I heard even the dev team behind MS SourceSafe didn't use SourceSafe. I don't blame them.

As if there's a single lead developer behind MS Teams. There's probably like 100+ devs working on it in a dozen teams or more.

Yeah we know trump is awful, but in the end we could buy more stuff under trump than we can now and that's all we really care about so we voted for him anyway.

Remind me again what style of democracy the Weimar Republic had?

The last government spent 14 years trying to cut all the shit which in their opinion we didn't need. Spoiler: a lot of people have suffered a great deal because of those cuts. What exactly do you think is unneeded and can be cut further?

The thing about shrinking the state as a political ideology is that its logical conclusion is anarchy. We're currently at the stage where public services are failing, the assets have almost all been sold, millions of children are going hungry, and untreated sewage contaminates every river. At what point do you say maybe more cuts aren't actually making things better and we need to start investing instead?

There's no way you're driving 500,000km in an ICE without replacing stuff like spark plugs, clutch, alternator, filters, sensors.

You're going to miss a lot of the nuance in any complex show that way. A lot of storytelling is nonverbal and easily missed if you're distracted.

It's dead simple: Trump gave billionaires a huge tax cut when he was president. They are backing him because he will do it again if reelected. That's all they really care about.

It actually started decades ago with daytime soaps which were designed to still make sense to someone who was busy with housework. Now it just applies to way more shows.
