@12bitfloat the choice is yours, but please, stop bullying her. Her life became hell of a lot worse after certain vaccine rendered a whole host of bad side effects that persist to this day.

My wife’s old mom uses ubuntu because that’s what came with her laptop. that’s all you need to know about desktop linux in 2020s

@Ranchonyx some don’t

added complexity to create more jobs

@Lensflare damn. started crying while writing this
-
@Lensflare when I hear a bad joke in person, I usually laugh my face off so hard that I can barely breathe, and while doing that, I become so grateful that I'm here, now, with people that aren't trying to kill me, and I had food today, oh, and a shower with running warm water, I'm not sick, I'm free to walk wherever I want at any time I want to
then I cry -
@12bitfloat I stopped hiding that my mind sometimes contradicts itself in around 2019 when I had an epiphany that yes, it's okay to have them, and the best way to live with them is to state them loud and clear instead of trying to mix what shouldn't be mixed.
I can totally see how someone can go from "my first school love broke my heart when I was 7" to incel rhetoric while trying to justify how they feel. -
@12bitfloat my rational side agrees, my emotional side wants revenge

@jestdotty communism sucks

@Lensflare scrypt has artificial complexity added to it so it can't be easily bruteforced. Think of modern framework-driven web development in the same way.
Its complexity is the only reason capitalists HAVE to hire more people. The complexity itself is genuine, that's the whole point, so webdevs that deal with it aren't frauds. -
we have to keep the complexity high to create jobs. That's the only reason frameworks exist.

@donkulator titanium bike frames bend and spring back like crazy. If you have a titanium frame, you don't really need any shock absorbers — the frame absorbs everything for you. Maybe this is why those spherical capsules in proper extreme depth subs like Alvin are made of titanium.

@BordedDev wha?
-
my god, Virgin Oceanic already tried carbon fiber subs and reached the same conclusion: the sub will get weaker every time it's used. THEY TOLD YOU
-
@TeachMeCode he used a Logitech controller! Also, this was literally the least of my concerns. Gaming controllers have decades of ergonomic research behind them, so if that's the familiar way for the operator to control stuff they pilot in a three-dimensional space, so be it! The more familiar the controls are to them, the better for me.
I know nothing about marine engineering. But I'm into bikes, so I know some stuff about carbon fiber. Carbon fiber does NOT do well against compression. When it cracks, it CANNOT be repaired reliably. That was all you needed to know. Compression is the single most important thing a submersible should handle. Also, it has to be checked and repaired if needed after every dive. Carbon fiber fails miserably in both departments. -
@Hazarth what's Mono?
-
@Lensflare it’s optional now, but we’ll need it for JS 2.0 that won’t be backwards compatible.
@CoreFusionX I agree on gotchas — at this point, I don’t make mistakes in JS. But JS 2.0 is still possible because DOM is not HTML. DOM is a way to interact with the document. I can totally see DOM 2.0 in JS 2.0 still working with the same document and the same HTML tags, all while being 100x faster and lighter because of dropping some old unused properties that slow the web down.
99% of all web UIs are rectangles with text and images arranged in a grid. Godot can render the same thing orders of magnitude faster, because godot doesn’t support all the convoluted properties of modern DOM -
@Lensflare actually, we have type attribute on script tags
<script type=“text/js2”> -
@Lensflare that’s the hard truth for all languages except those with lispy syntax
-
@Hazarth I say exactly that in the "grep is 51 years old" part.

@Alice my god. This place is VASTLY different now, way better, and I mean it. Female dev presence is on par with male. Mostly because everyone left lol

@Alice ALICE COME BACK WE NEED YOU
ALSO WHY GREEN DOT AND NOT PINK -
@jestdotty it is better in some areas, but is _actively_ worse in others. ChatGPT writes good python code, but if you ask it to fix something in linux, it will most definitely offer you some hacky things that outright don't work, while linux forums would've offered you good advice
GPT-4.5 is suspiciously good at fixing linux though. it's a shame that it's so expensive to use -
It's so weird hearing box cutter blade engaging sapphire and leaving a mark, just to later realize that it's not the blade that was scratching sapphire, it's sapphire and microquartz that were grinding away at the blade like a huge but very fine file. And the mark left was metal, so it wipes off without a trace.
-
Remember: Mohs scale works. Your phone's screen gets scratched by your keys inside your pocket because of how abundant quartz is. It's literally on every surface. It's harder than gorilla glass. It's in your pockets, embedded in the fabric of your pants.
But diamond doesn't care about quartz.
If you thoroughly clean everything, you can spend all day trying to scratch gorilla glass with your keys, to no avail. -
The answer is convex plate covered with synthetic disc diamonds sliding in the concave plate covered with the same kind of disc diamonds. Because literally everything on the ocean floor is softer than Mohs 10, the bearing will just grind everything that comes inside it and remain spotless. Also, no lubrication required for diamond-on-diamond action.

never ever ever. the only way I'll get into a relationship with a colleague is if we both leave the company and end up in different companies. otherwise it's highly unethical

@devJs I wanted a low profile one, but I have long fingernails, and it's easier to type on a high profile keyboard this way because I can fit a fingernail in between two keycaps when pressing a key
