  …. I’m going to stick this in a presentation at some point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It does! Pretty decently at that. Though I mostly used it so I could build for iOS. Got a refurb with apple silicon a bit later on, builds are faster, so it gets turned off quicker.

  They also seem to crash grindr at every convention despite historically railing against homosexuality at every opportunity.

  There tends to be a massive difference between what they say and what they want/do.

  Welcome to my plan! Ive got a good chunk of change set aside for some tiny/mini/micro to add to the others.

  Also looking to pick up some ’new’ laptops for me and the kids.

  They can be highly responsive to their owners. You start showing any signs of tension, they will put themselves between you and whatever is bothering you.

  When we watch my sisters dog, my wife has to use a vibrating collar for the dog. He reacts to everything as a potential threat to her, and that ramps up with my kids being there.

  If its just me walking him, he tends to just be a roaming doofus. If I add in our (little and much older) dog, he’s fine until the moment our dog reacts.

  Its actually extremely wild to me just how responsive they are to those around them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought I was clarifying without going into detail on the definition of an extranet, I don’t even know how I’d assume gender?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  An intranet is a local and private computer network.

  The internet is a network of intranets, or more accurately, a network by which computers of disparate networks can connect.

  Intra, meaning inside or within. Inter, meaning between or among.

  Interdepartmental communication would be communication between departments, while intradepartmental communication would be within a single department.

  The inter vs intra is the difference here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you think of any now?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Back then, an internet (lower case “i") was a small internal network of computers that communicated with each other.

  That is an intranet, not internet, and is still applicable as a term. You just hear people say LAN more these days.

  “World Wide Web” turned out to be a mouthful to say, so we replaced it with “the Internet” instead. Although most websites still start with “www” to represent their global reach.

  The world wide web was always just one part of the internet, specifically the portion supported by http. Ftp, email, etc existed then as well, but was not part of the www.

  As an American, I hope Canada gets some sort of barrier between it and the United States.

  I would gladly go with my family and volunteer to help build it. If my family "accidentally" ends up on the Canadian side, I'd much rather stay though and help offset the crazy you have there....

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨discord⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it like the canary method?

  Announce you aren't going to go masturbate, so when you don't say it, they know what you're doing?

  I don't understand how it came up in the first place, is it a discord for a sex toy?
