tdawg,

27 is still pretty young all things considered. If you don’t have a family to support then I say take the risk and go where your heart takes you

tdawg,

Funny enough English does this all the time:

  • That’s food.
  • That’s food!
  • That’s food?
  • That’s food?!
  • That’s food…

All have different intonations and punctuation but are otherwise the same. Internet lingo does compensate for this somewhat but at least in “proper” form the above holds true for all kinds of situations

tdawg,

Top is only nice when you first join a community. If you actually want to engage you should be on one of the others

tdawg,

So totally hear you but some stats to add perspective (all from wiki):

  • ~2% of the world has red hair
  • ~2% of American’s identify as homosexual
  • ~5% of American’s are suspected to have ADHD with 90% of them undiagnosed

So if this is accurate then that means roughly one out of every twenty people you walk by on the street has ADHD. Do people over use the term? Yes. Do most people underestimate how frequent it is? Also yes.

Further consider what happens when you give a people who are by definition poorly equiped to restrain themselves social media access and a relatable or spicy topic :p

Sincerely someone recently diagnosed

tdawg,

Yeah was gonna say the Nintendo hacking scene manages to support stuff like this all the time

tdawg,

Honestly my cat also has probably 300 different forms of meow. Most of which are either “where have you been”, “put me down”, and “food”

tdawg,

My favorite thing about this comment section is the ratio of comment score and comment length

tdawg,

People still drink orange juice? Thought it was common knowledge it’s just sugar water

tdawg,

The new “Ruse Policy” was established with the notion that while the ruse tactic may be necessary in specific situations to support public safety, the need and conditions for its use should be strongly and clearly defined, SPD said in a press release

Yeah I mean this sounds pretty straightforward. At a minum we need clear definitions and expectations about what it is and what is allowed. Even if you think we shouldn’t let police do this at all

tdawg,

~/.config superiority

tdawg,

Every tool I build checks three places:

  1. An env variable (if it exists) which should point to a dir of the users choosing
  2. ~/.config/tool-name/
  3. ~/.tool-name

Which imo is how every modern application should work

tdawg,

It’s from $HOME so you would want to use the first option

But it’s GTK that var is used by some people

tdawg, (edited )

I honestly can’t understand the people defending how it sounds. It sounds terrible. I’d honestly rather they not included the announcers at all and just saved the money. I’ve already disabled all dialogue in the game

Edit: I’m dumb and said this before reading the article. The voices are AI, not the dialogue. I think the voices are totally passable (if obnoxious). The dialogue is what grates against me so

tdawg,

For anyone struggling with this I have two things that might help

In the moment, you need to get out of bed. Doesn’t matter with you do. You’ll feel tired again after a while and then you can go back to bed. You don’t want your brain associating your bed with being awake

More systemically though. You might not be getting enough exercise. Especially if you work at a desk, or are a student. I like going on long walks, but just find something that works for you. The key here is to experiment

tdawg,

For anyone who wants to get into this just know that A) it has aged VERY poorly. There are tons of aspects about the UX that are just terrible and frustrating. And B) it’s better with a group

But if you can get past all that then it’s really fun

tdawg,

This has circled around the internet for years now. I remember the last time I saw it people were losing their minds over how “reductive” it was. Blew me away

tdawg,

Cartoons are wild as an adult

TIL about this tool, the *Reinigungsschaber* ! (lemmy.world)

I had lost hope with my electric cooking plates. The white circles where completely hidden under a layer of diamond-grade burn residue that no amount of scrubbing with chemicals could even begin to remove. I found this 3€ scrapping tool and it’s amazing !!! Sorry, but I don’t have the before picture, believe me after 6...

tdawg,

My grandfather has something similar but it’s brass (or maybe copper) on the the end. Swears by it for all kinds of things

tdawg,

Ce n’est pas de la nourriture

tdawg,

Just conform to my unspoken expectations forehead

Would becoming a chef be a terrible idea?

I’m not presently working but I trained, and worked as, a software developer. I struggle a lot with work and my working life has been very chaotic due to shit mental health. It seems like a really stupid idea, as being a chef is meant to be really stressful. However, the idea of it being fast-paced, immediate, physical,...

tdawg,

my time working in the restaurant industry was the worst employment experience I’ve ever had in my life. The expectations are shit, the pay is shit, the benefits are shit, the hours are shit

But some people seem to love it despite all that so

tdawg,

Welcome to lemmy everyone. In this comment section you’ll find:

  • people missing the point
  • people jumping to conclusions
  • people getting angry at something they made up

And more! Have fun

tdawg,

Is ddg actually good now? I remember it feeling nearly useless waay back when it was first hitting the scene. Might have to give it a shot again

tdawg,

What the hell is a kagi

tdawg,

You forgot to put “for some reason” in italics for extra sarcasm

tdawg,

And people wonder why Linux has never gained large marketshare

tdawg,

“People are an asshole to me. So it’s okay if I’m an asshole to them”

tdawg,

People generally mean consumer facing products when they talk about market share. In particular I was commenting on how many Linux communities are still obsessed with the idea that desktop Linux will win out over Windows

tdawg,

Ya know that’s a fair point about the phones. But as far as desktop I still see lots of posts about how Linux is “taking over” the (desktop) gaming space. Most of which ignore the real reasons people don’t use Linux (again, on desktop) (the community, the difficulty of setup, the inertia, etc)

tdawg,

Honestly I couldn’t even finish the movie. It was just boring

tdawg,

I only have that problem with the free version

tdawg,

It’s better than stackoverflow and faster than google. It’s a tool, it makes my work easier, that’s about the extent of it

tdawg,

Depends on how the market shakes out really. The reason places like YT can get away with it is cuz they were able to choke out the competition first. Currently a lot of people I know find Bard just as useful as GPT. And even others who like the Bing AI

if we end up in a world with one clear winner then yeah, it’s inevitable. Just gonna have to wait and see

tdawg,

As someone who is a big fan of shipping fast and shipping often :tm: this article is both really great and also cemented why I’ll never like rust. It’s a neat tool, just not for me

tdawg,

Seriously what’s up with lemmy and taking the most disingenuous interpretation of someone’s words

The article literally covered how rust is terrible for iteration and refactoring. Which are corner stones to building software in a small business. Which is where I’ve worked for the last six years. Which is also my personal favorite way to write code.

Y’all don’t have to start a damn argument every time someone disagrees with you

tdawg,

I’m glad you enjoy it. If you find the blog to not fit within your world experience no one is saying you need to take it otherwise. However the author’s take did resonate with me

The “problem” (as you put it) is that people get emotionally invested in their language of choice. Instead of just accepting that there will always be as many languages (and styles of language) as there are types of people

Rust is great! I’m glad people like it. But for me it will always be painful and that slows me down. A slow developer is a hungry developer

People can like different things y’all

tdawg,

Y’all are taking my hyperbole a bit literal. I’m sure rust is fine. The article had brought up that iteration and flexibility are the weak points. This resonates with my personal experience. That was my entire point from the beginning. I don’t like rust, I will never like rust. I’m glad y’all like rust. There is no “argument” here. It’s just opinion

The only thing I have issue with is people pretending I’m somehow a crazy person for not liking their favorite toy

tdawg,

This is hilarious, but also if you do this then I hate you

tdawg,

Don’t start with classes. Start with something that actually does something you understand. Like updating text files. Or pulling data about something you find interesting

automatetheboringstuff.com

Is a good book every newbie should read. It teaches you how to use programming like a tool

tdawg,

Honestly Edge might be better at this point but it really doesn’t matter. Google won the browser war years ago and people have too much inertia to care

tdawg,

Y’all burnt. Hope life treats you better soon
