  • "Quitting your job to make games" is just like quitting your job to write your novel

    I think it's actually worse since you can't directly make money from the game while making it. You can stream for example, but it requires a completely different skillset.

    Compare that to, for example, writers releasing chapters on royal road, getting some funding through patreon while writing (in return for advanced chapters), and quitting their jobs when the book sales pick up. Like yeah it's still really hard to make good money, but the possibility of slowly progressing into full time writing is why people can try to do it.

  • Don't forget the built in tamper, it's the best thing about them.

    On the other hand their flints are absolute crap. They pretty much never last a full tank, while a bic flint lasts long after it's out of gas.

    The metal torch clipper is pretty awesome though.

  • On Linux, you have to be running Gnome or KDE.

    I've used it without those issues on cinnamon, xfce, and a variety of of tiling WMs. It fails to connect sometimes, but that happens on KDE as well, and I most certainly didn't need to reauth every time I connect to the network. So idk what you're talking about.

  • Don't know about the others, but KDE connect has absolutely nothing to do with your ISP. It's using WiFi for wlan, not to connect to the internet.

  • It's wild how you went from shipping plastic wrapped cucumbers across the world while exporting local ones, to your bougie bs...

    We get it, you're a spoiled first worlder

  • wouldn’t it be better to do it on our own terms rather than in a global catastrophe?

    The catastrophy is inevitable, it's just a question of whether any humans will survive.

    For example CO2 has a delayed effect of ~40years (if I remember correctly). The effects of global warming are very much obvious now, but the yearly output hasn't at any point dropped to those levels since.

  • Transportation of goods is mostly a capitalist issue. You don't need to cover a cucumber with plastic and ship it half way across the world, while selling the local ones to richer countries. The same goes for the vast majority of "goods". Remove all of that greedy, superfluous shit, and you're left with minimal shipping needs.

  • Meanwhile the USA possibly spent almost a bil on training camps in Pakistan, and who knows how much on the Pakistani ISI.

  • Remind me, who spent billions funding and training the Taliban?

  • Prehistoric predators may have been stronger than us

  • Yeah, I can paint your ceiling

    Takes money, builds a house, and hides from the pope

    Pope finds him, and forces him to paint until he goes blind

  • Address not found.

    Also, it doesn't change the fact you're depending on some random person's repo that is not moderated in any way.

  • I didn't like using AUR when I ran arch, let alone some random repo with absolutely no oversight.

  • Also, I can unterstand if companies are hating it which just want to have a free ride and monetize efforts of other people. But for users, there are many many other options and distributions available. Why not chose one that matches your need better?

    Why get mad about people comparing nix and guix, in a thread comparing nix and guix? Pointing out legitimate disadvantages is not hating. Maybe get off the internet for a bit and touch grass.

    It has top-priority goals like reproducibility, capability to inspect and verify all source code, and providing a fully free system that is not compatible with providing nonfree binary blobs.

    So does nix, nobody is forcing you to opt-in into non-free packages. And guix most certainly is compatible with non-free blobs, as that's how most people are using it. The only difference is that nix is supporting non-free packages instead of banning even talking about them.

  • Guix channels are just git repos with lists of package definitions. You need to manually add non-official repos, and all git contribution controls apply.

    Edit: non-official repos are closer to Ubuntu PPA-s. Don't really see how they relate to AUR apart from being user generated.

  • Hell, they literally had to invent "whiteness and blackness" as racial constructs to justify continuing to enslave the African slaves that converted to Christianity.

    That move is a lot older than the colonisation of Americas. There's a reason why westerners don't consider Slavs white, and it's connected to the etymology of the word "slave".

  • Wat?
