I pay $10/month for copilot because it saves me a lot more than $10 in time not spent typing out boilerplate or searching through garbage documentation.

It frees up my mind to focus on the actual software architecture instead of the quirks of the language.

No these look accurate. My mom adds extra tomato juice and cooks them low and slow until the cabbage melts in your mouth and the edges of the pan turn black.

The big issue I have with most cabbage rolls is they put too much emphasis on the filling. The filling doesn't matter, the spices don't matter. It's all about the cabbage. Towards the end of the batch I usually end up scooping out the filling and just eating the cabbage leaves and leftover tomato.

8 years would be the Nexus 6P. I booted mine up last year and aside from the faulty SoC it's still a perfectly usable phone. Those dual front facing speakers are still great. Battery life is poor, but then it was poor to begin with.

I think we've also plateaued in terms of features. A phone in 2030 will probably have a brighter screen and slightly better camera, but outside of synthetic benchmarks I doubt it's going to look or feel any different than the Pixel 8 will in day to day use.

Semicolons are optional in JavaScript unless you are combining multiple statements on a single line, which is generally not something you should be doing anyway.

I avoid them whenever possible. It encourages people to write poorly formatted code. But then I'm a python dev so I tend to be opinionated when it comes to whitespace.

D4 was dead the moment they announced D2R. Why would I pay $80 for a game with microtransactions and battlepass when I can pay $50 for a game that comes complete in box?

They should have taken D2R kept the mechanics and just rolled new classes, maps, and items.

I don't want a new game, I just want more content.

A good chunk of both my TikTok and YouTube feed is already Canadian content creators.

It's in their best interest to promote local results because they tend to be more engaging.

I doubt any of the social media platforms will have to change anything, and the streaming services already have CanCon sections.

Google didn't buy HTC. They bought the parts of the company responsible for making the first Pixel phone.

HTC is still a separate entity. They just don't release 25 phones/year now, and all of their stuff is mid-range garbage.

I worked at a grocery store and the produce department got a big load of fresh cilantro in. My eyes watered as I walked into the back room. I thought they had just done a shitty job of cleaning the floors.

If Debian works on your hardware and you just want something that works and doesn't give you issues then yes its a good choice. It will just work happily in the background for years.

Fedora Server is a great choice if its something you want to continuously tinker with. Each release averages a little over 1 year of support so you'll want to do a dist upgrade after each new version comes out.

I'm currently considering switching to it on a couple of production servers I manage because they rely on PostGIS. EL9 and Debian rely on the official postgres repositories rather than shipping their own .deb/rpms and the official postgres repository's GIS packages are so unreliable I think it would be more stable on Arch. With Fedora server however I can just install postgres and postgis from the official community repo.

My new connector hell is trying to find a micro usb cable to charge that one device I still have that uses it.

Nearly every food item on the shelf has plastic. Aluminum cans are lined with plastic on the inside, glass bottles have a plastic freshness seal/cap. Even pasta boxes, one of the few cardboard packaged goods that don't have an inner plastic liner often have a little plastic window so you can see what the pasta looks like.

And yet we're being told that plastic bags are the problem. Literally the only plastic thing you get from the grocery store that isn't single use. Instead we have paper bags which are bulkier and have a higher carbon footprint, and we still end up with a bunch of actually single use plastic bags because we no longer have anything to use as small garbage bags.

My aunt's 2017 Mazda didn't have my house in the GPS. It was built in 2011.
