Thoughts and prayers.

I almost feel embarrassed for him. Almost.

This isn’t specifically related to coding. I’m taking about any manual, be it for a programming language, or a microwave oven. Regarding my particular field of endeavor, how many people that drive cars are even remotely familiar with the actual road rules legislation, or even looked at them since they got their licence? See also the people that complain about following Ikea instructions as if they aren’t the simplest possible instructions to follow.

“Where do you see yourself in five years?”

“I don’t.”

Trump lied!? Stop the fuckin’ presses. :|

As someone that always Reads The Fucking Manual, it’s frustrating to live in a world full of people that never Read The Fucking Manual.

I Obey!

I see your point, but I’ve been giving this some thought, and here’s why I think he only deserves to be forgotten. Terry Pratchett said that a man only truly dies when no-one ever speaks their name again. Kirk is physically dead, but even in mockery, this stuff is keeping him alive in everyone’s minds. All he ever wanted was attention. All these ‘conservative’ grifters ever want is attention. Kirk, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Tim Pool, Candice Owens and the rest of them are the same. The strongest weapon against them is to ignore them, like all trollers. Attention, even the negative kind, only fuels them further. You don’t need to remember them to be able to spot future examples - they tend to stand out.

The only way Kirk will ever truly be dead is when we never hear anything about him again. I bet even his harpy of a wife has forgotten about him at this point. So should we.

Edit to add: Meanwhile, Tyler Robinson, the real victim here - a dumb kid that, allegedly, made a bad decision - languishes in jail, largely forgotten, with spurious evidence as to his guilt. Gun violence and school shootings continue unabated, the victims nameless and forgotten. Gun control continues to be largely ignored and nothing has fucking changed! But yeah, let’s remember Charlie Fucking Kirk.

For a company that loves power its crazy to think they are just ok handing over a decent chunk of that power to another company

While at the same time fighting unions every step of the way.

I can’t think of a single fast food place with burger patties as pathetic as McDonald’s

It doesn’t even smell like food. To my shame, I occasionally crave a double quarter-pounder, as awful as I know they are. I usually eat it in the car, but last time, I took it home and left it on the table while I went to the loo, and the smell filling my flat when I came back was not appetising in the least.

No, but it doesn’t surprise me.

Only other cruel dickheads that like to punch down.

It’s hard enough to get a human to understand your order through those crappy microphones.

I’m sure they’re putting all those costs onto the franchisees. McDonalds the corporation won’t feel a thing.

This is all according to plan. The owner class needs to keep the plebs stupid.

Even worse, they seem to be succeeding.

Yeah, it’s old, and yet it still works on those idiots.

Same goes for the old dihydrogen monoxide one.

Church groups used to serve that purpose for me, but I gave up religion a long time ago.

It’s not an ‘industry’. Industries produce things. Crypto needs choking to death, and the likes of Andeessen along with it. They are only used to scam people.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
