Oops, just noticed that I accidentally clicked wk tag 🙃

Sorry.

@AmyShackles yeah, but it hits different if you WORKED WITH THOSE FOR 5 DAMN MONTHS.

Hello!

I have no idea what did you take before writing this, but I want some too.

-connect+discord+m4tkq9-

@sariel I’m using macOS :>

I’ll tell you what.

[2/2] And that was Linux Mint - supposedly the most user friendly distro. The one designed to take on Windows. I could fix it, because I knew what I was doing. How is my dad supposed to fix such fuckup, after he followed system upgrade instructions?

@sariel [1/2] In that case it was my dad’s laptop with Linux Mint 19.3, which I tried to upgrade to 20.3. I followed the instructions online, only to find out that after the reboot, the DE wouldn’t load no matter what.
So because I really didn’t feel like finding out what’s up, I used Timeshift backup to restore last known configuration (I made a backup beforehand) - which nuked GRUB because I clicked “Yes” to “fix Grub”. So I downloaded Mint’s ISO, made bootable USB and booted off of that, mounted the HDD and ran grub-install. This fixed the grub.
Then it turned out that dependencies are damaged, DE was broken. So I figured “ffs, I’ll use Timeshift again” - this time I picked “no” to “fix Grub” - the Grub showed the same error after reboot.
So I start live ISO again, run the same commands, finally it all works (I hope).
Something that was supposed to take me 1 hour, took me 3 hours, which didn’t even lead me to the desired result.

@adhdeveloper @h3rp1d3v Just because one of them supposedly is “less bad”, doesn’t make it any good.

I would respond with “what idiot calls their variables ‘foo’ and ‘bar’ - he should not be allowed to even look at the repo”.

@xyn22 @electrineer You could say emojis are so 3000 B.C. - Egyptians already used them!

@tbjgolden Windows 11 is the reason why I switched to macOS. I installed Magnet and it’s perfect.

The uptime on my Pro is 16 days and I have no issues.

@jiraTicket I would agree with your argumentation - if we were talking about a small Silicon Valley startup. Not Microsoft corporation.

Even then, take Discord for example. While it also is a memory hog, and has its own fair share of issues, it does have a native ARM64 build. And it honestly doesn’t feel as slow as the Teams (although it’s still not a native app performance).

I think someone should show him the exit…

@jiraTicket I agree - then at least focus either on being as much of a cross platform hog, or focus on making it good for specific platform(s). As we speak, it is good at neither of those.

@Floydimus *looks at my MacBook*
Hmm…

Fuck Windows 11
All my homies hate Windows 11

@lambda123 Three-layer architecture is not cool anymore?

@Demolishun Yes, but from that you can certainly build up the quality of your craft.

@SoldierOfCode Oh I was also thinking Klingon or Esperanto.

@Lensflare yes! And no.

On my MB Pro 14”, there was a very known memory leak of WindowServer, caused by ProMotion and/or dynamic wallpapers.

But it seems like the latest updated have fixed it.

@Lensflare I really do not understand why they don’t prompt you with any confirmation that you want to do it (they did back in the Windows XP era!)

macOS does it. All Linux distros do it. Why Windows makes it so easy to miss click the power option?

@Lensflare because it’s not Chromium, and I get the best battery life of all browsers.

@Oktokolo Battery life.

@kwilliams but it’s C# 6.0 feature, which came out 7 years ago.

I bet there are children at this point, which know bits of C# and are younger than that feature.

@ZalnarT there is a winget now!

I’ll justify writing a “packet manager” by this kind of mistake fitting Borat.

@OmerFlame Firstly, I wouldn’t hide the avatar controls at all - in my opinion there is no point of doing that, as by default you are left with the huge empty black space under the avatar. Switching between categories is tedious in a way where to change the category, you first must swipe the thing up, click a very tiny (not even obvious) link to change it.

Here’s my proposition quickly made in Figma - inspired by Spotify’s “Your Library” section. A horizontally scrollable list of categories. The list of items is scrollable either vertically or horizontally.

@Oktokolo It was the shittiest morning so far, successful exam (I think) and relax now.

@darksideofyay Ah yes, I had a bad experience with plagiarism checks when writing my last report.

My paraphrasing of my interviewee’s answers were detected as plagiarism.
I had to remove any mentions of “COVID-19”, because otherwise they would be detected as a plagiarism too.
