Because Lemmy isn't serving you content based on some convoluted marketing algorithm?

Studying and awk came up.

Spent about an hour and I see some useful commands that extend past what "cut" can do. But really when dealing with printf() format statements is anyone using awk scripts for this?

Or is everyone just using their familiar scripting language. I'd reach for Python for the problems being presented as useful for awk.

We have to stop identifying ownership with these billionaires and "their work" because it's not. It's a team of people who got together to accomplish a mission whether they succeeded or failed. How often is their success just a leader getting out of their way, and how often is failure because leadership was overbearing and "used their authority" to make poor decisions over the group.

"We" society only ever focus on these individuals and it's horribly incorrect to do so.

We need to forget the celebrities and identity the groups.

Half Life Alyx was sick and demonstrated everything VR could be. I will standby that statement and tolerate the flamers.

Can you give a specific reason?

I feel that I'm usually more upset that apps choose electron and I have performance issue because they didn't spend time writing a proper lightweight desktop application. I feel like Calibre is actually one of those apps.

I could see portability across devices being useful but is the Calibre interface really going to be conducive for that?

For the first time in my career I'm actually not in this position. Found an employer that's an ex engineer and just "gets it". Good compensation, good benefits, and invests in all of our understanding and careers. Sucks seeing all the people just let go so I'm surprised this survey has this result.

Maybe it was conducted before this season of let gos.

So wallpapers, clock changes on lock screen, and updated credential manager which I assume is the latest push for Passkeys.

That qualifies a major version change? It kinda sucks that we've stagnated in mobile OS improvements. You just don't really see anything radically different or innovative anymore.

They ruined my favorite show on Netflix by taking out Henry Cavil. So when they stopped account sharing I decided to not get an account and just stick with Hulu.

Might get rid of all the TV's out of the house anyway. Screw em all.

I mean this isn't unprecedented. Blackwater exists in the United States, hell you even have the Pinkertons, if you go back the revolutionary war the Brits used the Hessians to fight.

Mercenary is one of the oldest professions.

Has anyone else noticed an absence of new releases on PCVR?

I feel like the latest game was Ghosts of Tabor and everything else came out 2022 or earlier.

What are your favorite resources to recommend for beginners?

I'm wanting to get interested for doing a cyberdeck case, and/or custom cluster racks for Raspberry Pi's but any and all newbie resources would be appropriate for this question.
