Image Transcription: Screenshot


[The screenshot is from a GitHub commit summary. It is zoomed in to show just the tab headers for the "Checks" tab and the "Files changed" tab. The "Checks" tab has a number 1 next to it, and the "Files changed" tab has an infinity sign next to it.]

Theoretically they might be able to, but it would be a very difficult case fought against a massive corporation. I doubt they'd consider it worth the trouble and legal fees, especially given there's no guarantee of winning.

Ah, I was wondering why YouTube was taking so long to load recently. I thought it was just because their code was shit, and it turns out I was right, but not in the way I thought.

Image Transcription: Code


[Transcriber's note: the first line in the following transcription is incorrect. After the equals, there should be eight instances of the word "Option", each succeeded by a less-than symbol, then two brackets, like (), before the first greater-tha symbol. However, if you type a less-than symbol on Lemmy, it seems to strip that symbol and whatever word comes next out of the source when you save the comment.]

type Wtf = Option>>>>>>>;
let two = Some(Some(Some(Some(Some(Some(None))))));
let three = Some(Some(Some(Some(Some(None)))));
let six = Some(Some(None));
unsafe {
    assert_eq!(
        std::mem::transmute::(two) * std::mem::transmute::(three)
        std::mem::transmute::(six)
    );
}

Image Transcription: Meme


[The meme shows two fanart images of the character Sayori, from "Doki Doki Literature Club", with text to the right of each image.]


[In the first image, Sayori is wearing sunglasses and scowling, with her hand up in a blocking gesture. The text reads:]

Anti-Cheat


[In the second image, Sayori has her head up high, looking pleased, with a finger pointed to the right, where the text reads:]

Kernel Level Surveillance

Thanks! Not sure if there's been other people doing any or not, but for my part I just do them when I find the time, which unfortunately isn't all that often.

[A photograph of a road signpost in front of a metal fence with a low, long building in the distance. The post has two signs on it. At the top is an octagonal sign, filled red with a white outline, reading "STOP". Beneath it is a rectangular sign with an arrow pointing up to the stop sign, and text reading "THIS IS A STOP SIGN".]

[Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the "Despicable Me" franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling. Behind him is a flipchart with text reading:]

And the best part about using Linux: No viruses!


[Still presenting, Gru has his hand in a C shape and his head down as he peers at the gap between his fingers. The text now reads:]

Look at this, a website downloaded a malicious .exe on my machine.


[Gru now has his hands pointing down, fingers splayed, still presenting. The text now reads:]

*Double Click*

See? Nothing happe...


[Gru looks back to the flipchart in a double-take, his eyes round and wide and his mouth downturned. The text still reads:]

*Wine is launching*

[The Wine logo: a slightly tipped wine glass with red wine sloshing inside it.]

STOP USING CSS

* HTML WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN CLASSES
* YEARS OF MARKUP yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for styling beyond \
* Wanted to center content for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called ""
* "Yes please align that content exactly 32.89% left. Please align 59.0px down"
    - Statements dreams up by the utterly deranged

LOOK at what FRONT-END Devs  have been demanding your Respect for all this time.
(This is REAL CSS. done by REAL Devs)

[Three screenshots of CSS code, each one marked with a number of red question marks. The first screenshot has five question marks and reads as follows:]

h1 {
        font-size: .75em;
        position: absolute;
        bottom: 20px;
        width: 94%;
        left: 2%;
}

[The second screenshot has eight question marks and reads as follows:]

*{
    font-size: 30px;

}
    q::before {
  content: "«";
  color: blue;
]

q::after {
  content: "»";
  color: red;
}

[The third screenshot has sixteen question marks and reads as follows:]

#header ul a:focus, #header ul a:active,
#header ul a:hover {
    background-color: #5A5A5A;
    outline-color: -moz-use-text-color:
    outline-style: none;
    outline-width: medium;
}

[The screenshots end.]

"Hello center that div please"

They have played us for absolute fools
