Back then we had LightScribe

Can’t wait for two painful hours of “well excuuuuse me, princess”

It’s an attempt at a joke, jokes are supposed to be funny

Mac, Dame, Cady, Mia, Addy

Holy shit that’s one versatile name

Hol up we may have something here

Do you actually think this exchange was in any way helpful or productive

A Chevrolet pickup truck. Which is an American brand. Lmao

Weird to recommend someone develop software for Linux then, on the basis that “it should Just Work ™️ in Windows because Windows has the Linux Windows Thing”

Dawg, you can’t make a post talking about how dumb you are, include an anecdote that demonstrates how dumb you are, and then get defensive when people call you dumb lol.

Also, if you actually want productive help, you probably need a financial literacy class and a financial advisor, not a post on Lemmy.

I don’t think anyone is saying that the story of Hades isn’t portrayed well with the rougelike style, but it’s totally ok to say “I don’t have time to play a game that’s designed such that you fail dozens of times before you win”

Ubisoft sucks, yeah, absolutely, no disagreement there. It’s just kinda funny to compare a video game company that makes games about dismantling governments to a guy who’s actually, currently dismantling a government, hyperbole or no

God dammit, the ads finally found their way to Lemmy

implying the big Linux DEs of user-friendly distros (usually Cinnamon, KDE or Gnome) were bad is just utter nonsense

Where did I imply that?

Incomplete at times in regards to very specialised administrative tasks, sure.

Right, that’s all I was saying.

Lol stop putting words in my mouth

You missed my point so bad that I’m unsure if it’s worth trying to re-explain myself

Eh, I think that in the context handling classified information, it’s fair to say Signal is “insecure”, purely because anyone with a phone number can have an account, and can be accidentally added to sensitive conversations.

You know, like the exact thing that happened in this article.

Not that that’s Signal’s fault. But the fact that it’s even possible makes Singnal unusable for handling classified information.

Well, see, the thing is that it 100% absolutely positively no-questions-about-it does warrant a meeting and government approved, Internet-disconnected communications methods.

The fact that Trump’s entire fucking cabinet apparently disagrees is what concerns me.

The one enabling people to understand and use their devices on their own.

If you’re using a UI, and you have a question about something or don’t understand what you’re doing, isn’t that a sign that either the UI you’re using is insufficient, or your own knowledge is lacking?

Good UI/UX conveys function.

Exactly. By itself, a good UI should “enable people to understand and use their device on their own”. If you’re a UI user and you can’t figure something out on your own, maybe you need to use the terminal to accomplish whatever you’re trying to do.

That chart shows people being pissed off at the Democratic national party.

Eh, if anything it just shows where the people are. Ie, cities.

Depending on how many layers of abstraction you have, your app may not have access to the raw HTTP response.

That sounds like either over-abstraction or bad abstraction then

And also the copious use of steroids (without any accompanying resistance training), which makes him look like a sweaty bag of manure on legs
