  • Why is it a bad way to handle things?

    I have an alias set up and SDKs enabled. The experience is indistinguishable from a regular install. But you could also layer it onto the os image or install it in user space if you don't like flatpaks for the extra resource usage or something. That's a complete non issue for me though.

  • I do my main development with Bazzite. I use the Neovim flatpak for my editor and toolbox for builds and such.

  • No upside to Americans maybe. Tweets like this are intended for the electorates of their respective countries, where hating on Trump is still a very easy way to win favourability.

  • I don't buy this. He's driven by his ego more so than money at this point. Influencing world events makes him feel warm and fuzzy.

  • Chess grandmaster Magnus Carlsen rejoins tournament he quit over wearing jeans - after dress code change

    Jump

  • I typically pay $20 or less for my jeans. Anything more than that I consider a ripoff.

  • Or the third option, it's not that funny.

    When it comes to black humour, people tend to have lower standards. I guess for them the shock factor is enough to carry the joke. But once you've seen enough black humour, the shock factor starts to wear thin. The shock factor should complement the joke, not be the subject of it.

  • It's not compiled into Firefox ever. A binary blob is downloaded after the first time you activate DRM. So just don't activate it and it'll never be present on your machine.

  • Yeah, it's a tautology

  • What opinions about the tech industry do you feel comfortable expressing here, but not in public/at work?

  • If the person I will report to can't code, I pass on the contract

    I get this, it's really frustrating to have a clueless manager. But to me, a bigger problem is the reverse.

    I'd rather have a manager with no technical ability and excellent people skills, than a manager with excellent technical ability but no people skills. The latter is all too common in my experience.

  • What are some dating mistakes you often see when people try seeking a partner?

    Jump

  • This is awesome, I think I'd add to this:

    Ask questions. Strike up conversations. Listen attentively. Be genuinely curious about people and ask about their lives. Do this to people of all genders, whether you're attracted to them or not.

  • Steam Winter 2024 Sale

    Jump

  • Yeah, I actually agree. This is better for my wallet and mental health. But it was fun to get excited about these deals

  • Steam Winter 2024 Sale

    Jump

  • I kind of miss the days where specific games were only on sale for one day. There's no excitement anymore.

    Oh yay, I can get these games for the same price they've dropped to almost every month this year.

  • What genres were we playing the most? Let's guess the games. I'll start.

    Jump

  • Yeah same. I'm not sure why that would make it a top 6 though

  • What genres were we playing the most? Let's guess the games. I'll start.

    Jump

  • I have a genre just called "Dog". I know of two games that might fit that category, but their play times have to be less than 1%

  • He's still the largest individual shareholder, so has more to do with Amazon than any other single person.

  • Programmers: Stop Calling Yourselves Engineers

    Jump

  • Same thing in Ontario. I actually have a Bachelors of Software Engineering, but am not legally allowed to call myself an engineer because I never got certified with the regulatory body.
