People don’t like to admit that we are ants. We are valuable and important. Each one of us is unique and deserves a full, good, life. But we are also ants. We are susceptible to group think, mob behavior, and we tend to follow the scent trail most of the time. It’s not a bad thing. It’s tied to our evolutionary desire to be a part of a community; to fit in and blend in.

But it also means individuals are likely to do what keeps them alive. We are likely all bad in some way or another.

But as long as you aren’t, actively, willfully, or gleefully harming people, you’re probably ok.

Why didn’t you like Hashicorps Vault? I want to know for my own edification.

I hope so. I don’t want to manage two different address spaces in my head. I prefer if one standard is just the standard.

Obviously don’t pet service dogs. Just to be clear. This photo was intentionally photoshopped to make it appear as though the airport was saying “Travel Advisory: when traveling don’t pet dogs”. As in, when in the UK never touch a dog. I thought it was funny/cutesy. I didn’t intend on sparking a big debate about the ethics of petting dogs or the rules about service dogs.

Don’t touch service dogs.

Pet dogs if you know them or are introduced to them.

Basic dog rules people. Teach your children

That’s the point. The storage is a bad metric. While it might indicate poor performance, it’s not a direct indication of poor performance. The bloat and optimization comes from the usage of Electron. And people use Electron because it’s far easier to make cross-platform deployments for Web and desktop using a framework like Electron. Show me the QT/JavaFX app that mimics Signal and we can compare the cost to develop it. Electron isn’t the best choice for memory usage and reducing bloat, but it’s the best choice for quick development (in my opinion but also proven out by the market share it has)

For me it’s a pattern of “Ctrl+t” to open a new tab and then I search “my interesting query”. After that, I use “shift+tab” or “Ctrl+shift+tab” to navigate between tabs. Rinse and repeat until I get tired.

I don’t like searching in my current tab because I don’t want to lose the info I have.

I didn’t until apps started breaking. The snap version of steam, Firefox, and Unity (I think?) all started to have issues. When I googled around people would often ask “deb or snap”? I uninstalled the snap packages and installed the deb packages and most of my issues went away.

I ultimately switched to Linux Mint because I kept having stability issues and I was just desperate for a solution. But snap was not a great experience for me.

/s for stroke?

did you even read the full thread which provides the context you’re neglecting?

No.

Oh yeah for sure I could use virtual desktops in addition. But a single monitor doesn’t accomplish what I said. Hence why I brought it up as a counter point.

Yeah I guess you could do something completely different than what I said.

Yeah I can do both. Most movies are dialogue forward so I’m not always watching the screen. And then when there is a break in my game (loading screens, waiting for something to happen, mindless tasks) I can watch the screen. I only do it with games like Minecraft, Satisfactory, Cities Skylines, etc.

Full screen

Watch a full screen movie while you do something on another monitor. Virtual desktops can’t do that.

Anything “salad” where the salad includes tuna, mayo, or egg. I can’t handle it. I don’t know why. Egg salad. Tuna salad. 🤢

I like salad. I like eggs. I like tuna somewhat. I like mayo somewhat. But any of those weird combinations make me sick.

Tell me where is Gandalf for I much desire to speak with him.
