One time I got downvoted to oblivion and then followed and harassed for saying that employers shouldn't be allowed to drug test for thc.. In r/lsd of all places. I still don't know what that was about. Did I accidently trigger the "everyone dogpile this guy" bot algorithm, maybe in a different comment? Do lsd users just think they're better than everyone else just because past use of lsd can't really be drug tested for? This happened like a year ago and I'm still dumbfounded.

Visual studio code. There's nothing else that's anywhere near as good that doesn't cost money. Those annoying terminal text editors just don't do it for me. I need code autocomplete and do not understand how there exist people who have the patience to get by without it. I do not have the time to be switching tabs 20 times a second because I can't remember function parameter overloads. That intellisense autocomplete is just too good.

I'm poor and I hate stupid bullshit. The only way to personalize ads for me is to make them go away.

Pretty soon you'll be required to get one of these as a condition of employment. Just watch.

The Lemmy.world server runs on a 16mhz 386dx and has 16mb of ram. It just does that sometimes.

We should harass the fuck out of this guy until he removes it. This shit is completely uncalled for.

The thing is that Boost was a really good 3rd party reddit app. It was very stable and had a lot of attention to detail and quality of life things you don't notice until it's gone.

If Boost really is going to come to Lemmy and be in the same or similar level of quality as it was on reddit, it's going to be awesome.

The "dead" platforms still exist it just that they've undergone unacceptable amounts of corporate enshitification.

C# is a useful object oriented programming language. You can generally do the same stuff as you can in C++ but as a game modder there is 1 huge advantage C# has over C++ and that's the way it handles include path orders, or it's lack thereof.

I actually typed out and described a scenario where this starts messing things up but it was quite verbose. But the tl;dr is that it's possible to get stuck in a situation where you have circular include dependencies (kind of like how circular dependencies screw you over really hard in Linux package managers sometimes). If you planned the structure of your code really really well this shouldn't be too big of a problem but if you're extending something that is both complicated and wasn't meant to be extended upon, it starts becoming a problem.

C# doesn't really have this problem because instead of including header files, it does that "using blahblahblah;" business which doesn't run into include order problems.

C# is "open source" but it was invented by Microsoft and is hard to use without dealing with Microsoft. I don't want to contribute to the agenda of proprietary software in any capacity so I make all my projects in C++. C++ is very powerful but for certain gaming-oriented use cases, while it is the best choice most of the time it's not the best choice all the time.

How do I use C# in a responsible and open-source way? Do I just have to avoid using visual studio? I don't own a single Windows or Mac computer that actually boots up. Do I avoid dotnet framework? Do I have to avoid everything dotnet? What about Net Core?

Typing g## into a terminal window isn't a thing so what's the FOSS way to use C#?

Yeah why the fuck is that? VSCode has no business being as good as it is. It's developed by Microsoft, after all. Are they planning to take it away from us and charge money for it in a few years? Why does it work on Linux so easily? Is it a government conspiracy to fill our brains with subliminal messages somehow? Wtf is the catch?

My best educated guess is that's it's a ploy of some kind. If Microsoft makes a free code editor that's really good, maybe no one will make a free open source one that's as good so that they will have control over the 1 most viable code editor? There are other things similar to VSCode but they cost money and are too big a pain to pirate because VSCode is better than them anyway.

I'm more active here. You can actually post comments without idiots being toxic about it for no reason. You can actually make posts without them getting removed for no reason. It's great.

OK guys I just got out of my 2 day ban for "trolling". All I did was make post on here and it wasn't even the type of thing that would get you in trouble for posting it on reddit. This is unacceptable. The goal of this place is to be as much like shitty ask reddit as possible. Lemmy.ml apparently doesn't like shitposting so we need to move somewhere with better rules.

Any ideas on where we should go? By default, I'm going to go with beehaw maybe but idk.

All desktop managers have pros and cons. Cinnamon's biggest issue for me is the "save as" window. To get to it, go somewhere such as a web browser, right click on something and do "save as". Now try to name that file anything other than what was already in the filename textbox. It won't let you. You click on the box to position your cursor, type 1 character and it immediately forces your context focus into the search bar for searching for files in the directory. Clicking the box again, type 1 character and it forces your context focus and cursor into the stupid useless fucking search bar again. I can only rename files by bringing up a text editor, typing what I want and then pasting it into the save as name box.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Android 12 fucking sucks. There's this new "feature" where you can no longer go into app defaults and manually define what urls can be opened by which apps. There are "verified links" now which means nothing other than your browser gets to open shit.

When someone posts a link to a lemmy url, that means I can never open it in jeroba. It always opens in my web browser. This significantly reduces the overall usability of the app.

Is there any way around this? I'm one of the lucky few to have an unlocked bootloader phone so maybe I can get an older rom but I wish there was another way.

People are always saying stuff like "I don't give a fuck" but, like, what if you did give a fuck? How much would that really cost you? What exactly is the monetary value of 1 fuck?

Personally, I like pissing in sinks but it can be great fun to piss on other people's cars.
