just gotta tee

I have unironically thought that code might be easier to read/write/understand in chinese.

Even Tucker Carlson. I’m Canadian, so I knew nothing about Carlson when I first saw some clips about him (like 8 years ago now). And in those clips he said some innocuous and fairly reasonable things.

oh look, it’s me with Prager U and their piece on Modern Art.

“These idiots are shitting in jars and putting balls in folmaldahyde and calling it art. That’s bullshit” You’re right!
“The true reason for art was for JEEEESSUUUUUSS” Fucking hell no.

It also comes with 32 ram.

Gigs? No.

…

Depends, apple & linux are toe to toe in the research world.

Are discord,signal,matrix,vs code,slack tools used exclusively in the research world, or just general user programs? Because I’m asking about the research world’s specific use of electron programs, not general use of electron programs by people with computers.

is that where you find a lot of electron programs?

I’m sure they can play a video on their computer.

Two things to bear in mind : just because you see a box that you can put text into, doesn’t mean that you have to fill it with text every time.

This person is asking you to demonstrate your knowledge of linux programs and curation of good programs, and trying to find a piece of software that is more obscure than what they found. If your response to that request/question is what you put as a reply, than you don’t have the adequate knowledge of the kinds of linux programs out there for media playback, and aren’t a good curator.

I do understand that you might want to encourage someone to be more in line with your views, but you’re not accomplishing that, you’re just showing you lack knowledge.

But don’t you DARE say on Lemmy that Linux isn’t ready for everyone to use…

If we’re talking about “everyone” as in “generic people , who spend either office job time on their computer, and about 1 hour of pleasure time doing non specific hobby stuff” due to adaptation of more wifi drivers etc (even though this is the point of the meme), since everyone’s doing all their shit on web interfaces anyway, yeah, it’s everyone ready.

My fucking father in law is on a chromebook , my wife has been on ubuntu mate for years. I’m running debian with minimal issues (stupid overheating).

in 2010

EDIT: FIFTEEN YEARS AGO

And Slackware is no clothes at all.

slackware is regular socks with those leather hold ups for men in the 1950s

Just ask Ian to start your computer when he goes on it

help me. I am stuck working in SDET and my job makes me do a cert every 6 months that’s “no code” and I need to transition to writing code.

I’ve been SDET since 2013, in c# and java. I am so fucking sick of selenium and getting manual testing dumped on my lap. I led a test team for a fortune 500 company as a contractor for a project. I can also program in the useless salesforce stack (apex, LWC).

I am the sole breadwinner for my household. I have no fucking idea what to do.

no, just me, gabe newell

The guy she tells you not to worry about VS you.

I’m in the meme. In the shitty paragraph.

I already did sudo apt update, not sure how to “backport”

BTW pulsar is going good so far thank you for your suggestion

Great work, but I just want to share the stupid comment of

“Looks like a cup of internet”

Sudo !!

(I like to think of it as “sudo bang bang!”)

I’d probably reject PRs into my FOSS projects, because the aim is to put the code out there for other people to see and do what they want with it. I’m expressing myself, and sharing what I made; I’m not setting up a tentpole project for others to pitch in and take over on, and start managing their contributions and collaborate with them.

If they want to take the code and do something with it, great. I don’t want to be involved in their endeavour.
