I thought this would be about being s whole lot more wealthy, so I had questions ready a colleague of mine overheard from a seven year old.

“What is your estate called?”

“How many barrels of land does your family own?”

When it comes to a million euro house, I don’t think you need to behave that differently from what’s your norm. People from every walk of life can come into that kind of money, be it from inheritance, a good job, lucky investment or help from parents. Just pretend it’s a house you can barely afford and ask questions as if you’re considering buying it. Point out flaws. Or don’t, you’re allowed to reserve judgement.

I had to look it up. It flips a bit. https://doc.endlessparentheses.com/Fun/butterfly.html

Open another terminal. Killall vim.

The problem is once you really experience and notice high quality it’s hard to go back

I had this with earphones. Once I bought a better pair, going back to my old ones, it just sounded like cardboard. Don’t invest in good audio equipment, even once. It will cost you for a lifetime!

Unless the title says so, this is news to me.

77" Samsung OLED.

Marantz 6015 running 5.2.4 surround

Fyne Audio F500 rear height speakers (Tannoy went out of business)

KEF q50a upfiring speakers for front heights

2 XTZ 12" 12.17 edge subwoofers

And an Nvidia Shield for good measure.

Ps5 performs disc duties.

I got a mail about that from my union recently… I think they had some talks about it.

My university mainly ran Solaris, pretty much everything also ran on Linux. In the rare case where Windows was required a remote desktop was available.

My university probably isn’t your university though, so answers may not be worth much…

To me, a Linux user, Apple is more of a jail or a pusher. I don’t want to use it because of lock in. Oh, you have an iPod? It’s much better with a Mac. An iPhone? All your friends should also have it, and now we have this special app you can only use properly with other apple users.

No thanks.

My guy, pasta drinking straws are for you!

You don’t need to actually write it, just raise your hand and we have registered your vote, either via your computer’s camera, Google Nest, Google Assistant or inferred it by analysing the WiFi data returned by your Google Mesh network.

Yeah? Well… GPT-7 will be a CEO on LinkedIn!

If I remember the rules correctly you are allowed to fly over private property as long as it isn’t fenced off. You cannot overfly buildings without permission. You can take pictures of private property without permission as long as they don’t contain anything personally identifiable (ie. don’t take pictures of people, but no people is fine).

Try a Linux variant that isn’t arch.

Or, you know, trivially circumvent it? Compress media, break up URLs? I don’t understand how this could possibly be effective.

Pirated content don’t have ads though.

I don’t know, I think Maeomo / Meego - Nokia N9 was pretty close to ticking all boxes.

Please note that I did mean patents in the above comment. I will let the typo stay though.

My impression is that many parents are just approved by default, letting the courts determine validity… Good for the patent office, great for the lawyers.

Same, fizzbuzz was one of our tests. Nearly everyone messed it up. The telling part was how. We had a guy with 20 years of experience who demanded ample compensation write code that not only didn’t compile, but it made little sense. A lot of people were pretty good bullshitters - then after the test they went “Yeah, well… That went bad huh?”. We had a different, more difficult test that people could choose. We had one guy who did somewhat poorly on that… But asked to take the assignment home for his own sake. He was a very god hire. Not because he worked overtime or anything but because he cared.
