I wish 2025 was the last time I will have had to strategically vote, but it won’t be.

The shift from MS-DOS to NT was transparent to the vast majority of people to the point that most people didn’t realize they were two different OSes.
I don’t see why they couldn’t do it again. NTVDM was similar in concept to what wine does. Imagine if MS actively contributed to wine, or a wine like project.

That was a lot of words to say, “he’s an imbecile that doesn’t know what he’s doing”

I received a 3 day ban for calling for violence when I said Vance will be President of the US after an arterial blockage takes out Trump.

I took some code and scripts I wrote and passed them through AI. A lot of it was tightened up, and even better, it added comments and turned some things into functions so they were reusable.
I parsed everything it did to sanity check it. Really, use it like a junior developer. “Hey helper, write me a piece of code that does X.” You always double check the junior.
I think you’re on to something. I have a 10 year old laptop with linux, 4 cores, 8gb of ram, a mechanical drive, and a win10 vm on it and it runs fine for it’s purpose.

ragepaw@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Should home prices go down? ’No,’ says Canada’s new housing minister31·2 months agoMy wife and I bought to get on the ladder. You can never save enough, at some point you need to hop in.
We’re 2 years in on a house that doesn’t suit our needs because if we didn’t buy, we would keep getting priced out. If prices drop, we’ll be stuck in this house. It wasn’t an investment, it was building equity for when it’s time to move.
At least we have a house, so many others aren’t as lucky.
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish11·2 months agoI would also like to apologize to you for not taking you being neuro-atypical into account. I understand how difficult it must be for someone with your kind of hyper fixation disorder. It must be very difficult for you, being completely unable to let something go, in spite of your correctness, or in this case, lack thereof. Have you considered fluoxetine?
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish11·2 months agoI already apologized for over estimating your intelligence. Now let me apologize for over estimating your maturity. I understand how difficult it is for some people to regulate themselves. I will do better next time and not assume everyone has the emotional capacity of a functional adult.
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish11·2 months agoI sincerely apologize to you for not explaining myself better. Some people are just incapable of understanding nuance and deeper meaning. I forget that some people lack complex reasoning skills.
I will do better next time for people like you.
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish1·2 months agoThe power threat was export tariffs, at least a threat from anyone with actual power. The problem being, I don’t think the guy making the threat had that legal power, which is why I’m believe it disappeared.
I think…
I’m pretty sure only the Federal Government has that power, though I might be wrong.
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish12·2 months agoNice ad hominem
I’m sorry my point went over your head. That’s no reason to lash out.
ragepaw@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US to ban Canadians from entering border friendship libraryEnglish12·2 months agoAll I hear is, “I’m doing things that have literally no effect, so I’ll keep doing them so I can feel like I’ve done my part.”
OK then. None of that has worked, but I’m sure you can sleep fine at night, while millions of people who until 6 months ago were your friends and allies are terrified that your country will destroy us. But by all means, let’s worry about a library. Because history books will stop us from getting invaded.
Also, since you have decided to call me an idiot, I’ll return the favour.
You know this isn’t about the fucking library right? I have no idea how more clear I could have been. It’s really no suprise a nitwit won, because at least he understood the message, even if he literally understands nothing else.
Petulant imbecile
