TIL about aphantasia
Anyways, I’m between 1 - 2, and I just wanted to say that just bc I can visualize things in my head doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy seeing things with my eyes. If I was good at drawing, I definitely would draw my OCs and such
But no, I don’t watch adult videos. I just don’t really like nsfw. Maybe I’m asexual or smt, idk
FINALLY someone gets this. I don’t care about the “premium look” whatever that means, I just don’t want my phone to break when I accidentally drop it. Which is why I always put a case on my phone
In fact, I’m pretty sure phone manufacturers started putting glass on the back of phones specifically to make them less durable so that customers buy a new phone sooner
I prefer tabs because they aren’t consistent
I personally find 2-space indented code harder to read than 4-space. If I’m working on someone else’s codebase which is indented with 2-spaces then I have to cope. But if it’s tab-indented then I can just edit the setting in my editor to display a tab char as 4 whitespace chars
Uses spaces instead of tabs.
From the ROM website’s footer:
A custom ROM based on AOSP, which offers a minimal UI enhancement & close to stock pixel Android ROM with great “Performance”, “Security” and “Stability”.
I see now why they “quoted” stability :P
Oh, and just using ADB is enough to trigger the code to wipe the data. But that’s fine according to the developer because “its just a format data, not like your phone gets destroyed”
What makes this even funnier is that on their website they say that the ROM is great and all (with very poor grammar and odd phrasing), but they don’t say what they actually changed. The closest thing I could find was their screenshot gallery where they show some new icons and AI-generated wallpapers
Also corporate memphis art everywhere because why not lol
I feel sorry for anyone who was using this ROM, but this whole thing is hilarious
Not really surprising considering that (IIRC) it’s the default on the Gnome variants of Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora
But keep in mind that voluntary data tends to be pretty skewed
For the most part probably not, but Microsoft cares a lot about backwards compatibility so I imagine some of this code still lives on in Windows
Though you should take this with a grain of salt, since I’m saying this as someone who 1. never looked at Wine source code 2. used the Windows API only once, for a very small program 3. is still learning programming, so I wouldn’t call myself a coder (yet) either
Probably yeah, but now they’ve officially released it under the MIT license so stuff like Wine could now potentially borrow some code to improve compatibility with Windows
The only way it’s profitable for someone to knock on your door to sell ANYTHING is if they are obscenely inflating the price (think 100-600% markup)
I agree, but does anyone actually do that? No one ever came to my house to try to sell me something
Pianki (which is literally just foam in english)
Yeah, my mom didn’t have issues with that, but she did have issues with other almost as basic stuff
Yeah, but when I tried to get my mom to use Linux, she kept asking me how to do some things like moving a file, printing a PDF, saving a document in Libreoffice (even though she had no trouble doing it on Windows also with Libreoffice) etc. I’ve set up everything to be as seamless and close to Windows as possible but she still always had trouble doing something so I gave up, and reinstalled Windows. Ig my mom is just less tech savy than your family ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Mostly yeah
I think the reason is that 1. Linux is still too hard for the average person and 2. The average person just doesn’t care
Yes, you don’t have to write bash scripts or compile the kernel yourself, but still, Linux is different in many ways from Windows. This is on top of the fact that most people don’t know much about tech in general and often have problems with (imo) very basic stuff. I honestly can’t imagine them downloading an ISO file, flashing it onto an USB stick and then booting from it. Most people probably don’t even know that Windows != PC
Then there’s also the fact that the average person just doesn’t care. They just want to get things done
(sidenote: I might sound elitist but I’m not. I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect everyone to be interested in tech, just like it’s not reasonable to, for example, expect everyone to be interested in cars. It just so happens that the tech industry is tightly connected to freedom, privacy, etc. while the car industry is not)
Polish (my native language) and english (duh). I also want to learn lojban for fun, but I keep procrastinating
