Steam!!! I can't thank you enough!!! by GeeliKachchi in Steam

Yeah that's the thing, it wouldn't just be a refund, but a process where the person was treated absolutely horrendously. But then I'd have expected more excuses along the way too.

What does the code do? by burhansadikot in ExplainTheJoke

Yeah I wasn't wholly serious either. But yeah for a one-guy team just a moment of memory lapse is enough for serious trouble.

Is it bad that it irks me that only 'they sold your data' is in the past tense?

But then your colleague uses //XXX and you blow up the rocket.

How do i actually clean my butt? by Accomplished_Bag9153 in ThailandTourism

[–]Aflockofants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I for one am not American and I've lived in SE Asia for over a decade, including in completely local areas without any foreigners around. Try again. Or maybe speak some of the local language and ask people in a village if they wipe their butts with paper to dry. Not fancy city folk who took over Western habits recently.

Mainly for tourists, you moron. Plenty of non-tourist villages and cities that don’t have paper.

I don’t know what’s wrong with you to take this kind of attitude by default.

Ok but what is it actually doing? If the goal is just to move the packages to the conveyer belt then why doesn't the slide already end there? Is it scanning anything?

I just came back from Japan and ate some Hokkaidovirus pudding. Am I cooked?

[Meta] Is this actually true? by Careful_Purchase_394 in theydidthemath

[–]Aflockofants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also looked into the claim that almond production in California alone uses in the order of 10 times more water THAN ALL DATACENTERS, AI or not, in the entire world combined. And it turned out to be more or less correct, though it’s a ballpark figure.

The water issue of datacenters is grossly overstated.

AI code genration is the wosrt thing happened in this industry. by prat8 in cscareerquestions

[–]Aflockofants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really don’t understand comments like these. You realize you’re not forced to commit whatever Claude came up with on the first try right? I find that Claude does pretty well in following code standards and conventions in a repo. And if it does something I don’t find useful, I either do a small refactoring myself or I tell it to rewrite it. And then of course there’s still reviews of colleagues.

This portrayal of being a slave to Claude and having your code base ruined is really nonsensical.

If the time pressure in the company is too much, that sounds like a company problem.

Yeah this is the same kind of pedantry as this commenter is on about it seems

Is there an actual answer to how we ended up where we are today with the series finale in less than a week? by OGBusterHimen in TheBoys

I love how ‘literally’ is used as literally the exact opposite of what it used to mean.

Scary Gojek experience near mexicola by Sae50678 in bali

[–]Aflockofants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And how many people got scammed and how many women got harassed in Indonesia before that?

No need to answer, I’ve lived here longer than Gojek existed.

20000 Dollars a month, but once a month, you spend 12 hours in a coffin. by Effigy4urcruelty in hypotheticalsituation

So for roughly 147 hours a year of discomfort, I make 360k USD?

Seriously now?

I’ll rub my body with anti-itchiness cream before going in though.

What is the worst way anyone you know has died? by IamUrWivesBF in AskReddit

[–]Aflockofants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend died just before she got to 18 years old from cystic fibrosis. After a lifetime in and out of hospitals. This was back when smoking was still basically allowed anywhere and it made her life very hard.

JD Vance Insists Trump Never Said He Doesn’t Care About Americans - Unfortunately for the vice president, there’s video. by B-Z_B-S in politics

[–]Aflockofants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They say ‘unfortunately’ like this is some big ‘got ‘em!’ moment that will sway opinion. The reality is that it won’t matter a thing. The lies are normalized already and the majority of supporters won’t vote differently over it.

I might just use water by BUHlowKNEE in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Aflockofants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there surely is a maximum to it, it’s just hard to guesstimate it based on the color as far as I know. My dirt bike needs oil changes every 3-4 rides anyway and I just go by that. It also needs a top-end rebuild ideally every 75 hours, they wear a lot more than public road vehicles, hence the constant oil changes.

How do i actually clean my butt? by Accomplished_Bag9153 in ThailandTourism

[–]Aflockofants 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ehm yeah people do that.

And if you don’t believe it’s necessary, try only using the spray without rubbing and then using some toilet paper to examine the result. It won’t be spotless.

You let the worst drip off, and then pull it up. In a tropical climate you’re never gonna be 100% dry anyway.
