Don’t worry, I can hold my breath until I’m done.

Are you saying that the data has no value just because you can’t touch it?

It’s a company that targets kids. Their prices are ludicrous

How does any of this make a difference?

Also for a company targeting kids there sure are a lot of whiny adults in these conversations.

Why is everyone pretending like they have a right to play Nintendo games? Nintendo says they want $X, you say their game isn’t worth $X, so you get something different instead. What’s the problem?

If you’re at a flea market and can’t reach an agreement on the price, do you just throw a tantrum at the vendor and take their stuff anyway?

What’s even more funny is that you’re downvoted into oblivion, while Iheartcheese @lemmy.world gets praise for the same stance.

I guess “Fuck around and find out” doesn’t apply here.

Don’t forget to mention bootlicking in your replies, lemmys.

To answer the original question, even though @RedWeasel@lemmy.world’s advice really is superior:

All commands that can be executed via your shell must live in your $PATH or their subdirectories. You could enumerate all files in there, filter by being executable, and run them with the --help argument.

You can then filter these commands by their exit code. If --help is a recognized flag, the exit code should be 0. Otherwise it should be something else. (Running every command blindly might be a bad idea though.)

No offence, but this is useless advice and exactly the reason why I wanted official data. “Usually”s and “Shoulds” don’t help. Especially for a completely different graphics card.

I would’ve liked some sort of official source, since other sites may have errors. (Of course the Nvidia page could contain errors, too, but I assumed they’d be more scrutinized than page number 328 which scrapes these details.)

When people get promoted to senior dev, they have lost all will to live. Their code reflects that.

It works well enough to keep the boss man off my back. I’ll go home now.

In my younger years I tried to make sense of the ‘God created humans’ thing by envisioning lots of aliens species with lots of gods, each catering for their own pets. Then I wondered if these gods would compete over who had the best pet, or would go to war with each other.

Only git wasn’t done in 10 days. It was very quickly able to track its own development, but it still took Linus half a year of thinking to be able to make git.

(No, sorry, I can’t find the interview that would validate that claim.)

After all, most delays can directly be traced to the QA department. Wise business decision!

• A bug in the code controlling the Therac-25 radiation therapy machine was directly responsible for at least five patient deaths in the 1980s when it administered excessive quantities of beta radiation.
• Radiation therapy planning software RTP/2 created by Multidata Systems International could incorrectly double the dosage of radiation depending on how the technician entered data into the machine. At least eight patients died, while another 20 received overdoses likely to cause significant health problems (November 2000).
• A Medtronic heart device was found vulnerable to remote attacks (2008-03).

Great attention to detail!

Protip: Add a minor inconvenience to every line, like a trailing space or slightly misaligned indentation. That way the next guy who opens the file will automatically correct it, taking the git blame.

Those corporations, they torture sentient and intelligent beings for money. If it was children, what would you do?

You talk as if we didn’t force them to sew our clothes and mine our gold and farm our crops.

porn family plan

not to be confused with the family porn plan.

I was afraid you’d say that. That’s stupid.

Do they give a reason for why that’s ‘necessary’?

(Also it should be const userToName = (user) => user.name;)

Thanks for doing what I was too lazy to do.
