3. You know Putin would throw every possible resource into influencing that election. He’s damn good at it now too

A 50/50 split on two candidates is literally as divided as it’s possible to be.

Because like it or not, actually paying for stuff is the only way to save journalism and by extension our democracies.

The alternative is to link shitty clickbait / AI spam. At least this way:

1. People might be encouraged to pay for journalism.
2. There are many ways to bypass the paywall for those who won’t or can’t pay.

Please don’t ban paywalls.

The real question is whether they’ll still want in after the US is done with whatever it is they’re doing to it.

At least you aren’t going to die becoming a southern belle.

I always thought kernel devs were smart people. I’m kind of shocked learning a new language is this big of a barrier to them.

He’s not even the worst president this month.

That’s a good point. I should have said “indistinguishable after some tinkering”. You raise a valid complaint, though it’s not a deal breaker for me.

Why is it a bad way to handle things?

I have an alias set up and SDKs enabled. The experience is indistinguishable from a regular install. But you could also layer it onto the os image or install it in user space if you don’t like flatpaks for the extra resource usage or something. That’s a complete non issue for me though.

I do my main development with Bazzite. I use the Neovim flatpak for my editor and toolbox for builds and such.

Usually tomatoes, but I’ve had them with tomato sauce too. I can’t remember if I’ve had them with black olives, but I should! They’re delicious and would totally improve upon a tuna melt.

Have people never heard of a tuna melt? This is just a tuna melt. The only crime here is the pineapple. But I guess if you’re into that kind of thing it would probably taste good to you.

No upside to Americans maybe. Tweets like this are intended for the electorates of their respective countries, where hating on Trump is still a very easy way to win favourability.

I don’t buy this. He’s driven by his ego more so than money at this point. Influencing world events makes him feel warm and fuzzy.

I’ll be back in five moons, we’re running out of mammoth meat (translation)

If the person I will report to can’t code, I pass on the contract

I get this, it’s really frustrating to have a clueless manager. But to me, a bigger problem is the reverse.

I’d rather have a manager with no technical ability and excellent people skills, than a manager with excellent technical ability but no people skills. The latter is all too common in my experience.

This is awesome, I think I’d add to this:

Ask questions. Strike up conversations. Listen attentively. Be genuinely curious about people and ask about their lives. Do this to people of all genders, whether you’re attracted to them or not.

Playnite

Ignoring lint issues comes to mind as an at least somewhat reasonable use case.

Yeah that’s fair. You don’t need to give them a ton of space
