It moves the value of register (a CPU memory cell) rbx to register rax. It’s not that important though.

Basically the comic shows that the CPU is happily chugging along, executing instructions when suddenly the keyboard sends an interrupt telling the CPU it must stop all work and listen to whatever it has to say.

That was how keyboards worked before USB (back when they used PS/2 or DIN connectors). With USB it’s the other way around: the device gets polled X times per second to check of it has any data to send.

Personally I’ve found the Canon laser MFPs to also play nice with Linux, with both scanning and printing working just fine.

I concur, if only because it’s also Dutch for “sausage”, which I find highly appropriate in this case.

“I also like to live dangerously.”

Or the flag of the Dutch province of South Holland:

Don’t forget to get your humors checked before deployment. We don’t want to have put the Iran invasion on hold due to a bad case of dysentery after all!

Definitely a dingleberry.

So is comparing a Microsoft bug to the highlight of the Apollo project and conveniently ignoring all the setbacks that both led up to and followed it.

I don’t mind bashing Microsoft where warranted, but this just feels like cherry picking from a long list of technical and procedural failures.

Apollo 1:

Fire, I smell fire. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Outlook malfunctioning is extremely tame compared to the issues the early space program ran in to. Somehow this meme really rubs me the wrong way.

You missed the joke. That was a quote from Deus Ex, the game depicted in the screenshot. 🙂

And the spacing. So weird and unnatural.

Why? It’s completely natural that people tend to distance themselves from anything that smells like decomposition and rot.

He and Michiel van den Bos basically wrote the soundtrack of my youth. Really bizarre to see Siren is struggling to land a full time job. Sad times indeed.

There is never a reason to not back in, and the end result is always a better parking job and an easier exit.

With the exception of diagonally placed parking spots next to a one-way lane, like the 30-60 degree ones here: https://www.dimensions.com/collection/parking-lot-layouts.

If the lane is wide enough you might be able to back up into a 60 degree one, but I’d hardly qualify it as a better parking job or easier exit.

With regular parking lots I fully agree that backing up is usually far superior.

If they wanted to live, they shouldn’t have signed up to kill people for the empire. Instead of following orders, they can refuse them.

Guess at least it’s good to see there isn’t any difference between Americans and Russians after all.

Linux being a kernel is hardly relevant though. The law lies the responsibility at the “operating system providers”, looking at the definition in the article that would be the developers/organisation behind the individual distributions. Politicians don’t care if each distro comes up with their own solution or gets built-in to the kernel.

But personally I think they all just give this law the finger, put a ‘not for use in California’ in their licenses and forget about this brainfart.

This indeed ☝🏻

It is the day for those who are ready to take up arms and go to war special military operation.

There, fixed that for you. Nothing screams ‘defending your fatherland’ like invading a neighbouring country because a fascist PoS needs to compensate for his tiny dick.

Good, get the fuck out of here and report to /c/dadjokes@lemmy.world on the double. 😋

I would definitely not recommend doing 45 on a German highway, or any other European highway for that matter, unless you’re in a traffic jam. 😋

Haha, don’t worry, no harm done. Maybe I was a bit too subtle in hindsight.

That’s Poe’s Law by the way.
