7 was a stand in for a single digit numbet… didn’t realize it was that low. Yikes

My brain went “Firefox has what 7% market share? What’s 50% of that?? Actually, that probably is 4x the ‘Fediverse’ user total right there”

The black widows really get that screamish response that most bugs don’t give me. There’s something about that red on black that hits my primal buttons in a tizzy

The only other bugs that get me like that are the too many (more than eight legs) bugs. Milli/centipedes

Anything over 190 is just fine for me.

Assembly is probably the closest thing to magic humans have ever created.

(I’m disqualifying String/Quantum as they are “theories” and not in common use)

I was worried for a second, but this BOLTR was fine.

I think if you pick and choose he’s fine still…

I like the longer form videos from him

If you go far enough, everything is.

But SVGs are one of the few image types that can be human readable and editable

I always think of my additions as like warts or cancerous growths…

C is almost the old “steady” standard now it feels like. It’s so flexible and the frameworks are already built…

That’s horrifying

I just saw a “faster linear algebra” package scroll by on pacman. I almost pulled up the source/documentation.

The only thing that stopped me was that I have about 199 things more relevant to my usage than linear algebra.

Once the “new generation” consoles were released with Ryzen hardware I “knew” we were “close” to that nexus point of blur.

But yes indeed, having an open source/“free” operating system that is portable is such the major step.

I’m running EndeavourOS and steam is running smoothly for me…

🤣

The individual pop up for upgrades on windows is probably the single biggest bother… (except the Microsoft bloatware/spyware of course)

I’m trying (and mostly(?) failing) to transfer the energy/thought into Arch/Programming (check my instance)

Social media/Doomscrolling is just so utterly easy

You had me concerned about my spelling. 😅

Ahh. Lisp joke. I need to figure it out. I came to Linux without much use for it

Microsoft has been signing stuff that is being used maliciously.

Plus they have has their keys stolen to create malicious stuff…

Most calls I have at work are like group therapy sessions, as everyone has ideas of what they believe is correct, but they know if they keep pressing with management or take the time to do what is right, it won’t go well for them.

This is coming from a guy who lasted a year and a half in the office. Sounds like it’s a systematic issue…

Not so much “no sense”, I should have used something like “makes little sense” or “It’s a weird transitional country”…
