  • Things are so tight that 1 streaming service would be an irresponsible expense for me. $15/month for an expense that can be circumvented if you’re smart, its a no brainer. I feel like society has done more harm to me than any amount of piracy will ever do to them. Where are all these high paying jobs I was promised I could have if I got a degree, huh? I’m worse off now than before I made the decision to go to school. It’s pirated or nothing for me but it’s also more convenient. That enshittified corporate ui shit is slow.






  • Has anyone tried just moving to the bigger screen? It’s easy to doomscroll on a phone but when I have an entire KDE desktop in front of me, it just doesn’t hit the same. Try browsing lemmy on your pc instead of phone. It feels nostalgic. Like 2000s forums where you’d post a computer question and everyone would call you gay. Now instead of gay being a bad thing there’s femboys and it’s amazing because all the nsfw content is better now.





  • There have been too many fucking times where I worked on an assignment, finished it, forgot to submit and then didn’t remember that until midnight. Ive made it with seconds to spare before but I’ve also missed it by tens of minutes. There was at least one time (that I can think of) where I got a zero for submitting single-digit amounts of minutes late before and the professor wasn’t hearing any of it. I think it was either 12:03 or 12:05.




  • I do a lot of c++ and c# stuff. That feature where it opens a list of all the member functions and or variables of a given class or data type, the part where it underlines incorrect code as well as the thing that adds tooltip type documentation with comments to everything you hover your mouse over is invaluable.

    The idea that there are people who program without that type of thing blows my mind. I can’t just memorize the entire code base myself 🤷 if I had to search the source code to verify every little thing every single time, it would take ages to get anything done.

    I only use Linux and I don’t know what I’ll do when Microsoft eventually takes vs code away from us, whether by making it paid or dropping linux compatibility. I guess I’ll have to pirate the jetbrains software or something.
