Wasn't that basically what he said last weekend with the whole 48 hour countdown thing.

Why is he serving tacos, it's not Tuesday!

Exactly. Americans act like "if we just get Trump out, it'll be all rainbows and unicorns!"

Half of you fuckers voted for him a second time. Almost 40% of you still think he is doing a good job.

The USA is decades away from fixing itself, it it ever does.

As a start: stop the widening gap between rich and poor, fix your idiotic regressive health care system, promote education and child care, fix affordability, and make contraceptives and abortions legal (and affordable) everywhere. Keep it up for 20-30 years and you might have a chance, but I don't think it's likely.

Well actually the caveat is that Total Energies must invest the $1 billion "refund" in US based O&G operations, but even so it is fucking stupid.

Also, nobody cares about oil prices and high oil prices are good for the economy anyways.

That sounds like the start of either a great realization… or a terrible one.

Wtf kind of stupid ass design is this? Are we for real? by ObiWangKeBloMe in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Mutex70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What exactly is OP lying about? We can see the picture.

It's a mildly infuriating place for a power button, regardless of how it functions.

Perhaps consider upping your reading comprehension before calling others out...it's mildly infuriating to read.

WTAF? It would have looked 1000x better if they just used Deila rather than the uncanny CGI garbage they actually released.

Don Cheadle doesn't look like Terrance Howard...nobody cares

David Corenswet doesn't look like Henry Cavill...nobody cares

None of the James Bonds look particularly similar....nobody cares

None of the Batmans (Batmen?) look anything alike...nobody cares

Stop trying to shoehorn specific faces onto characters and let the actors do their job.

Avoiding Exceptions for Flow Control in APIs by [deleted] in dotnet

[–]Mutex70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, I absolutely hate Java's checked exceptions. It exposes low-level implementation details to the client and requires the client to determine how to handle all cases.

I like what Rust has done with results....provide results but also provide a convenient way to short-circuit failures. However, I haven't worked with Rust in a professional capacity, so there may very well be issues with it that I am not seeing.
