Luna

I kinda just accepted that it exists. Governments literally have hardware-level backdoors in most consumer computers (Intel ME, AMD PSP, etc). There isn’t really anything you can do about that if you don’t want to cut off yourself from society. I will still pick low-hanging fruit of course, but most of my “opsec” effort is focused on not giving corporations any data

“Those who never try, never find out”

I’ve seen that blog post. Tbh Vaxry is kinda unhinged. I think he cares about Cosmic being written in Rust more than the “rust cultists” themselves :P

Gnome. I actually started with KDE. It’s a good DE, but it’s got so many options that I had choice fatigue. I constantly tweaked my taskbar instead of focusing on what I wanted to do. And it was easy to get it to a “looks broken” state

When I tried Gnome, I fell in love with it. I love the unique workflow, lack of distractions, the modern adwaita design, etc. Everything felt so polished

That being said, I don’t like how Gnome devs seemingly can’t agree on anything with other desktop environments. And I don’t like how they refuse to support server-side window decorations. Like, I agree with them that CSD are better than SSD, but it would be reasonable to support SSD for toolkits that haven’t/don’t want to implement CSD themselves, right?

I’m excited for Cosmic. It looks like it combines the best of Gnome and KDE, and the devs don’t have the “my way or the highway” mindset

~/projects for things I made

~/git for things other people made

I just use Jerboa since that was the most mature app when the Reddit drama happened. I haven’t tried other clients because it’s Good Enough™ for me

I generally just use gender neutral language. I would check the person’s bio before using a phrase like that tho, especially if they have a trans flag emoji in their name

That being said, getting banned/restricted for that comment alone seems a bit extreme to me tho

Polish (my native language) and english (duh). I also want to learn lojban for fun, but I keep procrastinating

TIL about aphantasia

Anyways, I’m between 1 - 2, and I just wanted to say that just bc I can visualize things in my head doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy seeing things with my eyes. If I was good at drawing, I definitely would draw my OCs and such

But no, I don’t watch adult videos. I just don’t really like nsfw. Maybe I’m asexual or smt, idk

I prefer tabs because they aren’t consistent

I personally find 2-space indented code harder to read than 4-space. If I’m working on someone else’s codebase which is indented with 2-spaces then I have to cope. But if it’s tab-indented then I can just edit the setting in my editor to display a tab char as 4 whitespace chars

Uses spaces instead of tabs.

Not really surprising considering that (IIRC) it’s the default on the Gnome variants of Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora

But keep in mind that voluntary data tends to be pretty skewed

Smoking. It’s literally a drug and causes lots of health issues like increased lung cancer risk, but the worst part is that if someone smokes near you then you also inhale some of the toxins even if you yourself don’t smoke. And in my country it’s common to see people smoking on the streets. Combine this with air pollution and yikes
