TheTrueLinuxDev,

Yeah, I actually stop going out for any restaurant or outing ever since the tip inflation went out of control. I just rather spend the money on a cooking class and cook things myself. I really encourage everyone else to do the same, you save a lot of money, and you can add whatever creativity you want to the meal.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Sure, you can find me on the following GPS coordination: 19°24'23.0"N 155°16'59.7"W

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Honestly for me, Splatoon is unplayable, because the game is peer to peer and it isn't running on a server. If the host is malicious, he could just depeer you during a match and win the match every time. It have happened too many times on Splatoon 2 for me that I gave up on splatoon, so bring on the copycat games that have the potential of NOT running on peer to peer networking.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

I always thought about how almost every country in the world never really added anything related to accountability in the constitution, for instance, in the USA, it almost always try to assume someone is acting in good faith even on the most important political function of the country. If we have more tools given to average people, it is possible to rein in the system.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

The main reason why one would want to use C is likely Foreign Function Interface (FFI), whatever code you write in C (apart from emitting assemblies) would likely be usable and extensible from any other programming languages so long that some of the conventions are followed. Rust and C++ could likely produce code just as fast as well optimized C code, but inaccessible or not readily accessible to other programming languages IE Name Mangling that are compiler implementation dependent, missing FFI access to STL and Traits and so forth. If it was readily accessible, then I would ask where is QT API (complete API access, not API-Lite) access for any other programming language.

FFI is pretty much the only reason why I am still writing in C in a very large project like GUI Toolkit to replace GTK and QT by using Vulkan. I would not recommend doing what I do when it come to implementing OOP manually in C to ensure that other programming language could extend my library. (I would write VTable manually and establish some of the OOP paradigms. C compiler does extremely well when optimizing out virtual dispatches to static dispatch.)

That's about it, as you said, it have a lot of hassles in C, so that why I am now working on Compiler Generator to create dialects on top of C similarly to MLIR so it would compile to readable C at the end of it as well as generating LSP server, FFI-JSON, and other things for it.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Just want to point out that we already have a Star Trek mod for Stellaris and it is still actively maintained by the community. It already have custom models, lore, species, and everything else in the game anyway. It offers more than what I would suspects that this game would offer:

Seriously, try it out.

I don't think "command line hard" is the worst part of self-hosting.

I've seen a lot of people saying things that amount to "those tech nerds need to understand that nobody wants to use the command line!", but I don't actually think that's the hardest part of self-hosting today. I mean, even with a really slick GUI like ASUSTOR NASes provide, getting a reliable, non-NATed connection, with an SSL...

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Especially when it's extremely rare to find documentation that aren't intended on being too verbose. Documentation with bottom line up front writing style is a rarity.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

I would have to agree on this, it seems rather odd if the code repo is confidential or classified to be shared on a Windows Share. The reason why we would use Git services (self-hosted) is so that we have multitude of security services/layers maintained by dedicated team of system administrators such as firewall, service update, data redundancy, backup, active directory and so forth.

I can see a scenario where people accidentally put classified repos or information that aren't supposed to be shared on Windows Share where unauthorized users could view that repos.

It IS 4th amendment violation, period. It just that we're suffering from the repercussion of the fundamental problem with Common Law (USA and UK) vs Civil Law (Rest of Europe except UK.)

Reference on this. And scroll down and you'll see a row saying "Constitution: Always (For Civil Law) and Not Always (For Common Law.)

In a court of law, they make it a legal-game-scenario where constitutional rights aren't automatically applied to you and you have to explicitly invoked it at the right time. That kind of crap is asinine and why I think we need an overhaul politically.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Well, I doubt it'll stay on top forever as it very clearly shows that it's in the process of enshittification.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Yep, this is why we wanted progressivism in politic, the main takeaway is accountability.

  1. Proportional voting or Alternative voting - Abolish Gerrymandering altogether
  2. Abolish Police Union - Civilian oversight on police
  3. If police commits crime, multiply the punishment of the crime by 5 for abuse of authority and require that they completes 4 years of education to be a police officer.
  4. Terms Limit for Politician
  5. Supreme Court have term limit, not for life and must be voted in by the people and required a history of being a good citizen and a good judge for majority of their career, period.
  6. Implement the proposed FDR Bill of Rights

PostgreSQL is tricky to get right and I can't fault anyone for wanting different solution like RabbitMQ to workaround it. One of the thing I did back in the day was that when dealing with high-write traffic and the data itself is not mission critical, I would set up a tmpfs on Linux for specified amount of RAM to serves as a cache to create a duplicate of the same data table used for storing on SSD/HDD and then I create a view that combines them both where it would check the cache first before querying the HDD/SSD.

During an insert/update statement, it would trigger a condition that increment a variable (semaphore) and if reached a certain value, it would run a partitioned check on the cache table and scan for any old data that aren't in active use based on timestamp and then have those written to HDD/SSD as well as writing to HDD/SSD if the data have been on cache long enough. Doing it this way, i was able to increase the throughput more than a 100 folds and still have data that can be retained on database.

Obviously, there are going to be some additional risks incurred by doing this like putting your data on a volatile memory although it's less of a risk on ECC Memory on Servers. If the power goes out, whatever stored on the RAM would be gone, so I assumed in cloud they would have backup power and other solutions in place to ensure it doesn't happen. They might have a network outage, but it's rare for servers to do a hard fail.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Honestly a fan of the idea of EV Conversion, because at least I would be 100% in control of that car and that it would have no unnecessary gimmicks added to the car. (Even better that you don't have to pay any subscription.)

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Nah, the political body in NATO would determine whether the Article 5 invocation is valid or not. Article 5 over civilian throwing rock at the border guard? Unlikely. Poland would likely drag the diplomat from Belarus into the room and demand bringing those offenders before the International Court of law like ICJ, ICC, ECHR, or just a tribunal.

If Belarus doesn't comply, then it can face severe sanctions, diplomacy pressure, increased border guard presence at the border, and so forth.

The rule of thumb when reasoning about which options might be used in such situation, the most boring one is probably the one. War is basically the absolute last resort of just about any circumstances.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Sometime there is no rationality in those people/political party, they exist just to be destructive and promote hatred no matter the reason.

They wanted to promote child marriage.

They wanted to rape children and get away with it by forcing them to marry them.

They wanted to take out PPP loan on younger generations and tell them to go and fucking die.

They wanted to deny student loan relief, even if there are provable economic boon in doing so, because they exist to hate people no matter what.

They want to ban abortion without giving any exception even for raped victim or a miscarriage.

I could go on and on and on about it. Sometime, there is no reasoning with monsters and they need to be destroyed, period.

I do not advise going to college for programming degree, it could easily be the worst financial decision especially now that the jobs and pays are not guaranteed anymore, programming positions are getting flooded and wage are tanking. More often than not, college does not teach you standard practices in the industry, the tech stacks that we use, and so forth.

My advice instead is to get some certifications for programming or system administration and save up for like a $7000 classroom course for some of those certifications, it's expensive, but helluva a lot cheaper than college at least. Once you have the certification and some basic understanding, do some projects like:

If you're system admin, try and set up a whole new office network by configuring the routers, firewall, group policies, ADAP, RADIUS, and so go on and so forth. Get comfortable doing it in a virtual setup.

if you're programmer, try and develop some common web applications since that is easily 90% of the job in programming nowaday, it almost always going to be web application everywhere you go.

TheTrueLinuxDev, (edited )

Notice how 90% of that are rich people causing or amplifying those situations to happen?

COVID - Trump sabotage any effort made to prevent the spread and we lost 1 million people due to that.

Climate Crisis - Oil Giants sabotage the public transportation which would have a long term ramification to reduce oil consumption overall.

Nazis/Fascism - Rich People fund/outright purchase mass media to create chaos in public perspectives and polarize the political parties. Koch Brothers are funding far right politic and pushing hard for nazism.

Ukraine - Putin and the Oligarch

I could go on. Almost all of the problems begin and end with the rich people.

TheTrueLinuxDev,

It's about $30,400 for 4 years study, so it's not as bad as other college courses could've been. That a good option, I might consider doing that then. Thank you :)

TheTrueLinuxDev,

Yeah, you could get that in USA as well, it was more a convenience to have driver license in the USA.
