Man 2020 can go screw itself...argh.

I assume from the video title it is a GoPro MAX (360 degree camera

My understanding is that The Mandalorian is set 5 yrs after RotJ. So T-65s should definitely be around. Plus, unless I'm mistaken, the Mandalorian looks like he is going to visit Tatooine & Hoth (so now I'm hyped for this season). I wonder if we'll get to see a Wampa and/or Tauntaun.

How so? I've always found C# docs to be quite a bit better than the equivalent Sun/Oracle's Java docs. Language features like auto-property/fields, Lamda expressions, LINQ, etc have been sorely missed in Java (at least by me) until recently. Admittedly, the C# frameworks are a bit lacking compared to the Java ecosystem though. I will admit that I've had to get back into Java recently for my job and after starting to use IntelliJ, it's actually made Java mor enjoyable.

My programming started with BASIC on an IBM XT back in the 80s and various programming books, mainly just copying the programs as written then trying to modify them. This book in particular was pivotal for me as I loved the old Infocom text adventures of the time:

Write Your Own Adventure Programs For Your Microcomputer:

(It looks like these books were released for free by Usborne: https://usborne.com/browse-books/features/computer-and-coding-books/ ... what a nostalgia trip!)

In high-school I learned C and LISP for Autocad programming. I continued to learn about C (plus a little C++) and ASM thanks to John Carmack and DOOM/Quake. Wrote my own computer games (mainly RTS as the Command and Conquer series was big back then) ... nothing great but I thought they were cool.

Dabbled in Java a bit in college but ultimately shifted to C++ and C# after getting a consultancy job and that is what I continued with until recently. Now I'm back into Java and currently trying to catch up on all the front-end Javascript libraries now as well as tinkering with Perl, GO, and Objective-C.

Was not expecting that lmao...

OK good, so it isn't just me who sees the resemblance.

Out of curiosity, what is BLM's stance on all the black lives being lost to gun violence in places like Chicago? I see no mention of this serious issue on blacklivesmatter.com or blacklivesmatterchicago.com. Heck, it's not even listed on BLM Chicago's "10 Demands of BLMCHI": https://www.blacklivesmatterchicago.com/10-demands-of-blmchi/

With all of the media attention BLM is getting, funding through donations, and general momentum behind the movement, why not focus on things that might actually make a difference? Instead of pouring energy into removing statues, put that effort into PSAs, social media, etc about how terrible the gun violence is in some of these cities. Try and come up with ideas to address it. Invest those resources into getting to the root of the problems that face these communities. I guarantee statues and police brutality are probably pretty low on the list of *real* issues facing the black community. What about poverty/homelessness, lack of economic opportunity, gang activity/influence on youth, guns, drugs, the challenges of low income single-parent homes, etc. Those seem like more important issues for a well funded organization like BLM to be focused on.

Sitting or walking outside in 40C weather? Ehhh...ok I can understand not wearing one but try and keep a reasonable distance from other people. But inside a public building or a store when you KNOW that the expectation (and courteous thing to do) is that you wear a mask? WEAR IT. I don't get these people having a freak out and throwing things around or trashing the store. If you're really against wearing a mask, then freaking order your shit online and stay away from other people.

Hopefully that woman that walked over to another customer and coughed on them was charged.

wtf...that's terrible.

So THIS is how Twizzlers are made!

...and I just watched a 3 1/2min ad and enjoyed it...lol. Advertisers take note: make your adverts interesting and humorous and people might actually not mind them for a change.
