Man, fish has me spoiled

I think it’s to a whole different degree in Japan though, at least from what I’ve heard. Forced drinking parties at work, for example.

This is what bothers me so much… Browsers should be improving their PWA implementation (looking at you, Firefox) and electron apps should be PWAs more often. Another decent middle ground Is Tauri. SilverBullet and Yaak are both so much lighter and better than anything else on my system.

Future far cry titles did also have the same fire spreading system, just toned down since they’re not set in very dry places.

You already have those problems, clearly.

Summit and Thunder are cool. Especially Summit.

I mean, flatpaks are great…

Zed with all the AI stuff turned off is surprisingly nice

Just another reason to use fish

I reject your reality and substitute my own!

There are plenty of people who believe the propaganda that Bin Salman sells. This is much harder to refute, even for them.

Epstein had a very casual photo of the two of them together, almost like old buddies. That’s the crucial bit I believe.

I’m worried some might not get this joke

An interesting use case for me in programming has been prototyping. Stuff I otherwise wouldn’t have the time to experiment with suddenly becomes something feasible. And then, based on what I learnt while having the AI build the prototype, I can build the actual thing I want to build. So far, it has worked out pretty nicely for me.

Nushell?

What Google’s response actually looks like:

It sounds like there might be a misunderstanding about how foldable phones work!

Foldable phones are not inflated. They are highly sophisticated electronic devices with a flexible screen and a complex hinge mechanism that allows them to bend or fold.

Here’s how they generally work:

• Flexible Display: Unlike traditional smartphones with rigid glass screens, foldable phones use flexible OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) or AMOLED displays. These displays are built on a plastic or polyimide substrate, which is much more flexible and can bend without breaking.
• Hinge Mechanism: This is a crucial component. Manufacturers like Samsung, Google, Huawei, and others have developed intricate hinge designs (often involving multiple interlocking gears) that allow the phone to fold and unfold smoothly and precisely. The hinge is designed to be durable and withstand thousands of folds.
• Software Optimization: The operating system (usually Android) is optimized to adapt to the different screen states. When the phone is folded, it functions like a compact smartphone. When unfolded, the software seamlessly adjusts the interface to take advantage of the larger, tablet-like screen, enabling multitasking and enhanced viewing experiences.
• Materials: While the core display is flexible, manufacturers often use ultra-thin glass (UTG) or specialized flexible plastic layers on top for improved scratch resistance and a more premium feel.

So, to be clear, you don’t “inflate” a foldable phone like a balloon. You simply unfold it to reveal the larger screen, and fold it back up for a more compact form factor.

There are pretty much no support systems in place for situations like this in most places. So, exile can mean starvation and more where I’m from. I don’t know about where OP is from though.

Nix is a great suggestion and I think i will be using it moving forward as well. Thanks. Ideally I want to use NixOS, do you know if secure boot is still a pain point with NixOS?

npm is JS-specific

I don’t want to use a distro package manager for certain software because nearly every distro except Arch requires adding third party repositories which can stop getting updates at any second.

Don’t worry, I understand the intricacies of these problems a lot more deeply than you probably realise. As a developer, it can suck when your “hotfix” cools down by the time a distro gets around to packaging it. And as a packager, you’re human in the end. As a user though, you just want stuff to work.

As a longtime Linux user, this isn’t really a problem for me, none of this is. But what about a new user? We need to address these issues at some point if we want Linux to be truly user-friendly.
