But if they don’t suffer, why would they kill them?

The whole thing is just some barbaric revenge cult.

You should use Arch, btw

Part of being a developer is solving your problems and reduce complexity in a very complex field. So I guess when you want to be a good dev, most of that is part of your learning experience.

To your skills. I may suggest do what you like to do. Wanna tinker with Linux and systems? C/C++ or Rust may be a good start. Webdev? Have a look at typescript. Or just do some stuff in python (it’s really fun)

If you do not know what you like. No problem, just play around with stuff and find out what you like.

If you get stuck on something, THEN is moment to reach out for help. You hardly will have to pay for advice, there is always a helpful hand if you can describe what your problem is.

I am from Berlin Germany. Just looked it up and no. The main grid is 100% free from lead.

Edit: may be a German thing. We value tab water really high. The quality standards are higher than from bottled water.

you Americans have … what?

What’s next? Asbestos in your toilet paper?

That’s the main reason Putin invests all that money into Trump and other far right party campaigns. As long the NATO plays the hunger game against him he and his country will choke on that bite.

If Trump is in the White House and half of Europe has to fight Nazi scums in their parliaments, Ukraine is down.

Apps looking odd or not is the job of the main drawing framework.

Qt themes are able to draw GTK but GTK can not draw Qt actually proves my point.

Switching the UI framework sounds like a massive refactor.

Qt is by far the better framework. This could also be a chance to implement a super UI/UX, it could also be a complexity hell. I will have a look at the project, let’s see if the outcome wil be a better product.

Sometimes is it worth to rethink the problem. Especially when your condition is based on set-members. Using quantor logic often simplifies the condition :

return 
    any(x for x in X if x==condition_a) 
    or all(y for y in Y if y==condition_b) 
    and all(x for x in X if x==condition_c)

I am not sure if JS has something similar, but this often helps by a lot

Ubuntu tries to be baught from Microsoft. They need one centralized (unfree) way of income to get money out of their customers. This is the reason for snap, their proprietary AppStore.

Tldr? Leave you fools. Leave!

The second one is very valid. Please do not waste my time without having a prove about your functionality.

I like your dad. Not taking things like who is sexual attractive too seriously may be a precious value in life

I mean you can (client side). But the protocol is agnostic of any encryption.

I would say there are two types of devs.

The HACKER MAN knowing everything, always have the only solution and being boss in their realm

The DAUBTER thinking they know too less, always searching for the best solution for the problem and trying to get as many information to solve the problem as possible

Even having the imposter syndrome as a big problem for mental health. I genuinely have the opinion it makes the better devs.

Xmpp is not encrypted. So sorry but without that, your sentence makes no sense at all.

Sabayon. It worked perfectly till I tried to update some stuff 💣

This was one the most stable and at the same time the most unstable distribution I ever tried.

I am genuinely sad about this. I has hoped for many years in prison for this man.

I will never understand parents looking into a face of a newborn baby thinking:

That’s a Dick!

For music: if (and that’s a big if) Spotify does not fuck that up they’ll have the majority of people off the harbours.

They deliver exactly what people asked for when it was common to pirate music. A monthly affordable fee, +90% of the music available and no advertising. If neither of these three variables are changing, there will be no big group pirating music anymore.
