Yeah i won’t go a ton into detail, but he (i wont say which one out of the 2 main guys) had an interesting relationship with his girlfriend at the time, so he threw some cash my way for me to do her in front of him. It wasn’t like too weird or like the cuck thing, they were just really a horny couple and w me being a cute young short guy on a girl cosplay… Well seems they love having fun haha. They were super respectful and we had lunch together watching rick and morty before getting it on. Also they love playing the stock market, this godot guy told me he over estimates consulting jobs for big companies (2 weeks for a thing that takes him like 3-4 days) and then he spends the rest of the time playing with stocks, he tried to explain it to me but it was super complicated for my small brain. TLDR: godot guys are chill af

I mean we are already halfway there, i had to do a thing with my mobile phone provider, i had to talk to a computer for 4 full hours before i was finally connected with a human, i think this is more likely, it will just get longer, maybe you’ll need 6 hours or days of talking to an AI and then they might connect you to a human

I’ll say something stupid here, are drunk driving accidents just because the guy was slightly drunk or because he wasn’t skilled enough at driving? I’d bet an f1 driver could survive driving on a regular neighborhood off skill alone, while a regular person could prob crash and burn. I think being homeless is the same as drinking alcohol while driving, the alcohol being the social difficulties/outside circumstances and then your personal skill in managing life/jobs. I think it’s both, but after you become homeless for a while, its harder to get back on track so you can spiral down and then it’s harder.

After all the dumb changes to reddit and surveillance in general I decided to try and look for an alternative, If I knew it was this easy to get into lemmy I would’ve done it SO much sooner. Also i think this is my first day here? And every time I posted something I got a TON of responses, like I could argue even more attention than I would get on reddit, also the responses were better? Like what? How? There’s way less users here… Just imagine if Lemmy grew just a bit more, doesn’t need to beat reddit at all, just to grow a bit more (with good users ofc) That would be insane, Im having way more fun here already, the community is so much better, the only thing im missing/haven’t found yet, is those r4r reddit-like forums where you get to meet people to dm and stuff

I was setting up mint for my mom the other day, and put kernel 7 on it, i thing it has been enabled recently as an option.

damn really? I’d never would have guessed that

yea I don’t wanna change just to be hip, I literally don’t know the differences between distros, I’m just wondering if I’m missing out on something, not in like the way gui and animations works, but the other stuff

Oh I know godot, I met the guy who made it… on grindr of all places haha

I appreciate the tip, I might end up on python, seems interesting and fast (to write not run lol)

seems python is super popular too, can you build nice UI’s with it? I mostly see python on AI stuff and cli

While it might not be the hardest part, I do feel it is a factor, so all things being equal i think it can help to choose a good first programming language that will help out the on-boarding process.

I don’t really like mobile, even less with all the constant changes towards (more) mobile surveillance, i just included it as another versatility thing (in case i ever need to build mobile) but python can be used to build things with UI? like with a good way to write UI for your programs? I see python mostly on cli

gatekeeping the queer community off of tech, i see how it is… only cis people allowed to code /s

what would you personally consider a better language? like which ones would you recommend for someone starting out?

I’ll second this, after distro hopping a bit at the beginning I ended up choosing Mint, it works and with i3 its like 500mb of idle ram, so far I haven’t found any reason to switch to a less user friendly distro, I don’t know what the advantages would be in using a more complicated/prone to breaking distro instead of mint. I’m open to switching though if I find something I like more, but Mint is amazing as a gateway drug distro, made coming over to linux SO much better, now I’m slowly infecting my family computers with mint aswell, gotta spread the virus

mhmm! that’s the basic rationale i had when trying to learn one general language at the beginning, It won’t be optimal but who cares? I’d rather be able to build more mediocre things broadly than only knowing one thing. Kinda how you start out with Ryu or Ken on street fighter games even if they are in the middle of the tierlist just because they have a bit of everything on their kit

As a newbie the quick visual feedback of building stuff on web is nice to have, but maybe I should do python instead with some kind of ui thing? I do want to end up working in tech I’d say asap but its not the “starving and i mean money right now” asap, but like, not wasting unnecessary time.

Mhmm, but to start out i feel its best to focus in one programming language only, if under those parameters python/c (whatever c variant) are better than javascript, while it might be better in theory to use the right tool for the job, that takes way more time than doing everything with a less optimal more generalized tool (i think)

so python/c can be used for web/backend desktop gui apps, mobile apps and games? I’m not talking just about what’s the “best” language but the more versatile, also i haven’t included it, but speed of development (how long it takes to write the code for the programmer) is also a plus

Microdonations, I don’t feel one person consumes that much server resources (I FEEL I don’t know, the rest of the message lives off of this assumption) So like if you have 100.000 users paying 0,50 cents a month you have 50,000usd to pay for server costs, maybe it is expensive but I have a feeling it doesn’t cost 50k a month to support 100k users (talking more about lemmy or some social media like app not a live service for something like a videogame)
