I’m morbidly curious whether Trump supporters actually believe this kind of shit, but ultimately I don’t think that question even has an answer.

Aside from what everyone else is saying, don’t use dependencies that you don’t have to. Particularly don’t use big “frameworks”. If you use any dependencies, use tiny, focused ones that do one thing. The more code there is underneath what you’re writing, the more likely it will cause problems that you will internalize. I’ve seen it many times. Spring (Java), for instance, will do something not as advertised, and devs will think they’re bad coders because they “can’t write code that works as it’s supposed to.” Avoiding that vicious cycle will make you a better coder in the long run.

Also, when things aren’t working with your dependencies, do google for fixes, but don’t google too long. If you haven’t got a solution after an hour of no progress, look at your dependencies’ source code until you understand why and how to fix it.

If you get this joke without looking it up, 10 internet points to you.

Challenges in 2034:

• Survive infancy with no medical care except the LLM your assigned insurance conglomerate provides. (Which is only able to prescribe Ozempic and anxiolytics.
• Hack the pre-installed digitized Elon Musk consciousness out of your mandatory XTesLink™ Not-An-Enslavement-Device™ brain implant without letting him find out beforehand lest he trigger the built-in “re-education” module.
• Escape the coal mine without exceeding your quota of oxygen, triggering the alarm.
• Don’t die of radiation poisoning. Or Sars-CoV-2029. Or high-velocity lead poisonin due to looking “ethnic” in the vicinity of a Paw Patrol™ robotic police unit.

“Osama Bin who?” And in a similar vein, “Jihad? That’s a Dune reference, right?”

“I’ll cash in on my Beanie Baby investment when it’s time to pay for my kid’s college tuition.”

“The internet is just a fad.”

“I’m so excited for the next The Matrix sequel.”

“Two bedrooms and a walk-out basement. $300 a month rent.”

You sweet summer child.

The term refers to My Little Pony porn. Or it can be used as a verb to refer to what someone who really likes MLP porn does while viewing MLP porn.

The term “clop” is used by bronies very similarly to how furries use the term “yiff”.

I know that what’s censored on two of the ponies is probably logos of schools he attended or something and he doesn’t want that much identifying info out there, but I choose to believe what’s censored is clop content.

But I don’t listen to Tool.

…well, not exclusively.

I think having a way to delete accounts is legally required by some jurisdictions. And sometimes if a site does business in such a jurisdiction and are required to have a way to do that, they’ll still offer that option those outside the jurisdictions in question. (It’s easier to just allow everyone who asks than to have rules keeping track of who can and can’t legally demand it.)

But if this is an image board hosted in Japan intended for a Japanese audience, and if Japan has no such legal requirements (or if such requirements don’t apply here for some reason), then, your experience with websites that operate in/for countries where they speak your language(s) notwithstanding, it’s highly plausible this site just doesn’t have any way to delete accounts.

Your concern is that a breach of the site’s data may leak some information about you that you wouldn’t want to leak, yes?

If so, and if you can still use similar methods to navigate the site in question, use those methods to edit your account/profile details to scrub the account of anything that you wouldn’t want to leak. Change it to use a fake name. Change the email address to somthrowaway email address. Change the password to something unrelated to any passwords you could possibly use on any other sites so that if the hash is leaked and brute forced, no one can use that to gain access to any of your other accounts. Delete individual posts or pieces of content that you’ve uploaded.

Actually, I can read (barely) enough Japanese to figure out that the registration process seems to only want your email address and password. (Though I haven’t gone through the whole signup process.) You mentioned uploading a file, yeah? I’m guessing the amount of stuff you’d have to do to overwrite/delete every bit of data they have on you is pretty limited.

And, yes, I suppose there’s the potential caveat that that might not affect backups and such, but I’d wager a lot of the other account deletion requests you’ve done don’t affect things like backups either.

No, see, how it would work without timezones is:

• Everyone would use UTC and a 24-hour clock rather than AM/PM.
• If that means you eat breakfast at 1400 hours and go to bed around 400 hours and that the sun is directly overhead at 1700 hours (or something more random like 1737), fine. (Better than fine, actually!)
• Every area keeps track of what time of day daily events (like meals, when school starts or lets out, etc) happen. Though I think generally rounding to the nearest whole hour or, maybe in some cases, half hour makes the most sense. (And it’s not even like everyone in the same area keeps the same schedule as it is now.)
• You still call the period before when the sun is directly overhead “morning” and the period after “afternoon” and similarly with “evening”, “night”, “dawn”, “noon”, “midnight” etc.
• One caveat is that with this approach, the day-of-the-month change (when we switch from the 29th of the month to the 30th, for instance) happens at different times of the day (like, in the above example it would be close to 1900 hours) for different people. Oh well. People will get used to it. But I think it still makes the most sense to decide that the days of the week (“Monday”, “Tuesday”, etc) last from whatever time “midnight” is locally to the following midnight, again probably rounding to the nearest whole hour. (Now, you might be thinking "yeah, but that’s just timezones again. But consider those timezones. The way you’d figure out what day of the week it was would involve taking the longitude and rounding. Much simpler than having to keep a whole-ass database of all the data about all the different timezones. And it would only come into play when having to decide when the day of the week changes over.)
• Though, one more caveat. If you do that, then there has to be a longitudinal line where it’s always a different day of the week on one side than it is just on the other side. But that’s already the case today, so not really a drawback relative to what we have today.

The creator of DST gets the first slap. Then the timezones asshole.

I’m planning to do a presentation at work on how to deal with dates/times/timezones/conversion/etc in the next few weeks some time. I figure it would be a good topic to cover. I’m going to start my talk by saying “first, imagine there is no such thing as timezones or DST.” And then build on that.

Windows, I will always remember it being the best thing for business’s as Microsoft pushes licenses and such business related features.

Most businesses I’m familiar with deserve to have to deal with Microsoft BS.

Well, yeah. It’s OpenSea. That’s like saying “76% of videos on Pornhub are porn.”

From the content of this thread, I’m betting there’s a lot of selection bias going on. The ones who don’t scroll past. The ones who do post.

And I’ll follow that pattern. I still live with my mother. Never moved out. Live in the same house I was raised in. But my mother was never really financially stable. My grandmother with whom my mother and I lived… well, she managed to keep us housed and fed with credit card debt, which honestly worked out very well.

Anyway, I was kindof the only person who really made much of an income in my household and have been financially supporting my parents for decades now. (Though my grandmother passed on a few years back and left me a life insurance policy.)

I’m 37 now.

There’s a reason why they call it a “suicide”.

Their healthcare system is insane (sorry Americans but it is)

Don’t apologize! If anything that’s an understatement. And everything else you said is on point too.
