Correct, I did not watch the video because the first premise the video offered is untrue. I don’t mean to poo-poo you sharing Linux stuff, and if this video gets more people onto Linux, great.
But like I said, it is not for those of us who have been here for a very long time screaming about how important it is to control your OS if you want to own your computer.
Windows NEVER meant freedom.
Noped out right away.
Not the video for those of us who have been around for long enough to remember all the shit MS pulled trying to kill Linux off.
Old programmers shouting at clouds.
(Old programmer here, I just shout at differently shaped clouds than this one.)
Edit: I am not sure if the respondents to this comment think I have a horse in this race. I said I don’t and that I shout at different clouds. I am just here answering a question.
I console.dir and debugger; and breakpoint all day. You are allowed to mix your strategies.
Was there no easy way for the developer to block a random asshole?
So it is people running beta software at the kernel level?
Edit: I am not trying to be elitist - why would messing with X11 cause your system to be bricked? Come up in run level 3 and fix your issue in the terminal… ?
Hey, as an old school linux guy, I am always curious:
How the fuck do y’all seem to manage to fuck Linux up so bad that you seem to be so scared of bricking your systems?
I mean, really. I see this complaint all the time. And in 25+ years of Linux, I can think of maybe once or twice where I meased something up with dd way back in the day when that was the only tool.for certain jobs.
How are y’all managing to mess yourselves up?
I don’t have strong feelings one way or the other regarding Flatpak. I am just trying to understand why everyone seems so deathly afraid their linux systems will break when I have literally had way more windows systems just randomly do that to me over the years. How is your lived experience so radically different than mine?
Trust gamers to overreact and ruin things instead of being reasonable and finding a way forward that would benefit everyone, including the maintainers doing the thankless work of managing these distributions.
Same. Would be curious to know what problems this has caused any actual normal users (not weirdo fascist tech bros).
lol at 3/4 of a megabyte of Vue components being ok and thinking node_modules is the issue at hand.
You can keep your kernel-level shit off my CPU.
Spend money on servers. Verify your players. I don’t care how you do it, but you don’t get kernel-level access to my machine because some asshole script kiddies are aimbotting. You can never trust the client. This is basic shit that game devs will make up a whole host of bullshit to try to justify. (FWIW: I spent a solid decade as a professional game dev and I was as disappointed in this horseshit then as I am now. At least players are starting to figure it out now, too.)
