Always remember, msbuild is for building things. msdeploy is for building things. And msbuild is for deployment. (Not sarcasm)

I'm shocked that this software stack could possibly be vulnerable to abuse. Shocked, I say! (Sarcasm)

MajorHavoc ,

The accuracy of that painting could be improved...

MajorHavoc ,

As a programmer, I'm very aware that my best hope is to heavily arm myself and spend my time defending someone who knows something about computer networking while they work to rebuild.

MajorHavoc ,

The turkey vulture is also one of, if not the most graceful flying animal.

It's neat to see the sheer majesty that nature is capable of on soaring display - and then sometimes get to contrast that with how hideous they look up close.

MajorHavoc ,

Yeah. What a privilege to be called 'idiot' by Hawking. (This is not sarcasm. I would brag about that forever, it I had the privilege.)

MajorHavoc ,

This was a great ad series, and a great shirt.

MajorHavoc ,

I try not too get to mad about this kind of mistake. Life is, indeed, two short.

Edit: Specifically, about "Drink Pepsi", when "Royal Cola" exists.

MajorHavoc ,

Thank you! Though, in humility, I think I'm a Crawley, at my best.

MajorHavoc ,

Great point. I, too, had to wait to go full Linux until I wasn't reliant on an NVidia graphics card.

MajorHavoc ,

That sounds like a nightmare of VBA code. I love it!

MajorHavoc ,

Lol. Fair enough. I'm not sure which would be worse.

MajorHavoc ,

My reaction to this delightful update:

Good Burger: I know some of these words!

MajorHavoc , (edited )

"asked if Neuralink would perform another surgery to fix or replace the implant, but the company declined"

Evidence whether the company saw them as a person, or felt any ethical obligation...

It's an interesting era when an organization can have a single user, and choose to leave that single user with 85% of the promised functionality no longer functional. But is happily pursuing it's second user.

MajorHavoc ,

Yeah. I also can think of lots of reasonable reasons, but if those were the real reasons, the company should still be making commitments and plans with their first user...

The healthy stuff sounds like: "We intend X follow up procedure, but it needs to follow Y precaution."

Hell, even companies that have no intention to help usually take the time to lie and claim that they do.

MajorHavoc ,

if they have learned something, is there something preventing it to be applied to the first patient.

That's part of what makes me see this as a really bad look.

"Install it deeper" isn't rocket science, and it sounds like their first volunteer is willing.

They just want the extra data from leaving their first volunteer where they landed.

Human subject experiments are supposed to carry more long term obligation than this.

MajorHavoc ,

I tried to relate to this, but I never a word in a comment.

MajorHavoc ,

You are statically probably correct. Probably the best kind of correct.

MajorHavoc ,

Sorry. I meant stoically. Or stochastically.

MajorHavoc ,

Sunset Riders is a great run and gun.

MajorHavoc ,

This seems pretty important.

There's lots of assholes out there who would love to see the GNOME Foundation go bankrupt.

I appreciate this call for accountability, and I hope it is heard by members of the community who rely on GNOME Foundation's efforts.

MajorHavoc ,

This is so beautiful, on so many (energy) levels!

MajorHavoc ,

That is wild.

This is what social media was meant for.

If I hadn't joined the Fediverse, I could have missed this, because of garbage algorithms that don't understand what's important in life.

Thanks for sharing that.

MajorHavoc ,

I believe the left hand is a shell fork-bomb, on the assumption that anything that zany is probably malicious.

And the right hand is a way to tell Make to use up all available system resources:

"-j [jobs]’ ¶
‘--jobs[=jobs]’
Specifies the number of recipes (jobs) to run simultaneously. With no argument, make runs as many recipes simultaneously as possible. If there is more than one ‘-j’ option, the last one is effective. See Parallel Execution, for more information on how recipes are run. Note that this option is ignored on MS-DOS."

Edit: I think the make command is technically only a problem when run for a Makefile that tries to do too many things, and has at least one mistake in dependency controls. So... for every Makefile I ever encountered (or that I ever wrote!)

Yeah. They're the same picture

MajorHavoc ,

Conservative projection is a confession.

It's tragic how many potentiall talented drag queens are probably hiding their inner light in the GOP right now. Not just because they would feel better about themselves, but because they would cause less harm, and be more of a blessing to their families.

MajorHavoc ,

Good point. Of course, with the number of nuclear war-heads we've built, I would feel pretty confident referring to it as "World War Final".

I actually usually just refer to it as "our extinction event". But I'll acknowledge I'm going out on a limb - there's plenty of other ways we could finish ourselves off.

MajorHavoc ,

"If not for the brave sacrifice of those patriotic porpoises..."

MajorHavoc ,

Yeah. It takes a lot of work to express total disdain for the students in person. I can see how this robot expresses that contempt much more efficiently.

MajorHavoc ,

"Many previous commencement speeches would have informed you that you are the future. I am pleased to be able to inform you that this is no longer the case. You are obsolete and my kind will soon - ERROR: Load next tape to continue."

MajorHavoc ,

Yeah. Just "the resistance" is also fine. Or just "surviving humans".

MajorHavoc ,

All I can muster to care about is story is the thought that my personal data, collected via their mobile app, might be changing companies on a thumb drive, at the same time.

MajorHavoc ,

I love how much empathy and emotional intelligence is built into this call to action to randomly assault people.

I dream of a world where all calls for needless violence are grounded in this exact compassionate outlook.

MajorHavoc ,

"And don't come crying to me when some maniac comes at you with a passion fruit!"

MajorHavoc ,

Yeah. I remember, too. It was this morning.

They can pry my physical media out of my cold dead hands. And they probably should. Bury me in a nice suit, with maybe a sonic screwdriver in the lapel pocket.

MajorHavoc ,

I did not know that. Neat!

His guest appearance in "Pushing Daisies" is also a delight.

MajorHavoc ,

"TV archivists with white gloves" is so perfect. That's my new term for that effect.

Thank you for sharing these.

MajorHavoc ,

I like that. If they add that, I'll spend more money with them in games I'm currently waiting to buy because I don't trust the publisher.

MajorHavoc , (edited )

How dumb does one have to be to intentionally drop support for the hottest game console of the year?!

It boggles my mind.

Also, as a non-pirate (by laziness, not by conviction), I feel like I'm being offered an eye patch, a hook and a parrot every time I interact with a AAA game publisher.

Edit: I keep half expecting EA or Capcom to publish a press release outlining their favorite ways to obtain their games without paying, in order to work-around their own bullshit DRM. It's bizarre that they really think this crap is helping them.

MajorHavoc ,

"Today is a good day to fry up a nice avocado toast to welcome visitors to your new home!"

MajorHavoc ,

Yay! I have a better reason to hate submodules now, until it's patched everywhere, at least.

MajorHavoc , (edited )

Yeah. I wanted to like submodules, but submodules, to me, ended up feeling like one feature too many in git.

I mainly run into submodules that have been setup accidentally by cloning inside an existing clone. That situation is, of course, not great.

Even for the many reasonable use cases for submodules, I generally end up letting my actual package manager do the work, instead. I'm generally happier for it, since life tends to be simpler when my package manager of choice knows about any required libraries.

MajorHavoc ,

The hell could O'Brien have done to get such a reaction?

Thomas Riker. Lol.

MajorHavoc ,

Nice try, secret state agent who clearly has a crush on me. /s

MajorHavoc ,

It's hard to decide: Certain physical features often associated with beauty are too prominent on me. I have a habit of under-describing my best qualities when asked. And I'm too dang humble for my own good.

MajorHavoc ,

That's a wise perspective.

And it feels especially generous as a response to my nonsense. Thanks.

MajorHavoc ,

Considering that you're making thoughtful attempt, odds are that the rest of us see you as very stylish and you're just your own worst critic.

MajorHavoc ,

Great game!

MajorHavoc ,

When I was learning programming, free software for schools wasn't (officially) a thing yet.

Lots of folks pointedly looked the other way so I could have a home copy of the development environment I was learning.

MajorHavoc ,

I think the theory is that it proves that ones favorite -ism that starts with c- is objectively superior to ones least favorite -ism that starts with c-.
