What a time to live in. Linux being used to give people less choice. Incredible. I’m not buying fire devices anymore. Fuck Amazon. Only reason I ever bought them to begin with was that they were cheap Android devices. I can just buy shit from Onn now I guess.
I’ve played fairly casually since Destiny 2 (I played the first game a lot more and the 2nd launched in a very sorry state). They should have ended the game with The Final Shape. This new stuff is dumb and I couldn’t even give enough fucks to complete the new campaign which I always have done even playing causally. I think that was the final nail in the coffin.
This game never drew me into the grinding cycle because it wasn’t worth the time. Grind for gear for hours… To what end? It’s just min maxing. First game you could get broken special shit from the raids. Now? I don’t have 4 hours to sit and do that for some random junk that’s not really different from the other junk that usually drops.
Prime Day and other sales push those prices down pretty regularly to the point I think most people are like “ah fuck it why not” and just grab one
Kindles are cheap. That’s pretty much it. I don’t think it’s a great mystery. Amazon subsidizes their hardware to get you into their ecosystem even more.
I remember when Snapchat was extremely popular for messaging. One of the worst apps I’ve ever used. Just an absolutely atrocious UI.
Same lol. Macrohard Doors here we come!
Yessir I’ve basically run into all of that. It’s fucking infuriating. It really is like talking to a toddler at times. There seems to be a limit to the complexity of what it can process before it just starts messing everything up. Like once you hit its limit, it will not process the entire thing no matter how many times you fix it together like your example. You fix one problem and then it just forgets a different piece. FFFFFFFFFF.
Dude forgetting stuff has to be one the most frustrating parts of the entire process . Like forgetting a column in a database or just an entire piece of a function you just pasted in… Or trying to change things you never asked it to touch. So freaking annoying. I had standing instructions in it’s memory to not leave out pieces or modify things I didn’t ask for and will put that stuff in the prompt and it just does not care lol.
I’ve used it a lot for coding because I’m not a real programmer (more a code hacker) and need to get things done for a website, but I know just enough to know it’s really stupid sometimes lol.
I’m split on this. On the one hand if they didn’t have self checkout, they’d need more checkout people. On the other hand, before self checkout they didn’t really give a fuck if you had to wait in line (especially Walmart holy shit that was one of the biggest reasons I never went there, the fucking checkout line).
Business Insider so basically yes. I’ve never seen a “news outlet” blow business people as hard as them so I guess the name fits.
Most systems these days do rewrites (like Apache mod_rewrite) to keep the query parameters out of the URL. Even for pagination. It’s not necessarily on by default though because they don’t know what environment you’re in so you need to do things to enable it (like copy a .htaccess file and enable it in settings).
I don’t know these idiot board members think is going to happen after blocking the vote. It’s going to go MORE viral now and they’ll get voted out even harder.
Article talked about that some here: https://nypost.com/2025/07/12/us-news/arizona-homeowner-david-martin-fined-100-repeatedly-for-giving-out-free-water-in-heat-amid-clash-with-hoa/
Our Democrat governor signed it. Why she signed this I still don’t really understand. She’s been using her veto power quite a bit and yet this one gets to go through. Ridiculous.
