  • This comment needs more attention. Sometimes I wash Lemmy had awards like Reddit to make important things visible.

    Never would be allowing someone to scream racial slurs and ignoring it. Rarely and sometimes should be replaced with “it depends”. Always probably means the same thing as sometimes since you aren’t going to shout down a good speaker that you agree with. The whole survey doesn’t make sense when you stop to think about it.


  • That’s not woke, that’s blackmail.

    That’s worse. That sort of shit turns ignorant and gullible people anti-LGBT and makes their already difficult lives even harder.

    who need a cause to give her their miserable lives purpose

    Tell them to fight global warming. It is the problem that makes all other problems all but irrelevant in comparison.





  • So much to unpack here.

    GNU is not a Linux variant. It is a set of programs and shared libraries.

    ISO 9660 has nothing to do with compression. Just calling it ISO isn’t a good idea for an intro class like that because it is a set of MANY standards. They should have put a little side blurb and called it ISO 9660 in the table.

    tar is an archive tool. It has no compression.

    Why no mention of compression algorithms algorithms vs archive tools?

    Why not have different compression algorithms and their tradeoffs?

    ETA: jar files are just zip files for Java libs/programs. You can open them with zip file tools.


  • I’m assuming you are in the US. The problem with being broke is it is stressful. Stress impacts decision making, causing a cycle. The US is a capitalist society that educated people to behave as socialists with regards to business, career management, and employment.

    The people that REALLY need financial planning advice can’t afford it. Those that can use it to go from rich to richer.

    The best thing you can do is get some help going through your expenses to see what you can optimize. Once you start getting a little bit of a breather, you will feel a lot better.

    I’ve been following the FIRE community for close to a decade, so if you want, I can probably help you find some fat to trim.
