I don’t get this comment. Gnome is not trying to make a walled garden, and Microsoft has taken every chance they get at making walled gardens (Windows phone, windows 8 arm, various proprietary file formats and protocols), they just haven’t been very successful at it.

Or by using gnu style options on potentially bsd tar

Being alone with humans on a forest happens all the time. Hiking is a thing. And while I do grant you that rarely fucked up people do fucked up shit, most of the time absolutely nothing happens. At most there’s some nodding.

I mean, I never do that without downloading the script and reading it. I also read makepkg files. It doesn’t take that much to validate these things

The US customary units are officially defined on top of metric, and 1 fl oz is 29.5735295625 mL, but an oz is 28.349523125 g. I imagine this decision was just to fuck with people (since 1ml of water weighs 1g at sea level, at 4°)

The fsf also thinks it should be a different license apparently, given that gplv3 doesn’t force you to distribute source to users of a server, but agpl does.

Although to be fair it.migjt have more fondo with the concept not being very well tested.

No, because they don’t behave like lasers (like, they don’t move at the speed of light). They’re more like massive, short lived light sabers, which are plasma within a forcefield.

Not saying it makes sense (but shooting at moving targets that can change direction after you shoot, from a gun mounted on a platform with movement out of your control is not just math)

Apparently droids are not good enough to shoot guns. Most guns are fired by people, even the ones on star destroyers.

HTML is not even a tree (XHTML is. XML is a type 2 grammar). SGML languages like HTML are more similar to Tree-adjoining grammars.

For example <b>This<i>is perfectly</b>valid</i> html.

But it did get a UI overhaul a few years back. Seems good enough

I mean Blade Runner did do it first, as well as Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep. (But Johny Mnemonic was at it before Blade Runner)

The sprawl trilogy does have a good enough and unique plot besides all of the groundbreaking cyberspace stuff

Yeah, and ide only supported 4 drives at a time in most systems

What? Using uuids is the solution to having to change the file (that, or stable name rules). You can also use labels if you want to.

If it’s a verb it should be a button, not a toggle

Yeah, I really liked the feel of the Pixel 3. Turns out that to make a plastic coat not feel cheap all you have to do is to not use cheap plastic

The acting was generally good from pretty much every one

I mean, sure, but was the Palpatine Anakin killed a clone (therefore reducing his impact)? Is the new palps a clone? Does he have palps consciousness or just a copy of his memories? If he’s a clone, who made him and raised him? He seems pretty old, is it because of accelerated clone aging or because he’s the original?

You know, interesting sci-fi/force things to explore in a sci-fi/force trilogy.

I enjoyed Oppenheimer a lot more than The Imitation game, and I think part of it is having more context and showing more of the character’s life and accomplishments. The Imitation game didn’t even mention Turing machines or Turing completeness.

The Imitation Game even implies they’re breaking Enigma and doesn’t really emphasize Marian Rejewski, whereas Oppenheimer cameos most of the important names in the Alamo project.

when you format a 256GB drive and find out that you don’t actually have 256GB

Most of the time you have at least 256GB. It’s just you 256GB=238.4GiB, and windows reports GiB but calls them GB. You wouldn’t have that problem in Mac OS that counts GB properly, or gnome that counts GiB and calls them GiB.

(This is ignoring the few MB that takes to format a drive, but that’s also space on the disk and you’re the one choosing to partition and format the drive. If you dumped a file straight into the drive you’d get that back, but it would be kind of inconvenient)
