And the “lunch in your own time” means I’ll be at work for 9 hours anyway

We’re not fighting them because they’re rich, we’re fighting the boomer class because they keep giving the billionaires power because they think we’re lazy and billionaires worked hard for their money

What if I write a program that checks argv[0] to decide which part of the code to run, and makes a bunch of symlinks

In Arch I just copy the . desktop application to the system directory through makepkg and it works.

I think using tiling based windows is one of the things that makes it easier for single monitor. I use i3 and it’s way quicker to refer to something on another workspace compared to if I were to have them in separate monitors or stacked views. When using extra monitors i just have it open browser most of the time.

You don’t need multiple screens to code. You can split inside your editor if you need to look at two things, otherwise you just jump between things. Faster thank having to use multiple things

Water is wayyy stronger than air. They were not made for electricity but they had a lot of mechanical forces. Honestly in remote places in mountainous regions, I’ve seen small hydropower projects with turbines the size of water mills power a whole village. Of course they only use it for lights, charging phones and batteries. But it’s good enough compared to the alternative (no electricity)

Only applies if they are not owned by the same company. Or a handful of companies.

We’ve moved past the point where they can get new customers that previously didn’t or will use dating apps. They know we don’t have other choices, they know everyone will use it, and they will use multiple apps.

Arch now has archinstall. So the setup is pretty fast. And if you sync your dotfiles, and have a list of packages to install, you can setup in an hour or so

From someone who installed manjaro because I thought it’d be easier arch, but did not last more than a month

Destructive research. “We need to cut this tree up to know if it’s a valuable really old tree”

I live like this, it has been 10 years, no problem

In that case wouldn’t we just make local networks with our family, and then maybe neighbors. Just have a network that’s not connected to the Internet but still connected to each other. I think we’d just have couple of programming tools, make things, and still use computers, but just the way it was in the beginning, and with everyone making their own things.

Maybe there’d be people using long distance communication protocols to make something that is not the current Internet. Unless that becomes illegal. But can radio waves be illegal? We just need to transmit data somehow

That’s how I feel about the apartments I can afford

I’ve used inkscape to edit PDFs. It’s not perfect but it’s really good. I think it might not do the best job of recovering original objects (idk if that’s possible given how PDFs work), but it can show them as they render and you can modify those objects.

Not if they have hots for a 14yr old

Ostracizing used to work because we needed community. Now they will just go on the Internet and find hundreds if not thousands pro approve what they’re doing.

And whatever the “village” did for a person can be bought with money. And people don’t really do free work for you anyway, maybe your immediate family but that’s about it. So people are more and more individualistic.

Sure, but even accounting for all that, what do you think would be the votes? 55% and 45% instead of 49 & 51?

Even if it was 60/40, the fact that 40% of people are actively supporting all this means it’s too much.

Yes those problems are real, but that doesn’t mean we should ignore the big big problem of a significant part of population that wanted/wants this even now.

Please stop using that logic. The people that voted is a representative sample of the population, done. Is you’d forced every one of voting she to vote then it probably would have been similar result. Because people that didn’t want to go both will have their vote split randomly to candidates.

Honestly given these two choices, not voting means you’re ok with either.

I’ve never see it, who sets it? I only have two processes that are like it and blth wait for 1:30

Yeah, I think it used to be like that, then because programming paid a lot everyone started wanting those jobs even if they didn’t like actual programming.
