@snow not with that kind of attitude

The most powerful weapon you are given in video games is the ability to load from a previous save point. You may not be able to beat the boss the first time, but given enough chances you'll inevitably win.

The world has a near endless stream of options of music to listen to, a list that consists of masterpieces constructed by people who spent years working on their craft... Yet here I am listening to 10 hours of a cartoon cat singing EEEAAAOOO

Any version jump from 0.x to 1.x requires a little bit of arrogance.

@design_RG @snow Thanks for the explanation!

@design_RG I was following along fine until you mentioned "Gab users".. what is a Gab user?

@freemo Specifically, I use `:set color column=81` in Vim. You can also use "cc" for short.

On the plus side, I can work remotely until the repairs are done. Always good to be greatful for the little things.

Related gripe, it got cold last week and snowed over the weekend which resulted in my car now needing lots of repairs.

It is 2020 and we still don't have the technology to make mass produced and affordable cars that requires no routine maintenance to do normal highway driving.

Apparently if you only include "menuentry" fields in your grub.cfg file, it boots up in "blind mode" without any video. You learn something new everyday.

Fixing a bug in your code by understanding the problem and applying a solution to the existing code
Rewriting all of your code to fix a bug because you don't trust the author

Me: Help, I have no time for my current side projects because I keep picking up new side projects.

Them: Just stop picking up new ones and work through the ones you already have?

Me: No.

Trying to optimize the code in my project to work better at scale a year into development is much easier said than done

Geographically? I'm from the Midwest in the US.

@design_RG
I like the concept of the #fediverse, but initially had a slow start trying to find a community that fits me. So far qoto is the best match I've found.

@Sphinx

@Sphinx @design_RG Thanks! I've been enjoying it here so far 😀

@yaco Yep! I have a refurbished 3rd generation X1 Carbon at home.

@design_RG Nah, just stumbled across the network a few days ago, so I'm still new here.

Finally, a version of Firefox with Picture-in-Picture built in! I've been missing this since the Test Pilot for Min Vid ended.
