Ahh good ol’ Aegisub. I have great memories of subtitling anime in my late teens before I got a girlfriend and the fansub scene died when Crunchyroll took over.
I was also one of the people helping test Aegisub on Linux (2009-ish), I wasn’t a programmer at the time but I remember a dude called ‘verm’ in the IRC channel who did a bunch of work to make Aegisub stable on Linux. He taught me the difference between little endian and big endian, I guess he was bored that day
Managers love yes-men so the more biased the better
I can afford neither, but if I had to save up for one it would be the BYD.
American cars are just large, stupid and inefficient. Also the parts are very expensive here in New Zealand
I can make up numbers too!
100s is 100 seconds
The irony is, unlike the old days - actually AMD (ATI) is recommend for Linux now because the drivers are better.
This is in stark contrast to the fglrx days where that driver was an absolute abortion and NVIDIA was really the only usable one.
Not sure when you started your Linux journey but I avoided AMD for years based on that.
Now the tables have turned but I didn’t realize until after I purchased my NUC which has NVIDIA RTX graphics. So I guess I’m stuck on NVIDIA for the foreseeable future
unishittification, that’s a new one.
I like it!
^ this guy corporates
Also, new manager would be part owner in a UX design firm of “experts” that conveniently, via their expert advice, convince management that a major redesign is needed and their firm is the only one that can do it (since everyone knows you can’t get expert advice internally)
80% of the way through the project, the manager gets promoted and moves on, leaving a new manager with no vested interest in their predecessors project to try and clean up the steaming dumpster fire that is now 300x over budget
Oh is THAT why every American knows how big 9mm is
Well, yeah. Anything less than 0 is freezing and anything greater than 0 isn’t.
Ezpz
I hope this never happens to me but based on the Peter Principle I won’t know when it happens.
Oh shit maybe it’s already happened…
I was thinking about this the other day. Because Lemmy instances keep defederating from each other, I don’t really experience Lemmy. I experience a fragment of Lemmy as determined by the admins of the instance I’m connected to.
Even if I run my own instance, I guess there’s nothing stopping instances from defederating from me (or just refusing to federate to begin with because my instance is too small to bother with).
Is there even a way to experience all of Lemmy, including spam and things some people don’t agree with?
“will the company go out of business if this isn’t fixed in the next hour?”
Litmus test for urgency
Why? All it’s going to do is output some words that have a statistical correlation to your input words
The first thing I noticed. I was confused, thinking maybe they had an old XP machine lying around to plug in after the main one failed, but then I read further and it was just a stunt
Hybrids: the worst of both worlds.
If you want to keep relying on gasoline then just buy an ICE car
It’s like rebrands.
Most rebrands occur because the average marketing person is pretty average and “rebrand” looks good on your CV.
A couple of million later, half way through, customers hate the new brand and the marketing people who started it have already left for greener pastures
Redesigning a perfectly good design that everyone is used to allows you to put “designed Netflix user interface” on your CV, and since management has to spend a ton of money on it, suddenly your team is worth something
MSSQL in Microsoft* cases
FTFY although arguably Microsoft and Stupid and synonyms
My house was built in the 1960’s, to New Zealand standards.
We build houses for the climate we wish we had, not the climate we actually have. All the wall cavities are empty, especially the external walls
I will forever recognize the Baar Sophia font from the fansubs of Naruto which got me into anime in the first place
