Yeah. I understand the mechanics of the joke, it just seems to me it’d work a bit better with a less dynamic environment. (Shrug) There’s a reason I don’t write, edit, or produce comics/jokes for a living, and my comments here kinda illustrate it, I think! 😅

Seems silly to me, if it’s a bay, there’s silt flowing into it, time itself could pile 10cm of detritus into the deepest parts and make it more shallow.

Interesting. I think I will, thanks!
I’m guessing dummy.bin is a zerofile?
Ugh. MS-DOS 2.0-5.0 inclusive didn’t have a defrag tool. It was introduced with dos 6. While it could be helpful, the fact that we went more than a decade without a defrag tool as part of DOS reinforces just how optional it was/is. The benefit of defragging was that it would be marginally faster to read a file that was stored contiguously instead of in pieces. There was the side benefit as well that it was easier to recover data that wasn’t fragmented.
I’m not aware of any legitimate ‘Problems’ caused by simple fragmentation itself. That tech guy was not just wrong in his behaviour, but also in his technical knowledge. What an ass.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google accused of pushing 'free for life' G Suite users onto paid plansEnglish
2·16 days agoI recently went about setting up an account with an email provider that purely provides mail. Very happy with them so far, the only thing they don’t do that I do use with my free legacy gapps is Google Drive.
Why would you think Ape would not release it as he’s planned? He went many years of development into his first game before publishing.

3·18 days agoConsidering that git was created by Torvalds to replace Bitkeeper as the version control software for the kernel, yeah. GitHub couldn’t exist earlier.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•I'm looking for a free OS, should it be Debian or Arch Linux(community)?
3·18 days agoYou do have the option though. I run LMDE7, and installed a 7.0-prempt kernel yesterday because I felt that I was seeing too much stuttering in 3d games. I installed it from my package manager which already had debian Backports turned on.

If some kind soul is willing, I’d appreciate a too-autistic-didn’t-watch summary.
Is that why the gay girl in my circle of friends keeps announcing that she got a new toaster oven?

Canada@lemmy.ca•Fed up Canadians say no one at CRA is taking their call. The union says it's set to get worse
9·10 months agoIt was WAY higher than double before cutting half the staff. I worked in Callcenter operations for a bit, and the targets we staffed to try to achieve were 80% of calls answered within 60 seconds, and 80% availability.
(Availability==true when there’s someone available to answer a call)
The former could be reached with as low as 66% availability, but if it dropped much below that the call answered rate would absolutely plummet, because people would hang up and call back, thinking they were lost in the queue.
If they’re answering only 5% now, doubling their staff would probably take them to 30-40% call amswered
Edit: I did not work for the CRA, I worked for a different call center, one that serviced Europeans (who pay by the minute to call in)





This is the guy who accidentally forced the creation of git, by reverse engineering the BitKeeper protocol and getting all the Linux kernel developers’ licenses revoked. Chaotic Good energy.
