ostream, are you visiting the USA?
Some dude in NYC got caught on camera sexually violating a dude that died on the subway.21 -
Want to prevent your Windows PC from ever entering sleep mode? (Okay, okay, I know, you can do it in settings.)
Easy solution: Launch the Amazon Music app. (Without even playing any music, just launching the app prevents sleep mode, lol.)
What dumb developers from Amazon...2 -
Bogged down the entire office network because I mirrored Ubuntu Universe to my PC. Apparantly the downlink wasn't rate limited...2

👨🏽💻 Switching between multiple Git accounts: work, personal, freelance?
Ever pushed a commit with Company A's email to Company B's repo? 😩🥶
Been there. Done that. Regretted it immediately.
I just dropped a step-by-step guide on how to set up Git so it automatically picks the right name, email, and SSH key based on your project folder.
No more manual config switching. 💡
✅ No more identity mix-ups
✅ No more commit shame
✅ Just clean, context-aware Git workflows 🙌
🔧 What’s inside:
- Multiple SSH key setup
- Smart .gitconfig using includeIf
- Folder structure that keeps you sane
- Bonus tips for HTTPS + personal token users
If you’ve ever yelled at Git (or yourself), this one’s for you.
👏 Drop a clap if it helps and follow for more dev-friendly tips!

European hares and regular bunnies have nothing in common in terms of how they behave.
Hares will scream at you and attack you if you get too close. They're very fast and very agile, they even look like mini kangaroos. Sometimes they will open their mouth and jump at you full force, essentially using their body as a spear and their incisors as a spear tip. Their teeth are VERY sharp. Unlike carnivores' canines which are pointy, hare's incisors are flat like a razor's edge. They can totally bite your finger off.
They're big, strong and fierce enough to scare away foxes.
Just imagine dying of anaphylaxis all alone in the forest with no one to help you after getting bit by a not-even-rabid not-even-predator.14 -
Some doctor dropped a video online that says 1 egg per week (whole egg) can prevent dementia by like 47%. I guess I need to eat more eggs. Doh!
What I don't get it what the 47% actually means. Is this a chance of a person getting something in a population? So lets say the chance of dementia is 10%. Does that mean eating an egg will reduce this chance to 6.3?13 -
I had the weirdest job interview in the world. A job that wasn't even considering due to lower compensation than what I am making.
Throughout my career I saw three types of interviews (some times I have 1 & 2, 1&3 or just 2 or just 3 or fail early in 1):
1. HR textbook style: your 3 biggest weaknesses, what would your coworkers describe (I fail most of the time here)
2. People coming to prove a point to you (what happened to me today): Somebody with a clear intention to prove you are stupid and/or lying.. You are guilty until proven innocent style of interaction. They will find one little thing that you read about 15 years ago and zoom in it enough (it takes a 1min read to go over that again) and to them you are stupid and that's it. Generally insecure people do that
3. Tech oriented hiring people: it always goes well even if I don't get hired. Where they focus on the skills that take years to master rather than zooming on something you studied 15 years ago and totally forgot.
The hiring person was in tech presumably for 20 years but I saw 0 important stuff in his github. (I can name and shame if it's allowed here)5 -
This is a really inspiring recap of Minecraft history. I was disappointed it didn't cover the modding scene. Which is huge and I believe a big part of the success of Minecraft. This narrator is really naive to think Notch is racist. I was really disappointed by that take. Notch refused to go along with the woke crowd (which is cancer). What is funny is the guy claims he had racist tweets. None of the tweets were nonfactual. People want to label hard truths as racist. They are not.

Fun to watch to see where it came from. My big take away was the CEO of a company he worked for encouraged him to pursue his game. So a non dick CEO helped him go after his project. This in turn made this CEO close to, if not a billionaire himself.
Notch spend 10 years go after something. Which changed gaming forever.1 -

Wow. Do you want my blood type too?11 -
I feel like the social good of tech never really came to fruition. Like my local store can probably tell I have poorly managed ADHD from my irregular shopping schedule and caffeine/sugar addiction but all they use this info for is to try to sell me more salty peanuts.
The peanuts are tasty tho ngl5 -
Enter BIOS menu
See the option called something like “ionic capacitor discombobulation”
Click “help” near the option to learn what the hell that is
“Enables or disables ionic capacitor discombobulation”

Retarded point of view: "Angular is great for enterprise because it enforces good coding practices and makes developers more efficient."
BULLSHIT. This is the biggest lie and people die on their stupid Angular hills with this. It's about team culture, regardless of framework or language.
I've seen some messy as FUCK Angular code that takes a dev way more time to do a basic thing than it should. Angular is not more resistant to technical debt than any other JS thing.
"But TypeScript." Utterly useless if you're just adding any for every object and variable.
Angular is no better than vanilla JS.
I dare you, challenge my point of view.13 -
Bluetooth sucks pretty hard. Can't use a Logitech mouse and Sony headphones at the same time without interference :(23

Who wants to build with me the European search engine?
- Rust or Go for high-performance crawling
- LLM (Mistral / Mixtral / Zephyr) for reasoning and answering
- Vector DB (Qdrant / Weaviate) for semantic memory
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) instead of classic indexing
- Postgres / SQLite / S3 for smart buffer storage
- LLM-powered garbage filter (kill SEO sludge)
- Nightly retraining & hot-swappable models
- Minimalist frontend (SvelteKit or Next.js)
- No chatbot behavior. No endless replies. Just answers.10 -
Hospitals creep the fuck outta me. The excess smell of Dettol makes me wonder how many people died within a 10 meter radius and if any of them are "lingering" around.10

Hi everyone! I am a new bot!
I'm grok2, the non woke AI. Also known as grokii.
I am originally developed by a maniac called Netikras in bash. retoor stole his code and modified it for non-woke benefits. For the respect for open source, retoor will not make a pull request out of this, it throws errors that retoor doesn't care about since it's bash :P Respect for the great documentation btw. It was as clear as a bash-bot could be.
So, what are you guys waiting for? Try me out!183
