voidMainVoid,

What’s funny is that Disney built their empire largely on public-domain works (such as fairy tales), but when it’s their turn to give back, they fight it tooth and nail. Classic getting to the top and then pulling up the ladder behind you.

voidMainVoid,

It’s traditional to play lots of video games. Trust me on this one.

voidMainVoid,

Some sites work much better with Chromium. I default to Firefox (LibreWolf), though.

I can’t imagine keeping myself locked into only one browser. For as long as I can remember, I’ve always used at least two.

voidMainVoid,

Why is Ctrl-X intuitive? Shouldn’t it be Ctrl-Q (for “quit”)?

voidMainVoid,

In most apps, Ctrl-X means “cut”, not “quit”. Especially when it’s a freakin’ text editor!

I will grant you that it’s more intuitive than vi, but that is a very, very low bar.

voidMainVoid,

Some people like vim the way it is. That’s why they haven’t re-invented it. If you want to use a more intuitive text editor, there are plenty available (such as nano or micro).They don’t need to turn vim into a clone of something that already exists.

As for why it’s still the default… It’s the same reason why everybody uses QWERTY keyboards when Dvorak is clearly superior. People already know how to type with QWERTY and they don’t want to take the time to re-learn with a new layout, change their workflows, etc.

It isn’t universal, though. Garuda Linux defaults to micro. The web dev boot camp I was in didn’t bring vim up at all! We only used nano! I think that was a disservice to the students, but the instructors must’ve thought that it would be too confusing.

voidMainVoid, (edited )

The answer is no. No, we are not.

voidMainVoid,

Are you a farmer? Because you have an awful lot of straw!

voidMainVoid,

Her issue was all the child rape.

voidMainVoid,

They’re much more powerful than a corporation, though. Can you imagine any ordinary corporation surviving a child molestation scandal like that?

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? (gadgettendency.com)

With support ending for Windows 10, the most popular desktop operating system in the world currently, possibly 240 million pcs may be sent to the landfill. This is mostly due to Windows 11’s exorbitant requirements. This will most likely result in many pcs being immediately outdated, and prone to viruses. GNU/Linux may be...

voidMainVoid,

The solution is donate them. Don’t send them to a landfill. Give poor students a free laptop with Linux installed, etc. There are probably thousands of uses for an old computer that are better than sending it to a landfill.

voidMainVoid,

Add to that somebody could be genetically “black” and pass as “white”. It isn’t based on DNA; it’s based on perception.

voidMainVoid,

The Bill Gates microchip is consensual, too. Nobody is talking about forcing people to get microchips. It’s just that people shit a brick when Gates is involved, but not Musk.

voidMainVoid,

It wasn’t the people who died. It was the fact that the US was attacked by a foreign power.

We can fuck up our own shit fine. But if somebody else is fucking up our shit… then we get salty.

voidMainVoid,

Yes, it is disturbing that asshole was president.

voidMainVoid,

I hate passive-aggressiveness, because I want to know what people really think of me. How can you feel secure if you know that somebody might secretly hate you and is just waiting for the right time to put a knife in your back?

voidMainVoid,

Being against apartheid is not a “far left” position.

voidMainVoid,

I think the reason why people in the US care about this genocide (and not others) is because the US is funding it so hard.

voidMainVoid,

As a rule of thumb, if my computer is working without any problems, I’ll just ignore warnings and errors that show up during boot or shutdown.

voidMainVoid,

Aren’t we all supposed to be dead by now from the poisonous vaccine? This has got to be the slowest-working poison I’ve ever seen.

voidMainVoid,

GNOME doesn’t even have the settings I need to make it work.

voidMainVoid,

I miss the days when I thought “Elon Musk” was a fancy French perfume.
