Debbie does Dallas would’ve been a rather mediocre high school drama without the sex scenes.

socially he’s not terrible but when the war drums come beating he’s stepping in line for the stars and stripes

Like pretty much every Finn would these days, really.

Not sure if being against Russian aggression can be called a “political belief” as nearly all Finns pretty much agree on it.

I’m not sure if you’re kidding, so I’ll just note that Finland and Iceland are NATO member states, and Finland is notoriously against Russian aggressions due to history.

Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency

Yeah that’s a good one. Especially the first season, but the second ain’t bad either.

Yes and it’s awesome.

• Frieren was awesome but it’s so fresh I’m not absolutely sure it’ll keep being that

• Severance season 1 (follow-up seasons upcoming, not sure if they can keep up with the extremely high quality of S1)

• True Detective season 1

• Madoka was great, thanks to tight storytelling and the best soundtrack I’ve ever heard

• Kino’s Journey – somewhat similar to Frieren but 20 years prior

• Chernobyl (2019)

• Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog

• Firefly

• Twin Peaks, especially seasons 1 and 3, but season 2 and the movie might be needed to fully appreciate

It’s like a good C++ that is actually able to replace it. There are lots of places where a good C++ is useful. Like everything that needs low latency and low resource usage.

But it’s not an easy language, so (I’m guessing) people who see everyone loving it but are unable to learn it start to suffer some sort of cognitive dissonance. If it’s too difficult for me to learn, that must be its fault, not mine.

I have been using X11 since 1996, and I never felt that it was very good. Sure, at the start it was better the then state-of-the-art desktop (Windows 95), mostly thanks to Linux, but that advantage went away in 2001 when OS/X was released. And even Windows went past it at some point, perhaps around Windows 7 or 8.

Wayland took a long time to get there, but it definitely is there today.

PHP is Russian. Used to be huge, caused lots of problems, now slowly dwindling away. Its supporters keep saying how it’s still better than the competition.

I’m not terribly against stealing money from maga dumb idiots with too much money.

Fuck, that’s horrible. And this woman consistently manages to drive hundreds of thousands of votes from the Democrat candidate.

Element X is a completely different beast though. Not only is it a successful Rust rewrite, but they also fixed the system architecture of Matrix to improve speeds. They haven’t matched Telegram’s usability though, but they’re close to Signal’s.

Good ol’ Rust Rewrite fixing everything.

I didn’t know we need to regulate Elon Musk’s platforms. Now I do!

I tried Pop!_OS alpha1 with Cosmic Desktop and I even if the general software quality is still what you might expect from the first alpha release, I was impressed on the high-level design decisions they made with Cosmic. As a sway user who would like a bit more structure and hand-holding in my desktop, I think I’m gonna like Cosmic in a year’s time.

France can probably already give them all the channel logs decrypted, like Russia has been able to since June 19, 2020. It took them too long to get there, but at least they finally did.

Just keep Pip away from any cellphones. He goes crazy with them.

I wonder how many bytes were spent sending these three words to my screen.
