Piefuckers

Pffft. You just aren’t a Nix enjoyer yet.

Fühl ich, Bruder.

This is about as useful as the assholes going “It’s not Pedophilia, it’s Hebephilia!”.

Baby steps: I wish it was mandated that any software receiving even a penny in public funding must be open source down to the last byte.

You are probably half-joking, but… yeah.

I fucking hate this timeline. Actually, scratch that, that is way to placid and abstract.

I hate the assholes in charge. Fuck all of them. Luigi did nothing wrong.

My blood glucose monitor is not on the play store. So one dy next year I’ll wake up and no longer be able to get that data…?

Right? These companies act like they are selling food and we are stealing it.

In reality, they put a big “free beer” sign up, we go and happily accept the beer, and then they act outraged that we refuse when they try to piss in the mug after handing it to us.

Yeah. I don’t have a contract with the site, agreeing to pay them in any way, shape or form. They voluntarily show me their content, but that does not obligate me to also accept their ads.

Yes, in supported apps / protocols. Koreader, for example, should have 2-way sync for eBooks, and Mihon has 2-way sync for Manga.

+1 for kavita. It also has a nice webreader ui.

Using a docker container provides you with the exact amount of extra protection as using a VM: zilch.

Only advantage is you can use other people’s config easily.

Would passkeys solve your grievances for you?

Well… In my case it would be “calculate how much loss you’ve been making by growing your own veggies!”, lol.

(Container gardening and watering add up, but I am not complaining, I am not doing this to save/earn money)

I was SO confused until I checked the community.

Thought this was about literal, real-world vegatable gardens as a hobby.

… are entirely possible, even if rarely the right choice.

Or a CLI with clap.

Curious what you are talking about. Multi-threaded sharing of memory for example is also easy with rust, it just doesn’t let you wrote and read at the same time, and so on.

Yeah. Once you get used to the (verbose, but by no means unergonomic!) syntax, you’ll probably never be happy with another language again. Job-wise, I am currently mostly using Go, and while also a nice language, I miss the confidence and security I took for granted with rust.

Not to mention just how goddamn expressive rust can be. Let bindings like if ok/err, else return? Assign from a match on Some(Ok(x))? Filter, map, and friends on any iterator? Oh my GOD the error handling with the question mark iterator? 100% confidence that if it compiles, no error, possible null value, or case is unhandled.

And all this WHILE giving you the amazing security benefits!

Ah, damn, caught me proselytizing again.
