Then nothing will ever improve or get done, because perfection is a myth that varies from person to person and even at it’s base definition (the quality or state of being perfect: such as freedom from fault or defect) is an impossibilty since anything created by man is gonna be as faulty as we are…and for those that choose to follow it, what happens is they become hard procrastinators, because they’re setting stupidly high standards for themselves or others that border on impossible to keep.
There’s a reason why saying like “perfection is the enemy of good/ finished” and “aim for good, not perfect” exist.
Not even gonna touch on morality. That’s a whole other can of worms I’m too exhausted to open.
…smart. i like the way ya think lol
Ace guy here, and I usually offer to pay. It’s not a hard rule or anything, it’s just something i was taught to do by my ma and sisters, but If it doesn’t jive with them and they’d rather go half and half or pay for their own meal, that’s perfectly cool too.
Some of em, yeah. Most of them are/were strictly homegirls tho.
Thanks for the good vibes, internet stranger. Also for spitting straight facts: world always seems to be “falling apart, for reals this time” every other decade since…forever, and yet we’re still here doing the best we can.
IDK, if both my very-much-not-so tech savy siblings, mother, and even an idiot like myself can all pick up and use it with very few, if any, hiccups, then “user expierence” on Linux is…
Not hard. Or, well, in general as well. The more I hear people go “Learning Linux is hard” and hear them out, the more I’ve come to realize they’re actually trying to say “Unlearning Windows is hard”. Which is absolutely true, considering 95% of people use Windows basically out the womb…and then they keep using it/put up with it no matter what unless you’re like one of my old professors who didn’t “need windows” for his work (and used Mac all the way), or like me and several others who got tired of Windows constantly messing up on me–or being invasive of your privacy, bloated, all of the above. Take your pick–enough where I just said “you know what, no. I have options besides basically throwing dice at the wall with this. They can’t be that bad.” (spoiler alert: they weren’t bad at all).
And again, unless you’re throwing yourself off the Linux deep end from second one and trying to build the system from scratch or compile Gentoo by yourself, learning it isn’t this grueling, impossible task. Plus there’s free resourses that can make it even simpler for you if you want to more than learn as you go. There’s growing pains, yeah, but no different than learning anything new in life
Gotta disagree. Even with following a handful Linux groups on here, there’s several other topics and discussions that quickly dominate my feed, from games, to music, books and comics, to pets doing adorable things, to anime, and TTRPG stuff (…and Star Trek. Now that’s something i can’t seem to escape on The Fediverse and makes me feel just a tiny bit left out because I’m not really into lol). Then again, it’s up to you what you see since the user is in full control of what they allow or block in thier feed.
So curate until you barely see any Linux, if that’s what ya fancy.
“No.”
–Withers, most likely
Well…good to know I dodged a magic missle there by declining the offer lol
Gotcha. No weaponizing Wizard Nuke. Ah well, I’ll have to get creative some other way
Oh no, it’s a literally nuke. I used it once outta curiosity, and…well you can guess what happened lol
I had a thought today tho like narratively, it’s a big ol’ “I goofed up and am ready to end it all” button, but i wondered if it was feasible to have my party survive that somehow in gameplay. Just something to file away for latter, ya know
Is there an actual use to that skill during combat? Genuinely curious if I’m actually missing out on using Gale as a nuke for massive damage or if it’s just a straight up “I lose” button.
Depends. Do the people around you or your friends/family heavily use WhatsApp to stay in touch (Like, to the point of if you don’t have and use the thing, you’ve basically got no way to contact people)? If yes, well, I wouldn’t go as far as to call you stupid, but you did probably make your life harder for yourself unless you’re a hermit.
Sometimes ya just gotta bite the bullet and understand that absolutes aren’t possible. Or, they are possible, but they’re more impractical than they’re worth
And then he goes like “I see you found someone else. Who am I to stand in the way?” after I make it official with the person I’m actually trying to get with.
It’s like my man, we’re homies at best. I shot you down every time, I made it clear I was into Shadowheart to others with you standing right there…what do you mean “I am no longer the cause of the twinkle in your eyes”? I mean, you’re my bro and I care about you, but not like that lol
Dare I ask why not?
I just don’t like how you get around in an iphone. Admittedly, I haven’t used Macs in a very long time, so maybe they’re pretty good nowadays (I still hear you can’t upgrade them at all tho, sooo…maybe not?), but most of it comes down to me feeling lost navigating the thing.
The other thing is how expensive Apple Products are in comparison to the competition, and the walled garden thing they got going on. Androids are just easier to move around in, cheaper, and give me more control over my device. That’s the other big thing that steers me away from iphones: I pay more for a “premium” product and get a lack of control over it.
On android: If I wanna not use the Play Store, I can ignore it and use something else, if I don’t like the stock apps, i can look for replacements that do suit my tastes (tbf, I can do this on Apple too, but there isn’t much by comparison), if I wanna install a custom ROM, I can install it, if I wanna root the thing and sideline apps while I’m at it, I can, if I want to brick my phone…I’m an idiot, but I have that option. I can do none of that, or do some of it in a limited way, on an iphone.
Pretty much, I don’t like how unintuitive the UI is, how restricting the system feels to me, and the company’s overall anti consumer stance
No, worries, nothing to apologize for, honestly!
As far as I’m aware, I think just walking away from a sea lion is the best course of action. Except, well, I wasn’t sealioning.
I gave him the chance to explain what I was missing was ONCE(and literally going “I’m not picking a fight or being a smartass, just curious of where my screwup was”), and he just threw “figure it out” at me …tbf, I did basically prove his original statement wrong, so it could’ve been that
Now that’s art, if I do say so myself
That was…stupidly easy lol Thank you so much!
