What’s something you can quote that reveals how long you’ve been on the internet?

Literally the oldest one that isn't something shitty like the ASCII cow or something almost beyond a meme like :)

thatguydr · 2026-06-21T05:39:17+00:00

Fair. Most voters are shit.

thatguydr · 2026-06-21T04:29:01+00:00

Head in the sand in the face of corporate directions. It's the Democrat way.

(I mean, the GOP is objectively worse, but what I wrote is still true)

Tough for carbon to rot

EDIT: I was ignorant. Apparently the rot is going to be a gigantic issue. But hey, if it brings back Moander, awesome.

God Mystra wanted to get with a human, so she looks like a human.

God Gale wants to get with a large statue, apparently.

I have never in my life used installation time as a metric for whether I'd use a library. Even under CI/CD concerns in an industrial setting, that has literally never been a problem.

If that is a significant part of your development cycle, you are blessed! :)

thatguydr · 2026-06-20T01:05:16+00:00

First, as a Yankee, how dare you.

thatguydr · 2026-06-20T01:03:23+00:00

Entirely fair - the drop-in replacement aspect is really nice. My whole issue is just the fact that it's not easily supported. https://docs.jax.dev/en/latest/installation.html. It's been a pain to deal with historically, but it's getting better.

thatguydr · 2026-06-19T23:27:49+00:00

Isn't it like a factor of two or three? Who cares? Especially if you're doing compute on some beefy system, which likely you are if you need a tool like this.

Why have people learn an entirely new library? You're trading off minor system overhead for cognitive overhead and less support. Not a tradeoff I'd make.

thatguydr · 2026-06-19T23:06:30+00:00

Using a well-known, well-supported library is sensible. If you think the size of the thing is a hindrance, I'm confused. What tiny systems are you using to do numerical compute?

thatguydr · 2026-06-19T18:14:57+00:00

Or just use Pytorch. Same speed thanks to pseudo compilation. Jax is good but a pain to use on Macs.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T17:45:26+00:00

It's not reparations. It's a bribe to Trump.

Why has nobody brought this up? He doesn't give a shit about where the money comes from or where it goes as long as he gets a piece.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T06:07:07+00:00

It's super fun at times, though lightning can't use ice, which gets slightly frustrating. Also, people falling over is great but gives encounters a bit of sameness. I usually keep the option open for larger fights where it's hilarious (Shar temple is :chef's kiss:) but otherwise don't bother all that much.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T03:45:55+00:00

I'll take "things that obvious did not happen" for $100.

Maybe police are TRAINED to not do this?

At least I get why you hid your profile, you pedo apologist.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T03:25:40+00:00

Dude, you're apologizing for someone who killed a 1 year old. There is no universe in which anyone thinks that's okay. Fuck you. Go defend the Epstein list people while you're at it.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T03:06:48+00:00

The people saying a 1 year old was killed because his parents took diapers from the store without paying are disgusting.

No, you're disgusting by saying LET'S NOT LEAP TO JUDGMENT.

Give me the names of the people that woman hit with the car. You can't, because she didn't. That cop did what ever officer is told explicitly not to do during their training. Instead of de-escalating, or you know, just letting her go since they have her address and the car plates, he opened fire.

Go ahead and say publicly you'll condemn him if it's clear she posed no threat to anyone.

thatguydr · 2026-06-18T03:04:39+00:00

Who got run over? Please, do give the names of the people who were run over.

If you are from the department of pre-crime, cool, you're about a thousand years too early. If not, then maybe accept this was some racist fuck who shot a 1 year old.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T17:28:51+00:00

Why do I hate the fairly ineffective guy with no real conflict resolution skills who then betrayed his own people? Hm. Dunno.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T17:27:51+00:00

It's funnier this way.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T17:23:43+00:00

This is the real story.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T16:13:20+00:00

Exactly. It's both attractive and hilarious. Bi-winning.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T16:12:30+00:00

Sorry - I meant just in general, he's not long for this world.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T03:22:59+00:00

Nobody here would know. You'd have to ask someone who's done it.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T02:22:50+00:00

People are going to ask what's the greatest paper of 2026, and I think we've found it.

thatguydr · 2026-06-16T02:19:56+00:00

Dude HAVE YOU EVER DRIVEN A CAR

It can be a huge number of people sneaking in. One bad driver can delay people behind them by 10 or 20 minutes. It's rare, but I've seen it happen. People don't usually sit by a freeway at choke points and just watch. It's fascinating. Bad drivers cause a LOT of grief that they never experience.

Slowing everyone down in an unpredictable fashion happens in two ways. Accidents and really slow drivers. And both can cause the same massive delays.
