The radio was part of the template

It’s like those impossible comb geometry, one side is a box, the other is the spine of a book

A browser is one of the most complex pieces of software you will find. There’s a reason why only 2.5 browsers exist (I’m counting chromium and safari as 1.5 because they are not the same but they are both WebKit). Maintaining a browser is difficult and making a new one is even more difficult.

Take Microsoft, one of/the most valuable company in the world. They had a browser (internet explorer) that has been state of the art, then they couldn’t maintain it anymore and it became a joke. They made a new one instead (old edge) with all the intention of making it a real player. Fucking Microsoft couldn’t do it and had to give up. They replaced it with a reskin of chrome (new edge).

Apple and Google manage to maintain chrome and safari both thanks to their position of monopoly, and because their position of monopoly depends on it. Firefox exist(ed) as a tax sponge for Google, but it’s definitely behind chrome in technology, but if it was a new browser, and not one order than safari, they would never be able to make it.

Look at you, flying on rich planes with that much space in front of you

This is so stupid, CDs have error correction codes. Special redundancy that fixes reading errors up to some level. If your reader is so junky that it gets uncorrectable errors, no amount of “trapping the light in the CD” is gonna change that. And even if you get some incorrect bit the player will probably try to guess it and unless your ear is some kind of specialty ultrafast tuning equipment you won’t hear the difference.

But saints are not gods, they are more like emissaries. You pray for them to bring your word to God.

But in the end, religious beliefs don’t make sense anyway, so why bother analyzing contradictions. Faith is based on believing without needing proof, so any logic reasoning against religion fails against that statement.

Unless it’s fucking corona, which smells like armpits. Every time someone opens one I check if it’s coming from me

To be even more pedantic, the guy is Italian and that is relevant to the character. In Italy we say “if my grandmother had wheels she would be a wheelbarrow”. He pauses a moment before saying the joke, probably because he didn’t remember the word wheelbarrow and went for bike instead.

Look at what mathematicians have been asking your respect for.

“Hello, I would like i potatoes”

How can we trust science when they say things like that?

Systemd was actually a “clone” of apple’s launchd. Similarities with windows arise from the fact that it makes sense to manage services in certain ways on modern OSs. Also services on windows are completely different from Linux and MacOS, they are even a different executable file format, not a normal exe.

You set the bios to always turn on when power is back and use the switch and you just unplug and plug it from the wall

Ye olde “a case doesn’t need to be fancy, it just needs to be a box”

It’s a supermicro x8dal-i with two xeon x5650 from 2010. 6c/12t each, base frequency 2.33 GHz, turbo to 3.2 GHz single core, 3 DDR3 ports each in two Numa nodes, for a total of 24GB at 2400 MT/s. It only supports PCIe 2.0, for a 1060 3GB.

It’s slow as hell in single thread, it’s acceptable in multi thread. It doesn’t go out of memory. It sounds like a lawnmower. It boots up between 1 min and 6 min. It overheats and shuts down in summer (hence the desk fan and the little fan blowing on the chipset). It chokes that 1060 with its slow PCIe. Lots of sata, only one 128 GB SSD. Most games from before the 2021 run. Overall pretty cool. It has two Intel gigabit Ethernet.

Both windows 10 and Ubuntu are taking a toll on it. But I bet a nice fresh install will fix it. But I won’t do it because it’s not my main kick anymore

You ain’t seen shit kiddo

But unironically, “having faith” implies that you do not need proof but you are trusting your belief. So they are kind of correct

Straightest Griffith interaction.

Also, fuck Griffith
