your username reveals a lot about you, BTW
it’s nothing for a GNU/Linux user
costs me 100 dollars each year just so that I can push an app to their app store, even if I make zero bucks off of it(and if I did, they’d want an additional 30% share of it).
not to mention that I can’t develop an app without a mac – an artificial requirement created by them.
it is expensive for developers that aren’t in the west
Firefox’s inbuilt reader would cut some of the crap
it’s almost as if company begged to get hacked. but imagine the horror those people whose data was leaked had to go through. they open up to their psychologist and now everyone knows about it.
you’re underestimating people’s capability to make such mistakes. remember silk road? the guy used the same username in two places, and gave his email id(which had his full name) in one of them.
they rejected my request for raise because “you already are amongst the ones with highest percentage raise in the past”(which is in single digit, BTW). meanwhile peers who do nothing all day are more paid.
i’m not jealous. just feel like I’m underpaid and overworked
it’s not a ‘racist dog whistle’ now, or at least that wasn’t my intention. it’s another word for three-letter agencies or sometimes even bigtech.
my favourite part is when you do by parts and it results in integral(say equation 1), then you do another and it results in original integral you started with(say equation 2).
so, you go clever and add both and find the result. it’s clever and satisfying.
very nice and accurate lol.
almost all newspapers that report some cybersecurity incident use the terminology on the right.
I do however have real faith in the main developer of lemmy, considering his ideology, which is incompatible with bigtech values.
you can even see it from his own profile.
case in point: Mitchell Baker, CEO of Mozilla corporation(the for profit arm of Mozilla organisation) got 7 million dollars of salary in 2022
please take a look at the replies under zuck’s own post in threads.net and determine if that’s the type of content you want.
for those who don’t want to visit, majority of the commentators are bots. some advertising crypto, and others asking for money.
even if you think you can individually block those accounts, keep in mind the size of threads compared to fediverse.
for Lemmy: monthly active users are barely 150K40K, while for threads it’s 100 million. there’s no chance you can control that inflow of bots.
and if it still doesn’t convince you, you can read threads’ privacy policy, which states that they’ll gather all that pii if you interact with their content.
most of the internet is already bigtech, I don’t want Lemmy to become another arm of it. though I have faith in my instance maintainer and dessalines, the dev.
explanation for the command ci"
:
c
: change. analogous to delete(d
) followed by insert(i
)
i
: inside
"
: the double quote
so, it’s basically change inside double quote(easier to remember as it sounds exactly what it does).
you can similarly do di(
(delete inside parenthesis).
an inferior alternative on vscodium would be shift + alt + right/left arrow
purple, for royal beings only.
don’t forget to delete the accounts too! I’ve seen people just deleting the app and thinking their account is gone too.
Weird way to say spend hours fixing something that just randomly borked your PC.
by work, I meant actual work, and not fixing something.
Last time I fixed something was a few weeks ago. It was MPV needing an update(which was totally my fault, as I often forget to do updates) as a yt-dlp script wasn’t working.
As for something breaking, my experience has been the opposite. Probably because I don’t own any newest hardware and don’t do much gaming, or any other stuff that might require some proprietary service for optimal functioning.
Also, my experience with the community has been excellent so far. Even my basic questions(e.g.: dual boot) were answered promptly and nicely by the community(I mostly use #linux on IRC, or distro-specific forums like linux mint forum).
I’d suggest you to give GNU/Linux one more try. Probably try out something like Nobara if you’re into games. Or maybe Linux mint if you want it to just work.
Maybe you just weren’t lucky the first time.
And don’t worry about fake internet points. They mean nothing.
I love GNU/Linux.
Before I used Debian, I’d constantly fight with my operating system. Every time I opened michaelsoft binbows(which would take ages to open), I’d make sure that simplewall is running, so that bill doesn’t get any more info, after every 180 days, I’d run MAS to renew my office 365. I’d manually sync time since windows would use that same domain to send telemetry.
Now everytime I turn on my computer, the swirl of Debian greets me in a flash, my i3 being ready even before I sit.
I can spend hours doing work without any mandatory updates . It is an operating system that never makes me feel its presence. For that I’m grateful to people like Ian, Stallman, Linus, among countless others making my life better.
