platypus_plumba,

Damn, you assumed pronouns like 4 times. Get ready to go to trans jail (jk)

platypus_plumba,

You IMPLIED? That’s even worse than assuming. Life sentence.

platypus_plumba,

There’s no meme, just 3 jokes

platypus_plumba,

What about giving money to the royal family because of reasons?

platypus_plumba,

Exactly, this is something that even humans would have a hard time doing. Even though AI can do many things better than humans, humans are better at vision at the moment.

platypus_plumba,

Really depends on the task and how critical it is. I would never use gparted on the terminal, 3 clicks and I’m done in the UI, without risks.

Oh god, this is so racist for 2023. Makes it funnier somehow.

platypus_plumba,

Oh wow, how did you even catch that.

platypus_plumba,

Oh man, this one is hilarious

platypus_plumba,

I’m understanding like 50% of these. At the risk of killing the joke, could you explain?

platypus_plumba,

Next thing you know they are looking at packages compile in Gentoo on a Friday night.

platypus_plumba,

Yeha, but you can ask for help without taking a shit on the effort of thousands of engineers.

If you’re using a whole kernel for free, at least be nice when very deep technical things that you clearly don’t understand don’t go as you expected.

It’s called having etiquette

He’s the one who should ask for help nicely.

  1. He’s the one asking for help.
  2. This is a 100% free and extremely complex piece of technology built by very smart people, so chances are that he is the problem and not the kernel.
  3. Always be nice, even if the product is the problem. Specially when it is given to you for free.
  4. People are answering to him with the same attitude he used to ask for help. You get what you give.

Imagine you clean your friend’s house for free because you’re a good friend. 2 hours later he calls you and says “What the fuck am I supposed to do with the shoes you forgot to pick from the living room?”.

Can you even call that asking for help? He’s clearly just bitching.

“Is compiling packages for days your favorite activity?” -> Gentoo

“Do you believe an OS can turn you into a hacker?” -> Kali

platypus_plumba,

I wonder if he honestly thinks women aren’t allowed to disagree? He thinks they don’t have a brain and opinions?

What does he think women are?

platypus_plumba,

I’ll upvote the post only because I want more people to upvote your comment.

— When the Indian Amazon support guy sees you’re a junior on your first week and tells you to execute a script to install a software for a video call with him. And you do, but it needs sudo access, so you give it…

— You have sudo power here

Sadly, true story. I never told anyone. My neurons clicked a day after that and I removed everything from the computer. It was too late, they hacked some things but IT just laughed and recovered some backups. They never knew I was the virus all along.

Good times.

Remember everyone in the world uses the internet. Some people are in the process of learning English, and they are just starting to interact with it. I’m not a native and it was pretty hurtful when people mocked my best attempts to communicate in their language. Give him a break. I know you’re joking, this is for other people planning to say something mean.

platypus_plumba,

Same here, I just assumed it was a special thing that saved the last command. Had no idea it was actually a query to the history

platypus_plumba,

I was just forced to Switch to Mac and let me tell you that I’m actually enjoying it.

Things I like so far:

  • An actual modern email client that isn’t web based. Web mail clients feel so cumbersome.
  • Same thing for a calendar application.
  • Nice reminders app out of the box. Can schedule alarms on reminders and categorize them.
  • Nice notes app that I don’t need to constantly save. It never closes, which feels great compared to Gedit.
  • Security. Apps notify me when they want to access system resources and I have to authorize them.
  • Unix. Unix matters a lot.
  • Homebrew has incredible support. I can install almost anything with it.
  • Iterm2 feels almost like Terminator.

Things I hate:

  • The fact that they have another keyboard layout. Although, after 3 days I’m getting used.
  • Updates take forever, it’s insane.
  • Can’t easily switch back and forth (not cycle) between windows of same apps. Haven’t figured this one out.
  • Docker runs in a VM, it sucks.
  • Can’t get used to multiple desktops. I hate them.

Honestly, it isn’t as bad as Windows. As long as I have a terminal and a nice shell, I’m good.

platypus_plumba,

This idea has crossed my mind many times. Thankfully, I’m too lazy to do anything about it.

Trying to do a basic Docker image during an interview was wild.

I was writing shit like “chmod user:user 400 file”

Somehow the person didn’t notice and said everything looked fine. When the interview was over, I looked at it and every single command was shit.

platypus_plumba,

I wonder what it is
