I just want real Pokemon battles and an easier way to sort by appraisal.

Does this turn Linux into a RTOS that can do stuff like control the ECU or traction control for a motorcycle?

This has to be a record for the most downvoted comment on Lemmy, holy moly. This is a huge absolute margin even for reddit.

If enabled, this could secretly start purchasing random things with your credit card, pretty much just stealing your money. We can’t trust a voice assistant with this, why trust AI?

It’s really good for generating code snippets based on what I want to do (ex. “How do I play audio in a browser using JavaScript?”) and debugging small sections of code.

Think about why you joined Lemmy. Reddit has been getting greedier and greedier, so you left to a place where the grass is greener. The same thing is true with Windows and Linux (and Linux is also much more big and mature than Lemmy). It attracts the same kind of people.

100 times this.

I think I have a solid grasp of C++ and its manual memory management, but give me a build error and I’ll have zero clue how to fix it.

Don’t forget the benefit of being able to spite Google!

Perhaps some components of the game can be open-sourced, especially regarding modding APIs and whatnot. Still allows them to keep some things closed for a while, but could expand the mods and optimization even further.

It won’t do 4k 60fps HDR, but it can play 40 years worth of games, and also do office and productivity work while being portable to take it outside of your home.

Never heard of the former, and you don’t need to use porn to fap. Porn addiction is absolutely a real thing though.

Yep. Although it’s hard to abuse fapping because you run out of sperm lol. It can be a big time waster though.

It’s not even nofap, it’s no nut November. The former is a philosophy, the latter is a challenge.

I think people downvote nofap here because it makes some arguments that really stretch the truth and feed into bigger lies. In reality, there’s nothing wrong with not fapping, but there’s also nothing wrong with fapping.

Unexpected factorial

NNN communities also get downvote brigaded, even though the famous Internet challenge is largely apolitical.

Paying for software is okay, except when it keeps trying to milk you even after paying for it, especially if it’s a subscription. This can come in the form of ads, the sale of personal information, or some other crap (such as binding arbitration).

I once read that the license should be smaller than your code. Gives me a good baseline:

• Permissive license for small projects and little tests

• Copyleft license for big projects

Yes by default, but there should be an option to make them public

Make it optional and opt-in.

Funny enough, my college pushed me to a Linux dual boot.

One of my classes required an Ubuntu environment for C++ programming, and after trying and failing to get WSL working, I decided to just dual boot (from 2 separate SSDs) instead of trying to work around the limitations of a VM.

On the other hand, 2 of my other classes required a Windows-only program.

I used to default to Windows, but after the BS from Microsoft this year I switched to defaulting to Ubuntu.
