You know how C makes it too easy to shoot yourself in the foot and should be avoided? English makes it too easy to make spelling mistakes and should be simplified.
If English had undefined semantics like C has undefined behaviour, communicating would be so much more fun
Source: "You look lovely <UNDEFINED SEMANTICS> today"
English -O0: "You look lovely today"

@Grunnen said in Big list of software that cannot handle spaces or accents in paths:
@ben_lubar That's also find-specific.
Now try to make this work in a whitespace-proof way:
$ rm `tar -tf archive.tar`
#!/usr/bin/env python3 import tarfile, os with tarfile.open('./file.tar', 'r') as f: for name in f.getnames(): os.unlink(name)

I just had to disable fast-boot, again, though other than that it seems to work fine?
Goddamnit, I should have known something was off when startup became much faster after upgrading. Thanks for reminding me
@steve_the_cynic said in Fall Creators Update, or how to fuck up the OS from start to finish:
Fast-boot is "semi-hibernate"
The thing that gets me is that the C drive isn't marked as "clean" or however it's done with a proper shutdown, so Linux won't touch the partition.

RE: I want to buy an android phone, too!
I have a Sony Xperia Z5 compact. It's pretty close to stock Android and overall it's pleasant to use. I can recommend Sony phones and will keep buying them, but mostly because they're the only big brand name that still makes flagship phones with < 5 inch screens

I hope he doesn't try to turn it into a FTA.

Re: Why are Linux debug builds of my C++ app so big?
Is that a linux debug build or are you just happy to see me?

By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, the Machines can't possibly get more energy out of us than they expend on feeding us and maintaining basic life support.
That's actually the first law. The "science" behind this explanation is so wrong it pisses me off
