Caveman

I started because I heard it’s good for programming which turned out to be true. Initially stayed because it was customizable but had windows for games. Now just Linux because it’s better for everything I do. I think now people switching to Linux mostly do it because Linux is just better except for niche programs.

Meanwhile I have a riced setup with programmer dvorak keyboard layout and shortcut heavy interaction which makes my computer almost unusable to normies.

Not debating religion good/bad, just pointing out a counterexample. I’m also an atheist.

Absolutely yeah: freedom of practicing one’s own religion and congregate.

Absolutely no: crusades. Everything between is gray area, some almost black, almost white.

P.S. Quran is surprisingly accepting of christians since they accept jesus as a prophet, but not the son of god/is actually god stuff.

Atheists, like me, have been very oppressed throughout history and it’s still illegal to be atheist in a bunch of places. You should absolutely be allowed to make fun of everyone of course and everyone should be given the benefit of the doubt. It’s just specifically this case of burning the Quran that can’t be considered anything else than being intentionally hostile towards muslims.

I think you’re missing the point. It’s never about just burning something. If the person would have burned the quran at home and people later found out and reported it it’s not going to be a legal issue.

It’s more a question of whether this counts as hate speech type action directly targeted at a group protected from discrimination such as lgbt, religion, race and whatnot. If I’m being honest, I think people shouldn’t be allowed to do this on stage in front of an audience while live streaming and I’m not sure where I’d draw the line either.

I think most people would agree that doing a fake hanging of doll that looks like a black guy on stage shouldn’t be allowed, or doing “Let’s burn the muslim” burning of a doll. That’s people doing whatever they want with their own property that is a dead object also. It’s not per se about burning the object, it’s about being hateful towards a minority on purpose.

I get it’s not what I would like to happen in general that a soldier invades another country. Still, they have to die in order to avoid being occupied. It’s a different debate on which is worse and depends a lot on the occupying country and the recipient, generally occupation bad tho.

Yeah, but no on the military part when considering most countries that are not aggressors. A hypothetical “punchback guy” that punches a bully back when you get punched is in my opinion not evil, the bully is.

Everything always gets bolted on with no consideration for memory footprint. It’s basically 2 decades of software inside the memory because if they delete something it breaks.

When I’m hungry at an Asian restaurant I eat faster than fork/knife people with chop sticks.

Depends on the rice, sticky rice is really easy to eat with chop sticks, you can just generally grab anything and get a chunk. Medium sticky you can scoop up but non sticky/liquid sauce is a non-starter.

World’s End is also good. It has just as many details for added fun as the first two except the ending feels a bit off even though it follows the theme of Simon’s character ending up with the world changed where he doesn’t have to.

KDE has been stable recently unless you’re on some rolling release.

It works on mine out of the box so it’s probably related to something further down the stack. I probably can’t help but what distro?

Technically Plex is a paid closed source but self hosted thingy. I think the line is a bit blurry on this since I wouldn’t mind people posting about Plex even though I use Jellyfin. However, advertising it would be a nono.

Warhammer 40k commissars are great for morale boosting.

Empire total war on release, the battle AI was absolute garbage to the point where you can just start as the Netherlands, walk over to Paris and take their country.

Before everyone researches fire by rank you could just spread out the infantry and have 2x firepower. Cavalry charges straight into you, pathfinding was so bad that you’d have a single column of men moving through a wide area. Fucking loved it though, it was a grand strategy spectacle and naval battles felt intense.

I had fun unlocking the pirates via config file edit and spamming out general units from a single buccaneer sword infantry and took over all of the Americas.

That’s a dumb reply. If you count fs from nodejs then you can literally Google “how to [read/write/stream] file in [pretty much any language”.

That’s just straight up wrong man. A lot of words in programming are not just semantics, they’re concrete shorthands for very specific things.

Honestly, that was a perfectly reasonable question and you’re being rude. Pretty much every programmer knows what a filesystem is but a filesystem framework is not clear.

I would have pitched in with questions and suggestions but since you’re being a dick I won’t.
