Revenge does have a preventative effect. Who would the bully rather punch, the individual who instantly punches back or the one turning the other cheek?

.deb

$ /opt/camelchat/camelchat

opt/camelchat/camelchat: symbol lookup error: /opt/camelchat/camelchat: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_pointer

Appimage

Set as executable.

$ ./Camel-Chat-0.2.0-x86_64.AppImage

tmp/.mount_Camel-7OCAAq/camelchat: symbol lookup error: /tmp/.mount_Camel-7OCAAq/camelchat: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_pointer

From a similar issue for a different app it seems to be a glib issue, requiring glib 2.8+ when Debian12 is shipped with 2.74.6-2+deb12u5.

Works perfectly!

why are you being taxed more than me? We use the same roads, schools and services.

Is it a question of not understanding or not accepting?

I did run the app image in terminal and got an error about missing something, and the app image comes with everything bundled right? Might be an issue on my end I suppose.

I’ll redo it and paste the error message tomorrow.

Looks interesting but can’t get it to run on Debian 12, neither the .deb nor the appimage.

I totally agree with your approach to choices. I don’t have the time nor insight into politics to make educated decisions so I just flip a coin every fourth year and is done with it. Yet people berate me for my ignorance?!

I think it’s a rather human thing to do, explaining oneself when refusing to lend a hand. I also think warning friends, family and those I care for about what I consider dangerous to be quite nice.

I suppose we just have to agree to disagree about how we interact and care for our fellow humans.

Sure, many jobs require people to use unethical, but legal tools and methods. I used to work somewhere like that - and what ever OS they had installed was irrelevant because it was their equipment, their systems and I didn’t use work stuff for personal things.

But really, are you describing someone dependent on a job or someone dependent on certain windows-exclusive applications? Are they forced to use their personal equipment for work stuff?

I’d ask them to consider their dependence on windows only apps. If they want help with installing linux I’m happy to help, but I’m not an enabler there to help perpetuate their negative dependence.

I refuse to help people with installing any versions of windows out of ethical reasons, just like some tattooist refuse to tattoo people in the face or give them similarly stupid tattoos.

Yes, I’m arrogant enough to think I know better than those who haven’t considered the issue at all.

Things are so bad (and the future is even worse) so I’ve just stopped caring. Feels better than before, so that’s an improvement!
