We're talking about a website that provides commentary on rap music. You can find things far more misogynistic and tasteless than this idiot's manifesto without even trying. How is talking about a mass murderer off limits while lyrics glorifying violence are the site's bread & butter?
Falsey objects mean "there's no data here" which is why they're falsey. Having an empty list of arguments to a command is the same as having no argument list.
There's nothing about midnight that makes sense for it to behave as Falase.
Dreamcast had a modem that was supported by very few games. There was an optional Ethernet adapter that's very rare and supported by even fewer.
The ethernet on the PS2 was optional until one of the later hardware releases. Very few games were released using it until after the PS3 had already shipped.
So we all know that everyone is on LinkedIn & every recruiter in the world is spamming us with invites but who the fuck actually uses it & gets any value out of it?
Google exists to advertise. Academics are woefully underpaid. Who wants to advertise to a bunch of broke intellectuals that are just going to ignore your ads anyways?
Yes, it's free but that doesn't mean it's painless. Going to SP2 and SP3 broke backwards compatibility with some drivers and software. It increased the RAM/CPU requirements for running the OS comfortably. They weren't just harmless stacks of collected bug fixes.
You can't talk about Windows XP like it's a single, fixed point in the release cycle. XP was released in 2001, giving you your 12 year number, but there were also major service packs released in 2002(SP1), 2004(SP2) & 2008(SP3). The last release of XP was only 5 years ago - more recently than OS X 10.4
Of the new software that still claims XP compatibility, much of it requires SP3.
Many people new to IRC feel the need to immediately take their questions to private message. Much of the same logic the blog makes about personal email apply to personal messages on IRC - don't do it unless you've got a really good reason to do so.
...but you can be sure that it's going to be posted every time MongoDB comes up. Somehow, people will vote it up as if it's still funny or adds something to the discussion.
...and enterprise software vendors (eg - Oracle) officially support their software running on RHEL. If you're paying 6 figures for a software license, the difference between APT and RPM fades quickly.
