This is an ”article” about a Reddit post from 4 years ago posted on r/timetravelercaught where the comments point out the same thing. The crazy thing is that someone wrote an article about it.

It is, this infographic is wrong. Or I guess technically some other standard could define it like the infographic, but the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard defines it as a secondary hierarchy specifically for user data.

Specifically, these are for being able to pass in the tubing when your computer overheats playing Counter-Strike 1.5 so you pull apart your 50cc moped so you can bolt the moped radiator to the side of the case since it doesn’t fit inside. At least that’s the only use I’ve actually seen in practice.

Given that said game is also for sale on the Humble Store, I find those statements dubious at best.

The name originally comes from Finland and the Winter War, where they were used against soviet tanks.

”C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if the choice of C were to do nothing but keep the C++ programmers out, that in itself would be a huge reason to use C.”

Pretty much, yeah. The ”Finns Party” have marketed themselves as taking care of the average Finn, that is the workers, and this is the result. The national coalition on the other hand has never been ashamed of working as the political wing of big capital.

Maybe not outright outlaw, but they will be taxed out of existence. Effectively you will have the choice of paying 10k in pollution taxes or 5k for the functional brake pedal subscription, and this shit will become norm.

These numbers are from analyzing over 7000 movies, the title at the top is probably the highest rated title in each bucket.

I don’t think that’s a fair assessment. Comparing to a traditional loop, it has marginally better thermals, one less set of tubing (i.e. places for leaks to spring up), and a smaller form factor. Wether or not those are “worth the money” is completely subjective. As someone interested in custom SSF builds I thought it was interesting.
