Offlein , to technology in “We just lost 3TB of data on a SanDisk Extreme SSD” - The Verge

Fuck nuance!

Offlein , to technology in “We just lost 3TB of data on a SanDisk Extreme SSD” - The Verge

What the fuck are all these comments?

It’s an article about an unresolved and recurring problem with a popular drive that the ostensibly reputable manufacturer is trying to hide.

But 90% of the comments are people jerking themselves off about how smart they are for using RAID, which is irrelevant to the point of the article… But never miss an opportunity to pleasure yourself in public I guess?

Offlein , to noncredibledefense in "Unidentified"? More like "Don't ask, don't tell"

passed a law

Are you sure?

Offlein , to linux in Is there really no viable alternative for Photoshop on Linux?

Ha, well, yeah this pretty much tracks.

To paraphrase: “if we only pay attention to the most fundamental requirements and ignore any nuance and subtlety that’s added, the implementation is perfect. What’s the problem?”

Or: “Why care about the body of the post when there’s at title?”

If this comment isn’t the perfect distillation of the frustration people have with GIMP, I don’t know what is.

OP makes a very even-handed, consciencious treatise to gather more info about alternatives to GIMP based on the UX issues they themselves have been struggling with and which are commonly recognized throughout the community, with at least one example, while acknowledging how incredible and powerful an undertaking a piece of software GIMP definitely is, and…

… The same cookie cutter response on every single GIMP discussion since 1998: “IT IS VERY POWERFUL. WHAT FEATURE IS IT MISSING?”

Similar to GIMP itself: You’re not wrong you’re just… Not being anywhere near as helpful as you could be.

Offlein , to nostupidquestions in What does your 'home' instance really matter?

I don’t know, but I keep trying to comment on posts federated from other instances and half the time I get some obscure error and it fails, and it’s fucking irritating.

Offlein , to android in Google: An important step towards secure and interoperable messaging

God willing, Google can have six new apps out this year that each do a piece of what they had accomplished circa 2014.

Offlein , to showerthoughts in "A Boy Named Sue" is the greatest song about accepting your struggles, while also refusing to pass that trauma onto your children.

Holy fuck

… It doesn’t even make sense. If Sue ends up choosing to live life as a flamboyant, gay drag queen then why is Sue pissed off at the dad in the first place? 🤔

Offlein , to showerthoughts in Everything is easier said than done

Not thinking or even breathing.
