Much nicer than C, much simpler than C++, much less cruft than both.

I see 306 issues and 0 pull requests. That’s got to be a bit discouraging as an open source project maintainer - plenty of people filing bug reports but no one that cares enough to help fix the bugs.

Are you a programmer? If so, the code is open source, so you could try fixing it on your own; it doesn’t seem that hard to fix. You could try to find where they are handling scroll input and see if there is anything that tells you what direction it is. Then if it’s horizontal just ignore it.

You are exactly right. This whole thread is full of people complaining about the price, but it’s perfectly justifiable for this one reason. If you have a significant other then it’s actually cheaper to rent than it is to go to the theater. And big screen TVs are commonplace, so the experience is about the same (arguably better since you can pause if you have to go pee, can rewind if you missed something, can be as obnoxious as you want, don’t have to commute there, and don’t have to deal with sticky floors and overpriced popcorn).

I’m not saying the price is reasonable (it’s too high in my opinion) but people need to stop pretending like it makes no sense from a business perspective. It’s a no-brainer to the average non-pirating consumer: they are getting something better, for cheaper.

This article is garbage IMO. It’s no surprise that malware exists on NPM (since uploaded code is not security-reviewed), and that different types of malware present different types of threats.

The actual interesting part is the names of the packages, which are somewhat clever IMO as they seem harmless and legitimate, but this trash summary article decided to strip out the package names.

Here is the original article which does have the package names: https://www.fortinet.com/blog/threat-research/malicious-packages-hiddin-in-npm

The dushbags trashing on Flatpaks and Appimages and Snaps are totally in the right 😈

To be fair, the Fahrenheit measurement should be pretty intuitive here. Fahrenheit is easy because 0 degrees is “really fucking cold” and 100 degrees is “really fucking hot.” So anything triple-digits should be easily recognizable as “yeah that’s way too fucking hot for a phone.”

This is also why I prefer Fahrenheit to Celsius in general (even though I am an engineer and am not a die-hard patriot or anything like that). It is a more practical scale for everyday usage.

and don’t call me Shirley.

You’re probably joking but just to save people some time, it does not actually recommend HTMX. (I remembered seeing this website a while back but didn’t recall anything about HTMX so had to check.)

Hot take (maybe?) C# looks like a great language, better than Java. I wish I had an excuse to use it.

This is really odd, I hit this same issue recently. Booting into an old kernel also fixed it for me. What distro are you using? I’m on Ubuntu.
