Screenshots? Look at Mr. Speedy Pants over here!
In my experience, half the time it’s a bloody YouTube video. Nothing says “fun” like having to seek back around in a video to find the next step without waiting 20 extra seconds because you already had to seek back and pause the video after it breezed past an overcomplicated and poorly explained step.
You think that’s bad? For as much as I love seeing a well-configured Nix system, it’s beginner-unfriendly learning curve is almost as bad as “compile everything yourself” distros.
As a beginner, do you have a question about Nix? RTFM. You did? Well, wrong Nix. You wanted to learn something about Nix the language, but those docs were about Nix the OS and Nix the package manager.
You just read a guide for using the nix command and wanted to install a program with nix-env? That’s an outdated guide. You should be using flakes and nix profile. You tried that, but it said the nix command is experimental so you didn’t do it? No, you were supposed to edit /etc/nix/nix.conf to enable them first.
Don’t get me wrong here though, I like Nix. It just desperately needs an actual beginner-friendly beginner guide for flakes and nix command commands that doesn’t assume everyone is a software developer. 80% of the Nix documentation tutorials aren’t even relevant to regular users, only package maintainers and NixOS users.
Wait, there’s a difference between those two things?
Not at all surprizing. Spez thinks he’s an upcoming Elon-like genius and wants to surround himself with like-minded techbros, but he’s actually a massive Musk bootlicker.
I think you are wrong, but only in the you’re not thinking about the big picture.
Elon “I traced the DDOS to Ukrainian terrorists” Musk is in charge of this. Someone on Twitter (probably his alt) is going to post a conspiracy on Twitter about Ukrainian or Canadian hackers being behind it, and he’s going to retweet it with some plausibly deniable bullshit like “not far off,” and rally up his cult of reactionary prokaryots to demand a economic or military response. It’s yet another golden opportunity for the crony collective to sweep their own incompetence under the rug while simultaneously scapegoating another country to push their unspoken-but-obvious agenda.
I also wish it didn’t say that, but for entirely different reasons.
It’s an ad. Paid for by a foreign government. MAGA morons aren’t going to do much other than interpret it as Canada being scared and spreading lies, which obviously means it’s working and Trump is doing a tremendous bigly job making Canada “pay” the tariffs.
It might get some Republican Trump voters to actually attempt to understand the consequences of tariffs, but it’s going to empower the vocal cultists that live in disinformation la-la land.
To anyone with critical thinking skills, sure. Try convincing the morons who believe he’s not a disinformation superspreader about that, though.
now he’s just a step removed from screaming about gay frogs.
He wouldn’t. He’ll bring on an “expert” on “gay frogs” and start Just Asking Questions-ing off while pretending to disagree. Once Gay Frogs Gary is platformed and given some time to spout off shit, then he’ll start subtly agreeing and posing conspiratorial questions under the guise of continuing his JAQing off session.
I heard that Canadians are paying for billboards saying “tariffs are taxes on your groceries” in Republican states. It’s funny as hell, but it won’t work—people are either too uneducated to understand how higher import costs lead to higher downstream costs, or they’re too MAGA to even consider it.
Model 3K will be available next year. Using revolutionary new technologies, it will drive competitors out of town with its composite wood t-shaped suspension and high-density dihydrogen oxidization catalyst battery chemistry. Pre-orders are available today for the limited Grand Wiz edition.
The only thing cleaner is his conscience /s
Oh, are we “shredding” instead of “slamming” now? An even better idea: acting on it
It’s always the emoji that rile up the reactionaries…
Overwatch should be illegal in there anyway because of the “gay propaganda”
Good luck with that one. As long as Overwatch is free to play, they can just make new accounts with an EU VPN. No way to tie the account owner to their country of origin unless they fork over that info voluntarily, such as by having to make an online purchase.
Source? That would be useful for helping convince friends/family to switch to Linux and LibreOffice.
It shows they didn’t even watch the video.
Of course they didn’t. Musk fanboys are an echo chamber of morons worshipping a Nazi oligarch. They’re quick to react, and they dismiss evidence and facts if it doesn’t suit their narrative.
It also has remote access capabilities used exclusively by Putin, but people seem totally fine with that part because the jet was promised to only be used to hurt the right people.
Regex is great, but PCRE deserves a special place in hell. You don’t know unreadable until you’ve encountered regex that uses recursive matching, backrefererences, and subroutine calls.
Narcissism, ego, and wealth create one hell of a combination.
He wants to be worshipped by the masses, but he’s also the kind of person who needs to appear powerful and can’t stand being in any position but first. He has to be the richest person while also being the most adored, and he isn’t willing to sacrifice anything to achieve the latter.
We’re a crack house? Surrrrre.
Try crack house brothel of conservatism run by a megalomanical toddler, filled to the brim with weapons of mass destruction, and looking to expand into new territories. Then you’re right.
