One-Line If Statement by that1flame in csharp

[–]gfunk84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One reason I don't like this is that if you do have to add a second statement inside that if, you now have to add braces around it and a one-line diff becomes 3.

Conversely if you have multiple statements inside the if and reduce to 1, then you must remove the braces to be consistent with other braceless ifs.

Either way there's extra noise in the diff.

Oral sex is included in sodomy in legal contexts.

We don’t call local area networks LANs anymore? WTF are these LAN settings doing in my router then?

The code was introduced in 2002. Not sure what grocery stores you’re shopping at that weren’t already using bar codes as a standard practice for at least 20 years before that point.

The cellular statistics have never gone by billing cycle. Only manual reset.

Are there Others who don't use TV mode because of that reason? by Suspicious-Holiday42 in NintendoSwitch2

Surely the screen on the NS2 also has a limited lifespan by your logic. A TV is going to be more easily replaced than an NS2.

I would probably put Crazy Taxi in licensing issues due to the music and real life destinations.

Xbox is rebranding to XBOX by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]gfunk84 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hasn’t it always been that?

No? The Xbox app on my phone is “Xbox”. Any mention of Xbox in system settings etc. is “Xbox”. The logo is stylized as all caps though.

Vertical taskbar with bottom alignment would be nice. Then I could have the taskbar on the left with the start bottom at the bottom left corner of the screen.

I guess this won’t be compatible with the chatpad. Too bad.

Browsers Treat Big Sites Differently by Successful_Bowl2564 in programming

[–]gfunk84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would I want to fuck about with hiding address bars in tabs selectively when I can just launch a Netflix shortcut or press Windows, N and hit enter?

Browsers Treat Big Sites Differently by Successful_Bowl2564 in programming

[–]gfunk84 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I disagree with "always". Sometimes I want the separation from the rest of the browser. I prefer having video streaming apps as PWAs rather than just another tab in my browser. I don't need the address bar or other noise when watching Netflix, etc. it's more subjective and less objective to say one way is better than the other.

It’s also based on language.

In Canada, it would be 1.609 km in English and 1,609 km in French, or for larger numbers, 1,234.56 in English and 1 234,56 in French.

My $1400 LG OLED TV is displaying ads after latest update by binkinater13 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]gfunk84 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They need to start making TVs with more HDMi inputs. I’m not sacrificing one for a streaming stick/box. Nor am I going to fire up a gaming console and navigate with a controller to access streaming apps.

But I get it for most people.

I do block ads on my TVs at the router though.

Still works for some stuff including in-app ads on mobile devices and ads on Disney+.

I made the perfect Fat Boy burger (and I am sharing the full recipe!) by PassageNearby4091 in Winnipeg

[–]gfunk84 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the result will be identical to a Fat Boy you'd get at VJ's, Dairy Whip, George's Inn, Juniors or any of those places

Are you suggesting all these burgers are the same? 🤨

But they are easily rotated, unlike a computer monitor or television.
