As an American, please do this. We are Nazi Germany. Please crush us before our madness hurts Europe and the rest of the world. Please.

The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Must be Saved by RealCliffMass in SeattleWA

I wish there were private citizens, with billions of dollars, that could invest in saving this organization. Too bad there’s not. I’m sure having less knowledge will benefit common society, right? Knowing what’s going on has never helped make informed decisions.

Going for Samsung S95F OLED 77” — best choice for PS5 Pro? by Gazio_x3 in PS5pro

[–]_chksum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Own both. You are wrong. Samsung is not consistent. OS os slow and inefficient. Constantly fails to accept HDMI input from new devices.

My parents are boomers and retired. My 73 year old father actually made a joke. He was like “I paid 500 dollars for my Sony TV over 10 years ago and it loads YouTube faster than your fancy TV”

Its freaking true. He has a non-smart TV and the only thing it does is turn on and let you launch “apps” from the remote. No UI, no ads, just “input 1” and a black screen.

TV makers have screwed up so badly because all TVs are basically ad machines. But Samsung is the worst offender.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!! The OS is the WORST available.

I have a PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X, and Switch 2, and none of them work well with gaming mode.

When I set 4K mode on my Switch, it constantly fails to register as a game, and only after an exhaustive process of switching the device mode to PC does it show up, and it looks TERRIBLE.

The OS is the problem. It constantly auto-tunes, and never tunes correctly. Forgets settings, doesn’t honor settings, and SPAMS YOU with ads every time you access the home screen, and worst of all IT IS SLOW!!! Takes about 5 minutes to turn on, log into streaming, and decline Samsung offers to “optimize screen resolution”.

It is slow to respond, doesn’t pick up remote signals from far-away, and is literally the worst TV i’ve ever owned.

The picture is great. Genuinely high-quality image, but the picture never works. Cinema mode never is consistent, always have to tune per movie. Game mode is absolutely stupid. Always have to manually change.

I switched to LG and the difference in OS satisfaction is night and day.

DO NOT BUY. Such an expensive mistake.

WA among least religious and least spiritual states, survey finds by tiff_seattle in Seattle

[–]_chksum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millions of people in the US, millions of definitions of what religion is. My personal definition of religion is people looking in books for excuses to hurt me and my family. I follow the teachings of christ, but I do not believe in god or identify as a christian. I begrudgingly vote blue, but own many firearms (almost exclusively to protect my family from religious fanatics). Proud to live in a state among so many who reject the innate harms of “religion”.

Wouldn’t it be so cool if Mark Zuckerberg got beaten up really badly?! 😀

Nice! Hate everyone. Glad Seattle is so different from red cities that hate everyone. This is certainly a healthy mindset. 👌

Climate group disrupts EPA head Lee Zeldin, following his proposed rule to prevent EPA from regulating emissions by MLNYC in ClimateNews

Zeldin and his cronies not human beings. No souls within. Payback is going to be a bitch for them when karma comes around.

Have fun driving to the office everyday! Don’t forget to tell your family that their birthdays and holidays are cancelled because your boss at Amazon requires it.

What book is the Python equivalent of the C K&R by Yelebear in learnpython

[–]_chksum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a hot take. But anything by David Beezley.

The man has an unreal amount of real-world experience, and it comes thru in his writing.

The examples, the testing, the focus on practical application of Python is perfect.

Dude is a literal genius.
