I've had to batch-rename files many times over the years. That means: 1. I do it manually over however many minutes. Works if there aren't too many (especially if the pattern is too complex to trivially automate). 2. I…
Yes, they're way better now! The quality was poor because they were using decades-old original IBM tooling, and injection molds don't last forever D:. But, they made new molds in, I think, 2020? I bought a New Model M…
An internal combustion engine may be complex, but it's not fancy. I can see and touch and understand every part of it. I can maintain and modify and repair it. This is not true for fancy electronics and certainly not…
The difference is this isn't an inherently hard problem. It's just stupidity. The difficulty is not inherently interesting, because it's all made up.
Change your network name. When the TV prompts you to connect, join the renamed network. Then, rename it back so everything else can connect again and the TV can't. I can think of a few potential problems with this, but,…
Simple: A version specifier, or feature specifiers. Backward compatibility concerns vanish when I can opt-in to a newer spec. Old code keeps working, and new code doesn't suffer for legacy nonsense. For example, the…
My mobile phone's data connection isn't free. I'd prefer it not be wasted on sloppily-made websites.
Bad-faith argument. Incest can also be between adult same-age siblings or cousins (and not everyone considers the latter case to be incest). Also, I don't insult or look down on sick or disabled people. Why are you?
For corpos, I view things the opposite way: Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice.
As I recall, the term "rosebud" can refer to an intentional anal prolapse. I'm not sure if what porn actresses do is the same as the medical definition of an anal prolapse, though.
To me, unboxing videos are documentation, not entertainment. When I need to know exactly what's in a box and how it's packaged, an unboxing video is the only source of that information.
You... what? You can't be serious. Simply putting "exercise and adhd" into Google® got me multiple studies which say that exercise helps, along with many other websites (some reputable and others possibly not) all…
It's unfortunate that I had to scroll to the bottom of the page to see any mention of ADHD or executive dysfunction, when the linked post describes what is clearly a form of executive dysfunction! Instant temporary…
