God forbid you have to can pay for stuff if you want.

It’s a third party app. One of many. With an optional purchase to support the dev. Honestly…

I had only used Jerboa til I tried Sync. It looks a bit better and feels a bit nicer to use for me. I think that’s the point of it.

Complaining about a $20 purchase you don’t have to make qualifies for “cheapskate” I think. Simply not purchasing it, or not wanting to purchase it, is fine. The difference is entitlement.

If anything, the eternal September would have started when Reddit killed itself. I can’t imagine people thinking it’s starting now.

The RIF dev recently released an alpha for his Tildes app, Three Cheers for Tildes. It’s in an earlier state than Sync but already quite usable.

I love all dogs but I can still appreciate a good pitbull eating kids joke. He just looks so happy.

I wonder if this actually fixes the ancient dwm bug that causes simultaneous motion on multiple monitors with different refresh rates to make the whole window manager choppy. That bug has existed since at least Vista, and it sucks. Nothing like buying a 240Hz monitor and not being able to watch videos on my secondary one without bringing them both down to what looks like 60.

I get the meme, but it’s bittersweet since Jagex is ending Linux support with their new launcher. It’s only a matter of time before they break WINE compatibility even more. Sad.

kogasa,

On their official support page about playing on Linux, it says “we will not support Linux.” “Their” workaround (which the community found) involves using a Windows vm to unpack the installer, but like I said, it’s a matter of time.

Once you switch to a Jagex account, you can only ever use the first-party launcher to log in, even with Runelite. You can’t switch back. Switching to a Jagex account will eventually become mandatory, and at some point they will kill off Runelite too in favor of the C++ client.

kogasa,

They would. I don’t think they’ll kill it for a while yet, but the C++ client was always intended to eventually replace Runelite. Which is a bummer for all the community plugins that won’t ever exist in the C++ client (including one I wrote to make notifications useful on non-Windows platforms), but not as much of a bummer as when the launcher inevitably stops working in WINE.

Nothing to do with category theory. A homomorphism of linear graphs is a fairly concrete object, and Conway only uses graph theoretic terminology to clarify his semi-formal exposition. Dunno if I’d say there’s much math not being respected.

Been using BTRFS for all disks and purposes for a few years, I would recommend it with the requirement that you research it first. There are things you should know, like how/when to disable CoW, how to manage snapshots, how to measure filesystem use, and what the risks/purposes of the various btrfs operations are. If you know enough to avoid doing something bad with it, it’s very unlikely to break on you.

Me too!

It is, in fact, completely arbitrary. There is no reason why we should read 1+23 as 1 + (23) instead of (1 + 2) * 3 except that it is conventional and having a convention facilitates communication. No, it has nothing to do with set theory or mathematical foundations. It is literally just a notational convention, and not the only one that is still currently used.

Edit: I literally have an MSc in math, but good to see Lemmy is just as much on board with the Dunning-Kruger effect as Reddit.

kogasa,
@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

Your point is not clear.

1 + (2 * 3) by always doing addition first we can remove those brackets.

(1 * 3) + (2 * 3) can be rewritten as (1 + 2) * 3 so using the first rule again makes sense.

Do you see the issue?

kogasa,
@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

I don’t know how else to explain it. I used your own argument verbatim but with the opposite assumption, that addition takes priority over multiplication. In either case, some expressions can be written without parentheses which require parentheses in the other case.

This has less to do with liking capitalism than it does with self-avowed communists on the internet being insufferable.

Isn’t it immutable? That’s a pretty big difference in itself

edit: Thank you for the replies, I’ll have to learn more!
