I develop infrastructure automation for one of the world’s largest private computer clusters.

I do it almost exclusively in Vim with command line git.

I’m the most productive member of my team.

And holding up that entire stack is philosophy.

Yeah, this is why people don’t trust science. They look at the surface level of the PRESS RELEASE and then assume scientists are just making shit up.

There’s a ton of work done behind the pictures and there’s lots of revisions and changes as new evidence comes in. AND there is disclaimers on ever single “artist rendition”

Science is fucking hard, and the pretty pictures of the press release are just the fun parts that they use to advertise their hard work.

Then people take a brief look at the picture, call bullshit, then go smear them online.

Just inject it straight into your brain

I use qbittorrent, and even popular or legitimate torrents get zero uploads.

Can you explain how this works? My seeding is garbage and I’m not sure how to set it up to work better.

Seeding is crippled due to no port forwarding. You can download, you just can’t really share back.

You have to get the file from Amazon first in a format that deDRM works on. That’s the trouble here.

Kindle for PC still works, but you have to find an old version and disable updates.

Then a Mac user forwards your email to someone and your email header doesn’t show your email address in the forward and nobody down the line knows who sent the original email.

Cause when your email gets forwarded, the header doesn’t always go with it.

I’ve had to start putting my email address in my signature due to people not being able to contact me cause of that.

Kwikset keypad works great for me. There’s a keyhole, a real button keypad, and the batteries last a while with quite a bit of warning before they’re actually dead.

I mean… Electronics and the Internet are also following the laws of physics. But I get what you mean, levers should be the only activation, and gravity should be the only requirement.

That being said, electronics in our devices do tend to reduce the amount of water and power that appliances use. Dumb devices are extremely inefficient, even though there are fewer points of failure.

It sucks that a 1950’s fridge can still function just fine today, but it also is a bigger strain on the power grid, and a leak in the refrigerant would destroy the ozone.

But why is there a… rock? donut hole? geode? hush puppy? Next to the woolly mouse? I feel like it’s a pun I’m missing.

It’s actually not, because the exit condition is “when you get the joke”

Airplanes fly typical routes, so it’s possible, but not guaranteed.

I write code every day at my job. I use vim.

It does everything I need it to do, and it works exactly the same way on every system I touch, and functions the same way since I started using it decades ago (aside from being able to use arrow keys now instead of hjkl)

If I HAVE to do any coding on Windows, I use notepad++.
