  • i used Atom for years until they suddenly stopped development. Pulsar is a fork of that project.

    i use it for low-level code editing like bash scripts, js, and markdown document editing. some json and html.

  • It’s like a comedy version of the matrix, if that makes sense.

    well, Matrix: Russurections was clearly satire, and I laughed through the entire thing, so, yeah, that makes sense to me.

  • That’s not true. Authoritarian leftism is definitely a thing — Soviet communism was extremely authoritarian to the point of totalitarianism. The opposite would be liberal communism, the extreme of which is anarcho-communism.

    Left vs Right and Libertarian vs Authoritarian are two separate axes on a political compass.

  • not everybody. just one, particular sector of society.

  • I’ve used Photoshop for 30 years and have never - not once - paid for it.

    pay for it, HA!

    But just because I have the option of running Photoshop doesn't mean I'm not allowed to have an opinion on GiMP, lmao. Enough with the gatekeeping.

    • Ultima series, especially Ultima VII and Ultima Underworld I & II
    • Myst series
    • Hexen
    • Doom
    • Quake
    • Duke Nukem
    • Postal and Postal II
    • Diablo and Diablo II
    • SimCity and Simcity 2000/SCURK
    • Civilization series (still play!)
  • in a parallel universe and in the past! during the Pakistan/India partition! it's like the writers were like, "so is it time travel or the multiverse?" and they just did both.

  • yeah, having 30 years of Photoshop experience and then being told I have to learn a whole new tool that looks and works completely differently? it took a very long time to become a master of this one tool. now I have to completely re-learn and re-master a new one?

    no thanks.

    not to mention that GiMP is just a pain in the ass to use.

  • Davinci Resolve originally ran on SGI and Sun graphic workstations, which ran IRIX and SOLARIS respectively, both System V UNIX-based OSs. It's pretty cool that they've maintained *nix-based support all of these decades.

  • Something about her grandmother in a parallel universe, i think? it's been a while since I watched the show.

  • and piracy has become easier than ever; with the Plex and the *arr suite of apps (plus a VPN), it's become a completely automated process to create your own, custom streaming server, and for cheaper than paying for several streaming services.

  • nuke it from orbit. it's the only way to be sure.

  • lol, what an amusing metaphor. much better than the "drunk bear in a china shop" I was thinking of.

  • lol, do it anyway. let's see russia hike its troops all the way to the southern tip of Africa. Putin can barely muster enough fighters and ammo for one war on his own border. let's see him try to fight another one half a planet away, lmao. it might as well be in space-- at least there are some russians there already! 🤣

  • well-functioning democracies ideally have a number of safeguards to protect against bad actors-- the US has been being sabotaged from within for decades. Frank-Dodd, Glass-Stiegel, and many other regulations and oversight agencies repealed and gutted... this has resulted in massive corruption. that was the point.
