  • I have nothing against a commonly used, OS-independent shortcut key. I do have a problem with MS slapping their greasy logos on things that aren't from MS just because they have the power to strong arm their OEMs.

  • I can't imagine walking around and just assuming everything is a magic black box and not have the slightest curiosity about how something works.

  • What Windows? I got Debian, and some shit that tests my memory.

  • Nobody:

    C: "Lemme just accept anything the user gives me, write beyond the input buffer, glitch out, and start executing whatever the fuck the user injects in there."

    Still a decent language though, but like an oxy-acetylene torch, it's powerful tool, but you better know what you're doing.

  • I just copy my whole-ass home dir to an external drive every so often like a caveman.

  • He was one of my favorite characters actually. Kinda sad.

  • My right of passage was trying to run hobby websites in the early 2000s using a pirated copy of Windows Server with IIS. Then I discovered Apache and Linux LAMP stacks and realized how much IIS sucks and it was all over from there.

    I even was inspired to get back into programming due to wanting to learn PHP ( I only had some QBasic experience at the time). Now I can do PHP, C, C++, and JS (granted they all have extremely similar syntax)

  • I usually just disable all this useless eyecandy shit. I like seeing the raw boot messages scroll across my screen. Let's me know early if something is fucked.

  • Jesus Christ dude, go outside and smoke a blunt. It's time to take a break.

  • Yo Arch users. Try daily driving Linux From Scratch. I dare ya. Let's see what you're really made of.

  • There is an option in the installer to enable the non-free software repository. It's just not checked by default.

  • Spoken like someone who never got hooked on nicotine.

    "Why don't heroin users just stop doing heroin?"

  • Personally, I can't keep a vape in one working piece for two years. Either the battery box fries, I shatter the tank, the USB port gets destroyed, or something else goes wrong. I'm very clumsy.

    I have a box of backup parts and pieces at home because of this.

  • I assume (in theory) because his actions are not his own, but are the actions that his constituency wants him to take, so the responsibility lies with the mouth breathers that elected him. And you can't charge a group of citizens for voting a certain way.

    Everything he is doing, he is doing within the legal framework of our system, as fucked as it is. It's just that the framework has never been tested and pushed like this. People used to be mature and reasonable, and that USED to be enough to keep things flowing. Now they're examining every loophole in the book to try to get their way any way they can.

  • Yes, to suppress swearing or offensive content, not suppress ideas. You could still talk about a touchy subject by filtering out keywords and using substitutions.

  • Standard TempleOS development environment.

    RIP Terry Davis you crazy fucking genius.

  • No, it's yo'ou're, and you have to say it like a Klingon.
