    • A non-AI generated image - it communicates to artists that they’re not welcome, while Linux is getting there in support for artists (Krita, LMMS, etc.).
    • A debugger with a GUI - no, I don’t care about writing shell scripts to automate debugging.
    • Server-side decorations on Gnome - just add an option for it FFS!
    • A way to easily recover from a crash during an update - I was lucky that I could do it from the command line, but my Ubuntu still likes to crash the VM host if I open Nautilus.
    • Drivers.
    • Linux devs not throwing a temper tantrum for a driver not being GPL. I know, that would be the ideal, but corporations gonna corporate.

    Also web-native apps are a web 2.0 mistake, and lead to the abandonment of many portable GUI frameworks in favor of the “what if your pops didn’t had to install Word Processor, and instead just had to type wordprocessor.com into his browser” idea of some techbro. Do you know why your ÜBERGAMERMOUSE Ultrautility is 250+MB? Because they’re all Electron apps!





  • i know a lot of Hungarian nationalists like that, they’re on full copium while working abroads, because jobs at home doesn’t pay well.

    One another that haven’t left (yet) went from a botique guitar amplifier maker trying to cash in the “growing nationalism”, to a repairman, because artists of all kinds were either forced to scale back or even completely stop due to lack of funds and opportunities (artists that aren’t pledged loyalty to Fidesz are being repressed in every possible way), leave the country to escape all these horrors alongside stuff like the anti-gay law, or not wanting to relive communism by not buying the Marshall amps of their childhood dreams they had under the previous system.

    Why is multiple levels of indentation bad?

    IDK, but if the reason is “to break stuff into multiple functions”, then I’m not necessarily writing yet another single-use function just to avoid writing a comment, especially in time critical applications. Did that with a text parser that could get text formatting from a specifically written XML file, but mainly due to it being way less time critical, and had a lot of reused code via templates.
