obligatory PLASMA RULES GNOME DROOLS

i’m a linux user do i look like i have sex

FFmpeg has FFV1 which is lossless

with the most recent call last, but the actual exception at the top

programmerhumor lemmy continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of memes that are only tangentially related to technology and have dick all to do with programming posted by non programmers who want to hang out with the hackermen

Type reboot into an SSH session and play everyone’s favorite game show…

WILL IT ACTUALLY DO IIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

Neither was X11 so it’s in good company

Why?

maybe they’ll take inspiration from their avatar and next learn a programming language that’s actually good

you should learn Rust. the type system is so comprehensive that half the time you can guess what a function does (or at the very least what you’re supposed to pass to it) without a single line of human written documentation.

if you (by which i mean you the reader, not OP) use linux for no other reason than to be able to tell people you use linux, kindly get the fuck out of my community

They’re also similar in that if you tell them you use Linux but like Canonical and/or Lennart Poettering they’ll yell at you and call you all sorts of names but if you tell them you’re a Windows user they’ll leave you alone

Every couple of years I think to myself “Ubuntu can’t be that bad, can it? I must be misremembering. Surely it’s just some combination of my memory exaggerating how terrible it was and my lackluster Linux skills, which have since improved. Everybody still recommends it as a beginner distro, right? Why’d I stop using it?”

And then I download Ubuntu.

And then I remember.

Microsoft realized they were losing basically the entire software development market to Linux so they started adding features like a pretty alright terminal emulator and a shell that almost looks POSIXcompliant if you squint (and don’t pass any flags to its built in commands) and trying ineffectually to hide the fact that they were basically on their knees saying BLEASE COME BACK WE NEED YOU

I see Programmer humor lemmy is continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of non programmers posting vaguely technology related memes that have dick all to do with programming

not OP but I’m here to confirm the Android version of Krita really sucks ass, especially on phones. It’s a direct port of the desktop version, windows and all, and if a window is too big to fit on the screen, tough luck. switch back to portrait and hope it works there. Krita is also very CPU bound and on my Pixel 7a there is almost a full second of lag between my stylus on the screen and the line I drew actually showing up.

I wouldn’t either had he stopped there (and perhaps been a shade less overtly hostile to someone giving their work away for free). Instead he followed it up with

“Maximum amount of freedom to potential users” is somehow mass-surveilance of every computer user thanks to the BSD license. Thanks for your contribution to “freedom.”

To an extent I agree with this, but “Once upon a time, this guy licensed his code under BSD instead of GPL and basically it’s his fault the Intel Management Engine exists” is definitely a step too far

Did not bother reading the first sentence is more like it

like the S in IoT which stands for security.
