Why I don’t get is why they fight so hard to promote piracy though. It’s not enough that it’s free, it also has to be easier?

Lemmy.ml sucks. I really need to move on.
An Enermax keyboard has been my daily driver as a programmer for my career that started in 2007. It still works just fine and I still have no reason to change to something else. Lots of reasons not to, since I like the classic keyboard layout and the flat laptop keys.
I’m a software engineer too. I’ll tell you what changed. I have a kid. Daycare was shut down, but since both my wife and I can work from home we were expected to do just that. We got to spend a lot of time with the then two year old, but hardly saw each other except for the back of the head because one of us was always working. What was your corona project? Surviving, that’s what!
I don’t. Not much less either, I don’t interact much with social media. Not that I don’t want to, but I rarely have anything of worth to contribute. To make matters worse, Lemmy is mostly missing the communities that I’m interested in, of if they’re there, they have little engagement. On reddit it was a little better, and Facebook is just insane in comparison.
But mostly I don’t have anything to say, and if I do it’s mostly stupid. My primary means of helping Lemmy is to not interact (much).
So not Signal, or…?
Denmark just got all houses reevaluated by the government and this actually fits right in!
I don’t think Musk qualifies, being South African though.
Or a HURD.
Clones.
My dad’s friend told him this when they were discussing something. My dad pointed out that the other guy was also keeping the discussion going, being just as guilty of wanting to be right as my dad.
Well, neither is iso…
singular they/them has been in use for literally centuries
Even if has been in use since forever, a more appropriate word can be introduced now.
I’m chewing my way through the stormlight archives by Bryan Sanderson. Just finished book 2.5, on book 3 now.
I mostly listen on headphones during my workday. I very much prefer to listen on speakers though.
When you have a great programmer working on your project he will be cycled to a new project in 2-3 months. Your new senior developer who silently takes over the project is part time because he’s working on finishing his education.
No one knows how anything works, except that one guy, who left the company half a year ago. That’s how all software development is.
Honestly I think one of the bigger hurdles is the confusion about where to sign up. You have to choose an instance, preferably one that is “compatible” with you. But it hardly matters to the user because it’s all federated anyway. Just give me a server that will stay up.
I could download my file and be done with it. If I throw away or damage my super fragile bluray I’m not entitled to a new copy. I don’t even need to be able to redownload (although it’s a nice service). It means there is an ongoing service behind it because they decide it and because they are afraid I will share with my friends - which is about as difficult as finding the media elsewhere online.
Same issue with physical media. Suddenly your expensive factory is idle, your employees don’t produce anything. We still get to buy movies and not rent them perpetually.
