  • Wait, isn't that the guy who got caught smuggling chess shaped butt plugs into the international museum of chess exhibits?

  • Very true, having the delete button bringing up the dialog with the final delete button which sends the call would be completely on the client, like liftoff.

  • That is strange, I haven't had that issue myself. As of today though due to the news I have switched over to piped, a youtube proxy, by importing my subscriptions so that'll hopefully never be an issue. It was surprisingly easy, and works quite well

  • Same with a warning to delete. Accidentally took down a post I made today. Seems t be a theme on lemmy though which is weird

  • Libgen works best for me, with effective C being a reasonable resource. You shouldn't start with C though as your first introduction to memory managment. All resources will assume you know a fair deal about the subject first. I'd suggest you go for zig, or rust or if this is your first language, python, or c# if you want a real challange. C is not a good language to learn first.

  • Thanks for the suggestion, that sounds like a very fun timesink. I'll check it out the next sleepless night I encounter

  • Yeah, I'd be worried about the community dying due to lack of funds instead of engagement. It only takes a month or two for that to happen. Even if the host is decent about it charity can only go so far. I'd vote to not become a new instance as cool as that sounds.

    Edit: I'd rather see funds go to a place like blahaj to keep it up and thriving. That'd be a much better use of money

  • Yeah, sure, but hear me out, imma draw a dick

  • Similar experiance myself, but I've had multiple applications slow down, show major visual glitches or fail to run and when I make an issue on github or look it up in issues it's only happening on nvidia on wayland.

    Still not as terrible as some say but not a great experiance

  • The board is printed out onto a4 sized paper and folded onto a boat

  • Not safer than the aur? Where you run a random script from some random guy who is likely unassociated with the project which has very little chance of being audited?

    Or a normal package? Which has no sandboxing at all. In that case, yes, one could have a poorly sandboxes app, but the vast majority have some to a larger amount of sandboxing. On top of that, they come from a much more heavily audited place than the aur. It is, on average, safer than the average normally packaged package. Some sandboxing is better than no sandboxing

    And no, their warning is not nearly enough. They should state that a person needs to read any package build script before installation and its diff while updating unless they verify the packager is the project maintainer for the application they use

  • I used manjaro first but after hearing about the incompatance of the devs I made the switch to endeavor.

    To justify, they've ddosed the aur accidentally twice, their lead arm dev pushed a commit to the asahi kernal that broke half of the users installs, they tried shipping that kernal while it was very much in development with a broken kernal which couldn't actually run while pretending that "manjaro runs on the m1 macbook" (this could have broken users hardware), and they don't properly tell users the dangers of the aur like the time a guy put two calls to an IP logger beside a list of people who can fuck themselves or an on init fork bomb. This should not be a toggle directly next to snaps and flat packs, which are safer than a normal package.

  • Sorry, it was just the title I guess, thus why I deleted the comment a while ago. Weird you can still see it, even weirder I can edit the aparently deleted comment

  • I thought it'd be over by now but it's just not. At this point I don't know when people will move on, it's like that trash ex you're not completely over that you still complain about far too long into another relationship

  • Yup, though it was renamed to 195 after this one became more popular

    Edit: eh, just the title it looks like. Also, why can I edit deleted comments lol?

  • Yeah moving it off of blahaj seems like a good idea. It seems like 196 is one of the largest mid sized communities here, I can understand that creates alot of issues for the server owners.

    Also, how do you the new line thing? It looks so professional and clean

  • ... no shit bud, we're litterally discussing alternatives to these platforms here. We know my dude. That's why we're finding alternatives.

    Russia has one hell of alot more ability to do this to random pieces of tech in their control than the US by the way, same with china. That's public and written into their laws. Not as much in the US.

    Though, yes, finding a company outside of the 5 eyes is a good idea, we are not the "everyone" you're talking about. Fuck man, we're on lemmy for gods sake
