I can. It immediately stops itself while the ad rolls. I hit play from the navigation pane, it starts for maybe a second and stops again.

Once the ad stops, I can hit play and it all works normally.

IMO, the worst is pausing my media to play an ad in an unrelated application.

No matter what I try, I can’t get my music to play over the ad. I can silence the ad, go to my player, hit play to resume the music, and as soon as I flip back to the app playing the ad, the music pauses. So I have three choices: uninstall this shit, listen to silence until the ad is over, or listen to the ad.

Ironically, the entire premise of this article is steeped in a class war. It’s the rich trying to keep us focused on fighting eachother, rather than realizing that they’re fucking all of us in the ass.

I just want to be clear, this was like highschool cs classes. I took things a bit more seriously in college.

I never wrote messy code or illogical code, or any code that didn’t work. We were learning C++ in those days and if you know anything about C++, you can basically cram an entire program into a single line. You can also do some shorthand stuff for calculations and updates to variables… So while the class was instructed to use whitespace and comments and update variables like “var = var + #” I would do var += #… I wouldn’t comment it, mainly out of hubris.

I was pretty good at it but I was lazy as all hell with it.

I don’t code, at best I script. I’m a sysadmin, not a dev, so I play around in PowerShell mostly.

I just started to naturally do all of this. Not because I was taught to, but because I’ve written too many scripts that I later looked at, and thought, WTF is going on here… Who tf wrote this? (Of course it was me)…

So instead of confusing my future self, I started putting in comments. One at the beginning to describe what the file name can’t, and inline comments to step me through what’s happening, and more importantly why I did what I did.

The sheer number of comments can sometimes double the number of lines in my script, but later when I’m staring into the abyss of what I wrote, I appreciate me.

I loved doing this is school, just trying to mess up my teachers.

The only part of this I didn’t immediately realize is the wifi pineapples default IP range.

From now on, I’m going to set that as my clients default public IP range to troll anyone who knows.

Something about, having it being better than needing it?

IDK.

Oh, I almost never go far from a major metro. I can buy anything I forget, generally a replacement is less than 10 minutes by car at most, and usually less than 5 minutes walking.

There’s just something satisfying about the SO going “darn, I forgot my brush/comb/usb charger/phone cable/toothbrush/whatever” and within seconds I produce one for them.

I don’t usually travel by plane so checking bags isn’t usually a concern.

I don’t, but I’m sure other people are completely mystified.

I’m usually a night-before kind of packer. But I usually over-pack and over-prepare. I’ll bring everything from sunscreen, to rain coats, extras of every piece of apparel, even extra toiletries when I can.

I go from being totally unprepared two days prior, to basically ready to go on a month-long trip for a week vacation, in less than 4 hours.

Renewed scrutiny huh?

I want to know why the scrutiny needed to be renewed. Why did scrutiny diminish under these kinds of allegations?

I can see from the comments something about this being affected by him becoming president, and I’m left here thinking, shouldn’t the FBI/CIA/enforcement agencies, be able to operate without the president getting all up in their business?

That’s just sad, honestly. I won’t assume Trump is guilty until he is convicted of the crime, but there should be nothing that can prevent law enforcement from fully investigating what happened and providing justice for that girl.

The fact that this is a headline at all is pretty dark.

It seems to me that mental health issues, including, but not limited to, ADHD, are being taken more seriously.

Previously, the lazy, slacker, troublemaker kids were just beaten until they did what they were told.

Yeah, I’d say the threat of violence is a pretty good motivator to overcome the symptoms of mental conditions, and at least mask so hard that people can’t tell that you’re a complete fucking mess, right up until the day that your mental health degrades so much that you off yourself.

Thanks.

I believe you just described cognitive behavioral therapy.

Personally, steam reviews don’t make me want, or not want to play games. That being said, if I saw these reviews on a game that I had any interest in acquiring, I would consider it a selling point.

Normally I judge stuff for myself. I’ll watch reviews, and gameplay footage, etc before making any kind of purchasing decision. Steam reviews are usually checked, but they don’t weigh into the decision strongly enough for me to care.

With all that being said, intentionally bombing a games score en masse with either bot/alt/spam accounts just because you personally don’t like them, is seriously uncool.

I think we need a community just for this guys work. He’s brilliant.

Welcome to the internet.

Have a look around.

This has never been forbidden.

Hey, could you kindly shut the hell up?

I already feel old. You don’t have to rub salt in the wound.

Can we talk about the willenium now?
