thank you mr jackpots
hey its me the guy you predicted would tell you the thing you said i would tell you
the reason people say neofetch is useless is because the information it gives you is not very detailed when compared to something like inxi for example
corporation yet again proving that if you want to be free to use your own things that you paid for on your own computer you can never trust anything that requires an internet connection to not trample all over your rights
love it very cool really vibing with the current state of software and the internet
There’s not enough of us, but I still don’t care. I refuse to pay to watch ads.
i had this conversation with my dad recently about how shitty everything is now with ads etc, and his response boiled down to “i don’t care enough”. sucks to see people being complacent in being subject to greedy corporate whims. as much as i want people with that mindset to care, i have no idea how to effectively argue against “i don’t care”.
shower tas incoming
this could be a double edged sword - do not go for shampoo skip the timesave is not worth
and thats the power of linux baby hell yeah
can i just say that i love seeing the ubuntu font in memes and gifs and shit all over the place now
they really love doing that. around when i went vegan someone i know was asking me about it and then stopped talking to me entirely because i “bring up veganism too much” after like 2 conversations that i did not initiate.
meanwhile you literally cannot escape meat eaters either talking about how much they love meat or condemning imaginary people who are trying to make them eat bugs or something and conflating that with veganism, yet vegans are annoying.
just beat a difficult game about climbing and i loved it! it’s the only other game in the genre that has risen to the heights of getting over it in terms of gameplay mechanics and level design.
if anyone reading this knows about a community for these types of games (foddian? getting over it-likes?), please send it my way. i love these games to bits and have so much to say about them but to my knowledge basically no one cares about these games outside of watching people on twitch get angry at them.
looking forward to playing return of the obra dinn, then i’ll probably start speedrunning the climbing game until baby steps releases lol
i bet you aren’t even certified to run that nuclear reactor in your base, probably isn’t even up to code
its more about treating dead (and living) animals as a commodity for me personally. you probably wouldn’t want someone to turn your corpse into a fucked up teddy bear for a laugh.
yeah it’s hard to meme about my nether chest full of rats when reddit still has all the polytetrafluoroethylene smh
that’s a good point - i might be letting my dislike for discord-as-a-wiki color my argument. i will say that i’ve had mixed results using the search - sometimes there are no results and sometimes there are plenty of irrelevant results. that’s just what you get when basically hitting ctrl+f on who-knows-how-long worth of conversations instead of a purpose-made knowledge base.
i still think that a dedicated wiki/forum/repo available on the web for anyone with the url is far better suited to this purpose than discord is. discord is (arguably) good at being a chat app and its features aren’t well tailored to being an easily navigable knowledge base. it feels like jumping through unnecessary hoops to have to join a server on the app i use to share memes with my college roommates to get help troubleshooting some software, or worse, to get access to the only official release of the software.
i can understand your point of technical support, but what the op is calling out is when the only source of docs/support are discord.
i’ve had multiple experiences firsthand where I needed basic information about a piece of software that really should have just been on a readme or a wiki or something. instead my only option was to repeatedly ask a discord tech support channel and wait for someone who cares/knows about my question to actually answer me.
unless the options are limited, i’d rather simply pick a different solution than be forced to ask a busy discord channel for tech support.
you can’t honestly be saying that there are no issues with hosting documentation/support for a project exclusively on discord as opposed to a classic forum or wiki.
even ignoring the issues that you are dismissing (and would not exist on a better suited platform), the people using the discord server do not own it. discord servers have no backup functionality. what happens when an admin goes rogue or gets hacked etc? what happens when people get tired of discord for the next chat app?
you shouldn’t have to use a burner email to download a videogame mod or view documentation for an open source project.
anything with turn-based combat as a core mechanic is an instant skip, nothing else about the game matters
thank you for posting that here! love your stuff and wouldn’t have found it otherwise.
while funny, the accolades you listed aren’t enough for billy to be elected - clearly he isn’t that great a conman!
omg bestie
