@nixCraft Imagine the time to fly from Berlin to New York is trivial than parking in New York. What a time to live.

@nixCraft The ultimate proof that PowerPoint is less necessary than people think.

@arstechnica What a great way to reveal your identity for something that you don't want to reveal your identity for.

@arstechnica Was WeChat successful outside China by any chance?

@nixCraft ...as long as your cat can tolerate mental scars from existing developers and maintainers (or Linus himself).

@arstechnica I still wonder why they don't produce imitation meat out of them inatead of serving them as a whole despite some visual aversion.

@arstechnica I know storing documents on another person's computer makes some people uncomfortable, but because I don't actually value most of my documents as a private property, Cloud-based office suites become a good fit for me.

@nixCraft Hign on :w

@nixCraft I believe you'd understand my black and white profile pic.

@arstechnica Although I'm concerned whether it's strictly on a legal ground, I cannot but be skeptical on that "protest." How? By cranking up their public "pranks?"

@nixCraft Tons of jobs are safe, but lawmakers are 101% safe practically by definition.

@arstechnica Makes you question whether you need to pay more to something you won't even notice.

@arstechnica Yeah. Pretend you didn't know about it when you avoided knowing about it.

@arstechnica For someone who didn't read it but make a premature conclusion out of the first impression (who is also unlikely to read this comment, unfortunately), the unexpected thing is that the immune system wasn't get as much tired of multiple vaccinations as expected, not that there was no side-effects (which was not quite the researchers' main concern).

@arstechnica Seat belts were open to public for driver's safety back half a century ago. Now people are adding "features" that clearly harm driver's safety just for marketing benefits. Wtf.

@nixCraft While there's only one legitimate way to reboot on a command line (fittingly called "reboot"), there are a million different ways to shut down and none of them is as straightforward as "reboot."

@nixCraft CEOs these days would be so easy to come up with something to sue. All they need to do is to look back what they did (or would do), change the narrative, slap the defendant's name on it, and go for it. How convenient.

@arstechnica Y2K, but just a one-day version.

@nixCraft Before accepting advice from someone, consider if that person wants you to be better or dumb.

@nixCraft I think these days the central role of CEOs is trying their best to trick uninformed people (probably to get them to buy more stocks).
