British Racing Green

I’m sure we had a moniker for it I’ve long forgotten. I will always have a space in my heart though for Adobe Ragemaker. Fuck Ragemaker.

To this day graphic design is why I hate Macs lol

I miss Quark

People are dumb

As an OPS guy you know what really grinds my gears? Developers not paying attention to shit like this.

We have a job in production that is a powershell script calling a powershell script calling a java applet. Now you may already be thinking “what is this abomination?” And you’re right, but that java application is set to DEBUG. IN PRODUCTION. So every time it runs it generates 1gb of logs.

Do they fix it? No of course not because if it’s not broken don’t fix it. But Jesus Christ we have people developing without understanding fundamentals like “YOU DONT LEAVE DEBUG ON IN PRODUCTION”.

Stories and themes might induce thinking by the consumer which is bad

Anna Karenina

Everyone needs to read it once in their lives. It’s the best love story ever written IMHO

Barring that, people read any Russian classic. Their literature just hits different. Say what you want about the government, but the people are so beautiful in their complexity.

Is it your body? Lol

The world is where it is because we decided to let everbody have the same voice.

Opinions are like assholes. The majority of them smell like shit. That includes yours and mine to be honest.

How many of you commenting here have skin in the game?

All the fuckX communities are toxic for the same reason.

No nuance. No complexity. Binary.

The world is not black & white it’s shades of grey.

The people usually saying stuff like this LOL

Rocking a pixel 7 still and my boys both have pixel 6. Great phones.

We all know the enforcement won’t match the usage, but I’m still ok with the decision.

This is the opposite. I was watching the transformers 40th anniversary in the theatre with my son and noticed in the 80’s we had such a hard on for hover boards. In 2005 on earth Daniel had one. In back to the future it was 2015 and they had hoverboards.

Man we fucked up. I want my hoverboard.

Lol I’m Canadian I’m talking about my friends with the real world experience growing up in the bloc.

And to throw is back how old are you? What is your experience? Pray tell what makes you an expert?

I won’t disagree but you’re (intentionally?) shifting goalposts.

As already stated and the easiest example is I’ve been told by multiple friends about waiting in the bread line for their parents for hours. As a North American imagine having to wait for the state to give you your bread for the day and having to wait 6 hours in line to get it. Is this really what people want to glaze?

This is also ignoring the rampant corruption that also existed in the USSR at the time too. You could argue it was more corrupt than we have in North America now.

1. I am 49
2. My friends are older and younger but the messaging is the same
3. USSR fell in 1991
4. Who are you to define “meaningful”?

I have many friends that were children of the block like you. Talk to them and they all share your same opinion. It is fucked up today the western youth is now glazing on the old USSR days when you talk to everyone who experienced them and they were garbage.

Personally speaking I don’t want to have to wait in a bread line every morning.

Not everything needs a single word to encapsulate it. I’m not an idiot and I’m sure neither are you.
