At which point you make such groups illegal and start investigating and prosecuting, officially and not.

Yeah, I know that won't get us to a state of educated well-meaning humanity caring for all life. But I can't deny seeing some assholes getting their own medicine will make me smile for some time

I must add to what Flax sad: most people here can't be your therapist, I for one have zero qualifications for that

Can't plan on "this incarnation - that incarnation" level without becoming conscious enough, and that mostly requires hell lot of work, which requires healthy stable body among other things.

But back to the source problem: there are still people who are not toxic. Seems like you are too, and you just staying alive does matter. Live that long for others who come after you, if not for anything else

Hard agree in every point

Sounds scary. I read a story the other day about a dude who really got himself a discord server with chatbots, and that was his main place of "communicating" and "socializing"

I could, if only I knew they existed :)

I only learned windows had system-level crash logs by reading someone's post about many programs ignoring that and thus it being way less helpful than one might expect it to be, while on Linux it seems something that gets picked up quite early: the system can write "check logs using journalctl something-somethng", vast number of posts asking to provide system logs with the commands to get them, various troubleshooting guides mentioning system logging. Though in the end this difference can be traced to difference in philosophies: neither microsoft, nor most authors of online guides have a habbit of troubleshooting things this way

Usually, sure, but mine was just that. It helped, so kind of solution anyway

Redditor as "a person active on Reddit"? I don't see where I was talking about humans. Or am I misunderstanding the question?

It doesn't, who the hell cares if someone allowed it to break "predict whole text" into "predict part by part, and then "with rhyme, we start at the end". Sounds like a naive (not as in "simplistic", but as "most straightforward") way to code this, so given the task to write an automatic poetry producer, I would start with something similar. The whole thing still stands as fancy auto-complete

Oh hell no. My basic critical thinking applied to googling has got me to a forum with the solution to wi-fi not working in the form of "meh, it happens. reser all network settings and reboot". Which became my personal turning point of "fuck this shit, I'd rather have actually debuggable software"

/cooled down/

Well, your point read as "look at the problem, search for solutions and you probably will find them" stands, it is the low competency bar that triggered me: to even know where crash logs etc might be on Windows is far beyond even "power user" level

After seeing folks on lemmy who wiped their /boot and did other funny stuff I must ask you: do you think your argument is all that righteous?

The idea of immutable distributions does not trigger me: there are valid use cases for that too. But the whole parroting of brainrot "I've got my system fucked, so immutable distros go brrrrr" sounds more and more like a band of childlike people looking for anyone to blame but themselves

I don't care if something could or could not have been prevented with immutability with my system, but I always care of the following: this next thing I am going to do with the system, am I prepared to deal with it if something goes sideways or not. Now that looks like a burn to you or what?

Yes, I second this. QA has caught so many things that did not cross my mind, effectively saving everyone from many painful releases

Indeed, we should not. Thank you for saying this

Nothing wrong you say. Sure, noooothing can go wrong with this approach (I am looking at climate changes, fucking plastic in living organisms, wars not stopping even for a day, idiots in positions of power). Cool story bro, does not work

Lol. Navigating through menu-in-popup-in-window-in-tab-in-popup or adding/changing registry keys you understand nothing about is surely superior, right?

I was today years old when I realized that "just works" has nothing to do with the interface kind. If it works, it works, that's it.

The point was that you have to manually remove them, not create

Or maybe I missed the EFI partition when run gparted after installation, it being much smaller than rest of the drive

Then I offer my apologies for speaking too harshly. And thank you for another perspective on software, I did not think about shapes much before

Also, vim-like mode in IDE gives me a headache too :)

Tried, it irritates me. And nope, I never said my workflow is the best. I answered to your "wild" part. There is nothing wild in coding in vim. And yes, people proclaiming vim family is the greatest thing there is are no better than people proclaiming that only full-fledged IDE can get any job done
