No, not at all. More like, if your car is broken you could also ride a bike, or walk, or take a bus or a cab or a train or an airplane. Sometimes it’s helpful to have solutions presented that you didn’t even think of. Like how you assumed that the only way to deal with a broken car is to fix it or buy a new one. That’s not true at all, and I’m here to help you explore all the ways to solve your problem, not just the ones at the top of your mind at the moment.

It’s the only perspective I have, unfortunately.

Using a different tool is not abandoning the problem.

Ah yes, put your problem out in the internet, then get befuddled when people suggest solutions. Classic.

People are desperate to justify stealing stuff, cus no one wants to be the bad guy in their own head.

“Gas prices going up? To the high seas I go!”

Well then, good news! Sodium ion is in production.

What does “cli” have to do with anything? Also, this is terrible for many other reasons.

Gotcha. Not gonna keep chasing your goalposts, so have a good one!

Got it. My bad.

If you don’t like “the pimp middleman in between”, I can only assume you exclusively consume your entertainment on subway platforms and pay with dollar bills, which is great, and good for you, but I like to support creators and live a comfortable life. Some of my money goes to Bandcamp, Patreon and Google. You do you.

“Mole rat”. haha, cute. I’m not worth your top-shelf stuff, trust me. Save it for your English teacher.

Need Servo completed first, and then it will come. It’s coming along, but it will still be a long while.

I never use Chrome or anything Chromium based. You sound like you use Brave.

But if someone offers me an entertainment service at a price, I pay, or don’t use it. You’re not some noble pirate, you’re just a cheap ass who wants to consume other people’s hard work for free.

That’s what I do. Works great. Or don’t pay and don’t use it. Crazy talk, I know!

He sent some random Twitter employee to Home Depot to buy a sink, then went out to get it just to walk back in the door with it and a shit-eating grin.

It’s a client library only. Keep running Synapse. :D

The new Rust library is really solid. Once things start moving to that instead of rolling their own, it will get a lot more smooth.

Yeah, I do wish they just let you disable encryption for all rooms at a server level. But years ago people gave the team so much shit for not supporting encryption that they added really good encryption, but it makes things harder. Nothing is free.

Another kind of silly benefit is that distros without their own graphical package manager can use the gnome one with Flathub. I actually started installing NixOS on my family’s computers, because I can start from a common config and have everything up and running quickly. Plus it’s super stable. And with Flatpak, they can install software after I’m gone without editing the config. It’s kinda like my config is the base system, and then they can layer on top.

Can you really put a price on harassment?
