The versions still make me reluctant to try rust. I’m sure it’s reliable in theory but I’m always getting cockblocked when someone’s python project doesn’t work because of dependencies and different versions. I once remade a python 3d object format converter in c++ because that was easier than a) fixing whatever dependency and runtime version shenanigans or b) using whatever bullshit ass Windows-only propriety software most people used to make that file conversion

As the enshitification of the internet continues, this is going to start becoming more and more the case for me
On reddit, if your karma is too low you’re not allowed to participate in most communities.
Tech paranoid all the way, although not the same type of tech paranoid as Luke Smith. The only good computer is one you have the hardware schematics to (i.e. virtually none of them). Thinkpads are just another brand of overpriced laptop. Besides the occasional steam game, I heavily prefer FOSS only and will flat out refuse almost anything that has drm. My unlocked bootloader android phone is so heavily locked down with privacy stuff that I cause Google to lose money merely by existing.
It’s pronounced GIF
What an amazing invention. Wait until someone invents a wooden stick with a flattened end that you push through the water and propels vessels forward using only manual labor.
What at-home stuff can you do to maintain your teeth? Brushing and flossing twice a day just doesn’t cut it. Brown stuff still eventually builds up around the edges and right above the gum line (although it does take quite a few years). Being obsessive about dental hygiene only delays the buildup and is not sustainable on its own. I may be able to afford dentist appointments now but by the way society is headed, that may not be the case 10 years from now or even next month.
Dang, I sure am glad I pirated like every Nintendo rom N64 and prior a long time ago before they started purging everything.
Until we colonize other planets, downsizing is the only way humanity will survive.
Been using Linux since the 00s. Took until maybe 2014 or 2015 until it got to the point where I no longer had Windows even on dual boot.
I think I got up to 300 or so days on my old Athlon XP Gentoo server. I have “upgraded” since then and my current server can’t go more than 2 days. I have an arduino connected to the motherboards reset button pin that resets it whenever the bash script that communicates with the arduino stops running but even that somehow still crashes at least once a week and needs manual intervention.
Funny how alcohol addicts are allowed to participate in society normally though while no one in any high paying job is allowed to smoke a joint.
D is how I save money on toilet paper
Outside cats will eat almost anything and like it. Try offering it some wet cat food or some tuna and maybe it will become your friend.
Cats are easily spooked so if being nice doesn’t work, I would be surprised if a water gun doesn’t make it turn around and run away.
