Guess I’ll stay on a diet after this

Didn’t know that one, looks rad

Noo it was a joke XD

…but you can install it https://github.com/MrGlockenspiel/activate-linux

(though I believe they have an Ubuntu premium motd or something like that)

Hell yeah, SuperTuxKart

Can I use the Linux cracker to remove my Activate Ubuntu watermark?

Thanks I understand now, I’ll have to try it again

Firefox is my tab-hoarding enabler 😍

Does it kill Firefox if it tries to go over the limit? I think I tried this once and if there is a memory leak it just closes itself (which is batter than hogging the whole system, bit still)

Good luck! It can get complicated so I know how you feel looking at weird configurations that do magic

Thanks! Will have to come back to this

Real, happened too many times to me. What’s that about configuring the OOM, can you give it priorities?

Based, too bad it’s not as easy to find jobs to feed the family (me) with better languages usually simply by virtue of them being newer and having less adoption

Tell me about it, when the roles are reversed and nor the manager ex-dev nor the older dev care about good programming practices it’s a far west where the junior desperately tries to become the dictator of a ruleless country

Putting one directly under the home directory feels like a psychopathic move, so I stay by XDG and put them under a subdirectory of xdg-documents

Me waiting for tagging filesystems to become the standard

Don’t worry, the basics are really easy to git get down, you can read any beginner guide to start trying it out, for example this one on baeldung seems pretty alright by a quick skim, or, if you prefer a more playful approach, definitely check out ohmygit.
If you want to try a git hoster as well, make a GitHub profile if you want to go where most everyone is, so you can also easily contribute to others’ projects, otherwise, if you care about staying on a free platform, make an account on Codeberg, fewer people, but all great like-minded free software supporters

…or make one on both, ngl

That’s true, I don’t know how it could be described as a hard rule though

oh, I get it now

Yes, I feel like some kind of bell should ring in your brain when something needs to be commented, most often if you struggled to write out the solution or you had to do a lot of digging from various places to achieve the final resulting piece of code, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to pressure yourself into thinking you should comment everything, because some knowledge has to be assumed, nowadays you could even add that if someone completely extraneous to the codebase entered without any knowledge, they could feed the parts of code they need to understand into some LLM to get a feel for what they’re looking at, with further feedback from actual devs though, you never know what random bs they might write.
Good one on the variables to store results of expressions, I agree with that method, though I always forget to do that because I get so lost in the pride of writing that convoluted one-liner that I think, “oh yeah, this is perfectly beautiful and understandable 😇”, I have to check myself more on that.

complex portions in some of my projects that would appreciate similar simplification

So I’m not alone on that haha.

This is why […] better

Sorry, what’s the subject of that?

With that many Windows (gasp) ones, no… I’m afraid you are not
