Really? That’s weird.

But then it would just all be Linux? Was that what you were trying to say?

Obligatory “um, akhtually, it’s magma”.

Are there actually people complaining that she’s ugly…? She literally looks like a model, just with some scars.

Man, I cannae stand you.

I think, the effect here is similar to a situation where you take 2 balls of different weights, for example a 🎾 and a 🏀, stack them with the smaller ball on top and drop them. If you drop them both from, say, 1m height, when bouncing off ground, the 🎾 will bounce up much higher than the initial 1m. Because the heavier ball will impart some amount of its kinetic energy to the smaller ball.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you’re able to perceive the nuclear explosion and not even go blind, then you aren’t close enough for your house to disintegrate like that.

Really? Somehow it appears unchanged on my end. And the last edit is before my comment. Lemmy bug?

I think it makes more sense to use the 🤏 emoji in that context, rather than the Italian gesture.

That last one is such a Mary Sue, does everything…

I find it kind of funny how that ancient TV stand has a MacBook on it. Not sure why, but I do.

So last week was black cats. This week it’s orca/dead fish hats. Wonder what’s in store for the next week.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but a sociopath can’t “develop” empathy. They lack the ability.

I merely tried to provide a response in the same tier as yours.

There’s no need to get upset, the entire comment was typed on a keyboard; I didn’t say a word.

This applies to pretty much all “Linux good, Win/MacOS bad” memes. I just assume that people either aren’t really serious about them and it’s just tongue in cheek, or they don’t have any contact with regular people.

I used to work as a(n assistant to the) sysadmin and the things I got called over never stopped to amaze. For instance, there was a case when software was updated on the work machines and I got called because some lady couldn’t use Adobe Acrobat. “It is asking me something, I don’t know what”. I come over and it’s just a TOS Accept/Decline window.

Some people do not understand computers to an extent that they can lock up in a state of confusion when a button has been moved 100px in any direction from its usual position.

Don’t use apostrophes wherever you see an “s” at the end of a word. If you’re unsure about whether or not to use an apostrophe, just don’t. Because statistically, there are far fewer cases where you need 'em than there are cases where you don’t. Plus if you missed the apostrophe where it should be, people will just assume you didn’t bother to type it or it was a typo. Whereas if you do type it where it shouldn’t be, it’s a clear case of “this person doesn’t know how apostrophes work”.

If you’re talking about an app that exist solely as Electron, then you might be right. But the primary benefit of Electron is that you can distribute your already existing webapp as a downloadable app, which reduces the amount of maintenance significantly.
Also, when it comes to UI diversity and customization, nothing beats HTML+CSS.

And as you mentioned, there’s a looot of webdevs. Electron empowers those people to easily create applications. Which they did, they created many useful apps. An application that isn’t perfect resource usage-wise is often much better than no application at all.

Think of Minecraft. Java is arguably the worst language to use for a chunk-based 3D game. But it’s still better than no Minecraft at all.

Fair enough.

My parents didn’t tell me :'(

But RAID is backup if it’s backup…
