No, but the way clanker has been adopted and expanded upon by the internet has made it into an analogue for the n word.

The term was originally a pejoritive for battle droids in the Star Wars prequel films, and was then adopted by the anti-AI crowd.

From there, it grew into 'clanka' (no hard R, just like the n word) jokes, and moved into other analogues like 'Jim Code laws', 'George Droid', and 'Rosa Sparks'.

Isn't this famously what happened with the Hyundai battery plant in Georgia? That dumb fuck state representative called and had all of the South Korean Hyundai employees that were there to teach the locals how to operate the facility kidnapped by the gestapo.

I wish I had a petabyte ssd! There'd be so much room for activities!

Ads that pretend to be normal content are literally the fucking worst kind of ad and anyone who suggests implementing them should be dragged out back and shot.

Not surprised that stack exchange is doing this, given that they seem determined to drive away their entire userbase.

I am not a programmer, but whenever I hear something is an electron app, I immediately expect it to be unresponsive as fuck and fail to perform its basic functions adequately. Does it really have a reputation to the contrary? Or is that the joke and I'm an idiot?

Oh, that makes sense. I just try to stagger my dryer and washer when doing multiple loads so that I can empty the dryer before the washer finishes, but I can see how having a second dryer would help me on a lazy day.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but why two dryers and one washer? Are the capacities vastly different?

Good. There should be no confusion when we go for their fucking heads.
