  • Kovid Goyal was extremely unhappy about python2 being sunsetted. He was pondering maintaining it himself at one point because it required such a re-write porting to python3.

  • Probably shouldn't have been bringing up my heavy experiences on your light hearted post. Just recently recovered so still marvelling at how thoroughly it messes up your shit.

  • I had a horrible experience with psychosis earlier this year. The thing I never grasped before is how none of it appears like a hallucination like adventurous people might have experienced in other contexts. The whole thing appears real and totally credible. I had the spotlight effect and had become convinced there was some kind of conspiracy against me where the neighbours had dispatched assassins to my flat.

    I seriously doubt someone in the throws of a psychotic episode is able to consent in a meaningful way.

  • Many people post online because they want to have an argument or bait other people into an argument. I'm not sure how you can correct a fundamental human flaw in a specific online community.

  • Given my work as a dev I've pretty much always got BBC Sounds on in the background while I'm working. Mainly Radio4 but also Radio6 for music and sometimes sports on Radio5 (Australian Open tennis is a personal favourite for cold winter mornings.)

  • Actual hottake unlike the OP

  • I was referring to that app when mentioning the poor engineering choices that were made. My thinking is more along the lines of your co-commenter, sex offender++, or smth

  • I don't know how available this is in every country but something like an enhanced version of that

  • Why not sell it as a big laser quest game? #YesAllMen /jk

    Women are slightly more than half the population (51%?) and experience the most harrassment. I think something needs to be done but maybe not a dystopian measure. How about a shared register of dangerous men made by competent devs (not outsourced) that don't leave the s3 bucket open to the intetnet unencrypted? Or - given that the police are useless - make the process of getting a restraining order more straight forward, require less evidence.

  • For balance, same friend - who I'd describe as a bit of a Tory boy stereotype - absolutely loves John Swinney. Apparently he is wonderful to work with and has a strong sense of civil duty. Makes it clear he never wanted the job but took it on as a duty to party and country.

  • I mean, their former treasurer and their Leader's spouse was just being put under further charges of forging documents relating to the donor irregularities. For some reason this whole corruption story has been brushed over by the media but it is damning. Civil servant friend told me the most senior civil servant in another department passed Nicola in the corridor and gave her a lecturer about money launderers not being wanted in the Scottish govt; granted this was a few days after it happened as it is unclear how estranged the couple were.

  • Fake: you having the capacity to intimidate anyone

    Gay: your threat hones in on OP's ass

  • I remember signing end of elementary/primary school leaving shirts with my email at the time instead of my name because i was certain that my handle would be (in)famous. The email misspelt "requiem" as "requim"

  • Found it

  • Easier to say with hindsight, there is literally a gif of him flashing people on a red carpet event but no one batted an eyelid at the time.

  • I use gentoo on my main PC and debian on an old Thinkpad.

    Debian is solid as a rock provided you don't edit the sources to make it a "FrankenDebian" where it is pulling in more recent packages like Ubuntu.

  • I had multiple friends who dressed like him and used his affectations during his peak popularity in the noughties. No SA's though fortunately.

    Looking back it was pretty much like a license to act more camp in public.

  • I work at a big company that advertises often at big events. We have internal discussions about making the ads less obnoxious.

  • Personally I get sleep paralysis almost weekly. It's always disembodied voices as opposed to incubus' or succubus' (I wish!)
