@RomulusCornflakes It’s black like an anarchist flag.
@doomsdayrs Money is just one of the issues. You’d have to leave everything and, more importantly, everyone you know, your whole social context, behind.
It’s not easy to do, especially when you’re an adult with friends, family, romantic partners and responsibilities. You can’t just pack them all up with you, as they have the same problem, just one level down. And if you don’t have the means to travel frequently from one country to another, you might just as well leave for another planet. Sure, electronic communication exists, but it’s not a substitute.
@doomsdayrs “just leave your country” is kinda privilege talk. Not everyone can do this. And it’s not even always about money.
@gerryflap Have you ever considered a career of a QA engineer?
@avidamoeba Well, at least you solve them wholesale.
@ranzispa me be like
@bernhoftbret You forgot systemd


@Kalcifer Epic!
@MimicJar Yeah. Exactly. Motherfucker, I shovel a lot of files around, can’t you update in background? Run a lil daemon, may be? That uses inotify to catch new files? No?


@Maroon I thought torrent technology to be a godsend for package managers.
Why none of them use it?
I mean, damn.


@TheReanuKeeves 25.
Old enough to be an adult, but your body hasn’t started to disintegrate yet.


> Some people get turned on seeing topless men
If someone sees my torso and gets aroused, why is it my problem? Moreover, why is this even a problem at all?
You get hots from other people? Congratulations, you’re human.
All of this is such a non-issue. And it’s just to keep women down.


@Natanox Seems like NixOS replaced Arch as both a local extremist cult and the most effective newbie repellent.


@arsCynic see also: there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism.


@arsCynic Newsflash: any currency under the Sun works like that. And stocks. And options. And any other form of speculative wealth.
And most of wealth on Earth is just that - speculative. The gold standard was abolished long time ago, and, some might say it’s for the better. Look it up.
Yeah, that paper in your pocket isn’t based on anything tangible. It’s just paper we agree is valuable. It’s not real in the same way a knife is.
Crypto is just a little bit more open about it. It’s just lines of math we agree are valuable.
And scams have existed in traditional currencies long before cryptocurrency. Same as currency trading, aka “encouraging you to buy more if it”.
So, if you want to hate on anything, hate on a concept of currency and speculative wealth in general. Cryptocurrency is just the latest form of it.
And, frankly, it’s just useful for avoiding unfair shit like international sanctions aka some fat cats deciding to bar me from donating or receiving funds
@Dogiedog64 Yeah. There was a time when Nvidia did their damnedest to make Nouveau developers’ life a living hell.
@Allero Not if it’s hardware-accelerated. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a CPU without hardware virtualization, though.
