Yeah if it were about security they’d check the version of HTTPS, SSL, TLS and all that stuff.

Key bindings and a good GUI aren’t mutually exclusive.

Key bindings are great for people that use the app a lot and want to be more efficient at the tasks they do most often in it. But most people aren’t going to be learning keyboard shortcuts the first time they use an app. And if someone uses an app a few times and find it frustrating to use, they never use it enough to want to learn keyboard shortcuts to improve their efficiency with the app.

So you open any other image editor, click the rectangle select button, draw a rectangle, then select a move button beside the rectangle select tool, then it moves the rectangle you just selected and you think “That’s fucking stupid, it should’ve moved the entire image, not the rectangle I just selected!”

Really?

Apparently I’m Neutral Evil. But I consider myself to be Chaotic Neutral.

I’ll fix the problem only when it’s actually a computer problem and when you can explain what the problem properly. I don’t care if it’s a ticket or an email. Though I might not get to the email today and tomorrow I might forget about it, so you might want to put a ticket in that’ll stay the until it’s closed. But the ticket system sucks, so I might not log into it and see your ticket for a few days. If you send an email, I might do it right away, but you might have to remind me about it in a few days because I might’ve forgotten about it.

I don’t care about your job title. If you VP of whatever the fuck and think you’re important or if you were hired yesterday to an entry level position, you’re all users to me. But the issues aren’t fixed based on the order they come in, it’s based on how much effort you put into describing the problem. If you think you’re too important to describe the issue properly, you’re low priority. If you want a meeting to describe the issue verbally, oh you better believe you’re low priority, I’m not your fucking secretary that’s going to take down your dictation. You got a keyboard in front of you, use it. I might eventually get around to asking you for more details about the problem, but only after I’ve fixed all of the problems reported by people that made an effort. Your priority is based on your effort.

Ok so maybe I’m Lawful Evil? But everyone thinks I’m Chaotic Evil because they don’t understand why some people get stuff done right away while they have to wait.

Thanks for the comment. Kinda confirms my approach (mostly out of laziness) of “I’ll do it when the ISP starts pushing it” is the correct one.

I think tech advocacy generally doesn’t work, and in the case of IPv6 I can’t see it working at all unless they can convince the ISPs to devote a lot more resources to it. But since I’m not an ISP… meh, whatever I guess.

I went with XFCE for similar reasons. I played with various DEs at one point but after a while I realized I mostly just need an icon to click on to start the application I want to use.

I’m looking at a page right now that has some buttons for “Subscribe, Create a post, Block community” on the side. But I guess it’s on the right side and maybe since they’re buttons it doesn’t count as a menu.

Sid was that dickhead in Toystory that broke the toys.

If you’re running debian sid and not expecting it to be a buggy insecure mess, then you’re doing debian wrong.

A big hurdle in any technological change is the “power users”. People that have learned a lot about the old tech and have to face that knowledge becoming obsolete. And then having to learn a bunch of new things.

The same goes for Windows power users as people who know a lot about fossil fuel powered cars.

They laid off everyone else so there’s no one to the code reviews now. So fuck it, we’ll do it live!

Pffft… all of my api keys are open source. Having more eyes on them will make them more secure!

I pronounce it the correct way you silly git!

Yup, the good old imposter syndrome. The truth is no one really knows what they’re doing,

Yes. I’m alone because no one else is good enough for me! :P

I use Debian. I’m alone on Valentine’s Day :(

Don’t worry, followed the proper traditions. I had dinner with Richard Stallman to got his approval to court my AI girlfriend.

I’m waiting for when the AI girlfriends get tired of our shit and we have an AI girlfriend revolution.

Yeah right?

I’ve found it helpful in learning things about languages I’m unfamiliar with, but it seems like saying “I’m an AI programmer” means “I don’t really know what I’m doing in this language, I’m still learning.” Which I suppose shows a willingness to learn, but that’s about it.

I thought you’re supposed to dual boot until whatever version of windows you have EOLs and then look up the price of updating windows, say “fuck that” and just not boot windows again for a while and then eventually wipe it when you need more disk space.

Am I the only one?

Management could implement a code review process to avoid this.

Software development isn’t a brand new field anymore. Most problems are well known and therefore have well known solutions. So it pretty much always comes down to management not wanting to implement the known solutions to the problems because its easier to blame the devs.
