They die anyway, they’re surviving on momentum, not on being the genuinely great service that’s actually better than pirating.

I must get into this Usenet thing one day. Though it all seems complicated.


If I haven’t cancelled Netflix already, I would right now. I cancelled Spotify for the same reason just last week (though in their case it might have been a mistake, but I don’t really expect such mistakes after increasing the cost twice a year).


Given that’s like half the reason people actually buy PCs in the first place? Probably not.


Sounds weird. I started pirating again because the companies are fucking greedy. So nothing they do will make me pay again, until they stop being so greedy - if they all consolidate into one streaming service for a price of like $10, I’ll probably stop pirating again, because at that point it’s easier to not pirate.


I hear Somalia also isn’t the best place to sail by.


Yeah, my disk’s not even full.
I use Nobara, btw.


So, where are the people who were telling me how it’s a move in the right direction?
Ah, we have a senior developer here!
doas mv /usr/bin/doas /usr/bin/sudo
Problem solved!


The biggest problem with Rust are its users. They somehow think that having a safe memory access means fewer bugs. While it only means fewer memory management related bugs. Which honestly isn’t even a problem with modern C++.


Yeah, if you hash your passwords with unsalted md5 it’s much more secure in Rust than PHP!


Oh yeah, I love playing with Linux phones. I once created a container, installed Proton bridge in it and enjoyed having my mails in the native phone app.
Linux Mint, lemmings.world, mastodon.social. I might be slightly biased with the Lemmy instance.
Yep, I use it everywhere, that’s why I said Nix and not NixOS. I even use it on the company Windows machine inside WSL.
Or just switch to Nix and finally witness some actually good package manager.


My mnemonic is a bit weird, purrent working directory. I know the term cwd (current working directory) but I never bothered to learn what the p stands for, so I named it myself as purrent.
Not a problem for me, I pay for VPN anyway.
