Now that’s what I call… Hard evidence.

I’ll show myself the exit

Say it with me: KDE neon is a testing ground; there is a reason people work on KDE Linux; Ubuntu LTS itself is already a frequent source of problems; KDE killed LTS releases for pretty much the same reason - backporting stuff sucks.

So far they have only made me more gay

KDE Plasma, well known for its very limited customisation options

The nice thing about GNOME is that you immediately get it, on a fundamental level that is. The not so nice thing is that lots of stuff is an add-on, and it’s entirely possible installing the wrong one will brick your desktop

You are right, it’s more like zombieware. No noteworthy DE wants to support it anymore, yet is has not been dropped completely

X11 is dead, stop wasting time on it

Wait till you realise the size of SSD sectors

Afaik most people who seriously want to have a local LLM start of off a pre-trained one from the internet…?

There is no such thing as a feature that doesn’t need documentation. Anyone who thinks so is asking everyone else not to use it

Because companies give zero fucks. They will tell you they need tons of IT people, when in reality they want tons of underpaid programmers. They want stuff as fast and cheap as possible. What doesn’t cause immediate trouble is usually good enough. What can be patched up somehow is kept running, even when it only leads you further up the cliff you will fall off eventually.

Management is sometimes completely clueless. They rather hire twice as many people to keep some poorly developed app running, than to invest in a new, better developed app, that requires less maintenance and provides a better user experience. Zero risk tolerance and zero foresight.

It still generates money, you keep it running. Any means are fine.

You need to use as many different formats as possible, otherwise you look unprofessional

It’s because we are depressed nihilists who have given up on pretty much everything, running on gallows homour to a point where we are meming youth slang. Don’t worry, we’re fine haha… Ha…

I feel like these memes have to (mainly) stem from badly documented or broken libraries. The only times where I don’t understand what I’m doing are when I try to figure out what someone else is doing

In bigger projects, you tend to miss type safety really bad, really fast. Rust has it built in, Python can have it bolted on. That’s simply one of the many aspects to consider when choosing your programming language.

But don’t worry about it too much. If one thing’s for sure, it’s that you will regret that choice in any case.

With so much tech laying around I’m already surprised you own pants lol
