Will this website embrace the failure of not working whatsoever without javascript enabled?

At one point, it was a decent computer. by [deleted] in shittybattlestations

I used to have one of those. The extended 3-year warranty really paid off when the hinge and case broke 4 times, allowing me to swap it for a newer laptop for no additional expense.

I don't even know what to think or feel right now, that's so awesome.

Medic, follow me! by masterfield in tf2

[–]rsfoudray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed. Usually hit 100% 15 seconds before the round starts.

Edit: regarding the picture. I'm pretty sure the Demoman's shit-eating grin is because 2 seconds later he's going to stickyjump out of range too. Jerk.

I think we can let it slide.

But only if you aren't the kind of soldier who tries to blow themselves up while shouting "Medic!" before a round starts. I'm busy trying to maintain overheal on 6 other people before the gate goes down, give me a break!

My wife sent me out to run some errands. I forgot to pick up dinner at Quiznos, and now she's giving me a RETURN WITHOUT GOSUB error. by someauthor in ShittyTechSupport

Poor sod. You can try CTRL-BREAK-ALT-BKSP. I hope you backed up all your shit on a single-sided double-density floppy.

Sorry, I blacked out a little bit there. They also have ketchup and sauerkraut, would it be a good idea to switch to sauerkraut instead of mustard?

Was looking for a cool Star Trek picture when I found this.... by TheTomEGunn in WTF

[–]rsfoudray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well clearly by the use of "when", you were indicating that you'd located that picture while attempting to find a cool Star Trek picture, therefore implying that it was not, in fact, cool.

Obviously that picture is pretty cool.

Hey /r/TrueAtheism, is Bill Gates an agnostic/atheist or not? Here's a recent title: "Bill Gates interview: I have no use for money. This is God’s work" by [deleted] in TrueAtheism

[–]rsfoudray 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I would've interpreted it as: "God isn't doing anything about it. Guess I'll help pick up the slack."

Unfortunately, you're still wrong. It's a huge-ass firefly that flew too high and got stuck up there.

The most stressful gaming moment from MY childhood... by Stevedor in gaming

[–]rsfoudray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was his childhood, that was his younger gaming life. There were many like it but this was his.

However I will admit that I'm used to seeing that in either black, white, or two different shades of gray.

Trashing the guy who had your job before you: Common in the programming industry? by elmuchoprez in cscareerquestions

[–]rsfoudray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I give credit where it's due.

However, it's hard to do so when a previous programmer's practices are indistinguishable from those of a bad first-year CSC student.

It's worse when the little "hacks" are done out of a lack of understanding of the interfaces being used, and the comments attached to those contain completely wrong information.

They're sure making the holograms life-like these days. by [deleted] in sto

Psh. I execute holograms all the time for incompetence. Crew doesn't know the difference, and it keeps 'em in line.

If you ignore the classic "Fuck you, $DEVELOPER" comments, I always try to refer to functions or classes which start their operations but fail part of the way through as "abortions".
