Aa!

Eeh, you have a point, but on the other hand, if the word meaning “literally” no longer means “literally” then we need a new definitive term for the concept.

And we don’t have one. We just have a word that is becoming more ambiguous every year

WSL is pretty good these days. Dual boot with Windows is still a pretty risky move with how easily Windows will overwrite your boot loader. I usually recommend you pick one os or the other rather than dual boot, so I’m in favor of WSL or virtualbox. Personally, I have never cared for needing to reboot just to switch operating systems. I tend to stick with one and the second one does nothing but take up disk partition space.

WSL lets you run both simultaneously without rebooting. Virtualbox lets you do the same with extra setup. Virtualbox makes it easier to do GUI setups than WSL does, and the network configuration is a little more obvious.

The best option is to get a second machine so you can run both. If that’s not an option, virtualbox is the better choice for learning. If you just want a Linux environment on your existing setup (similar to using a Mac) then WSL is usually good enough

Tabasco?

I prefer hot sauce on old pizza, not vinegar

I would much rather they have the mute button. Put them in soundproof booths so he can’t talk over her when it’s not his turn.

You’re arguing opinions and trying to convince someone as if they are facts. There’s plenty to criticize about how AI is used, but it is a valuable tool for those that use it.

The amount of value it provides is very subjective, and even if you don’t find it useful, many others do. You might as well be trying to argue that you don’t like photography because it doesn’t provide the same experience of drawings and paintings. You wouldn’t be wrong to feel that way, but you would be wrong to tell someone else that they need to feel the way you do.

For that matter, why is waist size a Boolean?

The flute was found in the probe. Riker brought it to him at the end of the episode

Imagine programming a computer without understanding the machine code that tells the CPU what to do

Last I heard, the rules were more strict on the redesign – but old Reddit still let you sign up without email

I’m fond of Go, which comes with its own auto formatter. It eliminates all arguments over style and format.

That’s not even supported by the enterprise version. You’re going to need a special agreement with the iseven people to support numbers like that

What do you think people are not understanding?

I wanted an account on a Lemmy instance, and Lemmy.world is one. Since then, I’ve been pleased with most of what the admins are doing with it.

And they haven’t gotten bored and abandoned the instance like a lot of the smaller ones have gone.

iRobot […] soon to be facts

Beware the sinister Roomba, what are they doing with all the dirt they steal from our floors?

WSL has replaced my use of the command prompt in Windows for anything (and I used it more than most, I think).

In my job, I develop Linux applications to support industrial automation, and WSL is capable of building and running most of what I make. It isn’t a full Linux machine, and can behave unexpectedly when trying to do things like changing certain network configurations.

So it’s great for what it’s for, really. But if you want a full VM, this isn’t really for that.

I’m pretty sure what you’re missing here is that you did give (arguably) objective descriptions of issues with the game, but it’s still your opinion that these make the game a failure. Sure, it didn’t meet up to your standards, but those standards are absolutely subjective.

Lots of games are repetitive. Lots of games have no story consequences shown in the game. They still succeed at being games, even if they don’t meet your standards.

I get it, you are passionate about this, but you’re mistaken at this point.

Seems to me this has spawned a fair bit of discussion… Which is the actual reason we’re all here.

Sync has gotten a lot of buzz (I don’t understand why, even on Reddit, rif was always better anyway) and that’s always going to bring out the people who don’t agree, for one reason or another.

Don’t mistake an opinion you don’t share for anything beyond what it is. I could just as easily parrot your statement back: if you don’t think this discussion is productive, just ignore it. There’s plenty of other discussions to get involved with on Lemmy
