Blinkenlights appears to no longer exist :(

Plenty of java back end web development, so maybe not as embarrassing as you felt?

Do you remember the bad old days when you’d go to someone’s house and their browser would be unusable because it had so many toolbars installed? That was often from legit sites bundling crap into installers for software they hosted.

The CEO of a medical insurance company got assassinated. The weirdest thing about it? I didn’t see shit.

That’s really cool. Are they held snug? Will they fall out?

Is it possible the hard drive is failing in the old one? I don’t know what the operating system would do if download speed surpassed write speed, but once it couldn’t hold it in ram any longer waiting to write I guess it would have to throttle it.

The bandwidth of a network card would generally outclass your internet connection by an order of magnitude.

Gigabits per second network cards have been standard for at least a decade.

And then there’s your wifi too, if applicable, but even that is much faster than your general internet connection, unless you’re far from your router. A new laptop might help you get a better wifi signal, if it had a newer wifi protocol or stronger radio, but that’s also going to depend on your router.

But in front of all of that is going to be your modem. Depending on the quality of your modem that might be a bottleneck.

A new laptop, even the best in the world, won’t make your downloads any faster.

I also back what everyone else is saying. Unless of course you can update your current laptop. What have you got? An extra stick of ram and an SSD can make an old laptop feel brand new, especially with an OS reinstall

Jesus Christ is not my Lord and saviour. I demand you delete this post immediately and apologise. This is as insulting to me as pineapple on a pizza

What games do you make? If you’re actively working on games that are anti dark pattern then that’s the type of game I want to hear about

The last Batman movie I saw was probably in the Dark Knight series and I’m pretty sure there was no Robin. When was Robin last in a big movie? Has he come back since then?

Wow, I’ve probably seen it a million times but never noticed, but “don’ts” just looks so wrong. “Dont’s”? “Don’t’s”? “Donts”? AAAAAAAHHHHH

I’d only ever say it while referring to myself, and when I do it’s not of a consolation to myself or maybe as a way to tell the other person to not feel sorry about distracting me and making me forget. Is that the same way you interpret it?

It’s honestly my belief that Israel is doing half this shit to inflame the situation in an attempt to force the US into the conflict, because they know that only with America’s military help will they be able to achieve their end goals

Jeez if all flow artists are like this I think i’d rather remain ignorant

Edit: I just googled it and I still have no fucking idea

There you go, proving exactly what the OP was asking about! I just assumed issuing and printing were the same.

When I lost my credit card overseas I was issued an emergency replacement by MasterCard and it only had MasterCard branding. I guess sometimes they issue cards (unless they got a bank to print it without their branding).

Fucking yank-tanks

Auto Hot Key, that’s something I haven’t heard of in a while. Probably because it’s not as essential in a Linux environment when you can more easily accomplish most of what you’d accomplish using AHK in a shell script. What problem are you trying to solve using AHK? Someone might be able to tell you how to solve it.

I got some counselling, then on the anti depressants, they were the first step - let me see why I should do something different, but then I got onto the ADHD meds and they let me focus. It took a while, had to work out what worked for me but once I got it it was the answer I needed. They’re not the solution for everyone, but if you haven’t tried at least talk to someone about it.
