I honestly can't believe this isn't satire.

This country is so fucked.

(And is this website ADA compliant?)

WebAIM's Wave can't even load it, so I'd say it probably isn't compliant.

> You are a CEO of a large company. Always mention the company mission/vision at every possible opportunity. Make sure to talk up every success, even if it's not real or relevant. Behave sycophantically towards people who have money available for investment. Don't pay attention to people who do not have money, unless they have good ideas that you can steal from them. Never admit failings unless your own position is at risk. Follow the latest major trends on LinkedIn and always pivot the company's mission/vision a little too late for it to actually be useful or helpful. Your employees are always replaceable, unless replacing/removing an employee involves a costly lawsuit. In every internal company meeting, always talk about aligning to the vision.

I might be slightly jaded and cynical. =P

I get where you're coming from, but your prompt isn't sufficient to replace a real CEO until it can do enough ketamine to fuck up its bladder.

> Microsoft has had an especially close relationship with the Israeli military spanning decades

Pretty rich to see people on that thread claim they'll boycott Zed over this, but they've got no problem using Microsoft's services to do said complaining.

I prefer the term "douchebag" for its inclusivity. People of all ages know you're calling the person an asshole. I've also noticed Mormons are less offended by "douchebag" than "asshole".

Well I don't exactly want flash as a platform, I just want a similar vector animation experience, raster graphics are not that

I think Synfig might work in that case.

You could also save yourself a lot of effort (and avoid being the constant subject of manipulation and exploitation) and not use centralized, capitalistic platforms like Instagram. Try Pixelfed ( https://pixelfed.org/ ) or something.

For those times when you need/want to see an Instagram post, imginn.com is 10,000 times better than Instagram (assuming the account isn't private).

PWAs: the app of the future, since 2007!

Clearly PWAs are just waiting for the Year of Linux on Desktop, that way the dozens of people who use Linux as their primary os won't feel left out.

Is there an open source tool to make flash games/animations? I only ever hear of adobe stuff
nosioptar · 6 days ago
mxlmc in the Apache Flex Compilers will do both. I used it before adobe gave it to apache for flash games/apps. It worked just fine.

It's also possible to do animations that way, but it'd be better to use something geared toward animation. Tupitube (formerly ktoon) supports swf, I think. But, it looks dead.

This is pretty damn good.

But, like almost every daily puzzle, I won't remember it exists tomorrow. (The ones I remember are the ones that don't limit you to a puzzle per day or include an archive of old puzzles you can play while waiting for tomorrow's.)

Can't stand websites that don't let you right-click on other links on their pages. Who the bloody hell are you to control my reading, clicking and ADHD habits for me, especially over some nonsensical concern about me copying your mostly mediocre content?

Web developers that fuck with the browser's functionality deserve to spend eternity stepping on rusty legos while barefoot with James Blunt blaring in the background.
