    The other day, got an email about someone getting into my github account. Went to reset the password today (there's nothing there, so I wasn't fussed), but according to github, I don't have an account with that email... The password looked like "|:.ap1d5LUw#!QL=*blWYXvIH", just a randomly generated password from my password manager. How in the world could someone have gotten in? And why just delete it lmao. Edit: Oh - the email is incorrect on github. It's got a period in it, but the actual address doesn't. Weird.

    And in this same multiverse, there's places you'll never go/people you'll never be, because those choices arent presented to you. And largely, those choices are predicated on your starting conditions. And when we lump it all as personal responsibility, it ignores the very real imbalances in opportunities in our society. In my view, anyway, when you talk about personal responsibility as if it's the be all end all to success and happiness, it becomes easier to not work to better other people, and to not try and make a more fair and just society.

    On the other hand, he's gotten help from government stuff in the past, which is it's own way of needing help to control your life. Certainly it's hard to say that he would be just as capable of controlling his life without that assistance. And someone in the past had to ask for that.

    It's got a bunch of random links, so I'd guess it's a trash site for pushing gold selling sites up higher in search engine lists using keywords and whatnot. Idk if the references to specific people is helpful, but I suppose they just use a spider to crawl these and other forums to find relative search terms, so... It's a fun game of find who is "relevant" enough to be featured. [hide] Tylerelyt - No Goonstalf - Yeah! abc1230 - yes Halo2proman - no Death Miasma - no Dax - No D.V. Devnull - No. I'm sad about this one. He has such a strong presence on this forum. [/hide]

    I'm so close to 27 can it wait a year so I can't get drafted pls I would say the odds are low that you'll get drafted just based on how we fight wars nowadays, but I recently learned that the US military is understaffed by several thousand as it is, when WW3 *isn't* happening, so who knows. The country with largest military budget is understaffed? Yes. They can't get citizens to sign up for the military, and there's not much more they can offer than "free college in America aka hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt avoided" to incentivize people. Plus, why offer more money to get people to join when instead you can have chronic and severe sleep deprivation from all your soldiers and get the same thing?

    Yeah, and the particularly bad case I want that ability for is this bit of code that multiplies 150 factors together to get a premium, so if I need to debug that premium I have to add 150 watches, which slows down visual studio just a smidge

    I know way more about vb.net than I want to, so I'm curious what the question was now lolhttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/47023652/can-i-see-datatips-in-visual-studio-vb-net-when-i-hover-over-variables-in-a-wi

    I've asked 1 question about the worst feature in any language. With statements in vb.net. The answer wasnt online, and after I asked my question, it still is not.

    Everyone got too butthurt about Justin Beiber thats why they stopped.

    Is it so much to ask for comments at the top of methods explaining what they do? Is that an excessive expectation? Because it seems like no one does that, and I don't understand why, because the moment I learned to do that, my code became 100% more readable and I immediately understood the benefit... I'm so tired of asking what code does at work

    Arguments are usually about social capital and "winning," not truth seeking.

    To be fair, I don't think most self taught programmers have anywhere near the skill Veiva has at organizing and designing code. I imagine you get a lot more poor programming practices out of someone who never had to show their code to someone else. That being said, the classes I took in college didn't really teach me about writing maintainable, object-oriented code, beyond just teaching me what classes and interfaces are. I'm constantly aware of how I don't have those skills and how hard it is for me to write well structured code. So a magic paper doesn't really guarantee that either.

    A former friend guilt tripped me into giving them my cat at the beginning of the year, and the paperwork I mailed them ~a month ago just came back in the mail with something about it being unclaimed. I'm really tired of this whole thing, I just wish I could stop getting reminders every time I think I'm done interacting with them.

    I had a roommate in college who only drank Costco milk for 100% of his caloric intake, and apparently it turned his shit white & liquidy. Thank goodness this was before I roomed with him.

    It's not even spring yet how can you be on spring break already ;-; I miss spring break. I wanna week off work :/

    I wondered the same. When the day comes that the benevolent site owner stops paying the bill, will we get a warning? Or will it just go down? I legit don't even know who pays for this site anymore, so like, I don't know if I could complain if that's what happened.
  19. I mean, I posted 20+ games a few months back, and the only ones people posted in were both counting games. Counting games are boring. You wanna make fg more active, you gotta post on things that are more fun. 21266 Edit: By a few months, apparently I meant years. I posted those in 2016. Holy shit...
  20. If this is a topic you're particularly interested in, I would recommend Elizabeth Brake's Minimizing Marriage. In it, she coins the term amatonormativity, which is basically the idea that romantic, monogamous relationships hold more value than familial or platonic relationships, and everyone should be looking for one. It's a phrase that's fairly popular in the ace & aro communities, for probably obvious reasons, but I don't see it much outside of there. But I think it's pretty relevant to this discussion. Here's a blog post she made that summarizes it, if you're looking for the tl;dr version. As for why society encourages monogamous relationships, if you believe tumblr, it's because nuclear families are easier to exploit than other familial structures under capitalism.

    Better get that looked at, your fuel lines might be needing a replacement.Honestly, that car was worth $300, any repairs I did would have cost more than the car itself probably. I was racing to replace before I had to repair the brakes.
  22. Hey, here's not a surprise: heteronormativity is shitty, even for straight people.

    Well, it's the car dealer's problem now

    On the subject of cars, mine wouldnt start tonight. Random guy saw me having troubles, listened to it crank for 5 seconds, and immediately knew I just needed to press the gas pedal to get it to start. I tried googling how in the world he knew that, or how it even helped, but google thinks I'm a dunce that knows nothing about cars (accurate)

    In fairness, those are pretty common first-time-driver problems, especially the acceleration bit.
