Don’t feel dumb! This is just normal learning!
Symlinks are possible in Windows (at least in NTFS filesystems) but to my knowledge they aren’t used by anything official.
Windows’s weird “psuedo folders” thing it does with “Documents” etc is something else entirely.
Speedrunning terms are a gold mine for this sort of thing.
Most obvious one is “gay baby jail”.
I can see the logic. The realities of day to day life and managing a household together are a considerably larger presence than most people realize until they’re shoulder deep into adult life.
Man, now I want to see a “cursed terminals” thing take off like the “cursed UI” stuff did.
I’ll stick to the oil, thanks. Maybe the chicken. Anything bigger and it just slides out that side hole! Talk about wasted calories.
To summarize my comment on your post of this article on lemmy.ml:
Literally who?
How in the absolute fuck does any group not involved in hosting the largest fediverse instances even begin to justify looking for $1.3 Million in funding?
I’ve used Sardu on Windows for making multi-iso bootable USB sticks a long time ago in the past, but I’d admittedly never looked at their ToS or Privacy Policy. My use case was slapping some live boot antivirus scanners, data recovery tools, and one or two lightweight liveboot-Linux ISOs on one USB as a portable toolkit.
When I’m making anything else from Windows, I’ve always stuck with Rufus. Had never heard of BalenaEtcher before now.
I see you’ve met my toddler. She’s a master of the scientific process.
By which I mean she will try something that caused her finger to get stuck three more times to check if her finger gets stuck every time.
It’s not unreasonable to ask for a NSFW tag so I don’t casually scroll into an image with the business end of a pocket pussy on my feed.
My morality and logic is just different.
Holy shit you cannot be real. I just choked on my water.
Man you are like the postershild of that meme about playing chess with a pigeon. Knock over the board, shit on everything, and strut away with every fiber of your being reinforcing the idea that you “won”.
You’re more than welcome to find retroactive justification for your actions, or to shore up in your head the concept that the end result justifies your means. But that doesn’t mean “I’m just built different I guess, teehee!” like some sort of badge of honor.
From life experience, and from knowing a number of people like you over my years: If you continue with this sort of attittude towards life, and general pattern of behavior, it will come back to bite you hard someday. When it does you will likely not find many people sympathethic to you or willing to help you, due to your own behavior.
I’m fairly certain that you aren’t the type of person capable of reflecting on your behavior or the responses to it in the last thread or this one and learning to ba a better person from it, but in the rare chance:
Your own descriptions of your own actions meant to portray you as being in the right instead portray you as an impatient asshole with the emotional and psychological maturity level of a 12 year old, who also has an absurdly inflated idea of the value of themself and their actions.
There is not much worse in this world than self righteous fuckstains taking actions that were never asked for or wanted, with the motivation that they are only doing what is best for other people who never asked for their help.
Would it be too much to ask for a NSFW tag on this? Thanks.
I’m not saying Bluesky sucks, but this is childish.
Bluesky was started by the same guy who started Twitter, and is only federated in concept.
It was never meant to be “Twitter but better”. It was always meant to be “How can we make the most money off fleeing twitter users?”. There’s a lot of overlap between the money making and being better, but it’s incidental to the real goal. Any claims otherwise are pure marketing.
Yup. There’s even fake “a portion of sales go to Luigi’s defense” stores online now, that actually just funnel money to completely unrelated groups.
Did any of Chuck Tingle’s books get physical releases?
Meanwhile I’m here laughing in Jerboa. No fancy auto refresh for me.
I’m probably overdue for checking out other lemmy apps.
Lol, that has nothing to do with the constant psyops run on it. Those have been present since well before the sale. The site allows anyone to post anonymously. It’s the perfect grounds for manufacturing the appearance of consensus.
Brother you aren’t thinking far enough!
Seriously, thank you for the laugh. This is one weird ass twist on “ends justify the means” here. “Current situation retroactively invalidates any previous progress or the tools used to reach it” maybe? Quite a mouthful.
My guy, life is filled with meaningless gestures we all have to regularly do.
I frequently know the only viable solution for companywide issues at my workplace. Do I just run off on my own and shove it through because I know I’m right? No.
Even when the change is so buried in the back end that they’d never know, I participate in the meaningless gesture of informing the business folks, taking questions that they don’t have the knowledge base to understand my answers, etc. It’s a regular process established in my workplace, and despite it not changing anything, it must be followed.
For the price of a few hours every four years, I get to bite back at people who argue that you don’t have any say if you didn’t vote. And if by some miracle voting ends up effecting some change (companies drawing conclusions from the popular vote maybe?), I’m already doing the bare minimum.
It’s great!
Blocking the kind of unhinged people who dredge through someone’s comment history for something to take out of context, comment personal insults, then edit the insults into image spam is still viable.
