I used to dual-post on Bluesky and Twitter but it's too far gone at this point -- Bluesky only from now on! tl;dr: HTTP 301, moved to bsky.app/profile/orenko…

@_joy_net @titolovesyou As a kid I absolutely loved 'Marble Blast Ultra' Still available here, painless to launch on Windows, and tons of fun! openmbu.com

@titolovesyou send me a build of this my kid would love this shit

the urge won

some faucets are too close to the back of the damn sink like y'all really couldn't spare an extra inch of aluminum to make put the water stream in the center??

if your dinner is more than pasta in store bought sauce... sorry to break it to you but you're part of the bourgeoisie

me to my dog when I take her on a walk

@r3dlvst @__silent_ 1. The function must return a value eventually, since infinite loops (w/o side-effects) are UB. 2. Only one return statement, which is only reached if k=n*n, therefore the function will always return k = n*n 3. 'n' is never modified, so easy optimization to return n*n

@__silent_ oh wow. i didn’t know cc could do that! how does it know how to optimize that?

Even better, it catches the general case too and turns this code into n*n!

Appstore that doesn't have an uninstall button on the app's page

Holding the phone with such a loose grip in this scenario qualifies you as a psychopath

every time I see someone put their unlocked phone in a pocket or purse it takes a year off my life

This bottom part of Google Maps UI is basically perfect... which guarantees that they'll ruin it soon

Just saw a car with the license plate 'RVALUE' and I really hope they have another one at home with 'LVALUE'

@ShriramKMurthi Too complex of a question for me to answer, but you might know a thing or two (on the r/brownu subreddit) reddit.com/r/BrownU/comme…

@AuskaWorks @the_aiju 1 byte times a billion is... just one gigabyte. Insignificant.

this screenshot gets less baffling when you know a little about tech and as you know more it starts to get more baffling again (why are they storing as uint8????)

AI today is very shallow, not a time saver. I want to be able to talk to my phone's assistant and say "make the text in my clipboard to all caps". I want to open my file manager and say "rename these photos so they start with the date they were taken". and it should be seamless.

@SlovakFella @LinkofSunshine Protests on college campuses force the university admin to choose between money and student wellbeing. Arresting students for peaceful protest, for example, forces admin to admit that as an educational institution, they will throw students under the bus because of donors and $$.

@OrenKoh @LinkofSunshine Why the fuck would anyone not in prison do a hunger strike? Like... In prison, the gov is responsible for your health, and they shouldn't let you die. On campus, why would anyone care whether you eat or not?

I support the protesters, but the 12-hour hunger strike might be the dumbest piece of activism I've seen in my entire life

I wish Windows told me what's ACTUALLY using my RAM This does not add up to the 29gb currently in use

@pingasliker @opinonhaver Sure it looks great, but is it really that much better than Witcher 3 or Battlefield 1? (both ~8 years old at this point) Personally I think it's like 40% better graphics, which isn't that much given it's been almost a decade.

Have noticed that we seem to be hitting some kind of plateau in terms of graphics, in that everything post like 2015-ish still looks good. Whereas in 2015 a game from like 2006 would have looked like garbage.

@Ternium1 @Pirat_Nation Surely encryption with admin access to keys is better than no encryption at all, right?

@Pirat_Nation another potential problem: bitlocker keys can/might be uploaded to MS cloud (if logged in using an MS account). Saw this on my personal laptop where i'm logged in to my school MS account. The admin of the domains thus have access to your recovery keys.

Windows 11 24H2 will enable BitLocker encryption for everyone, happens on both clean installs and reinstalls. BitLocker has been proven to impact system performance, particularly SSD performance. SSD performance can drop by up to 45% depending on the workload Even worse, if you are using the software form of BitLocker, all the encryption and decryption tasks get loaded onto the CPU, which can potentially reduce system performance as well. Anything storage-related goes wrong with a machine that has BitLocker turned on, users can lose all access to their drive contents due to encryption. —— How to disable Bitlocket for Windows Home: 1 Type and search [Device encryption settings] in the Windows search bar①, then click [Open] 2 On the Device encryption field, set the option to [Off]③. 3 Confirm whether you need to turn off device encryption, select [Turn off] to disable the device encryption function④.

@sliminality Really depends on intonation of the speaker IMO. - If they emphasize 'best' with rising tone, it's 'maybe the best I've seen' - If they emphasize 'not' and have falling tone, then it's 'great, but seen better'

How do you interpret the following sentence? "This performance was great, if not the best I've ever seen." This performance was:
