This post reads like someone took a bunch of Adderall and went through Wikipedia for hours but didn’t actually understand anything they read. Drink some water and get some sleep, bud.

I’ll save you a click. The story has pretty much nothing to do with the “coding whiz”, just a boring recollection of a guy’s occasional work on a ship. The only reference to the coding whiz’s inappropriate insult was

at work drinks he loudly asked the boss if he was still having an affair with a colleague – in front of the entire office and the boss’s wife, who had come in for the occasion.

I think my personal favorite is Omnium Gatherum, but it has some ups and downs. Nonagon Infinity is pretty much flawless from top to bottom (and back to top)

I primarily use DDG, but the vast majority of people I talk to (including other tech savvy people) use Google. I feel like “search” is too generic (search where?), but “search the internet” is weird. And saying “Bing it” or “Duck it” or whatever just sounds overly contrarian. But if I say “Google it”, people know exactly what I mean.

So yes, I will “Google where to buy some bandaids” by searching DDG for adhesive bandages.

Well this is kind of a no brainer, but my asthma has been significantly less prevalent since I stopped smoking/vaping weed. I have exercise induced asthma, and when I smoked or vaped every day, any amount of physical activity could potentially set it off. Now, it only ever bothers me if I perform intense cardio physical activity particularly in the cold, so I just avoid that as much as I can

I don’t speak French natively but I happen to know their version of lol is “mdr”, short for mort de rire (dying of laughter)

Any fans of The Neighborhood Listen? I think this might be one of Doug’s estranged kids

Interesting. I have always used their web app (even on mobile, i just use their pwa instead of the native app since the native app is missing obvious features), and I haven’t had any issues, but I can definitely understand the frustration if you want to use anything else. OP, keep that in mind if you’re thinking about Proton!

Just throwing in my two cents since I just went through this same ordeal: I use Proton, but be aware that you can only use a custom address if you pay for the premium plan which is not crazy cheap. I’ve been pretty happy with their premium plan so far, which includes premium features for mail, calendar, cloud drive, VPN, and password manager, but if I ever decide that I don’t want to keep paying for it, I can always transfer my custom domain to a different provider without needing to update my email.

As for the domain, I went with namecheap. I also have a pretty common name, so the good domains were taken and I had to settle for firstname@lastname.in but I think it’s still pretty easy to remember.

It’s been one of my favorite games since I first played it ~25 years ago, so it makes me so happy to hear that it (mostly) holds up. I have my opinions about Tooie (both good and bad), but I’ll let you form your own opinions about it. Looking forward to hearing what you think!

Also, it’s too bad they never made a third game. But if they did I can only imagine they would have done something crazy like remove the platforming and added in some vehicle building mechanic. Thank goodness that never happened!

It’s Nintendo, so it will probably be called the New Switch U or something

I know this is sacrilegious (especially as a professional software developer who works from home) but I actually think it’s too much screen space. I have a second 4k monitor that I almost never use because it always ends up with a lot of empty wasted space, so it just stays off most of the time. It really only gets used when I have something on my main monitor full screen, but even then it rarely has more than a 1080p screens’ worth of content

The one right below it has 6 fingers also

Life is Strange for sure. Idk what it is but I was emotional for days after finishing it. Wasn’t a huge fan of the others in the series but I can’t recommend the first one enough

I’m also struggling to understand how and why it’s being compared to Twitter. How are they even related?

It’s my understanding that i,j are conventionally used in mathematics which carried over into programming, but specifically it comes from Fortran in which all integer variables start with “I” through “N” based on said mathematical convention

Yeah I really enjoyed SE for a while, but I gave up towards the end game once it stopped introducing new mechanics and started just making you do the same things in different combinations. I really liked the Arcospheres though, I thought they were a really clever and novel challenge. Overall I would say it’s worth the time to experience all the interesting new mechanics, but I don’t think I’m missing out from stopping before I beat it
