yeah, some of the budget goes to what looks like maintaining infrastructure that other projects use (i assume). but the 12% AI and 4% blockchain are pretty indefensible…

if you want to launch a thing from X/wayland, maybe consider getting a run box. there are plenty of options. your desktop environment may already have one.

ion3 (notion since the original project got abandoned) for a wm, but really, just terminals and a browser, in a tiling wm. when i say the UI is better, i mean the shell. with all its warts, it’s still ahead of everything else ever made.

the UI is incomparably better.

win98SE was extremely shit, so a friend installed debian for me and i never looked back

oh yeah. and zoom eats up an entire god damned core minimum. jumps to two entire cores occasionally.

you do if you use eg a jetbrains IDE and your codebase is all dockerized and requires 34 separate containers to be running and also the company makes you install a “security” software that constantly scans every fucking file on the machine…

what’s wrong with irssi?

pff, i aint reading all that, lemme optimize it:

private bool isEven(int number) {
    return rand() < 0.5;
}

you can have compose in the linux console too. an actually ergonomic choice is caps lock i think, because really, what is caps lock even for…

no, i think azerty takes the absolute cake, but the german layout is also dogshit. it’s qwertz for one, which is shit. and the placement of { [ ] } are absurd.

and it’s not necessary that these languages have shit layouts. look at the polish programmer’s layout, that’s a sane way to add extra letters.

i dont think boromir ever said that though, this is from that mess made by that B-horror director

i guess some people like being under pressure? i dunno

yeah, i was really tired of win98SE when i switched to linux. just entirely over it.

it’s always been obvious to me that we need something to fill the gap between awk and sql, but please please not excel. please. among the 8 billion people on earth, someone has to have a better idea

but why not just use ext4, which isnt buggy?

pff no, they ask you how sorting works and then put you to work using sql’s ORDER BY. at that point, why ask?

vim will load some other rc file if it cant find your ~/.vimrc. check what it has loaded with :scriptnames

also, try starting vim in a brand new terminal with vim -u NONE and check if it’s still happening.

linux must go
who must go?
