If it's a public server (which the op would imply) then it's a problem because any idiot could join. Of course for some small server with friends it's fine. Though I have it off on mine anyway because people assume they don't have perms and will just write @everyone anyway

Allowing everyone to ping @everyone is asking for it though.

I work in QA, my colleague is exactly this guy. Breaks everything without even trying. Doesn't even have much of an IT background, but man he's good at breaking things.

All communist countries i know of went into authoritarianism along the way. There's this weird idea that communism can be implemented through creating an authoritarian state that then abolishes itself, turns out the people in power generally don't want to give it up, who would've thought.

Fwiw I disagree with a lot of assumptions in marxism and some of the conclusions and am overall more of a social capitalist but it's pretty true that there hasn't been a truly communist country yet. But I'm fairly sure the same could be said of true pure capitalism anyway.

Things have definitions. A scotsman is a scottish person, which is why no true scotsman is about claiming someone isn't scottish for their behavior instead of simply their nationality (ignore further issues of self identity etc here).

Communism similarly has a definition and just because you claim to be one doesn't mean you are one. Just like a country isn't a democracy just because it calls itself democratic.

Also, online logins should lock you out temporarily after a few failed attempts anyway, making brute force a complete non issue.

Also also, if you're going to try to brute force someones pw, you would just look up the requirements beforehand anyway.

I didn't use mine in class because it wasn't allowed and teachers would take it away if I did. Is that not a thing anymore? Or maybe just a german thing in the first place.

That being said, don't need a smartphone to play games in class. I was a god at snake on my graphing calculator...

Yep, I think i even got diagnosed with something similar (tho all i have is a memory of my mom mentioning "fine motor skill development disorder" once, which my brain couldve just made up), I do have autism and probably adhd which I'm still trying to get diagnosed. I looked into dyspraxia a while ago and a lot of it fit pretty well, I still tie my shoe laces in a very scuffed way for example and it took me until I was 12 or so to learn it. And there's nothing I hate more than fiddly stuff with my hands, so I've pretty much assumed I have some form of dyspraxia ever since. Though I had little issues learning to type and can do that pretty fast, and never had any general learning disability, which made me a bit doubtful. If it has high comorbidity with autism/adhd I probably do have it after all.

In any case I am glad I don't have to handwrite a lot anymore lol

I never recovered, and I don't really know how to write print. So i either write cursive at the speed of around one letter per second, produce unreadable chicken scratching, or write very ugly all caps print because that's simple enough and actually readable and faster than trying to produce legible cursive.

I also don't think I handwrite more than 100 words a year though so it's ok

I've always took that scene to be way more about not panicking and thus missing the obvious solution than any sort of boomer humor.

Coffee is bitter. There's shit coffee that's pretty much only bitter and nothing else, but any coffee will have bitterness.

Though I agree that "very very bitter" sounds like bad coffee.
