Yeah, it's very unfortunate, but I still have hope that things will get better. Even though the African Union is a mess, there's lots of good stuff happening despite all the meddling from foreign nations. Africa is a region in hard-mode because of all the resources they have that everyone wants. It is my firm belief that it won't continue forever. With better education and diaspora returning, things are changing.

Hey, he is right. He reason why so many places are dependent on US tech is simply because it's there and it works. Remove that and those places will suddenly innovate to what they had and more.

Trump and his people thought it would cripple China to isolate them, and that Europe would just accept their position as a vassal of a belligerent state. Look at what's happening now: China is making their own chips, poaching talent and also has their own humungous pool of talent that is now dedicated to developing alternatives instead of building on US tech. Europe is discovering opensource now. Africa and Asia are seeing China as more valuable trade partner and buying a lot more renewable energy and building their own industries free of US tech.

Pulling out of a market to focus on "MAGA" and America First" was strategic mistake, but we should all be glad they made it. The more competition, the better. If Europe also starts producing chips and Africa learns starts building processing their natural resources to multiply value, instead of selling it, consumers and businesses will have many choices. The US might face actual competition on every front.

if you like C++, you dont know it well enough

Or you are a masochist and just used to the abuse.

The video isn't humorous, it's dead serious. C++ is terrible language.

But but but, I really did get banned for saying puppies are cute *holds hat in hands and makes big eyes*

Linus installed popOS at a friggin LAN, under pressure, and was rushing to get stuff working then got bent out of shape by comments on protondb about how to get his game to work. His colleagues sat at home, with all the time in the world to figure stuff out and were pleasantly surprised by their experience.

Linux has issues for sure, I run into them daily, but there's a big difference in giving it a fair shot and saying "could've happened on Windows" and making a video as it only happens on Linux. If Linux came on hardware by default, and people had no idea it was Linux, they'd be complaining about their computer, just like people complain about Windows. Linus acts like everything is a Linux issue whenany things are just computer issues you get used to.

Trump is just hitting one home run after another. Best president ever. We need another one like him after his term ends to really dedollarise and go Green.

I'd sign and send an email for sure.

"Every electric car is Tesla" fallacy

And there are many more reasons to leave Microslop Github

No new gadgets or PCs in 2026. Hold the line.

Soldiers locations have been exposed om the battlefield by dating apps. Yeah, the army doesn't screen shit.

Release the Epstein files!

Is this a comment I'm not flake enough to understand?

We are a weir bunch, programmers, aren't we? We have entire movies about inanimate objects that we get extremely worked up about.

Written with a lot of help by an AI. I'm not knocking it and it has been asked for for a long time. Maybe AI ain't that bad after all?

Regardless, not a feature I'll use, but it's cool that somebody implemented something sought after by many.

Done :) I don't know how many NixOS users are in the community, but maybe it'll be useful to someone.

I just did. Ee zed pee zed

I use LogSeq. It's nice, but it's basically a local app in a browser (electron), written in an (to me) obscure language. I have been on the look out for a more native alternative with similar features that doesn't look like crap. So far, LogSeq is here to stay.
