haha it’s a godsend with 2 kids/car seats and regular Costco runs

I’m paying $599 for my 2024 EV9 with 280 miles

it’s not literally just an analogy how a single browser guided by private corporate interests is treated as the only standard

de facto vs de jure

people actually drive with their high beams on 24/7 even on lighted roads and traffic. I was in an Uber recently and the driver did this. I already drive a relatively high riding SUV and I get blinded by those lifted trucks regularly. people are insane and only care about themselves

exactly at one point I had a several terabyte raid 5 array that I had been collecting since napster through the LAN iTunes sharing thing through torrents but I don’t even know where those drives are, let alone a mobo/desktop that I can plug it into. at least they’re sata not pata/ide. I see videos freaking out about how weird ipod shuffles were and I’m like I loved my shuffle and click wheel and video one

but honestly as much as I lament my “losses” this new era with connected devices everywhere and an endless explosion of high quality new content is amazing. even if I chose to only listen to new music 24/7 I could never even scratch the surface of all the new stuff coming out these days in every language in every genre accessible for free to everyone with a phone. it seems silly to think about the days when Metallica sued napster over 20$ cds (although the south park episode was great) now artists are begging for people to hover 2 seconds over free tik tok clips of their songs

I miss foobar2k

I bet I could convert a hundred people to Linux.

One day Shizuo Kakutani . . . was teaching a class at Yale. He wrote down a lemma on the blackboard and announced that the proof was obvious. One student timidly raised his hand and said that it wasn’t obvious to him. Could Kakutani explain? After several moments’ thought, Kakutani realized that he could not himself prove the lemma. He apologized, and said that he would report back at their next class meeting.

After class, Kakutani went straight to his office. He labored for quite a time and found that he could not prove the pesky lemma. He skipped lunch and went to the library to track down the lemma. After much work, he finally found the original paper. The lemma was stated clearly and succinctly. For the proof, the author had written, “Exercise for the reader.” The author of this 1941 paper was Kakutani.

definitely not an obscure meme

Betteridge’s law of headlines is an adage that states: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”
