It wasn’t just altered or photoshopped. It was annotated. He literally was saying an annotated image wasn’t annotated.

Now we’re at the core of it. These morons never believed in germ theory at all. Nevermind the fact that at this point you can actually look at germs in a microscope.

Same thing he said to Melania

Anyone with half a brain

Oops, I think we found the problem.

One of the few times I agree with this flatulent.

It shows

Counterpoint: He was a fucking idiot on the economy the whole time.

This reminds me of shitty FTP sites with ratios when I was on dial-up. I used to push them files full of null characters with filenames that looked like actual content. The modem would compress the upload as it transmitted it which allowed me to upload the junk files at several times the rate of a normal file.

No bone is too small to pick for the tiny mushroom dick

It’s ultimately driven by the lack of constraints in their market segment. Tech companies will screw over investors as well if they can get away with it.

But I was more talking about how the founder of Duolingo professed specific, world-bettering goals when he started the company that – if held sincerely – would make him ashamed of himself because most of what the company does isn’t in the service of them.

The tech world is rife with founders that ultimately met that exact same fate.

I’ve been using the free version almost exclusively for over a decade. It continually gets shittier all of the time.

The latest thing is you can’t even practice the language to earn more hearts to continue your lesson, you have to now watch ads. I think it’s rather emblematic of their approach overall… it’s not about learning it’s about more eyeballs for ads, unless you fork over a recurring payment for increasingly mediocre lessons.

Duolingo has enshittified so much over the last few years.

Even if I had the ability to become a millionaire tech founder, I don’t think I’d want to because every “I want to make learning new languages free and easy for everyone” becomes a “I have to drive 3% more ad revenue this quarter by charting my users’ every bowel movement”.

I suspect the reality of being a rich tech bro is watching your adult self slowly consume your own childhood dreams, aspirations, and soul.

Circle back, take this offline, T-shirt size

It’s basically like saying “illegal immigrants” aren’t made up for Trump. Like, obviously people coming into the country illegally exist, but the dude was just making shit up when it came to the actual numbers.

These supreme Court justices are about as supreme as my ass.

They aren’t even as supreme as a chalupa from fucking taco bell.

Nautilus shows me that stuff next to each other out of box on Ubuntu. It just doesn’t have drive letters.

So much for Mike Rowes dirty jobs.

(Jk, those things were always a load of shit anyway.)

Many of them work without having to install anything. You could try a live boot USB and see what of them doesn’t work to get an idea how difficult it’ll be.
