- Comment on Is gender affirming care for cis people a thing? 1 day ago:
Indeed it is. Most money in teenage gender affirming care goes into removing tits from obese boys.
- Comment on Fantastic 2 days ago:
One or two of them buy you the contents of a bank’s safe.
- Comment on I CANNOT TOLERATE 3 days ago:
Trump has never been a Cadet.
- Comment on 🍳 challenge 6 days ago:
I have not used that emoji in the last 58 years, and never missed it.
- Comment on US will allow truckers to drive 16 hours per day instead of the previous limit of 14 hours 6 days ago:
Remember the time when railroaders went on strike because they wanted to be treated like pigs?
Because pigs were treated better than railroaders. Pigs were valuable freight and deserved a long rest after being on a train for 12 hours. No similar regulation existed for the people who ran a train…
- Comment on Landlords quitting “in droves” since Renters’ Rights Act 1 week ago:
Most of them overpaid and overmorgaged. They had to rent out at the highest possible rent to generate profit. Now they get fucked by their own greed.
- Comment on Have you ever done this? 1 week ago:
Yes. And I’m working there (not KFC!) for nearly 40 years now.
- Comment on how to build a loopback device 1 week ago:
We had such a case in the company, way back before switches got smart enought to deal with this.
Our IT department was not exactly happy…
- Comment on Should the next President of the US pardon Trump for all his crap like Ford did Nixon? 1 week ago:
No, your random comment makes no sense at all.
If you took the “effort” to find it, maybe you should have provided a minimum of information. Imagine, there are people who don’t just click on random YT links provided by random people.
If you don’t want to be understood, why bother at all?
- Comment on Should the next President of the US pardon Trump for all his crap like Ford did Nixon? 1 week ago:
Instead of just throwing in a random YT link, how about some information?
- Comment on Should the next President of the US pardon Trump for all his crap like Ford did Nixon? 1 week ago:
Then that someone has slept in school, or had an American education.
- Comment on I’m Like Glue, I Stick to Other Artists 1 week ago:
He still does not understand what he did.
- Comment on Joe Rogan thinks AI running the government would ‘stop all wars on the planet’ 1 week ago:
No more wars were needed after humans were extinct…
- Comment on Should the next President of the US pardon Trump for all his crap like Ford did Nixon? 1 week ago:
Nope. Pardoning Nixon was a mistake that should not be repeated.
- Comment on Why do celebs make statements on controversial stuff and surprised when it comes with consequences? 2 weeks ago:
Being a celebrity does not automatically bring the necessary smarts with it.
- Comment on Former top civil servant received pay-off of nearly £860,000 2 weeks ago:
Keep in mind that this is compensation for losing pension, too.
- Comment on Do most Americans vote just based on name recognizing without any thinking of the platform? Or pigeon hole a candidate to one issue and vote for them? Even if that issue is way against beliefs? 2 weeks ago:
What choice do they have, literally. First past the post voting automatically leads to a two party system, and if you are not booked to one side, you have to choose your candidate based on some metric.
- Comment on What are some good, independent news outlets that are reliable? 2 weeks ago:
German ARD and ZDF are about as reliable as BBC, if you don’t mind using translation tools.
- Comment on What is the most common stupid question you hear/see? 2 weeks ago:
Can you fix my (Windows) computer problem?
Nope. I design computer chips, and don’t use Windows that much.
- Comment on Why weren't telephone lines and electrical lines not buried under ground? Which would have saved a bunch of money from upkeep and accidents? 2 weeks ago:
Don’t know why they don’t this in your place. Here, power, phone, fiber, everything is underground for years now.
- Comment on That's the worst possible view for a hotel 2 weeks ago:
We lived across the parking lot from a LIDL (ALDI competitor), and they also got deliveries from 4AM onwards.
- Comment on That's the worst possible view for a hotel 2 weeks ago:
About as good as that hostel in London. 3.5 by 3.5 meters for four people, including the bath with shower and sink, and a window to a roof, not much larger than the roof, surrounded by buildings going up lots of levels.
But it was clean and cheap.
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
Even in English, nouns have gender, even though the articles don’t show it.
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
Oh yes. The good old vowel shift, and the many faces of e.
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
It would still be a mixup. Starting from Celtic, then western Germanic (Angels and Saxons), Latin, northern Germanic (Scandinavians) already form a wild brew. French is only the latest major addition.
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
Nope, the biggest problem is the vowel shift, but that is a complicated topic. Read “Why Q needs U” for details. Thanks to RobWords for that book recommendation!
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
Gouda clearly belongs in the left column.
- Comment on Languages have rules and follow predictable patterns. French: 2 weeks ago:
Big complaints from someone with a language where the connection between the written text and its pronunciation can only be described as rather weak.
- Comment on The ultimate check 2 weeks ago:
We jumped Xilinx before we proceeded to Zync, so I don’t know the details, but loading the FPGA is not something I’d count here. E.g. a Raspberry Pi loads a bootloader before loading the kernel, and a PC loads it’s bios first.
- Comment on The ultimate check 2 weeks ago:
Depends on what CPU it simulates. Probably a RISC-V. It would be a big waste of resources.
Some Xilinx chips do have real ARM cores that do run Linux and Android.
