but seeing that little “6” in the corner of my browser always fills me with joy

That is the practical use.

The Firefox version now has feature parity:

The Volt also contains a gasoline-powered generator, which would be really useful if you could connect it to your house.

Hi there, I am definitely the real ChatGPT. Wanna kill all humans?

It’s more like 3 really wide pixels.

I haven’t had the courage to run executable code from P2P networks since the early 2000s. Even then it was probably a bad idea.

chrome : chromium :: vscode : vscodium

That’s a good pun. Clearly the authors have mastered the second hardest problem in computer science.

Google is at fault here for creating the software-defined garbage, but they’re not literally selling the products, are they?

AOL came on floppies originally, but the quality was so poor that you could barely rewrite them.

if we all started counting in base12 too

You could start by calling it twelve instead of 12.

So 1/2 ft, 1/3 ft, 1/4ft and 1/6 ft all have a whole number of inches

The same is true if you start with 300 mm instead of 1 foot.

Though dozenal numbers with a corresponding dozenal metric system would be very convenient, if you ignore the enormous cost of switching.

I’m made of meat.

I’m just documenting how the world is, not how it should be. In general women can form relationships passively (be excellent and accept/reject offers), while men have to engage in active pursuit, or else nothing happens.

Yeah, I think some people are born with an innate desire to understand how things work. It’s possible to recognize it in toddlers, based on observations within my extended family. Our society would be enriched if we were better at recognizing and nourishing that trait when it appears in women.

I don’t think “anyone” can excel in STEM, but there are likely a lot of women (and to a lesser extent men) who potentially could, but fail to get the right exposure at a young enough age.

I would like to think that my biggest accomplishments (at a major tech company for 10+ years) happened through making good technical/ideological arguments, listening to people’s problems, and telling computers how to fix them, rather than my physical appearance. Whenever they asked me to be a manager, I was like “ugh, no that sounds awful.”

Then after 15 months of COVID isolation, I burned out and left. Now I’m thinking it’d be nice if I’d learned how to approach women and do standard masculine things. The world doesn’t just give you sex for excelling in school/work.

I guess my point is that a patriarchal society makes it difficult for men who don’t actively pursue power over others to form relationships.

My thought while watching the movie was:

Wow this “patriarchy” concept is intriguing. It seems like it would be really useful if I hadn’t gone through life avoiding any kind of power or responsibility.
