#HannityAntics grow tiresome. Sean is one epic putz. But Rachel could take it to the mat.

Sean Hannity #Slammed After Calling Rachel #Maddow A 'Make Believe Journalist' In #Bonkers Rant

The #Fox News host went on an #eight-minute #rant about the #MSNBC host, calling her a 'full-time left-wing, hate-Trump conspiracy theorist' for not airing #Trump's victory speech after the #Iowacaucus.

Boo Hoo.

Can someone explain to me why I have to repeatedly reapply for my US permanent overseas voter ballot (not sure which sea, I live in Canada). They literally lecture you on the page saying you should add yourself to the permanent list to reduce admin burden. Which part of permanent suggests I want to fill it out every 2 years and pay international postage to "renew" my permanentness? #rant

tech mentality is to make a whole domain at https://gpg.wtf specifically out of frustration with how much the design of gpg sucks and instead of saying "so that you, developers, know next time to hire and respect designers", the conclusion is "so that you, users, stop making excuses".

tech mentality treats bad design as a puzzle that proves the superior brains of tech people when solved.

anyway the "rant:" section at the end (https://gpg.wtf/#rant-random-things-that-confused-me-about-gpg ) is legit informative/cathartic in showing it's worse than you thought.

Another example of why I (often) dislike didactics papers: "The connection between the pre-exponential term and PV diagrams can be further understood using eq 4." Can you be explicit?!
Like you are writing a didactic paper, tell me what you are telling me, don't hint at it!

I can't believe my company decides team assignments based on where the feature exists on the screen, rather than what the feature actually does.

I'm reminded of one of the worst things my manager said over 20 years ago: "A good engineer should be able to do any task given to them." Would you say the same thing about medical doctors?

Specializations exist for reasons, and those should be used for efficiency. #tech #rant

Sorry this is going to be an

I dislike when people's first suggestion to some problem is to use a plugin.

Like "I am trying to do XYZ but I am running into this issue" and someone says "Oh just use the $120 ABC plugin"

Will the plugin do exactly as intended? Will it be supported for a few engine versions, or will its developers just up and disappear? Do I have to join some obscure Discord channel and have to be "verified" before I can ask the dev questions?

#guitar #rant
I'm way out of my depth here.
I'm a bedroom player with mostly cheap guitars, but I bought a custom T style a while back.
It needs fret work. A few frets pulled out a little.
Local shop does PLEK:
$225
$300 if frets need to be reseated.
Too low to PLEK, so refret needed:
$600
BUT it's a finished maple neck, so needs to be refinished after planing:
$850.

I could buy a neck AND get it PLEK'd for less.
I could almost buy a new MIM Tele for that.

$150 to get it back un-fixed.

Je crois que depuis que j'ai franchi le pas et que je suis devenu complètement végétarien (≈3 ans), le truc qui m'agace le plus, c'est les gens qui te répondent "Ah mais tu sais moi aussi je mange moins de viande" et qui derrière te disent qu'ils continuent de manger du poulet et du boeuf tous les jours parce que ceci cela (mon excuse préférée "Ma femme aime trop ça.")

Qu'ils se donnent bonne conscience, ok, s'iels veulent. Mais je m'en fous. 😭

At some piont in in time one realizes that one or at max two #Linux distros are plenty for everything.
I'm all for picking the right tool for the job btw... I't just does not make any sense to invist into multiple distros and never mastering any of them.

Used to run so many diverse distros that my workflow was pretty messy and overall bad.

Just my 2 cents on that 😉

Okay I have just finished the Phantom Liberty DLC and I have some... issues with design decisions.

  1. Platforming in first person SUCKS 99 times out of 100 and that includes this game. When you can't be sure how close your feet is to the edge you are as likely to randomly fall off a ledge as jump from it.

  2. Loooong action sequences with no auto saves nor ability to save anywhere is just False Difficulty meant to punish the player for failure.

Ads on websites can be annoying on the desktop but on mobile it seems we are getting to the point where the sites are downright unusable. It’s almost like peak popup ads era of the web. This isn’t just dinky sites either. It seems even major news sites are like this too. I guess time to throw over to an RSS reader again or something which means they won’t even get my view impressions any longer. The enshitification continues unabated… #rant #enshitification

Okay, evidently I'm sufficiently tired that I can't focus on writing code, so it is evidently the time to #rant about why I think the way that #ActivityPub does it with OrderedCollection will fail readily, and what you can do about it.

First, a caveat: AS actually admits that this is a problem and a hard one and punts the difficulty, saying "you need to load the entire thing if you want total ordering."

My problem with that statement is that it is neither necessary nor sufficient.
