A live action Lorax movie, directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp as the onceler would be my dream movie

I think I saw something recently about the cursor getting some tweaks in Wayland, I think KDE was working on it? Not sure if it’ll help this kind of stuff but they’re trying to standardize the cursor a bit better

Admittedly I haven’t looked into too many rust applications but IME they generally don’t have a deb/rpm/binary or whatever. I’ve always had to cargo them in - it’s a relatively painless process. My understanding is that, in a similar fashion to python, you have to have the same dependencies on the source and target machine and cargo handles that in rusts case

I agree with you. If I have anything to give when I see someone in need, I give it to them. Not because I have some grand sense of purpose or anything. I do it because it makes me feel warm inside, it puts me in a better mood for the whole day knowing that someone else’s life is now a little easier because of me. Does that change the fact that I’ve made someone’s life a little easier?

I think you misread both the question and how they used ChatGPT Mr Bash Wizard

This is a much more serious version of my answer, which was going to be

“That’s one of the places where we decided oil was more precious than human life; I don’t really think of Iraq because the only discourse about it in my country is blatant xenophobia and I’m still working on finding ways around the propaganda”

Makes sense; one of the big things about it that interests me is the dockerfile generation. Although, I should probably get a better understanding of dockerfiles themselves before jumping into that; I have a habit of forgetting the order of carts and horses

I wanna get into Nix but I keep bouncing off the documentation every time I try to study it

My partner and I stopped into a liquor store down the street, and he asked for a specific drink he likes. They said “we don’t carry that, do you live nearby?” We told em we were just up the hill and the mfer ordered them on the spot so they could stock it for us

Sure, but if you’re working 50 hours a week (assuming US, I dunno laws elsewhere) you’re guaranteed 2.5 hours of mealtime per week that could be spent watching an informational video or reading an article.

I’m not saying “go back to school or you’re wasting your time” I’m saying “you have a few minutes where you could be reading a new idea instead of sitting on social media”

You’re injecting malice into my words. The point was “if you have the mental space for it, you should spend your time learning because it helps reduce stress by being both cathartic and relieving issues in your life”

No.

Yes.

Everyone has the time, not everyone has the priorities (this isn’t a dig, it’s a reference to some inspirational speech I heard in high school). 50 hour work week and 56 hours of sleep leaves 62 hours in the week. Probably another 12 hours split across 7 days for cooking, eating, etc. which leaves 50 hours to recover, study, exercise, or do whatever she pleases.

She values using those 50 hours to recover from the 50 working hours more than learning a new concept. That’s not invalid or wrong in any way, everyone has their priorities and values and they’re allowed to do whatever they want with their time.

That being said, everyone has the time they just might not have the mental space. But increasing your human capital by learning something new is often a great way of reducing stress. Learn to handle something in a new way, learn a little about financial theory, learn something that helps you at work. The best weapon you have against the injustice of daily life is knowledge. If you have the mental space, find the time to learn something

ETA: Coming from the perspective of a full time student who spends 6+ hours daily searching for a job because I’ve been down on my luck since quitting a year ago. I grew up poor and watched my mom work full time, put herself through school, raise three kids, and continues to fight every day for the right to live; I know the struggle you’re going through right now. Spend your time better than I did.

I would agree, except for the continue studying. Everyone has at least 20 minutes of downtime that they could put towards learning a new concept every day

As an american, the amount of people who refuse to accept that American Propaganda exists is staggering. I had an immediate reaction to seeing “China is good though” and I have no way of knowing if it’s justified because I’ve been my told my entire life that China is an evil shithole by American propaganda.

To take it a step further and say “America doesn’t have your best interest at heart” is deeply unsettling to the vast majority of Americans who blindly hand away their freedoms in the name of Freedom. Wait until people find out that our country is just like all the ones we’re taught to hate

GPU doesn’t work after being reconfigured

Syncing files between devices is always a struggle

Syncthing?

Read your updates before you do them?

Bluetooth and scaling are not issues I’ve ever run in to, but I can’t say they’re not common.

Basically, this whole post reads as “I messed with things that I didn’t properly understand and I’m blaming my computer for doing what I told it instead of what I wanted”

You can actually, and I would suggest, grab a fresh Fedora install that comes with either of those DEs. If you don’t wanna do that, I would suggest at least making a new user so that the gnome stuff isn’t crowding your new life

Windows only software

I’m sure by now you know about the troves of compatibility layers that exist in order to make this possible; depending on the software.

This is more of a DE issue than Linux issue, I’m assuming you went with the default Gnome but you might like KDE or Cinnamon for a more windows like experience. I personally loved both of those DEs until I made the mistake of getting comfortable with a window manager
