Damn, that’s sad. VIM has been a part of my software development career since the beginning. Thank you Bram Moolenaar for your invention.

How many of you have received these calls? I got a ton of them along with my husband and siblings.

As others have already stated, the job market is fine, the stocks are fine, but the ability to afford living day to day is worse than I have ever remembered. Here in my cheaper state here are some random prices:

  • A bag of Doritos is over $7.
  • Beef shortage makes ground beef for a family of 4 $14
  • Gas prices are over $3.70
  • My grocery bill increased by nearly 50% overall and we are buying less on top of that
  • Car prices are through the roof, making it impossible for people like me to change cars (I’m hearing they are going to drop again soon)
  • Rent prices are soaring to the point where it isn’t sustainable
  • Interest rate keeps rising

Exactly. The social aspect is why people do this in the first place.

I’m so tired of the constant attacks by these losers. Someone needs to shut them down.

While true, unfortunately the latest government spy bill is bipartisan. It will make end to end encryption for texts and chat illegal, using drug enforcement as the excuse.

Basically, a website can block you or treat you suspiciously based on whether or not this “feature” says that your computer or browser is approved and unmodified.

This can become a problem as more sites adopt this. You can be using a 2 year old device and suddenly your bank stops working because your device no longer shows up as approved. It can be used to artificially enforce obsolescence. The fix would be to buy a new device.

You could be using Linux or a 3rd party browser and many websites will become unavailable to you because they can never show up as approved and unmodified. It basically breaks the open web.

I never had that problem. In general, I don’t worry about sharting. I would see a doctor about it if I were you.

I would never buy from them anymore. I am fairly certain that explains why I could not access my games from years ago.

You Ex on X…. sounds like a drug thing

It’s a fox site. The comments on those sites were always akin to sewer water. Also the ads are cringe inducing.

Yes, we definitely need vital resources like this to be state owned.
