Constant distraction, shutting out problems until I'm able to deal with them

Not a good method but it kinda works

It might be because I'd never used C but I really struggled to pick up rust for a month or so until it stopped feeling like

Doesn't that mean you'd be stealing from the person because of how crypto works?

Why not just have a copy of a million pounds or something

All he needs is a minute with a prostitute

No, there are probably loads of other factors at play

Funny though

It's interesting that windows 10 lost more than windows 11 gained, .09% of users jumped ship because they didn't want windows 11

I really thought it was just a rich person meming but apparently he took it seriously

Have never heard of that, will have a goggle

The borrow checker, the way it handles exceptions and nulls, the way it handles stack/heap (possibly foreign to me because I've never done much on C), composition pattern instead of oop, probably more I'm forgetting

It's crazy to me that people don't do this, once you've learned a few languages you can basically just pick up new ones straight away (assuming they don't use entirely foreign concepts like Rust does)

But we can all agree that JavaScript was a mistake right?

All well and good for people who know how to do that

A lot of users won't even know what a kernel is let alone why their printer has stopped working or that they need to raise a GitHub issue

This seems like a bad idea... What about people using hardware that needs those

This only works for people who have disks lying around big enough to backup their entire primary disk

Ah sorry misread there are quite a few "should I dual boot to switch from windows to Linux" posts

It's definitely possible to dual boot different distros but what I said still holds true, if you want to try it just installing it as the full os is the way to go. You can always backup and transfer your home directory to keep everything how you'd expect

Stylus for theming, vimium for navigation

It works a lot better than the discord app, more responsive for one. Ctrl k on the app takes a few seconds, takes half a second on web

Multiple instances at once without any hassle is nice, the ability to open links in the same window instead of having it open a browser somewhere (tiling wm with discord in a pop up layer)

Seems to be less resource intensive I assume because no electron wrapper running, just Firefox which I already have open anyway

Plus the main one is that because it's not using electron I don't have the constant drama with insecure electron versions, also if discord forces an update and your package manager doesn't update you just can't use discord for a few days until it catches up

I regularly share my whole screen

I have an issue with the dialog box popping up multiple times but that's it, still works

The only caveat is window specific sharing often doesn't work because of how Wayland works

Spacebar doesn't even do voice calls does it? Let alone screen share

Revolt looks pretty good despite its lack of a large user base

Third party discord clients keep letting me down, not updating their electron version and breaking my system updates cause it's marked insecure

Browser version with extensions is the way to go
