Sure, but if you’re going to use it as a car replacement it doesn’t really make sense to get some cheap piece of shit from AliExpress. The car it would be replacing wasn’t going to a be a cheap Chinese PoS either, right?

Or you could spend a bit more and get something decent, like an urban arrow. Especially if you’re getting one instead of a second car.

Oh I agree they should. Physical game sales are a PITA.

I bet that hardly anyone buys the add on drive and they use that as a reason to completely drop physical media support in the PS6.

I’m a Mac guy so I’m a bit out of touch with the state of PCs. I know PCs usually are a few years behind technology wise, but I’m kind of surprised they still don’t have bluetooth as standard. The technology is decades old.

I use Safari which has this feature built in.

Yeah, I usually hover around 300-400 open tabs. I clean them up once in a while but it just builds up again.

No, the terminology sounds right to me. The term front-end and back-end are used in other contexts than building websites.

For example, the term is used in compilers, where the front-end takes code in a programming language and translates it to an intermediate representation (IR), and the back-end takes the IR and translates that into machine code for a specific architecture. A compiler like LLVM has many front-ends and back-ends to support different languages and architectures.

The term applies to many things where there is a multi-layered architecture.

Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.

Good code is self-explanatory. You should only comment your code if it does something unexpectedly complicated.

The code shows what is being done. The comments should explain the why.

What does coffee have to do with anything?

So basically it became a stereotype because black people knew how to have a good time and throw a party with lots of guests and delicious food?

They would take some elements of black culture, like (…) saying they love fried chicken and watermelon

How did this become a stereotype? Doesn’t everyone love fried chicken and watermelon regardless of skin color? They are both delicious.

So, someone could make a new search engine with a different algorithm. If it becomes successful though, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes targeted and manipulated.

I can think of a solution to this. Once your new search engine is starting to get targeted, you find out who is offering these SEO services. Then you hire a gang of thugs to beat the living shit out of them.

In a MAME machine maybe, but the original arcade cabinets all have custom hardware.

Yeah, the hardware in a console is mass produced, the hardware in an arcade cabinet is made in relatively small batches. Mass producing something is always a lot cheaper per unit due to economies of scale.

That works great until it doesn’t, and then you’re fucked.

But with those ‘user friendly’ UI’s no one knows what they’re doing. The user doesn’t know regardless and now the expert they ask for help has no clue either.

It isn’t half bad but it does use a lot of terminology

That’s why it’s user friendly. Try configuring one of those “user friendly” consumer grade crap routers. Due to the use non-standard descriptions in a misguided effort to be user friendly no one actually has any clue what settings actually do.

Now, that’s just a recent development. 20 years ago it was a common format for images on the interwebs.
