FANTASTIC reference! This movie is so funny and awesome, and it seems to have completely disappeared from pop culture. I never understood why Conan looms so large in our collective memory, but this movie totally vanished.

I’m a Darn Tough sock devotee. Same deal as you. I didn’t want to spend the money for a long time, then I finally shelled out for 8 pairs. This was many years ago, and still wear them daily. I’ve since added a couple more pairs.
You might be talking about Never10, made by Steve Gibson over at GRC.com. It has since been updated and renamed InControl. It now also works to prevent unwanted Win11 upgrades, as well as other things. https://www.grc.com/incontrol.htm
I loved Sigur Ros when they first broke the scene around 1999. I thought it was so beautiful, and angelic, and weirdly transcendent. I wondered what beautiful poetry was being sung in this mystical Icelandic language I did not speak. Then, I learned that it’s not Icelandic. It’s not anything. It’s a made up language that means nothing. It shouldn’t really bother me, but I felt like I had been tricked, and haven’t been able to get past it.
Thanks for this tip. I hadn’t heard about this before, and it sounds like an interesting thing to add to my tool chest.
so if you browse youtube that can go via a country that does not allow ads.
Can you tell me more about this? I’ve never heard about that this is a thing, and it sounds like a good thing to known
I bet people love working with you…
Thanks for your feedback, Kit. You may be glad to realize that I had already done exactly what you suggest I should have done, which is recommend that OP get checked out. Have a great night!
Welcome to Lemmy!
You might want to look into getting checked out for ADHD. Someone close to me was diagnosed as an adult a few years ago, and your behavior overlaps somewhat with their behavior. Many hours of making schedules and charting plans, but a strong mental block with putting plans into action to actually get things done. It’s more common than you’d think.
This is the way.
Rage Against the Machine and Public Enemy come immediately to mind.
Edit: I guess those would fall into, what you call, “angry genres”. Not sure if that matters when it comes to spreading information. Popular is popular regardless of tone, and what is popular changes pretty regularly.
I like it! I’m only a hobbyist programmer, but I’m 100% guilty of this.
Sure. It depends on the work. I only reference the quote when it is applicable.
These aren’t necessarily my favorite quotes, but they are the two I find myself referencing almost daily in my work life.
“We never seem to have the time to do it right, yet we always seem to find the time to do it twice.”
“You can save hours of planning with weeks of work.”
How much land, and where?
You’re seeing the classic challenge of pricing, if you sell 10 copies at $30 would you sell 20 at $15 and make the same off it? You can’t tell without lowering the price, and once you do that, going back up if it doesn’t work will make people angry. Sales can help gauge this if you aren’t feeling confident.
This is what I don’t see enough people discussing here. Many are saying they are interested in purchasing a lifetime “pay once” option, but not for $30 (I’m one of them). I would 100% buy the lifetime option for $15. How many others would? More than twice the amount willing to pay $30? I wouldn’t be surprised if that were the case.
That is interesting. I just remoted into 5 different machines at the office and none of them worked with ‘ls’. If you enter ‘ls /?’, does it give you a synopsis and argument list?
As of Aug 26, 2023, Windows command prompt absolutely does not recognize “ls” as a command.
Powershell is a different story.
Source: I type “ls” 40 times a day into a command prompt on my up-to-date win10 PC at work.
In the US, a conductor is the one who checks tickets, makes announcements, and delegates tasks to the crew to help ensure things keep moving on time.
The locomotive engineer is the one who is “driving” the train. They run the engine and communicate with dispatch and traffic control to keep them informed where this particular train is fitting into the overall juggling act,. They also make every effort to keep things safe (watching for signals, obstructions, etc.).
I’m not 100% sure if the terminology is different outside of the Us.
