AVincentInSpace,

Of course things are going to break if you take something that’s meant to be installed per-user and open up one user’s installation to everyone else on the system. Not Brew’s fault your company’s IT used it outside spec.

AVincentInSpace,

Toys for Tots was pretty good last I checked

AVincentInSpace,

Well I don’t like it so it shouldn’t be here.

tell me you’re a conservative without saying it lmao

WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE LEARN THAT EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL?

The libre software movement has the stated goal of making a political statement. Your decision to exclude discussion of a certain ideology in a certain forum is itself a political decision. It is turtles all the way down.

AVincentInSpace,

So Greta Thunberg and a European guy having his mugshot taken

WHERE IS THAT

I MUST GO THERE

AVincentInSpace,

Well said. I’m saving this comment in case I need to explain this to someone else.

There’s a built in domain blocker with various tiers, e.g. one blocks ads, the next tier up blocks ads and porn, next one is ads, porn, and gambling etc.

I can’t help but notice that they put “Fake News” in a higher blocklist tier than “Social Media”

AVincentInSpace,

AIs are worse at coding than they are at art, and that’s saying something

AVincentInSpace,

you’re assuming I want to talk to the person

AVincentInSpace,

last I checked most rivers were not that thin

AVincentInSpace,

well ye but I mean in real life. If you’re willing to go up to a river and flip it off you better not chicken out when you see how big it is

AVincentInSpace,

Fossil, GNU Bazaar, SVN, as well as some other lesser known ones

It is also the version control system that uses sqlite which is pretty cool as far as disk space and resiliency are concerned esp. as compared to Git.

I don’t however like that it prides itself on not having any history rewriting features because I am kind of a fan of those. I like keeping embarrassing mistakes like a typo’d commit message or missing file out of my permanent commit history.

AVincentInSpace,

daily reminder that no one is forcing you to look at it and that telling people not to enjoy what they enjoy is generally considered uncool

unless of course you see it when googling their name in which case why is safe search off

no shade for being a hater but the block button is right there

AVincentInSpace,

Unless we use videogame logic and it’s an infinite coffee cup

AVincentInSpace,

Technology Connections, and all his videos are as good as that one

AVincentInSpace,

Levar Burton voice But you don’t have to take my word for it.

yeah, snaps, that’s the only thing holding Ubuntu back

not dpkg and by extension apt being a flaming dumpster fire that will corrupt the package database if you look at it funny and there being no way out of that other than an OS reinstall

not the fact that there are zero tools for managing dependencies when building a program from source and you’re entirely on your own when it comes to what *-dev packages you need to install

not the fact that Ubuntu is one of only two distros out of the hundreds that are out there where you can’t use the computer while it’s installing updates

not Canonical’s general policy of “hey, this technology seems pretty cool, let’s find out whether it’s good or not by forcing it on all our users and seeing if they complain” (see: miri display server, cinnamon desktop, and of course snaps)

not the fact that there are ADS IN THE GODDAMN TERMINAL

not the fact that it’s a Linux distro that thinks it’s smarter than you and does something other than what you told it to based on what it thinks you meant (see: apt install firefox installing the snap) which IMO negates one of the primary reasons to use Linux

no it’s snaps

snaps are the problem
