Why?

28 pounds = 12.7kg, for those wondering.

If your individuality is all tied up in your physical appearance, try to develop your mind a bit.

Kind of condescending, no? Also, they’re kids. Teenagers especially are all about their phsyical appearance… and their minds are developing.

It is kinda annoying when you’re in a rush and need something right there on the spot, but it says it has to update before you can use it, and then you’re there for what feels like an eternity.

Agreed, but other cloud providers exist and it would be good if there was stronger competition in this space. But going back to self hosting is a huge step back and I think if a CTO said they were going to move from the cloud back to a self hosted solution, pretty much everyone would hate it.

Bit of an over-reaction to one incident. I’d be willing to bet the uptime, reliability and scalability of AWS is significantly better than what the vast majority of in-house solutions could do. It’s absolutely not worth going back.

Millions of customers using AWS also weren’t affected - the company I work for certainly wasn’t, although some of our tools like Jira were.

I don’t care enough to warrant spending any little free time I have fucking about installing a different OS and with all the challenges it would come with.

From a UK perspective:

The pensioners would never vote for party that would introduce something like this. They HATE the idea of younger generations getting “free money”. Honestly they’re the real problem. But they’re the demographic that vote the most and have a huge sway.

Just don’t point out to them how their triple locked pensions are probably the biggest financial cost to our [UK] country…

Technology has been replacing manual labour for a long time, this is hardly surprising. Some jobs will be created though as the robots need monitoring and maintenance.

Man’s so high he can’t even narrow down his own age range

I like the “maybemaybemaybe” sub and also just seeing more diverse takes on current topics. Plus the formula1 subreddit has way more discussion.

My new account has insufficient karma to post (another petty rule)

This drives me up the wall, especially when they don’t even tell you how much you need. I get why they do it, but it just promotes shit-posting in other subreddits for the sole purpose of being able to post in another subreddit.

That doesn’t mean people should be executed because they’re suspected of something, their guilt needs to be proved first.

Lol seriously. It’s things like this that put me off this site. It’s unhinged. If any other state executed people in the streets without due process these same people would be up in arms, calling them fascists. But Hamas do it and it’s all good. I’m convinced some users here see any criticism of Hamas as meaning that it’s a show of support for the IDF/Israel.

Do you approve of executing accused people without actually proving that they’re guilty of being accused of first?

No, and it’s literally not once ever been mentioned between my wife and I in regards to our son. It’s an absolute non-issue and it’s never been something that’s been mentioned with any previous partners.

I think it’s an introvert vs extrovert thing. For introverts, silence is the default and lots of talking is draining. For extroverts, silence is unnerving and makes them uncomfortable, and conversations energises them.

Running. I’m slow and can’t run particularly far for how long I’ve been doing it.

And you had to tell us about it thrice!
