Just passin' through

  • I wanna clarify that when i say VS Code I'm talking about Visual Studio Code. I was only commenting on the difference between Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code because you said you downloaded Visual Studio and was confused why a text editor was 30gb, and it's possible you downloaded the IDE rather than the text editor. I apologize if you thought i was talking about Visual Code; I wasn't.

    And i agree that JetBrains has started to enshittify but I also think their enshittification has been pretty slow because they sell professional tools that still have to perform the basic functionality of an IDE. And for the modt part I've been able to disable all AI features save the ones I'm required to use at work (yay AI usage metrics ;-;)

  • VS Code is considered a highly extensible text editor that can be used as an IDE, especially for web based tools, but it isnt an IDE. It's more comparable to Neovim or Emacs than to IntelliJ in terms of the role it's supposed to fill. Technically. VS Code definitely is used more as an IDE by most people, and those people are weak imo. I'm not one to shill for companies (i promise this isnt astroturf) but if you need to write code Jetbrains probably has the best IDE for that language. Not always true but moee often than not it is imo.

  • Visual Studio is the IDE. VS Code is the text editor.

  • Its because Polaris is actually three stars in a trenchcoat, two of which are older than sharks with one of them being younger. Polaris Aa, the brightest star and what we call the North Star, is probably younger than sharks, while Polaris Ab is probably older than sharks. Polaris B is almost certainly significantly older than sharks.

  • yeah thats not gonna fly. you're gon a have to prove a history of drug abuse and mental illness for that to disqualify you, and for being transgender to disqualify you you have to have already started medically transitioning

  • OP is referring to people who only refer to women as "females". its a weird trait from the manosphere. you'll hear shit like "these females nowadays..." or "you know what the problem with females is...". they can't call them women for some reason. like they can see a group of women and instead of calling them a group of women, they'll be like "those females".

  • He was severely mentally ill and homeless by the end of his life, iirc doing youtube interviews for a big mac. He was a brilliant person who was failed by society and while i definitely don't condone his actions or rhetoric, its my understanding that he wasn't a bigot before his mental health declined. Im sure he had his biases that led to his bigotry later on, but that could be said about almost anyone.

  • the missile doesnt need to survive mount doom, it just needs to survive long enough to accurately and precisely deliver the ring into mount doom. however that does not mean that saurons tower wouldn't be susceptible to a missile attack. and honestly missiles are the dumbest way to deliver explosives. you could imitate asynchronous drone warfare using giant eagles. explosives are known even to orcs so it shouldn't be difficult for them to figure some fun shit out.

  • Be sure to be careful and thoughtful in your color palette though because if colors are important to the understanding of information then it should be accessible.

  • Ladybird is on the horizon.

    Also Firefox isn't built from the ground up I don't believe. It's based on Gecko which iirc was based on KHTML. idk i can't fully remember don't take this as fact. i use firefox and prefer it to chomium based browsers but Mozilla has been making really weird moves lately around AI that I think is very unnecessary.

  • Instead we actually have a problem of too many leftists of different varieties consistently beefing, so kinda similar to bots sometimes.

    I also don't usually use Reddit since i came over to Lemmy and while the content can be a bit thin I much more prefer it over here.

  • probably right now if not a few years ago

  • and probably more fun

  • yeah i watched this show as kid with my dad and we both enjoyed it a lot (and i idolized Barney, although mostly his suits) but looking back theres so much sexual coercion and blatant lying for sex that idk if i could stomach the show nowadays

  • well star trek isnt exacrly apolitical

  • smoker in my early 20s and this advice might change my life.

  • Schools in the US often have a police officer on campus known as an SRO — a School Resource Officer. They're about as useful as you'd expect from American police.

  • i love that this ended in both of you acknowledging how cool this info is and that you can both be right in different ways, and everyone learning something new.

  • at least the positioning is being discussed in a wayland protocol, but its been heavily delayed due to wayland bureaucracy.

  • This is gonna take time but eventually we'll see adequate replacements for smaller WMs like awesome. Especially because awesome is based on dwm, im hoping that as dwl (the wayland version of dwm) matures we'll see projects like awesomewl come about.
