Why not just use a QR code scanner that shows you the link before you browse to it?

It generates the blurst of code!

“Don’t cry, you can run bash on Windows 10 now”… pure awesomeness! Haha

I find it hilarious that you think people who use health trackers “need” them to get fit, rather than being a source of personal data that helps improve how you manage your diet and exercise.

You could pretty much reduce any use of modern software to that kind of comment. E.g. I find it halarious that people need spellcheck to write things correctly.

I don’t know if it is lazy as much as it is a design choice - remember at one point Lemmy actually auto updated (which meant posts were pushed down while you were browsing) and it was an intentional design.

Well maybe if she had shown more interest in his pull requests, he wouldn’t be off forking other repos!

A lot of people posting that the threat of theft or interference will put a halt to drone delivery, but I wonder if that will really be a problem when looking at the the return on investment. A lot of people have said similar things about self service checkouts but industry keeps pushing on.

The cost of drone delivery will shrink dramatically over time (labour and energy being the two big ones) especially if you compare it to equivalent service levels (e.g. same day delivery) so much so that companies would likely easily absorb the costs - if it all works of course.

Is it really that different to the vrooming of cars that we have grown accustomed to?

HA, I read the title and thought “what is going on? I love my seat warmers” - I completely overlooked the word subscription because it is absolutely absurd that there would be an ongoing cost to the consumer for a feature that provides no ongoing cost to the manufacturer.

This is one of the most educational and entertaining reads on the internet, if you are into that kind of thing:

I am not so young but I have always seen my friends once a week for the better part of my adult life. Basically we always make an effort to organise things, sometimes weeks out, sometimes it’s completely impulsive (and they don’t always work out) - from a small breakfast catch up, or a big weekend away, and everything in between!

LAN parties (showing my age).

It depends where you live, but my go-to was 24 hr cafes and other food places, but there are also other activities like late night fishing, long drives (or rides), night photography, etc

“If our F-DLC coating were adopted globally, it would noticeably curtail carbon emissions and water usage for the existing power infrastructure”

There are clearly benefits to increasing the efficiency of the steam cycle, but I feel like for 2% this is a bit of an overstatement.

a + b = c;

My code is so good at mimicking the human brain that it can do basic arithmetic!

I use Apple devices for work and although their hardware and software are reasonably well refined, I would never choose to use them for my personal devices as long as they continue their anti consumer walled garden approach.

If my router drops packets on the rug, should I rub their WAN port in it?

This article has serious “not the onion” vibes!

A tiny bit of sugar free cordial is my go to, mainly as it gives it a hint of flavour without diluting the bubbles too much!

I don’t think there is a single right or wrong answer but to play devils advocate making your CI tooling lightweight orchestration for your scripts that do the majority of the work means you lose the advantages of being able to easily add in third party tools that you want to integrate with your pipeline (quality, security, testing, reporting, auditing, artefact management, alerting, etc). It becomes more complex the more pipelines you are creating while maintaining a consistent set of tooling integrations.

Why waste time with CI when you can save on thousands of dev hours by limiting yourself to only one giant fuck off release every year!
