Yeah it’s just being angry about the fact that the Earth is rotating ball. Wanting to abolish timezones is different from Flat Earth only be degrees.

Sure the “what time is it there?” question goes away, but it’s replaced by “what are your business hours?”

Ultimately it will be daytime in one part of the world while it’s night in another part of the world. That will always cause problems.

This is actually the best approach.

Obviously they are getting timezone information otherwise the app could only display whatever time the user entered in.

If you want to sort things by the actual time, it’s simple and performant if all of the times are in the same timezone, and UTC would be the standard one to use. Pushing the timezone calculations to the client makes sense because the UTC time is correct, it’s just a matter of displaying it in a user friendly way, ie. show the time in the user’s timezone.

It can be more than superficial. If you’re restoring files from your old PC to your new one, it could make a mess of things if the user account is in a different path. Probably not a lot of people write scripts for their windows PC, but those could break.

Sure it would be a janky restore or janky script if it was explicitly specifying the path of the home directory instead of the environment variable. But environment variables have been janky in the past on windows, so it’s best to just keep the paths as consistent as possible when migrating to a new system.

Kinda shit they just wouldn’t prompt you for what you want your home director called tho.

Also, LOL at your email address.

Yeah if it were about security they’d check the version of HTTPS, SSL, TLS and all that stuff.

Hey it’s not my fault that you’re not good at logic.

you told me to doubt the tings I read on the internet. Id I didn’t doubt what you’re saying, that would be contrarian.

Yeah right? I have a VPN to prevent Google (amongst many others) from having too much of my data.

Ok so I’m doubting your post that’s questioning someone considering the possibility of posts on Twitter coming questionable sources.

But how do I know you aren’t manipulating me with what you’re saying?

Why wouldn’t he love them? He keeps breaking them without repercussions. It’s the kinds of laws Trump loves.

Apparenlty telling your customers to go fuck themselves isn’t a good business strategy.

If that’s the case, they obviously don’t want to hire black people.

That works for satellites in a Geostationary orbit, but Starlink satellites are in a Low Earth Orbit (LEO). While LEO is in space there are a tiny amount of atmospheric particles there which creates a tiny amount of drag. Things in LEO will come back down eventually.

Key bindings and a good GUI aren’t mutually exclusive.

Key bindings are great for people that use the app a lot and want to be more efficient at the tasks they do most often in it. But most people aren’t going to be learning keyboard shortcuts the first time they use an app. And if someone uses an app a few times and find it frustrating to use, they never use it enough to want to learn keyboard shortcuts to improve their efficiency with the app.

So you open any other image editor, click the rectangle select button, draw a rectangle, then select a move button beside the rectangle select tool, then it moves the rectangle you just selected and you think “That’s fucking stupid, it should’ve moved the entire image, not the rectangle I just selected!”

Really?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not faulting you or anything… it’s both absurd and sad that major alarm bells have been going off about Trump for a very long time and a lot of people don’t notice or look the other way.

Better to laugh than cry I guess.

Yeah… it’s a joke that makes me sad though.

That assumes they are paying attention to this.

Same here. Also I sometimes think about these kinds of things when I’m off the clock too. I don’t want to but you can’t exactly tell your brain to stop thinking about work stuff at 5pm. Sometimes I’m just watching TV or whatever and a thought about how to solve a work problem pops into my head.

To me it says more about how bad the management is at a company that has to resort to try to detecting mouse jigglers. Do they know so little about what the employees do that they don’t simply notice that work isn’t getting done if an employee isn’t actually working?

Ok, how about we compromise and have teachers armed with joints to protect the kids from the drug dealers?

The best defense against a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.
