How should I approach it? I think this product can't deal with that much text yet?
Prior jobs always had the implicit expectation that I could be working a little harder, or clocking off early on a Friday was evil. Now, 40 hours a week can be done any time, and that flexibility is hugely liberating. I honestly think they get more out of me as well.
My use case is the MAME console archives, which are now full of copies of games from different localisations with 99% identical content. 7Z will compress them together and deduplicate, but breaks once the archive exceeds a few gigs.
These archives are already compressed (CHD format, which is 7Z + FLAC for ISOs), but it's deduplication that needs to happen on top of these already compressed files that I'm struggling with.
Sorry for the off-topic ask!
So fun. I miss it too.
If you had the reputation as a decent and polite poster, the sudden use of a vile cuss, judiciously applied, yielded far greater aggregate results than someone who used them all the time. At the very least, you would save it for someone who really did deserve it.
Perhaps the sanding off of the web’s edges is simply a product of its size. Maybe we should go back to Usenet.
Seriouspost: Agree with all that’s been said. Corporations have turned the web into an unpalatable wasteland. The prospect of someone finding out my name and job has taken all the joy out of calling someone a fuckhead online. I want to find it again.
I will start searching, but the good communities I’ve found have been invite only.
All other things being equal, if the government earns the money upfront instead of having to wait, tax rates can decrease slightly for the same amount of income. I live in a PAYG country, and given higher rates of tax-default and tax-stress in non-PAYG countries, I prefer PAYG.
