Most make next to nothing and give up quickly. I don’t see the option to give up on being under surveillance.

Dio can you hear me, I am lost and so alone.
I’m asking for your guidance, won’t you come down from your throne?

I mean, yeah, he needs to get that new hairstyle ASAP.

In every fucking program ever it’s a single tool.

I barely use GIMP, but years ago I heard about it and gave it a go. It simultaneously opened three or four seemingly random windows and no actual workspace as far as I can tell. I immediately gave up. It wasn’t until recently that I had a reason to try again, and at this point I had forgotten the absurd situation I ran away from the first time. Luckily they’ve made some improvements since then. It’s still a bit obtuse, but I hear a big update is coming soon that might fix some of the UI issues?

I can’t name the last time I watched a YouTube video with 100M views. If it’s that popular it’s probably not something I’m interested in.

I feel like my tools should work together instead of having their parameters set individually. If I select something, it’s because I want to do stuff with it. Imagine hitting play on a video and then also having to hit play on the audio.

It’s basically the perfect rage-bait question, because everyone immediately has an answer based on their emotions and assumes everyone else interpreted the core question the same way.

Brutalism can go jump off a cliff.

It’s kinda a slur in the US in the sense that people claim it’s a slur, but I’ve never heard anyone actually use it that way.

A gimp is any of the following:

1. A cripple
2. A particular kind of BDSM role
3. Twisted silk, worsted, or cotton with cord or wire running through it, used chiefly as upholstery trimming.
4. (in lacemaking) coarser thread which forms the outline of the design in some techniques.
5. fishing line made of silk bound with wire.

The last three I got from the internet.

Because even people who worked in imperial recognized that dealing with stupid fractions is stupid.

Did you ever get everything working? I don’t have a Mac, I’m just curious.

It should be legal to hunt that person down and clamp a lobster to their nipples.

In my personal experience, whenever I’ve needed help, people have been nice and tried to help. But, my questions usually include as much context and details as I can give and even my own guess as to what’s going on, if I have one. I try to make my requests for help as enticing as I can. “I didn’t do anything and now my computer is broken” isn’t a very interesting or scrutable request for help, so I can understand the frustration volunteers get when repeatedly faced with those kinds of questions.

I also feel like some parts of the community might be starting to recognize that, if we want Linux to become mainstream, it has to be absurdly idiot-proof and friendly to newcomers. Afterall, the vast majority of people don’t want their computer to be their hobby, they just want it to facilitate other things.

Hit me! I’ll probably fail, but I wanna try and help anyway.

They’re around here somewhere…

Eating some yogurt

It’s a pretty neutral face, the fact that people are arguing over it is kinda evidence for that.

They are called tiles. I think that’s the official name, anyway.
