It was a tongue in cheek joke.

That explains the state of the society I guess

Tired of the constant pop ups in windows 10. The constant upselling of their product.

An OS shouldn’t get in the way of what you are doing and Windows was always popping up some bullshit.

Yeah, thought the same. Python isn’t intuitive to install new packages.

Employers can go suck a big fat cock.

If the enployee can communicate with their managers and co-worker in English when needed and talk in an other language when they talk between them, there’s nothing wrong.

If you stick to popular free software, the jank is limited.

The Linux userspaces have a lot of enthusiastic people that create their own software and share it, and thus it seems like there is lot of janky stuff (because there is).

It feels like Windows has been captured by corporations and so the market is competitive. There isn’t much space for enthusiast developpers to tackle a different vision of a popular software.

So yeah, I agree with you, lots of janky software in Linux, but that’s the beauty of it IMO. If you stick to popular softwares, the jank is somewhat equivalent to Windows.

You’ve used Windows for so long that you don’t remember how it was when you first started using it.

This isn’t different than what you are doing with Linux. The flow gets better and better and you will acquire the experience needed to navigate the issues. It takes time, that’s all.

Yeah, I opened the website thinkint it would be the github list with a better search, but it’s 95% AI crap

Bring back community servers, so the developers can keep their official servers and people that want to play on community servers can do that do.

It’s a solved problem that publishers tells you is hard to do in the name of money.

Don’t look harder into it.

Funny because for me, the Beyond burger taste better than many joint patties, but the price is prohibitively expensive, so I don’t buy them that often (or eat burgers that much for that matter)

Shout out to the kirkland brand as well, damn good patties.

Absolutely. Fuck payment processors

Someone’s gonna process the payment between the two banks, adding an intermediary between both banks won’t help much when it will be denied processing as well.

Credit cards companies forced itch.io to remove these games, otherwise they would stop processing their transactions, effectively bankrupting itch.io.

Without payments processors, they can’t sell games.

Having a federated platform wouldn’t mean much if the payments processors blanket ban the platform.

The Excel Spreadsheet is sacrosanct. A bean counter predicted that you should make more money than last year, and if you don’t, you are worthless.

Games as a service could work. The issue is that making money isn’t enough. You need to be making more money every year and bean counters have hijacked games as a way to squeeze as much money as possible from players.

With how many games are released on Steam, how can AI be quantified and enforced?

Merchants need payment processors to make money, and losing one makes a big dent in the sales. I won’t get a Mastercard because Visa isn’t accepted anymore.

If they say that X processor is a dick and lose them, they are worst for it.

Sometimes, people do that. But using 0/1 is explicit enough since you can refer to a line as ‘1’ or ‘0’ for high/low on the hardware as well

I am a lazy dev (not really, clients always want fast code), so I use the provided HAL libraries 99.9% of the time.

But I have seen code where someone would write something like

gpio_write(PIN_X, true) 

and it always stood out to me.
