Splitting hairs, but a green card only means permanent residency.

Relevant XKCD.

The premise is sort of hilarious. “Everybody’s just blindly copying this one kind of network. We made the bold decision to copy the other one.”

“Show the cow a picture of fire.”

The lobster is a choice.

Before? What, in primary school?

Backing up my Saved page from reddit, I found that Dall-E post from four years ago. It is buck-wild how far all of this has come… in image generators. Text still fundamentally sucks because people keep trying to use an improv partner as an oracle. And its artistic uses are of low value because text was always dead easy to crank out.

And all I though to comment was “generate nude Tayne,” about four hours before the American coup.

Moderation is a necessary evil. Otherwise everything becomes /r/Funny with different decor.

No, that’s trolling. It’s an ad hominem phrased to sound polite to other people but infuriating to whoever you’re talking to, no matter what they said. An all-purpose no-effort nuh-uh.

What’s the use case for case insensitive file names?

Human comprehension.

Readme, readme, README, and ReadMe are not meaningfully different to the average user.

And for dorks like us - oh my god, tab completion, you know I mean Documents, just take the fucking d!

__MACOSX folders hither and yon.

Would you recognize irony if you sat on it?

Two things can’t be bad at the same time, I guess.

This doesn’t have a damn thing to do with what’s on TikTok.

Wat.

1 + 1 = “11”.

Debatable.

Perl is a write-only language.

HTML5 applications goddamn well ought to be first-class programs, as a totally platform-agnostic realization of Turing completeness.

Instead you get every application bundled with its own whole-ass operating system and virtual machine. For a fucking webpage. Yep! No other way to run that on a modern computer!
