don’t stoop down to pointless ad hominem. he looks like an entirely average person. attack his idiotic beliefs instead.

far as I’ve heard, Mint can be iffy fhen it comes to games, mostly because they use an outdated kernel. I can also recommend something like Endeavor if the gamer in question has any knack for tech, or Nobara, which is made specifically for gaming by GloriousEgg, maintainer of ProtonGE

"by waking up today, you consent to continue existing, and acknowledge the suffering it brings. Do you wish to continue?”

[yes] [yes]

no the fuck I do not. If I had a magicall button that would let me stop existing without the risk of damaging my neck and spending the rest of my life incapacitated but alive, and it didn’t cause trauma to the people around me, I would have pressed it fucking years ago.

vast statistical majority overwhelmingly consent to live

what disgusting mental acrobatics

pedancy talk aside this is like the most inconsistent rule in all of writing hahhah

even the oxford comma is less debated than punctuation in quotes

Punctuation goes inside of quotes, “like this.”

there is something very satisfying about running pacman -Syu at the end of the day and watching it update the repos, give you a neat list of packages to be upgraded, then see them downloading over all your threads with that little chomp chomp pacman animation, disappearing one by one, or a bunch at once, and then at the end it runs the hooks and you see that [1/23] fill up all the way to [23/23] in the span of a minute…

It’s like popping bubble wrap, but you have 8 hands and 8 bubble sheets and never try to pop the tame bubble twice

There is also the lesser known, but quintessential space game: Space Rangers (GOG). It takes a little figuring out, since it’s a Russian game from 2003 (and a successor of the 1999 game) and they kind of tend to be obtuse like that; but, its genuinely the coolest space sandbox I’ve played. It’s kind of a space Mount and Blade: you can fight aliems, you can trade, you can be a mercenary, or a pirate, and the game accomodates for all of that. At whim, it switches between the core X4-esque gameplay to an RTS, or to a text quest, some of which are basically an entire game of their own. The English translation is a little spotty, but it’s good enough.

Mandalore made a video about it some time ago.

It’s also got a ton of mods! Though not all of them have translations.

I’ve definitely seen both opinions, but mostly leaning negative in my experience. Might just be confirmation bias though lol

Basically lul

Likely cuz Brody is widely considered to be obnoxious and sensationalist, and his videos range from being only surface level to just straight up wrong

Op said thei got an old notebook, trying to run a VM on it would probably be a miserable experience. Depends on the exact model of course, but with low specs and potentially lower hardware support for VMs, its not likely to be a good solution.

dont bother correcting apostrophes as its not a grammatical mistake, simply lazy typing. well never stop doing that no matter how much yall tell us not to, cuz it simply aint all that much of a problem

Community in question has been eduring this for at least 4 years now. Id wager to say that taking matters into their own hands via activism and demanding change with whatever methods they can is a very good look actually.

I think the order they talk in in panel 1 is inverted actually. More like:

Person 2: My car/moving house is the best.

Person 1: Bring it here

This looks like a Jinja template, so definitely supposed so be populated by something else first. Yaml is basically just a prettier Json so it wouldn’t support something like that section on its own.

Nigh time to reclaim the word anyhow 💅

Pretty sure its not a PEP, but the python glossary mentions it. Searching ‘python EAFP’ brings up a lot of discussion on the topic too, so if nothing else its definitely a widespread phenomenon

Truers, just mentioning it

Tbf python guidelines encourage it over if/else in cases like this. “Easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission” or something along the lines

All distros that switch will probably just symlink it to sudo i guess
