EXTERMINATE?

like why does every font, except ubuntu, have these ugly af corners?

Not a font guy, but isn’t it just mimicking how humans use strokes to write?

It looks nicer, and it’s easier to read for me tbh.

Common Lisp on the other hand is more of a 1980s language where you can use a functional style some of the time, and with some pain.

Isn’t the main issue with it that you’re not forced to be functional? It’s supposed to be pretty good at it with the correct libraries.

Either way, you’d start by reading SICP

You really don’t want OP to learn lis

Inb4 Mozilla dies because the lead of the AI development division is the ex-ceo who followed up massive layoffs with doubling her multi-milion salary every few years.

I initially tried guix -> switched to nix with home-manager because it’s got a lot better repos -> installed all user packages through nix on Debian -> nixos

Before nixos I used flatpaks for some packages because nixgl seems abandoned.

Why are you even running arch at that point, for the DE updates?

Most mainstream OSes have GUI for anything you’d need to do as a novice.

And how is Linux any different?

I’ve literally had a non-technical person who used Linux for less than a week fix an issue through the xfce gui while I was googling a solution.

You just need to choose a correct distro and DE for the job.

More like a restaurant that has Korean BBQ / hot pot on the menu. Most meals are completely prepared, but for some you need to do a small part yourself.

I get that for sure, but you can still use it only for specific tasks like org-mode LaTeX. It was literally made by some astronomer/astrophysicist to make writing LaTeX easier.

Come to the evil side, we have org-mode

vim user

LaTeX user

When you go to the wrong side

why the hell should I trust a US project

Bekuz Amerika fridom wurld polis, best kontri in da world!

But on a more serious note, did you know Linus banned those Russian contributors like a month after redhat and DoD signed a new deal. Can you guess who owns RH stocks?

If nobody adapted one of the mobile distros, and that would be the first thing I check before buying.

Should be pointing at the monitor. Xkill only stops showing the process, it doesn’t kill it.

I get that you can always apply patches yourself but … it rubs me the wrong way

Or you know, install a different distro…

Got the same message, but from a different issue

Doom Emacs and lazyvim nvim.

Don’t know about helix, and don’t really care.

Modal is incomparably more comfortable, that’s the main benefit.

The problem that I have is that learning new editing keybindings would probably take me a month of time, before I get to the same amount of productivity

Do you imagine vi-based editors don’t let you use your mouse or what? Go through vim-tutor, learn the basic shortcuts you need, and you’re back to your old productivity in a few days. You don’t need to learn vi" to select a string, you can just use your mouse.

No offense to you or your habits, but C-arrow is an idiotic movement scheme. If you have to leave the home row to move around the text, you fucked up.

Just go through vim tutor…

stable is called stable because of stability

stability
noun [ U ]
uk
/stəˈbɪl.ə.ti/ us
/stəˈbɪl.ə.t̬i/
C1
a situation in which something is not likely to move or change:
a period of political stability

The point of a stable distro is that it’s unchanging. That way you have predictable issues that you can solve in the same way for the lifetime of that version.

Reliability is a side benefit of maintainers choosing the best available version to freeze.

Ackshyually stable only relates to the release schedule. Stability is not reliability.
