“very better”? Anyway…

It won’t last. Right now it’s new, but ultimately it will become an actual initiation ritual to knock it down, or perhaps a harder version to steal something out from under its nose. It doesn’t know who you are if you wear a mask (or stay out of its line or sight) and don’t carry something broadcasting your IP.

This looks like just security theater.

Meanwhile, aren’t cameras cheap? If let’s say hundreds of those were sprinkled around, maybe behind an opaque substance so you could also put up 10-100x more of them but 9/10ths being fake, and you swap them around occasionally, that might not be perfect either but could work better than a robot offering a nice, easy, fun target to play with, just like in video games. (Nobody ever enjoys video games these days though, do they?)

I’d take back those words that have hurt you

A choice to be? (If only it were that simple.)

Sorry, looks like that image cut off only halfway through the word, what it meant to say was…:

Yes cause with his big strong hands he’s definitely capable of that:-P.

Or as many of his followers say, someone “smart”(er than them).

"Actually I prefer my mother’s brother’s sixth cousin’s cleaning lady…

's friend’s neighbor’s dog. She gives me cookies sometimes."

Try assembly then - it’ll freaking blow your mind!:-)

Yes they is precisely it. Not to be confused with a Lego party (of blocks), or a Minecraft blocky party.

I mean, if they left it, possibly went to Mastodon, that sounds wonderful to me:-).

That’s what blocking is for:-)

S-s-s

S-s-s

S-s-s

S-s-s-sure!

Sooo… switch to Perl then? 😜

From the opposite angle:

(Yes… somehow the bus was only painted blue on the one side, apparently:-)

The host OS is likewise limited, but more by hardware, so it might be a small performance tradeoff, depending on whether, as you brought up, you need Linux to be ultimately in control rather than to simply run some software.

So that would not always work, ofc… but it sometimes would!:-)

Thank you for confirming that you think of me as your bitch. This after all is why I left Reddit - to come here to do exactly the same.

I hoped for that at my previous job, and they said it could happen… but it was never going to, and it was a false hope offered. Why do that to me man…? 😭

Then I come to my current job, and they have a super old Mac laptop that was barely holding on that nobody else wanted, and I’m like “yes please”!

Bc if its Windows vs. Mac, and especially if “nothing” isn’t even an option, then a million times out of a million I will choose super old, barely holding on Mac that nobody else wants.:-)

It’s a single SSH command away from my work Linux, and it has MacVim, tons of other open source software available, plus a bunch of stuff that only Mac OSX has, like Preview and other fairly nice tools, which have open source equivalents like ImageMagick and gimp, but aren’t nearly as easy to use.

I don’t need a nice car, and I went without one entirely until I moved to the Midwest where it becomes absolutely necessary, but it’s essential to have a good computer for me:-).

I never said I couldn’t back it up. I only said that if you wanted to know the answer, you could look. But ofc do whatever you please.

Or I suppose you could try to goad me yet again into doing your homework for you, and see if that works? (Surely this time, if you keep trying the same action, surely this time things will work out differently than the other time(s)?😜)

Or you could just think about how likely it is that in the entire history of computing, what are the chances that it was true at least once? Not that it matters, bc I’ve agreed with you so many times that hardware!=software and that for Macs they are tied together, and Macs are expensive, that I think we’ve both already forgotten already whatever it was we were talking about. Take the “win” already?
