I removed Windows and all NTFS partitions (which had useful data so I had been mounting them on fuse) and recreated all partition tables on the HDDs previously partitioned by Windows.

That was after my UPS failed and showed me how much of a hassle NTFS is, even if you don’t have pending writes.

Hey! No badmouthing peasants.
They grow your food.

There are pointers in Assembly?
All I remember is memory addresses, stored in memory locations.

I learnt about that too and apparently, it is treated as a problem in China, where there are quite a few cases.

tl;dr normal ⇒ usual
normal ⇏ desirable

<rant> It is normal, same as it was normal for most people to die after being treated by a doctor in the pre-modern-medicine period.
Same as it is normal for people to start needing eye correcting glasses around 25y (quote from a qualified professional doctor).
Same as it is normal to be absolutely drained after just 8 hours of working on a desk, because it is also normal to have a closed-loop AC system with the only opening in the room (the main door) having people smoking tobacco on the other side. </rant>

+1 for using “you’re” instead of what the chap above did

Most uses of ‘retard’ are in variable names like B43legacy_OFDMTAB_ADVRETARD but we also have

That explains the sudden drop, with legacy code being removed

Guess I’ll use that as my gateway to OpenGL

Do you also need to be drunk to be proud of it?

Sorry. The best you can get today is DOGE.

knife thing is annoying

Yeah, that was the first thing I found out, looking at the picture.
One would have to tilt the holder backward to take out the knife and then make a very unnatural feeling motion to get it towards themselves. Even worse if there is no space behind the rack (there is a window in the picture that will enable that if opened)

To put better comical effect to that line, you can add a separate hyperlink to each word of the sentence, each leading to a separate article of one of the projects abandoned by Google.

Even better if all of them were widely used ones, affirming your point.

I would love to talk about Qt Framework and QML, here, but QML doesn’t seem particularly great either.
Although I have only used QML, so I might only be knowing the pains of it and not the others.

Whenever I use ffmpeg, I am also using the browser.
Or I am using a pre-made script.

There are 2 types of old people now:

1. those who see it as magic
2. those who made the magic

I find it hard to understand how people are able to kiss the ground without the thought getting in their mind that - someone probably spat/pissed in that place not too long ago.

Isn’t that probably a feature, which would then also be advertised to the end user? Maybe for photo-artists and such

Just complete your KRAs beforehand and hand over the project to the Junior Dev, before then.

That’s the joke

Neh I’m good.
I’ll just stay in a different country during the purge.
