What disgusting cope. Don’t you have any self-respect?
Just because you can work around the abuse doesn’t mean they aren’t abusing you.
Edit: people like the commenter above are actively making the world worse by normalizing and even excusing abusive corporate practices. I apologize for nothing!
Sure is a good thing Ubuntu doesn’t sometimes sneakily install a Snap when you try to use apt to install a package, such as with Firefox. Tricking users into using Snap without realizing it, making them unknowingly vulnerable to exploits like this, would be really really bad and unethical on Canonical’s part.
Not that I care at all about Disney games
That’s all well and good, until those monopolist fucks buy up a game you do care about.
Nobody pays attention to the dateline, just the Lemmy thread comments and maybe the title. You’re in the minority if you even click the link.
My comment was for the benefit of the majority, so they don’t miss the strike.
Jan 23 is in 4 days, not 10.
I have three identical monitors and (under the time pressure of trying to research while standing in line on launch day), I accidentally bought the wrong version of my graphics card: one with 2x DisplayPort/2x HDMI instead of 3x DisplayPort/1x HDMI. I realized my mistake almost immediately, but because of shortages I of course couldn’t exchange the card for a different version, and I’ve been continually mildly annoyed ever since because the monitor hooked up via HDMI doesn’t behave well compared to the other two. It takes longer to wake up, the picture jiggles up and down occasionally when I play fullscreen video on it, and I’ve even noticed the picture getting tinted sometimes, as if one of the color channels were failing.
I hope this has a side effect of fixing some of that.
x3 for backups.
Holy hell!
I’m no arborist, but I think the reason the branches get too tall and break easily is because you’re pruning it wrong. It’s so desperate to grow that it’s sending up water sprouts instead of having proper branching.
Yeah, I upgraded to a 5700x3D a year ago, but if I’d known RAM was going to be overpriced for half a decade I would’ve gone 9800x3D instead.
I’m not sure I’d call it “relaxing,” but It’s definitely easy mode.
Of course, that’s why so many of the losers among us go off the right-wing/incel deep end: if you’re living on easy mode and you still manage to fail, you’ve got nobody to blame but yourself. But they can’t handle that either, so they go fucking insane desperately trying to find scapegoats.
Why would you pollard an olive tree?
The kernel is copyleft (100% of it).
Technically, sort of, but GPLv2 isn’t good enough. Stuff has to be GPLv3 (or AGPLv3) to fulfill the intent of protecting the end user’s right to control their machine. That’s the essential thing people are looking for when they choose “Linux” — if it’s a tyrant device like a smart TV that’s subverted to work against the user by showing ads or whatever, nobody gives a shit if it’s running a Linux kernel because that fact doesn’t actually help them usurp the manufacturer’s control.
Usurpation of control is what “GNU/Linux” implies. The fine details of which software has what license isn’t the point; whether the system as a whole delivers on the promise of user freedom is.
I should hope it would be, because those antennas don’t fit in my rack and wouldn’t be appropriate even if they did (because I have separate WAPs distributed across the house via PoE).
IMO Jupyter notebooks are a good example to look into first, if you want something more contemporary and somewhat widely-used than “tangle and weave.”
I like the way you presented the ctrl-c blog post as sort of introductory to the tonsky.me one. The second one is much more useful in terms of exploring the details and making specific recommendations, but the first one does a good job of motivating why I should care.
Also, it’s funny how both authors are kinda beating around the edges of literate programming e.g. in their discussion of code comments being one of the things worth highlighting, without ever quite getting there.
It’s a joke (and a bit of a dig on javadoc-esque documentation).
Always have been.
(But now it’s worse because it’s the entire public, not just their competitors)
