“With your mustaches combined, I am Captain Wifebeater!”

Yes, language evolves haphazardly and often doesn’t make literal sense.

Alright, that’s my 2 cents. I’ll catch you on the flipside.

I’m sure there are great screenwriters who don’t know the first thing about cameras or projectors. They can still write good screenplays.

Nerdom is a spectrum. You’re not on either end of this one.

I’m so glad Duplo came out in 1969. I was worried I was getting too old to know what’s going on, but thankfully it seems I’ve never known what’s going on

EDIT: also, yeah, I have noidea what that comment was about either

Why do they have lead in them???

What’s a duplo block?

I’ve taught upper level comp sci at a STEM school and I think a majority of my students wouldn’t know what they were looking at in this picture.

People who’ve written doctoral theses on machine learning and and natural language processing have asked me for help building their gaming rig.

Not to say its universal, but the Venn Diagram of programmers and hardware nerds is far from a circle.

I’m not judging. Just observing that a lot of programmers I know wouldn’t understand what’s happening in this picture so maybe it isn’t really programmer humor.

You get no shade from me. My only beef is with programmers who act like they are experts in all things computer when they aren’t.

BTW, the issue in the picture is that the CPU cooler is attached to the wall of the case instead of the CPU. It shuts down because modern hardware will usually turn itself off when it overheats to mitigate the risk of permanent damage.

Then you’re a typical programmer, at least in my experience.

Most programmers I know wouldn’t understand what they’re looking at here.

This is sysadmin humor maybe?

Is this a shitpost?

The American state-oligarch apparatus is REALLY good at unionbusting, strikebreaking, and general anti-solidarity social engineering

I’ve never heard of F12 for Save As before. Will have to try it next time I’m forced to use Office

Save As

Why did they take Ctrl+Shift+S away???

That’s not a game worth winning. The reason its called “filthy rich” is that you can’t get rich without being dirty. And I don’t mean in the fun way.

Get enough to be comfortable, if you can. Then let others have a turn. Use your excess to help those who aren’t as fortunate. That is a real win.

Does your country have decent healthcare and need IT Admins?

A) its not universal because plenty of people don’t have coverage.

B) many of our insurance companies and “healthcare providers” are for profit and traded on the stock market, so our premiums are going to shareholders, with just enough paying for actual treatment to keep all of us from going full Luigi
