Hi I’m Derek Bum!
Say goodbye to bloatware and dirty OS-es with new Computer Gun™!
This old laptop is sluggish, but with three shots from Computer Gun…
BANG! BANG! BANG!
And it boots up like new!
This is just the standard operating mode for an English chav circa 2010.
Atomic Habits.
As someone who is likely on the spectrum, it was like someone gifted me a user guide for life where other self-help books have either leaned a lot on the emotions of things or tried to cram all sorts of philosophy down my throat.
Lot’s of common sense ideas around how to turn what, where, and who you want to be into actually achievable goals and genuinely helped me figure out who I want to be for myself and not for other people.
I wouldn’t say it has any groundbreaking or radical ideas in it, but the structure and presentation of the simple ideas really helped me work out some life things for myself.
I didn’t know there was an IKEA in Cockfosters (North London)
"Hello, is that DarkHorse comics?
Boy, do I have an epic 5-phase graphic novel for you!"
Then ascended to become pure EM spectrum as his final Gigahertz form.
As an engineer I would like to second this motion to get “Mach Yeet” adopted as an IEC standard technical term.
Title of the paper:

Dog Soldiers.
It is known as the British Predator. You can see the low budget on the screen, but my god it’s excellent. Do not watch the trailer, it’s shit and will give you a bad impression of the film.
With a username like that I can only assume a level of expertise I cannot reach as I am follicle-ly challenged. I shall take your advice on board 😊
When I started getting nose hairs. Now I pluck those suckers and they bring anything else out with them.
I should also point out that when I get my hair cut, the barber also does a wax removal.
“I ain’t no bitch” that’s some strong whining that makes you look like a bitch.
Where’s your stoic attitude of “suck it up and deal with it” Mr Manly Man?
Christ, I’ve eaten peaches that didn’t bruise as easily as his ego.
I use multiple browsers for different things:
Vivaldi - for work or personal projects because the workspaces and tab stacking allows me to keep an “L1 cache” of all the sites relevant to parts of projects I’m working on. Then when I’m done with that work the useful ones get bookmarked for future use.
Firefox - personal browsing i.e. watching stuff, shopping, etc. because I wanted off chrome so I could continue to use adblockers.
Brave - research purposes.
Opera - for the occasional use of a VPN for getting around geoblocking.
I think this is more a comment on the particular strain of misogyny that pervades Japanese society and not being surprised that a country which has women only metro carriages out of necessity to prevent sexual harassment is also having a problem with AI generated deep fakes. Though the latter is also a problem in many other countries which have access to these image models.
Counter point: KiCAD
Yes I know it’s schematic capture and PCB layout, but I’m giving it as an example for two reasons:
The UX is genuinely really good and easy to use even for a novice following YouTube tutorials because it follows the norms of a schematic/PCB software package you’d expect to pay for (OrCAD, Altium, etc.)
It’s open source and used in industry so GIMP and Inkscape have ZERO excuses for their horrific UX which is the prime reason industry professionals don’t want to spend an age re-learning all of their workflows.
There I said it, I’ll get down off this soapbox now.
cough Inkscape cough …
Why are y’all looking at me like that?
We stan a tall queen!
