Semi related: I unintentionally compromised someone's account by registering their expired domain once.

They used the domain for some accounts and I've been getting emails for them due to using a catch-all filter. I contacted most of those service providers support teams, but some just told me to reset the password and login that way. Needless to say that disregard for privacy infuriated me a bit.

So yeah, if you ever register a domain for something, make sure all references to it are gone when you let it go.

That's sad.

If the negative for more speed is errors, then you're not faster.

Yes, because the hard thing about writing papers is the actual writing.

Jokes aside, of course I can just write whatever, but if I don't have any actual research to write about, all of those 4000 words I write a day are just filler that will get deleted after someone remotely intelligent reviews it.

Academia is not fun ๐Ÿ˜‚

Isn't that the case in Final Fantasy?

It's a lot of fun playing healers there imho. WoW was so hectic as a healer, especially in raids. FF seems so relaxed in comparison.

Good luck with the project.

I want to request a not-feature: One time I extracted an archive with an odd command that ended up dumping all its contents without directories straight into the base folder of the archive without a way to undo that. Please don't make that possible with your tool. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I had to manually clean up the directory.

I wonder what the initial idea behind the rook was.

Was it always a literal tower that just squashed you?

Agreed. It's really shit for new code, but if I'm writing glue code stuff or repetitive code it saves a lot of time spent on typing.

Well, no yummy Wienerschnitzel for you then!

I remember navigating for my dad as a kid using a physical street map. It was a great feeling tracking your position on the map and telling the driver what turn to make next.

But nothing beats the convenience of having a small rectangle that automatically calculates routes for you, especially when travelling alone.

Fwoosh.

...I wanted to make the same joke.
