  • Right? No way this could possibly backfire. Unless, of course, that's the intended outcome.

  • Like Silverlight but WASM? Hope it shares the same fate.

  • Interesting take on the sci-fi horror genre 😁

  • You don't? Then why?

  • I don't like this type of question. In my experience knowing one language has little impact on learning another. What matters much more is understanding the underlying concepts.
    If you grok OOP it doesn't matter if you go from Java to C# or from C++ to Python. Yes, there are differences, but they're mostly syntactic in nature.
    So assuming you got the hang of imperative programming and maybe had some exposure to functional programming, too, the concept you're likely to struggle with the most is ownership. Simply because it's a concept that's fairly unique to Rust.
    Having come from Java, via C++ and Python and having dabbled with Haskell a bit, I feel like The Book does a decent job of explaining Rust in general and its oddities in particular.

  • How so?

  • The Swedish government can go suck a lemon.

  • Because R is incredibly clunky. I've worked with both and never got the hang of R.

  • Of course. But on the end it boils down to: company does something I don't condone, so I don't give them money.

  • the fact that even a small political stand that someone dont agree with can turn them against a company or even a person is crazy to me

    Why? I try not to buy from companies that employ child or slave labour (Nestlé) or drain the water supply in drought regions (also Nestlé) or companies that support fascists (Müller and apparently Proton) because voting with my wallet is the only choice I have for even a slim chance of making my opinion heard in this capitalist hellscape.

  • You mean missing documentation?

  • Yes. But Proton is just wine with extra patches. And many eventually find their way into upstream wine.

  • What I find even more amazing is that with some regularity the windows versions run better (faster, fewer issues) in wine than on native windows. Used to happen more frequently when DX12 was still fairly fresh, but still happens.

  • Does Fwy usually speak of themselves in third person?

  • Oh, don't get me wrong. Chrome and derivates are also terrible for spying on your every click. And unless it's a de-Googled chromium fork it absolutely still phones home to Google. Not quite as much as chrome, but still quite a bit.

  • Except it kinda does. It reinforces the dominant position Chrome has. A browser mono-culture, if you will. Google doesn't need to go through proper channels to establish a new standard if they can just set the de-facto-standard by supporting or, maybe more important, not supporting something in Chrome. And since Manifest v3 ad-blockers and other content filters are severely hampered, which only serves Google's ad-revenue but also hinders accessibility extensions. Mono-cultures just aren't healthy.

  • Also I think most people do change there default browser but they change it to Chrome ):

    They don't need to change it to chrome, they're already using it. Every browser except for Firefox, with its derivatives, and Safari are Chrome. Plus a few more esoteric choices that are nowhere near daily-driver ready.

    Lacto-fermented Thai- & Cayenne-chili sauce

    Fermented with black cardamom and garlic (which I'm just noticing I forgot to put on the label 🤷) and puréed with mango and pear.
    Added a little rice vinegar and salt to balance the fruit.
    It's a little spicier than Sriracha, but not at all unpleasant. Nicely sweet and spicy. You can taste it with a spoon without regretting it.

    Anyone using WireGuard through plain systemd-networkd?

    I'm trying to get networkd to connect to a wireguard endpoint, specifically ProtonVPN, in case it matters. I just can't get it to connect. Has anyone had success with that? Specifically without using wg-quick.

    Looking to transfer our lease in Petite-Patrie

    Looking for someone to take over our lease for a 3 1/2 apartment in Petite-Patrie (H2S) starting February 1st 2024.
    Lease goes until 31st of October 2024 with option of renewal.
    Monthly rent is $1665 including hot water and parking behind the house (electric bill is extra).

    The apartment was completely renovated in 2018 with new isolation, windows and doors. It is on the ground floor, very quiet and in walking distance to metro stations (Fabre and Beaubien), supermarkets, cafés and shops.
    The bedroom and office both have built-in storage closets. You have full access to the garden in the back and can use it as you wish. Cats are no problem but you will have to check for other pets.
    Appliances are NOT included in the lease and we bought them new in 2018 (Stove, fridge with freezer drawer, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer). All are good quality appliances (Whirlpool, Maytag) that work great and we'd prefer them taken over from us (price is negotiable).
    All our furniture i
