I’d say “sure!” Then amaze them with how good and quick I am by telling them an hour or two later to "try it now "
What you describe sounds more like a “competence” issue than a skill issue - can’t have the latter without first having the former.
Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

Quick! What crimes can we commit that require accurate time stamps to prove?
These puffs are even better than Little Caesars…
Sorry, but a cardboard box is better than LC.


That’s why they used it despite the fact it’s absolute bullshit - we’re nowhere near an actual revolution because we’re too distracted by shit like social media to get wound up enough.


The absurdity of a post wishing the admins of lemmy.world a good US holiday mildly amuses me.


Useful in what way?
N.B. You may wanna read the explanation for the name in my profile.


Have things changed that drastically in just five months to make it invalid? Since he just won this month, it seems to me that it’s more relevant, not less.


Yet another perfectly normal and rational MAGAt. I simply cannot understand why anyone thinks their collective are unfit to lead… 🙄


Well, it’s certainly an interesting method of self-promotion to those that bother caring enough to read that part. If it is a malware host, then those reading that far are also probably more conscious of the possibility of it being such so I’m not sure how effective it’d actually be.
Of course you being the one pointing it out could be considered sus…
🤪


No, but he’s cranked the instability volume up to 30 (of 10) since he re-entered the Oval Office, along with all the naked cash grabs no other president in recent memory would’ve ever gone near.


Even if he had changed, his record of poorly-informed decision making makes him a bad choice to be a leader.


While we can’t definitively say he’s a Nazi, he obviously at the very least makes poorly-informed decisions - definitely not good leadership material.


Trump’s made a million “good thing” promises.
This dude is obviously prone to making either bad, and/or - at the very least - poorly-informed choices. Not the qualities of a good leader.


But that means he’s not a smart person. That, along with the fact he is obviously prone to making poorly-informed decisions would give me serious pause about voting for him. Those are not the qualities of a good leader.


Wind that smells the same no matter which of his orifaces is the source.


Never mind all the dropped packets when they come across prey too good to pass up.


The sad thing is that the fact Republicans twisting anything to absurd lengths as “justification” for their evil bullshit has become so de rigueur that it’s no longer news each time they do it. My reaction each time something happens is “what else did you expect?”


I bet there’s still some FORTRAN in use at NASA/JPL.
Alternatively, I’m pretty sure key parts of Excel were written in x86 assembly. Dunno if that’s still true.


As a backup option, you can give Google Assistant or a Google Home the following commands: “at 10PM, sleep {lightname}” to dim, or “at 6AM, wake {lightname}” to brighten - both work over the space of a half-hour, and for some odd reason that’s not customizable.
They don’t want to know since they always want to be “the smartest people in the room.” They’re bullies because they’re too dumb to win any other way.
