Yeah, it really bugs me that it's basically absorbed what used to be public forums and whatnot into its own proprietary bubble where search engines don't reach while not even being a good fit for that kind of thing to begin with

Very nice, I do hope that helps us finally get a Linux version sometime soon lol

Best I can do is unhinged and passionate, take it or leave it

Wow, I legit just ordered a used pixel yesterday to give graphene a try lol. Uncanny timing!

Anyhow, that's great news! I can really see the EU sinking its teeth into this if nothing else.

As soon as I saw it was about "the whole gender stuff" I knew it had to be some garbage bigoted take lol

Ideally, you need at least some basic understanding to use the vast majority of languages. The problem isn't even writing the code itself, you can definitely just memorize the keywords and some basic concepts and have at it. If you ask me, the real issue is the availability, amount and overall quality of documentation and learning material if you go about it that way.

I have a few coworkers who skipped the learning English part and learned most everything from other non native speakers and they tend to be crippled by often not really being able to make use of official documentation or keep up with new things, since the vast majority of content out there is in English. It also has the unfortunate side effect of pushing them to stick with whatever it is they learned way back when and not really looking for better ways of getting things done.

So basically, you can pull it off without knowing English but it's going to be suboptimal and/or painful IMO.

As a web developer of questionable frontend skills, it kinda looks like something you'd do as a band-aid solution if you had no idea how forms work or how to suppress their default events, which do happen to include the enter key being pressed. Really wild to go about it that route, whatever the intention was lol.

Edit: While typing my other response down this comment thread, I realized for this to happen the developer must have actually suppressed the event correctly so it's even weirder they chose to handle it like this

Pomni is from The Amazing Digital Circus, a recently released animated pilot where human characters are endlessly tortured by an AI entity in a zany VR world. My best guess is it's correlating said eternal suffering with using Java/Maven or writing tests? Not sure lol

Based ngl

Turns out most were seemingly glad to comply when Netflix pulled that bs so I'll be legitimately shocked if most major streaming services don't follow suit within the next few months. I'm glad my seafaring ass hasn't had to deal with that kind of annoyance in years lol.

A lot of us don't live in the US to begin with, so I assume a significant portion of us just use whatever the local standard is. That's where I've been at so far, the Brazilian layout is a QWERTY variant so not that different. It does make some things more awkward, but you get used to what you have to work with.

Brackets and curly braces are less convenient off the top of my head, backticks too. Vim is a tad less ergonomic without some extra fiddling, for instance. In fact, I've been considering getting a US keyboard for coding to make that kinda thing less of an issue, US international makes accents and whatnot accessible enough that I think I could make it work.

Lol my workplace ships Angular in debug mode. Don't worry though, the whole page kills itself if a dubious third-party library detects the console is open. Very secure and not brittle at all! Please send help

I know it's arguably part of why it's intimidating to your average newcomer but I adore that it's mostly nerdy techies lol. I'm so used to dropping something vaguely technical and being met with the online equivalent of blank stares so people being willing and able to engage with that sort of thing is super nice!

As someone from a developing country, I'm painfully aware of how most big publishers choose to ignore recommended prices and just go with a straight USD conversion most of the time so I can only hope this doesn't screw them even further.

I really wish it was viable for Valve to enforce a ceiling on suggested prices or something along those lines, it's about the only way I see that ever changing. Well, that, or everyone just becoming a full-time sailor, I suppose!

Responsiveness for typical everyday usage is one of the main scenarios kernels like Zen/Liquorix and their out of the box scheduler configurations are meant to improve, and in my experience they help a lot. Maybe give them a go sometime!

Edit: For added context, I remember Zen significantly improving responsiveness under heavy loads such as the one OP is experiencing back when I was experimenting with some particularly computationally intensive tasks

I'm glad Bazzite is finally getting some more mainstream attention, it's an incredible distro! It's my go-to recommendation these days, and what I'd use myself if I wasn't a NixOS nerd lol

That's great first issue to solve, I love the way it fits!

I'll second Rust, it's so fresh and versatile! You can go from super low level stuff all the way to things like web frameworks with WebAssembly and whatnot.

The memory model is definitely a unique beast but I've found it gave me some insight on how it all actually works behind the scenes and I appreciate the strictly enforced correctness too.

I (mtf) used to have the classic embarrassment about going shirtless as a boy, took me years to somewhat overcome. Still somewhat feel it these days but I begrudgingly deal with it anyway because my area is warm as heck.

Also always thought being a man was meh and women were fucking amazing and interesting in pretty much every way but that was totally because I was attracted to them and respectful, still totally cis though!

A particularly sad/hilarious one is the intense and euphoric recurring dreams about being a girl followed by inevitably waking up devastated, that's totally a thing everyone has, right? Right, guys??

That's such an aesthetically pleasing pic, I love it! Retro vibes right there.
