    GIMP doesn’t mean anything though (besides for GNU Image Manipulation Program)? Why are you bringing it up?

      Yeah, GIMP is great, but its mask feature is just standout. Google “gimp mask” for more information.

                How do you come to that conclusion? He was a guy in a full on latex-BDSM suit on a leash, that they kept in a box in the basement.

                We don’t learn much about his character or mental ability in the movie. It is much more likely, that he was called a gimp in the BDSM sense, that is also mentioned in the Wiktionary entry that was linked here.

                  pretty sure that use of the term originated with that exact movie scene.

                  There’s also a point where the gimp tries to speak and it’s pretty clear he has at least a speech impediment if not a mental disability.

            It’s less typing but technically it’s one more request to the server which you have to wait for to fail before the correct request can be fucked, so it might be faster to do it the correct way from the get-go. Especially if you’ve done it before and you can just Ctrl+R and find it in the history, or you have a git alias (e.g. git phead)

              No, your local Git knows the branch isn’t tracking any upstream branch, so it never makes a request to the server.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.

  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

 

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don’t understand or can’t verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community – even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don’t remove France.
