- jjuelCame to say something about the ads too. Ended up not even reading the article it was so bad.
- Tell the people the government is inefficient and cannot work as intended. Defund said government so it doesn't work as intended. Privatize the work and profit. A playbook as old as time. Except they are doing it bigger and more brazenly than ever.
- Yeah this is just a "Don't use Signal. Use our alternative instead."
- Isn't the terminal program technically a GUI?
- So like a Christian who just wants you to share the same joys of Jesus Christ that they do correct?
- I used to love Solarized when using a light theme then I found papercolor. That is my preferred light although I am using a dark Tokyo Night now. I switch frequently.
- But highly processed refined carbohydrates are sugar as well. Or at least converted to glucose. We are told, however, that carbs are part of the balanced diet. While that is true the right kind of carbs are important. So people think they are being healthy while loading themselves up with poor quality carbs that are in fact quite unhealthy.
- So a town with a population of 800k is considered small to you? Yikes don't come to Iowa then...
- I mean isn't that a fair question all around? Why pay more for a high end laptop when you can just buy a cheap chromebook? The myth that ChromeOS is just a web browser is just that a myth. It can do so much more. Some people like a high end laptop, but also prefer the safety and security that ChromeOS provides. I owned a Pixelbook and loved it. Honestly still miss it. I would absolutely buy another high end ChromeOS device.
- I am glad I came across this post. I was thinking I was going to need to buy some new ones. My right one has a static issue and the left one has a weird clicking.
- I mean $49.99 per month for 0 ads is a steal.
- Bring back Geocities!
- What if my surgeon went to med school and was top of class, but had an attending who insisted on using the wrong tools? Or there was another surgeon on the team who created the "architecture" for a brain surgery, but for some reason in order to get to the brain they went through the chest. There can be many reasons for unreliable and buggy software that are completely unrelated to the developer.
- I cannot speak to Germany or California, but I can speak to being close to family. I know that has been invaluable to my wife and I. We were only 4.5 hours away when we first had our kids, but it seemed like a million miles. It was hard not having support or even just to drop the kids with family to run an errand or go to an appointment. After being back it is just amazing to have family close. Having that love, help and support will ease a lot of burdens. Even in a small village remote work should be an option. I would assume (but obviously don't know) that a small village in Germany has a lower cost of living than California so you should still be able to build wealth if you both get decent jobs. Just remember money isn't everything, and having family close will ease many of those burdens.
- I just want the door open/door close sounds back to know when my contacts are on or off line ;)
- So you think them doing something they enjoy together is a life wasted? Why call someone else's choices wasting. I enjoy spending time with my kids and doing things with family. Should I tell a couple with no kids who travel they are wasting their lives by not having a family or am I the one wasting my life by not traveling? Seriously to each their own. Let people live without judging. How much life are you wasting by browsing HN?
- The beauty is when you build your own OS with it's own desktop environment, and browser and tools from scratch you can use the language you feel is appropriate. Would you write a brand new project in a language you don't feel comfortable with just because it is perceived as "safer"? Especially when the project was just for fun, and really to help the creator get through some tough times in their life. Like he didn't start the project to compete with mainstream OSes or browsers. This is just a terrible take especially considering you probably use an OS written in C and a browser written in C++.
- But Wordle takes what 15 minutes of your day?
- If you cannot find an hour in the day you don't want to find an hour in the day.
