That’s funny, I dislike Ruby for probably the same reasons you like it. I don’t want a language that’s clever or elegant, I want it to do exactly what I say and nothing else. Lower level just makes more sense to me, I’d be a shit & unproductive software engineer.

Thank you both for warning me against doing something like that.

Any way to read the article without the paywall?

They cite grsec, that guy is a notorious troll. I’ve seen customers apply their patches thoughtlessly, on bad advice, and bring down production systems. Linux security isn’t perfect (if it was I would be unemployed) but a lot of those problems are solved on properly configured modern systems.

Nah, the 25 has a stylus. The 24 didn’t. The 26 won’t either.

I used to self host email and got sick of my emails never getting through. Email is federated in theory, but pretty centralized in practice. Paying for Proton was definitely worth it.

One character is explicitly underage and sexually assaulted in game. Another is the “she died young and is a ghost so she just LOOKS young but she’s actually way older” trope.

If an artist’s vision is sexualized children, maybe that artist needs an eye exam.

I’ve never used ChatGPT (the workflow sounds tedious) but I have used GitHub copilot for personal stuff. The free ChatGPT has weird rights to your queries, whereas GH copilot doesn’t snarf up your code. It genuinely saves a ton of time if you treat it like an in-line Stack Overflow query. It never gets it 100% right, but it can crap out boilerplate like nobody’s business.

Some of these stores are planning to have food trucks and other event stuff during the strike to raise money for SBWU. So if you’re near one, check it out!

A lot of people here in the US have bought into this as their retirement strategy. The value needs to go up, so they can downsize and ride the leftover cash for the rest of their life. If the number doesn’t go up, they can’t retire. This forces otherwise normal people to become very, very, invested in ensuring real estate is an asset with value that outpaces what people can afford. It’s a ponzi scheme.

Without the context of the class it’s hard to know if “talk about your contributions” is meant as “large parts of America were built on the backs of abused Chinese immigrants,” or if it’s meant to whitewash the experience. E.g., “the immigrants loved the opportunity to contribute to a free western society!”

While the primary motivation for it is definitely cynical, I am quite enjoying the MMO-lite aspects of the game. Running into strangers in the wild and doing activities together feels better in Diablo than it did in Destiny.

Edit: it would be pretty sick if they had an offline-only “realm.” D3 on switch was great for long flights and other places without steady internet. D4 is probably unplayable in air.

I have Fedilab, it does not work with lemmy.
