  • Solus Is Back, but Can It Survive Its Troubled Past?

    Jump

  • Yeah, the guy in the video said that as well, that's why I was wondering if it's in xbps-src.

  • The correct way to install Firefox

    Jump

  • Oh, cool, didn't know that, thanks 👍.

    But xbps is still keeps track of installed packages, right, xi is just a script.

  • Thinking of moving to sh.itjust.works from lemmy.world - one question about the rules though...

  • The same applies, try it.

  • I like the DE, seems really polished. Wonder if Void has it in xbps-src.

  • What happened to it?

  • If it's easy enough to actually steal, everyone does it. It's human nature, we're greedy by nature.

  • Confusing...

    Jump

  • Well, it sure as hell isn't 16, so yeah, in that case I would put the closest one as the answer as well, 13.

  • It's not an equation, it's simple math, like one used in a grocery store. You have 2 removeds and then you pick up 4 more pairs of removeds, how many removeds you got?

    As I said, it's not quantum mechanics, it's basic simple math.

    I bet your alarm clock app also uses simple math problems like this one. It's expected for a grown up or a teenager to be able to solve this, that is why they put it on alarm clock app. It's not something that's meant to be easily forgotten. That is why you learn these things when you're very young, so they stick with you for the rest of your life. But from the answers, it's easy to notice that most have never even learned this in the first place, at all. Why? Your guess is as good as mine 🤷.

  • What movies are worth rewatching?

  • Agreed 👍.

  • It's moneeeyy. That's all there is to it, money. They finally have an easy way to control what you can or can't do with the things that (at least on paper) you own.

    I just knew this was gonna happen... I warned about these things ever since music/movie subscriptions became a thing. You don't own a copy of what you (allegidly) bought, thus, it's not yours.

    Now, you do own the thing... at least on paper, but you can't do much with it unless you pay extra cash to the one who sold it to you, so it can... you know, do the things it's supposed to do. It's basically extortion, no matter how you slice it. It's malware, period.

  • You learn these things in 1st, 2nd grade. This is not quantum mechanics, this is simple basic math.

  • always use parentheses to denote order, there are no implied parentheses

    I completely agree on this, and yes, this is what I always do, cuz... well, we're human, we make mistakes, parentheses makes things easily visible, thus cutting down on mistakes.

    Still, I do know operation order, as a rule I mean. In simple calcs like these, making a mistake is almost impossible. Thus, people that answered 16 probably just don't know the order... that is something you learn in 1st, 2nd grade, it's not quantum mechanics we're talking about here.

    lazy mfs from centuries ago who were mortified by the thought of having to write ( and ) too much (lord what i wouldn’t give to hop in a time machine and show them lisp) should not be dictating our mathematical notation in this century.

    We only do that cuz we're not sure how the compiler will interpret the operation order, and there's waaaay too many versions and different languages to actually remember how each of them interprets math operation order. So, we do a safe bet, put parentheses on everything. Hell, I do it as well, I just can't be bothered to remember if C interprets it like this, Python like that, Rust like... god knows what. They should, in theory, know math operation order, but let's face it, we all do it cuz we've been faced with bugs that are a direct result of the compiler not intepreting things as it should.

    That being said, yes, I do agree that prentheses on everything, even math on paper, is the way to go. Plus, even people that don't know operation order, will learn it a lot qucker if you just show them how easy things become once you start using prentheses.

  • What surprised you most about your job?

    Jump

  • Actually, these guys keep EVERYTHING. Like litelarly everything. It's a TV station, so basically there is no need for the old equipment to be hooked up to PCs, cuz it's just used to digitalize old tapes, but still, these things are huge, so you need a shitload of storage. Luckily, they have it, so it's not a problem.

    I sometimes feel like treasure hunting when looking for parts, lol. I'm the IT guy there, but if it's a small fix, I sometimes do the tape players as well. Head change and stuff like that, not really a problem. Anything bigger, let's see what we got in the pile... well, waddaya know, here is one that works, here ya go 😁.

  • Yeah, I know about that too, but I thought ot was only local to my country, lol 😂. Guess not.

  • Chrome Rocks /s

  • There is no choice, so it has to rock 🤷.

    There is Servo, but no one seems to care much about it.

  • Confusing...

  • Sadly, this is actually true, people actually don't know simple math and operation order.

    And they ask me why I hold such low expectations for the future 🤦.

  • Dieting

  • How my wife thinks diets should work. They should also get rid of the excess skin.

  • Welcome to the world of digital subscriptions boys. It used to be a PC only thing... not any more.
