  • I kind of wish they first released a Steam Deck 2 because they might shift their focus towards SteamOS now.

  • Like, you go to your computer and start working on…what?

    Most of my work goes into an opensource game.

    what people do especially when starting out.

    Make some apps for yourself. You'll probably not use them, or even share them, but it's a good thing to have a vision of what you want to make.

    I just want to learn it to know it.

    Being a good programmer takes ages. And even then you'll probably only know a handful of languages and focus on specific branches. If you just want to know it, you'll lose a lot of interest pretty soon because sometimes it takes days to fix something and you really need to be able to push trough those rough patches and that's hard without a goal. Imagine trying to become good at woodworking without actually making furniture.

    But im not sure how to apply it to anything realistic.

    A lot of stuff already has apps for it. And a lot of things are being worked on. People saw the money and a lot of people jumped on the wagon.

    The most realistic thing one can do with programming is to make something that does exactly what they want. And that can even be something small. Like learning how to write scripts that automate simple tasks. I suggest high level languages such as Python, PHP, C# or Java to get going. And only look at low level languages such as C, C++, or Rust when you actually start to understand it.

  • something something peanut farm and conflict of interest.

  • Power

    Jump
  • Yes, just like asking for a fart pass

  • We love Jews but hate Israel. It's not that hard to understand.

    (But then again they know this themselves too)

  • Greenland has allowed a Danish-French consortium to mine a rock which is key to the production of aluminum.

    It's called aluminium.

  • Consider dropping Windows instead

  • That would waste days while there is a danger...

  • And maybe in a few more years you'll be able to exit it.

  • Well the brake and handbrake should block it mechanically.

    Oh.

  • Try to do some research like you would do with closed source tools. See if they have a website and if it links to the GitHub you encountered. Also see if there are subreddits or forums and see what they link to.

    In the case of this "Pro" version of KeePass; a simple search would have shown that there is no Pro version.

  • Run Linux stuff on Windows.

    A big use case is development with Docker containers.

  • It's filter bubbles mostly. You always need counter arguments and modern technology is suppressing those. I believe banning algorithms will help a lot.

  • PSA: The amount of stars on GitHub can be botted and is not a good indicator to know if you are dealing with a legitimate repository. Even the commit history can be faked (although that's less common).

  • Dairy cows are impregnated around 7 times so they can be milked. Most of their calves are used for veal.

  • Cows are known to cry and wail when their calves are taken and killed.
