Lmao. They couldn’t even copy code from a random MIT licensed project? Sometimes I think these scammers aren’t even trying

You could try making enabling git’s rerere functionality, which stands for “reuse recorded resolution”

Arch does tend to keep packages as close to upstream as possible, which can be both a good and bad thing. Sway not binding to graphical-session.target by default is a little strange for example. Other distros also save a first-time user a great deal of configuration for things they probably don’t care about as well. Going through Fedora’s install and finding out that disk encryption and SELinux were configured OOTB was very nice to see personally. On the other hand Arch’s installation (w/o archinstall) has you choosing a bootloader, audio server, display manager, etc. Nothing arduous and I like it, but definitely not for everyone

This is all eliminated by spinoffs of course, but even there users have the option to run random scripts/AUR packages without vetting them. Also doesn’t help that the most popular Arch-based distro for a while (Manjaro) was pretty flaky and generally incompatible with the AUR (despite saying otherwise), leading to many people saying “that’s just Arch” and swearing off the parent project as well

I switched to (Doom)-Emacs from a ~7yr old homegrown Vim config last week and honestly the configuration is less bad than it seems. If you’re mainly writing markdown you’ll probably get 99% of the way there by just enabling the dedicated module

The back end is open source, but sometimes they’ve lagged years behind releasing the source code.

I think this is the more worrying part if true. The backend is licensed under the AGPL, so this would technically be a violation of their terms

Edit: For anyone else reading I looked into it a bit more and looks like the issue came to a head around 3 years ago, with this comment being made after a year of missing source code. The public repo has been pretty active since then, so the issue seems to be resolved

Additionally if you’re looking for it to start on boot without logging in, you might find the loginctl enable-linger command to be of use. Maybe along with a Restart=on-failure policy in the service file if this is for a headless unit or something

The name was used casually before, but he officially changed it in 2021

Wouldn’t call it trash but personally after trying it a couple times it seemed like it took as long to config as neovim while also not being nearly as hackable (probably is more extensible though being a GUI). For that amount of time I’d rather use something with larger benefits like an IDE

I suppose it’s to stop a critical mass of promoters commenting “and my axe” among themselves? I agree though it doesn’t really feel right to encourage more low effort posts

If it’s an external SSD I could see it being useful in order to keep native compatibility with Windows and MacOS (IIRC their other option would be FAT32 but I don’t use a Windows machine so who knows)

For fun or to play around with transpilers?

They’re talking about the Hogwarts game

At least the Adventurers Bible can keep it going for a little while longer

Ouch, CHP 10 seems early to have the first on-screen murder

Wow, not that bad for a series that was endlessly criticized when starting out

“And then we waited to see who, if anyone, would give a shit,” she said.

MacFarlane concluded, "Our elegant approach didn’t work, so we hired a Perl hacker to go dig up the personal details on all 38 accounts that had ever upvoted a Haskell post, and the only one we didn’t know was Seth Briars.

This is the one that got me

It also encourages the vague rule-making and arbitrary/excessive enforcement so that power mods can farm points. All the things people love about the site!
