I did my math wrong lol. Hm. I guess that just seems really high to me. Like, if you’re in federal court, then you definitely should take it to trial, as you’ve got a super high chance of getting out of it. From the title of the article it just seemed way worse.

Doesn’t that article indicate that if you go to trial you have about a 25% chance of being acquitted?

You can replace almost all aspects of oh my zsh just by using fish shell. Like straight out of the box it does most of it. I switched off of a completely customized zsh (oh my zsh didn’t do enough for me) and fish is able to do everything I did with my custom zsh setup.

you’re welcome

You can also read my post I made for the programming.dev instance here. https://programming.dev/post/497263

Oh no I have to mod a config file to make it do what I want…why can’t the devs just read my mind???

nobody has to read anyone’s removeding mind, why can’t you just make it a removeding settings menu? You’re the ones making it HARDER TO EVANGELIZE FOSS. For removed’s sake! You’re entirely missing the point!

If you’re the kind of helpless person who has to be spoon fed answers, then perhaps Linux or FOSS isn’t for you, and other alternatives exist that have professional support staffs.

you’re the exact kind of person making FOSS look bad to the majority of people. Since you don’t seem to realize, I run the programming.dev instance. I most likely have been working in tech longer than you. This kind of attitude you have towards “people should just learn everything about every piece of software they use” is why people like you shouldn’t be near open source software at all. You make it removeding impossible for people like me to get anyone to even try FOSS because all they remember are morons like you saying “just figure it out”. I’m not going to teach my mother in law what a removeding flatpak is and there is absoremovedinglutely no way that she is going to be able to google it and figure it out. It has nothing to do with learned helplessness. It has to do with the fact that she’s a painter, not a tech guru, and gatekeeping FOSS by purposefully making it hard to use is such an idiotic thing I have no clue how you could even defend it. Your actions make big tech companies become more entrenched in people’s lives. It is by your hand that people don’t want to use things like Firefox.

I making a point that you seem to be missing. If you have to point out some way to get around a problem that any given user will have with a piece of software, then that’s why your software is not being used. This is the continual problem with the Linux community, they think that everyone wants to learn this stuff. Most people just want their software to work. They don’t want to have to do any sort of googling to figure out why it’s crashing or why it’s running slow or why it doesn’t have this or that feature. Every time someone like you tries to point out that someone can just google something you lose another person that may have been willing to use FOSS in the future. Instead, maybe go try to fix their problem because they sure as hell aren’t going to.

What’s flatpak and why in the world would I need to know about it in order to use a cad program? Do you see why people don’t use this stuff?

You can still recover.

Lemmy will mark your instance as forgotten in 3 days if I remember correctly

!shell@programming.dev

I’m absolutely terrible at nginx. Can you share the config you used for your hosted version?
