  Do you know what we call someone with an extensive collection of Nazi war memorabilia?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Real Struggle 😔⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had a user come to me with a PDF issue my app was generating. They kept getting the document in landscape, and wanted it on portrait. They were the only user with this issue, and it stumped me. I checked the underlying code, and everything was set to portrait mode, except the last page, which contained a sketch and was set to landscape mode.

  I asked him to show me exactly what he did when he made the PDF. Instead of just downloading the provided PDF, he had his system set to open it on Adobe Reader. He would then use a PDF printer (Microsoft, or cutePDF) to save the doc. His printer was set to landscape.

  Now hide Spiderman and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in there somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you people all bots?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a bot, but I do bot things in my spare time. Like beeping and booping.

  There’s a setting to remove bots from your feed, but that requires bots to self-report. I haven’t seen any obvious bots.

  Agreed. Imagine being Greek.

  Exactly. So just an irrational response.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CAPTCHAs make me lowkey mad⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I get captchas on a lot of websites when I use a VPN. On the VPN, it’s impossible to solve the captcha, it just keeps repeating. The only way to pass the captcha is to turn off the VPN.

  I’m using a lot of archive sites lately.

  This is just poor engineering. They could save money by using jam nuts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't they have simpler names for brain disorders, where perhaps even the person suffering the disorder might be able to remember the term themself?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They shortened the name of PTFE to Teflon because they wanted to sell it. Once there’s a market for frontotemporal dementia it will get a short name too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do farts at least nominally increase the overall temperature of the room in which they are extruded?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  BTW, If one was already profoundly hypothermic, would it be unwise to fart?

  Assuming the ambient air temperature is cold enough to induce hypothermia, farting is fine. Bringing cold air into the body is the problem. You’d be better off if you stopped breathing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re tipping too much.

  In Michigan we passed a law requiring minimum wage for all tipped workers by 2030(?), and they FLIPPED THEIR SHIT. Said they would lose too much money in tips if they made minimum wage. The republicans rolled it back below minimum (still a small increase), and I’m not sure where it stands right now.

  If tipped workers are going to fight against wage increases so much, then I’m okay reducing their tips.

  Heinen said “My job as a leader in my space is to build the best technology that customers are asking for. It’s not my job to play the ethics game because our elected officials will eventually figure that out. I have full faith in the American people to decide who to elect and what to vote on.”

  Oxygen plasma sounds like something that could very easily set something else on fire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going to tell you what I did. Don’t take mental health advice from some asshole in the internet.

  I had two extra voices in my head. One would wait for me to be alone, and then bring up all the minutia in my life I was embarrassed about. The other would bring up my most depressing moments and just groan in my ear and distract me.

  The first one I built a cabin for, and put him in it. Whenever I would think about one of those embarrassing moments, I’d put it in a plastic garbage bag, open the door to the cabin, and throw the bag as hard as I could into his face. Gradually I needed him less and less. Eventually he disappeared, so I just put the garbage bags in a can outside the door. Nobody lives there now, and the cabin has decayed into just a rough mound of dirt. The flowers from the window-box are growing in the mound.

  I was more viscous with the other one. Every time he showed up, I imagined grabbing him by the neck and just pummeling his face bruised and bloody. Eventually he disappeared too.

  I can remember those embarrassing moments or the causes of my depression without hurt now. They don’t have power over me anymore.

  Didn’t Microsoft try this bullshit with Windows 8? I don’t want a phone interface on my laptop, and I don’t want a laptop interface on my phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Am I Being Silly Holding $77,000 in Cash Instead of Investing It?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The average credit card interest rate was recently 25.37%, per Forbes Advisor. If you owe, say, $40,000 and you’re being charged 25%, you’re looking at paying $10,000 per year just in interest.

  I refuse to take this article seriously. Nobody responsible enough to have $77,000 cash-on-hand carries credit card debt month-to-month.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I fucking hate Microsoft search. Microsoft controls the OS, they control the file system, why the fuck do they suck so bad at file search?

  As I get older, I realized I’m just not in that much of a hurry anymore. And I really, really don’t want to hit a kid, so I’ll drive slow thru towns.

  Freeway though, that’s 80 mph.
