted to interact with me. But people knew/thought that I was popular because tons of people would stop to say hi or whatever to me.

Edit to add: Actually in my last year there, one of my teachers had taken note of my “popularity” particularly with girls. Referred to me as a “modern day Casanova” and asked for advice on what gift to get his wife. I had had girlfriends but buying anniversary gifts for a wife was a bit out of my wheelhouse lol

The show isn’t for nerds. It’s for people who believe they are a nerd because they like sci-fi

Asian and Italian. I’ll go Japanese if you want more specific than Asian, ooh or maybe Thai. Hard one

I also use the repeated addition/subtraction method, and found that once memorizing just 3 key points, I was faster and more consistent than those that tried to memorize the tables. 65, 95 and 12*12 is all you need

Holy shit

But doesn’t surviving an explosion imply that they did in fact get exploded? Just cause it ain’t kill em doesn’t mean they didn’t go through it

Well they still got blown up didn’t they?

You even threw the word “wait” in there independently because of your preconceptions of customer support calls

Have you considered being born to a wealthy white family in the West? I hear it’s much easier

I feel like as long as you’re running nvim in Linux you could take a screenshot of the whole desktop with nvim open to pass it off as ricing

And you feel like you portrayed that ideology by belittling me for not being interested in Pixelfed?
