Personally I love oranges but cant stand orange juice.

When something is taped, of possible, the piece of tape should have one corner folded over a little bit to make it easy to remove the tape.
You think it’s a sign that I got nothing that I may be taking myself a little too seriously?
We should ditch ethernet, coax, and copper completely for data transmission. Everything should be fiber cable. Fiber internet to the house, fiber throughout the house, etc.
I thought the same until I saw the price of the tools, copper is great.
Fiber throughout the house I think would be terrible simply because Ethernet cables get exposed to a lot of random stresses and a fiber cable would just snap. Of course this wouldn’t matter that much if they were ubiquitous because they would be inexpensive simply by virtue of mass production, but even so it would be a pain in the ass to have to go down to your local 24-hour retail store to purchase a new fiber cable because you accidentally knocked over your Wi-Fi router.
Not to mention that for home uses, 10 gig ethernet, CAT6A is more than sufficient for all but the most niche needs and most people will never saturate a 10 gig cable under the best of circumstances.
I talked to a high-end DIT once who’s pretty influential and even gets sponsorships. Corning gave him a fiber optic Thunderbolt cable made with Gorilla Glass. He said he could tie knots in it and it still worked. Made it real easy to take from filming location to filming location. Sounded like it was crazy expensive if anyone wanted to buy one, though.
Cat6 cable also has the admirable quality of being able to carry power as well as data.
Fibre… not so much.
Not the thin little bitch fibers were talking about for home use anyway. Need some of those thicc subsea fibers for that.
accidentally cut a power over fiber cable house bursts into flames as five million lumens of light erupts from the severed end
Ethernet would’ve been a great name for WiFi.
Especially mesh wifi.
You can do it, but the transceivers cost more. I have a fiber optic USB cable with embedded transceivers for long range use, beyond what USB can normally do. It was about $120, IIRC.
Also, for Ethernet, you can’t do Power Over Ethernet, which is useful for some devices.
maybe because it’s usb? fiber/ethernet sfp+ transvievers are about the same price ~$15 each. But ethernet modules consume a lot more power and have higher latency.
I imagine you could do power over fiber by simply using high-power lasers in your fiber connection, but it would be annoying and painful for you to accidentally break a fiber open and unleash an unaimed 45-watt fiber laser on yourself.
Pineapple on pizza is fine. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to eat it.
Double. Space. After. Periods.
Period.
Can Americans just switch their spelling back to standard English, please? Why do we have to have two systems of spelling just because the U.S. wanted to be different?
You inspire me. I love banana-flavored things, but I don’t like bananas.
I’m the opposite, except for banana cake, can eat that all day every day. But banana flavour sweets, milk/milkshake etc. you can keep, tastes disgusting to me, even a hint of it in a milkshake ruins it.
People shouldn’t be able to be told what color to paint their house. More people should experiment with wild colors inside and out.
There should be more mature games.
I don’t mean like sex games, I mean like games intended for adults that can have mature content and mature stories without it being heavily watered down.
Games should have as much leeway as the film or book industry when it comes to mature content - Though I guess that’s getting murky too lately.
A great example of this is Halo.
The Flood is a horrible body horror parasite that transforms your body and invades and consumes your mind, your thoughts and your memories. It’s corruption based on revenge of the Precursors for the Forerunner’s war against them out of petty anger. The original trilogy shows this off well, and acts like a horror game when you’re getting swarmed from all angles by them.
343 era games are like “bad guys are robots, Flood too scary and gorey we removed them.” All for that lower Teen rating just to sell more copies to a broader audience. They remove the bloodiness and the gore. Hell, you could make a lake of Covenant and human blood in CE. Now you might get a couple splashes of blood to not tip that ESRB scale.
Pathetically watered down in many other aspects, but this was one that always bothered me.
343 have no idea what the fuck they are doing and never have

I personally love the story of spec ops the line, in the end you’re not exactly a villain but you certainly dont feel like a hero
If a state isn’t at least partly in Central Time, it can’t be in the Midwest.
Obviously not all states in Central Time are in the Midwest, either, that’s just the lowest bar.
I think Indiana is solidly Midwest but on Eastern time
Parts are in central. Have a sister or bear the western edge
To me, that’s a contradiction in terms.
Growing corn isn’t enough; it takes a certain kind of attitude, and a certain kind of weather.
Then where do you consider ohio to be?
The Rust Belt
So is Milwaukee
The Middle East, obviously
People keep talking about increasingly higher amounts of preformance in computers with no real world practical use case. Aside from tech journalists the average person doesn’t really care about 4k or 120hz, companies should focus on hardware quality instead.
Many programming languages allow “trailing commas”:
my_list = [ 1, 2, 3, ]This is wonderful because you can treat the last element like the previous ones instead of having to make an exception. I use it all the time, even when it provides no benefit, and I think we should even start allowing it in natural language.
lemon baked goods taste like vomit
Why the fuck it’s it ‘on the one hand…. On the other hand….’ It should just be ‘on one hand… on the other’
If you use Bootstrap or Tailwind to make your CSS during web development, you have a fundamental ignorance and misunderstanding of your craft.
