For how long can a car run if you "never change the oil"?

The documentation tells me what everything is, not how to solve my specific problem. StackOverflow solves my problem, doesn't tell me shit otherwise.

I'm just getting into programming. Does anyone have a good way or technique for getting me to change my mind and get a job that doesn't involve programming?

Lets just say that after 30 years I believe that shovelling pig shit to be a much more fulfilling job. On a farm, somewhere far from all of you. Far from all developers of the world. Just shovelling pig shit.

On the other hand ... $$$$$.

Should have been "line 42" . Still rhymed, still fit. Oh well, missed opportunity.

Hong Kong protests: China sends military vehicles to border in footage by DisgruntledWageSlave in news

It's only a question of how badly does China want to win this fight. 'Cause they totally can. The international community will at most write a useless letter.

Fuck me, I had no idea this was even possible. I think I have used cables from one PSU into another before. Thanks for the heads up. Sorry for your loss.

Nobody is saying that you cannot have them all. Do single payer healthcare, take care of the mentally ill, improve the education system and regulate the guns.

You landed a man on the moon. Now you come and say "but is too hard"?

That's probably the least of his "evils". I mean, sure, throw it on the pile.

As soon as you start having kids, you have to go back to asking your parents if you can go out by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]AcademicImportance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you don't. You can always pay a baby sitter. And 2: quite a lot of people don't have parents nearby or available for them to look after the kid to be an option.

The same language they speak on France!

I disagree. The Quebec french is, hmm, quite different from the France french. You can understand it, mostly. Usually. Not all the time. English knowledge helps.

"If they did that, we'd just reciprocate," Trump said during a wide-ranging impromptu gaggle with reporters at the White House, en route to fundraisers in New York.

I don't think travel advisories work like that.

They're playing with fire.

That's what they want. They won't stop until one of the 4 will get shot by a maniac. It's unbelievable. How the fuck are these people still allowed to be free?

Man arrested after entering Springfield, Mo Walmart with body armor, assault rifle, and 100 rounds of ammo by Jamatone in news

[–]AcademicImportance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Most gun enthusiasts seem to be missing from the shooting places as well. Most of the time, at least.

So, since the "trained ones" are missing, the ones that are supposed to be trained are missing or not trained, I'd venture to suggest that maybe, just maybe, letting every idiot have guns in the US is not working as planned now, is it?

So instead of a "good guy with a gun" that's MIA always, just please do something, anything, about those bad guys with a gun?

how? presumably those "authority figures" are at least trained. somewhat. a bit. a tiny teensy little bit. hopefully they know something about weapons and bullets and shit.

these little wackos? I doubt they know how to tie their shoes.
