xD just blocked the spammer and all his comments disappeared. Imagine working so hard to spam and it takes 2s to for someone to hide your posts.

I wouldn't want to sully my repo with something as useful as a gitignore.

My code is so ~~bad~~ good, GitHub thinks I've uploaded an API key.

 

I am the Anti-Rust programmer, I will call other code in Rust. I will call other code in Rust because it is coding is hard. As I am the Anti-Rust programmer, I will keep writing rust until my computer breaks, I will not use proper coding practices. Because I am the Anti-Rust programmer, my computer will be unstable and crash.

I will come to you when you are sleeping, and include random malloc(s) in your code. If I find javascript on your computer, I will use implicit type conversion. Do not try to stop me, if you try to stop me, I will do it anyways. I am the Anti-Rust programmer. If you program in javascript. You will be fine :).

You will be sleeping as I rewrite your computer. You will not notice me as I am the Anti-Rust programmer. I am slow, but I will make your computer slower. I understand your computer, as it doesn't understand me. After I rewrite your computer, you will hate your computer. You will hate your computer because it is unstable and crashes. I will do the same to all computers because I am the anti-rust programmer.

I will not stop at your computer. I will rewrite the world because I can. Your brain is written using good programming practices. If your brain is written using good programming practices, you will hate what I do. I will rewrite your brain. You cannot stop me from linking different languages together, as I am the anti rust programmer. After I rewrite you, you will enjoy constant memory leaks. You will forget everything all the time. I am the anti rust programmer.

I will rewrite the world. I will rewrite quantum mechanics because I can. I will not tell you all my plans before I rewrite you. It is because you are perfectly normal and will hate my changes. I am the anti rust programmer. You will forget me because you are full of memory leaks.

What does the addon do?

Ah! the classic "Turn it off and on again (but for real this time)". Works every time.

Can't you just build from source of you want it? Like kde has pretty good docs for this.

Okay this has made it so much worse. i figured that the s in https and ftps stands for secure like a reasonable person. of course it doesnt xD. you would think that this is at least consistent but alas. guess what s in ssh doesnt stand for :)

[–] blotz@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (3 children)

what! thats so dumb xD. so ftps stands for file transfer protocol secure, and sftp stands for ssh file transfer protocol? we have reached recursive acronyms.

Nemo/most file explorers have a remote server option. For nemo, "Files > Connect to server". Once configured, you should be able to view your server files from your file explorer and uploading files should be as easy as drag and drop. I'm pretty sure nautilis has something similar too!

It's not the best for security because if someone gets your computer, they can access your server through the file explorer. But it's fast and convenient if you are already using your file explorer.

Okay but can cat have a lil salami? As a treat?

 
// At this point, I'd like to take a moment to speak to you about the Adobe PSD 
// PSD is not a good format. PSD is not even a bad format. Calling it such would be an
// insult to other bad formats, such as PCX or JPEG. No, PSD is an abysmal format. Having
// worked on this code for several weeks now, my hate for PSD has grown to a raging fire
// that burns with the fierce passion of a million suns.
// If there are two different ways of doing something, PSD will do both, in different
// places. It will then make up three more ways no sane human would think of, and do those
// too. PSD makes inconsistency an art form. Why, for instance, did it suddenly decide
// that *these* particular chunks should be aligned to four bytes, and that this alignement
// should *not* be included in the size? Other chunks in other places are either unaligned,
// or aligned with the alignment included in the size. Here, though, it is not included.
// Either one of these three behaviours would be fine. A sane format would pick one. PSD,
// of course, uses all three, and more.
// Trying to get data out of a PSD file is like trying to find something in the attic of
// your eccentric old uncle who died in a freak freshwater shark attack on his 58th
// birthday. That last detail may not be important for the purposes of the simile, but
// at this point I am spending a lot of time imagining amusing fates for the people
// responsible for this Rube Goldberg of a file format.
// Earlier, I tried to get a hold of the latest specs for the PSD file format. To do this,
// I had to apply to them for permission to apply to them to have them consider sending
// me this sacred tome. This would have involved faxing them a copy of some document or
// other, probably signed in blood. I can only imagine that they make this process so
// difficult because they are intensely ashamed of having created this abomination. I
// was naturally not gullible enough to go through with this procedure, but if I had done
// so, I would have printed out every single page of the spec, and set them all on fire.
// Were it within my power, I would gather every single copy of those specs, and launch
// them on a spaceship directly into the sun.
//
// PSD is not my favourite file format.
 

Is there a way to directly support boost without going through Google play? If not, that's okay as well.

 

I'm between distros and looking for a new daily driver for my laptop. What are people daily driving these days? Are there any new cool things to try?

I have been using linux mint recently. I have used nixos and arch in the past. Personally, linux mint uses flatpacks too much for my liking. Although, I might have a warped perspective after using arch. (the aur is crazy big)

 

All the normal websites have subscriptions and make it a nightmare to print off. I tried looking elsewhere but no where seams to do tabs. Am I missing something obvious?

 

Does anyone run their own Lemmy instance on a pi? How was the process of setting it up? Were there any pitfalls? How is performance?
