Both parties.

No evangelizing

It’s supposed to be a reply to an existing conversation.

That’s just an inherent consequence of open source, people can make multiple versions of the same thing, and you can’t force distro maintainers to ship all the same tools. It’s not worth complaining about, and beginners need this explained to them that with choice, comes… well, choice.

Me too. Every once in awhile I have to remind myself that it’s not my fault that Lenovo decided to plaster a windows logo on that key. Realistically, that’s everybody’s key, and it was unfair of Microsoft to do that to us in the first place

My terminal is pretty, fancy, a nice to use. I’m not sure, you might be using the default LXDE terminal or something like that, but some people take the time to make their terminal enjoyable.

The trick is to build a massive history file and let auto complete use it for parts.

Why not?

I thought it was. What a missed opportunity.

That’s different. Lenovo supports the kernel, but doesn’t ship some laptops with Linux. Two of mine (P14s Gen 1 and Gen 4) don’t. I always have to work for NixOS, as does my friend for Arch.

My grandma thought it was a duopoly until I explained that clouds are made of penguins.

Can I ask why? You’ve witnessed public opinion about it, and don’t care. Why?

I haven’t seen RMS defined anywhere in these threads

The one you make yourself

It has by far the most broken type system which is basically a facade for the programmer to feel safe

Unity is trash and I'll just leave that alone.

Using Rust for a game engine with wgpu, unless you already know Rust intimately and have used the Vulkan API before, is going to be difficult for you. I recommend you give it a try, but last I checked wgpu expected you to be familiar with Vulkan and is missing comments on most crate types and functions.

You might have better luck with something like macroquad or miniquad, but you'll probably hit a wall and realize you want to do something that the developer didn't think to expose an API to make possible. You're also on your own for sound. Bevy has many components and I know it's popular, but I don't know if it has rendering. Maybe macroquad is the missing piece? Oh, and then text rendering. That's a tough one.

I recommend a couple options: browse lib.rs or AreWeGameYet for game engines that aim to provide a complete package.

For non-rust, recently Relogic gave a bunch of money to Godot and FNA, so I would check those out. That's going to be your quickest start (towards minimalism and performance) that isn't unity.

But they continue to complain instead of learn to adapt. I have a friend who needs help every week and I told him I am charging for windows help from here on because this is stupid.

What’s your counterargument when I mention that technology creates jobs and specialty positions? Especially for autistic people.

Me too!

You did get me there.

On the other hand, you can make identification difficult.

Use a root app that disables all network hardware while the device is locked, and randomize your MAC on public networks. Also use a carrier (if available) that purports to be ethical.

There are various issues with my statements: your SIM identifies you, there are ways to identify people across different networks even if their MAC is randomized, and even “ethical” carriers still use towers from other providers, which can of course triangulate your position.

That said though, if you take the proper precautions using a smart phone would be no worse than a flip phone.
