This is not a battle between Linux and Windows. It is a battle between the Steam Deck versus the Desktop PC platform (windows users). Stop with the claiming Linux marketshare over it.

I’m off to celebrate how widely BSD is used because technically the Playstation uses it and the switch incorporates code from FreeBSD. BSD derivitives are the most popular game console OS. It’s the year of BSD!

No, Windows anti-cheats will check specifically for Microsoft’s keys in use.

It’s a Louis Rossman video, so it’s egotistical garbage.

No. You are making assumptions about security and ultimately assuming you’re the only one who thought this along the way.

He stands for agreeable things but in no way should he himself be in charge of anything. He kind of sucks.

Good lord stop comparing LLMs to airplanes in your replies. This is why you think “AI bad” is an unserious statement.

Absolutely brain dead to compare the probability engine “AI” with no fundamental use beyond marketed value with a wide variety of truly useful innovations that did not involve marketing in their design.

Why is your only solution to literally any problem to rewrite everything? Five months for non trivial auth is hilarious. It’s not like you used WindowsScript, that’s just C#.

Your first mistake was switching to the dumpster fire that is matrix.

You can use XMPP with e2ee with more adventurous or likeminded peers. You can install some bridges to the services your friends want to keep using. Most competent xmpp servers can get you chatting (with XMPP) within 5-20 minutes (if you have no issues wrangling DNS and certs) and it’ll likely do p2p voice/video calling with e2ee right out of the box. These are incredibly light programs you can run on small VPSes. Try all the client programs you can trust, use whatever you like.

Use movim and Libervia with your server. Libervia can bring the ActivityPub to your XMPP clients. You can do anything you want to, as privately as you can. Enjoy content syndication with pubsub and atom. Interact with the wider fediverse on your own terms.

lol

You can already do what you want. S3 with HTTP, XML + XSL for responsive / dynamic content.

No. Shut up, nobody agrees with you.

They didn’t even say that! As they said: you missed their point. Congrats on doing so openly :)

Just a stupid response from a stupid person, not a “hopeful idea”

Tired of you people bitching about how the only large scale non-nuclear solution to our problem isn’t “great for the environment” when it’s the ONE thing that isn’t actually destroying the planet. Can’t have anything less than 100% magical perfection, nobody will ever please you.

This is both positive and negative, but it’s overall a success in the interview process, but not a job quite yet.

You’re in what is generally the final stage, you’ll likely have a call or meeting after this in a week or two to discuss results.

You’re currently up against everyone else who has survived the interview process. They’re looking for one or more things on this list:

• “Culture Fit” (they want to work with you because they like who you are)

• Technical Expertise (they want your skills to augment the team and are comfortable with who you are and the idea of working with you)

• Extraordinary Technical Expertise (in the right setting sometimes all that matters is you’re really good at one or more desperately needed skills)

• Internal Business Needs (your skillset fulfills some internal need, you can ask if this is the case, actually)

Ultimately what rings true is generally the best thing you can do is see if your personality is a fit for the team’s culture. They want to see you try, you’ll need to evaluate them as well. Don’t go overboard, be sincere. Clearly they are entertaining the idea of working with you.

Odds are you’ll be asked a selection of technical questions. It is not an exam, the right answer is not the goal, and honestly every correct solution will be rewarded with more bullshit to get you thinking and adapting. They’ll be evaluating you, not your solution nor your perfect ability to spit out code. They might be wondering “can I pair program with this person” or perhaps something else, be that person they want, ideally by being yourself.

Why is it negative? This is the part where you get your hopes up, and ultimately you are still against the best part of the interview pool. Mentally prepare to walk away proud you got here, hope for the offer and acceptance!

If you are in the United States: You will not have a job until you show up on your first day. Job offers, employment contracts, don’t bother entertaining the illusion these are bulletproof documents that grant you any protection if they back out. Ideally don’t worry about it, I’ve seen some people get screwed over lol.

If you are not in the United States: Getting to this point in the interviews is even more impressive and lucrative, further congratulations are in order: Congrats, get that contract!

They get shot up because of easy access to guns, next question please!

You can also avoid using the internet entirely. I personally reference my 30 volume encyclopedia collection rather than risk seeing an ad or an internet service being anything less than perfect.

Lol go fuck yourself. You actual shitbag. There is one population on earth we should track: humans. Who fucking cares who they live today, losers like you I guess.
