The pong clone, likely Tennis, is in one of OPs photos.

I still include Google results in my Searx.

We have I-Root and K-Root in Europe, these are certainly used…

I used to work in Grasshopper for parametric models but now I mostly reach for OpenSCAD.

All the devs I know use SO…

So the tankie idiots join the bigger pool of non-tankie idiots. How will we ever survive…

Really? I thought Ir. is only with a masters

One minute they’re all like “if I die it’s definitely not suicide” and the next they are changing their mind and going through with it…

Fuck that, I’m happy with my 32-hr workweek. Wouldn’t even want to do 40 again…

Dev in Europe with a comfortable life.

I was thinking the smartphone that I’m typing this from…

I encourage everyone to carry around an internet-connected audio-video listening device on their person at all times. Not only to have calls potentially tapped but also a microphone that can listen at any time and a non-removable battery.
