There are pointers in Assembly?
All I remember is memory addresses, stored in memory locations.

The only photos I backup are my certificates.
Rest are non-essential and don’t deserve more than one copy.

I recently lost quite a few videos, moving a partition to the left and it didn’t matter enough for me to consider backing them up next time.

The source codes I make however, apart from having them on gitlab, I am also considering keeping a separate drive to store them.
With patches to other projects, stored as diffs instead of storing the whole project.

I learnt about that too and apparently, it is treated as a problem in China, where there are quite a few cases.

tl;dr normal ⇒ usual
normal ⇏ desirable

<rant> It is normal, same as it was normal for most people to die after being treated by a doctor in the pre-modern-medicine period.
Same as it is normal for people to start needing eye correcting glasses around 25y (quote from a qualified professional doctor).
Same as it is normal to be absolutely drained after just 8 hours of working on a desk, because it is also normal to have a closed-loop AC system with the only opening in the room (the main door) having people smoking tobacco on the other side. </rant>

So here’s what happened recently:

• I opened the Google News widget on my Android phone, saw a Sponsored link, and found it interesting
• Clicked on it, the link opened in Chrome, opening the googleadservices redirection thingummy
• Took over 5 seconds to process the redirect
• I exited the browser

Guess who missed ad money?

But of course, maybe they got the ad money and the only losers were:

• me, who didn’t get to see the website that might actually have had something I wanted
• the website owner, who not only didn’t get my business but also had to pay Google, because Google most probably processed the ad first and didn’t care to process the redirect

I feel like I understand why they removed the “Do no evil” sign. Because now, they are messing with both, the product and the customers, only providing as much as is required to take their money, instead of the full, advertised service.

+1 for using “you’re” instead of what the chap above did

Most uses of ‘retard’ are in variable names like B43legacy_OFDMTAB_ADVRETARD but we also have

That explains the sudden drop, with legacy code being removed

Caught the “FREESPOT-hotel_ichibata” WiFi password
Is anyone going there to see if it matches? Or if it matches what was set when the writer actually visited the hotel?

Thanks. Guess I should have checked the sidebar

All the more reason for them to judge out kinks

Guess I’ll use that as my gateway to OpenGL

Do you also need to be drunk to be proud of it?

Ep 11 where?

The Aliens might also be animals, you know?

knife thing is annoying

Yeah, that was the first thing I found out, looking at the picture.
One would have to tilt the holder backward to take out the knife and then make a very unnatural feeling motion to get it towards themselves. Even worse if there is no space behind the rack (there is a window in the picture that will enable that if opened)

Sell your wardrobe fridge and replace it with a small one.
If the stuff does not fit in your fridge, don’t buy it.

And what @technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com said. Over here, milk comes in 1L packets with a 2 day expiry. I only buy for 2-3 days at a time and every time I go out to buy milk, I also refill groceries.

Stuff over here is not more than 10km away, so I can use a bicycle.

To put better comical effect to that line, you can add a separate hyperlink to each word of the sentence, each leading to a separate article of one of the projects abandoned by Google.

Even better if all of them were widely used ones, affirming your point.

I would love to talk about Qt Framework and QML, here, but QML doesn’t seem particularly great either.
Although I have only used QML, so I might only be knowing the pains of it and not the others.

Whenever I use ffmpeg, I am also using the browser.
Or I am using a pre-made script.
