@cwebber minor point: it's basically against the uniform code of military justice for anyone in that room to give any public pushback. You might get some from retired individuals, but nothing from anyone active duty unless they wanted to be reduced in rank and fired.

@evan nah. Copilot is more "here is a random set of words that sound somewhat like the pattern of an answer, but is just a likely gibberish"

@evan it's why I dont bother setting up "smart completion" for most languages. I hit the magic key combo and Emacs searches through all my open buffers to see "ok, last time you had typed this sequence of characters, you then followed it with this result". And another combo will cycle through other options starting with most recent. Kinda works like magical "I know what you need" copy-n-paste.

@evan no need for me to copy and paste, as Emacs abbreviation mode does a smart version much quicker 😜

@mattl @film_girl Dropout. And then youd have enough left over for tacos

@mattl @film_girl seems decent

@mattl @film_girl murderbot
I needed to watch murderbot

@pluralistic @jorgecandeias @codinghorror I really don't get his problem. I almost *never* read blogs anymore but I love coming across one of your threads and then choosing to read it or skip it. Actually, I dont think I've ever gone to the long-form link you provide, and just stick to my phones mastodon client.

And... "considered blogging?" Is he that clueless?

@cwebber and given that they were just promoting the showers at the newest one in Florida, they know exactly what they're doing and their base is rabidly lapping up the dog whistles.

(And if someone denies the dog whistles are happening, ask them why else would they have just hyped erecting two *88* foot tall flagpoles at the White House?)

@mattl yeah, lost my domain and thus many other things like my Overwatch access... but compared to the big picture, those are nothing

@mattl username and/or email... in case I lose access to the email like back when my mother was in the ICU

@brooke @mattl I'd picked up a '50 flat one the other week. Good to know that I'm 50% below confirmed reach

@mattl 🤦♂️

@evan I really can't say, since the Spanish completely wiped out our local cultures (on my father's side) and I have no record of which i came from nor where it might actually be. Or rather, *used* to be.

@bmac @jeffowski or "A Private Little War", or "Patterns of Force", or "The Conscience of the King", or "The Omega Glory"...

I had got in an argument with some idiot on Twitter who argued that and also that it was just based on the US military which he claimed had solved racism by the '60s! (I served as a Sargeant in the '90s, while this idiot was still a kid, and it definitely was not solved)

Turns out he was one of the Sad Puppy leaders, so that explained that. Failed writer white dude…

@cwebber torg?

@pr06lefs @cwebber ah, yes. That torg

Wondering if the #Kobo "10V" power adapter is actually a 10W adapter.

I assume marketing people/corporate web designers have no clue?
