Thanks for explaining, I didn’t think you were insinuating that they were lying at all! I may have been overly influenced by another comment

+1. I do believe the user you are replying to but I believe you too. People can have different experiences without lying or being disingenuous. I’m probably more tech-savvy than the average user but far below average for programming.dev or a Linux community. For me, Linux Just Works out of the box, but I admit I’m on a gaming-specific distro (Nobara, a Fedora derivative) and I’m only using it to be a gaming computer. Sometimes it opens a web browser. Art, music, programming, printing all happen somewhere else (my Mac).

My UI could be prettier but it is not distractingly bad or ugly. Just changed my wallpaper and that’s probably the only visual customization I’ll do.

Best guess: it’s like the innocuous “wrong number” scam or the looking for love email scams. Talk with “her”, form a “friendship” or “romance” until she has your trust enough to sucker you into buying whatever scam bitcoin or sending money.

As a Real Woman™ I would never send a blurry candid to introduce my face. The poor lady who got her picture stolen (maybe this is a video screenshot?) probably has nicer shots of herself. Ironically the spammer trying to seem “authentic” with this picture just makes her feel faker. I imagine most people want to put our best foot forward and make a good impression, hence a nice picture.

Not sure why this is being downvoted. My main takeaway is just that while taking a break works for a lot of people a lot of the time, for this person sometimes it doesn’t.

People are different and sometimes if you are new to something, it’s helpful to see both the popular advice (take a break) and that it might not always work for some people (this poster).

I made a burner gmail semi-recently (in past 2.5 years) without giving them a phone number, but things might have changed since…

Hope you’re being facetious, if your spouse genuinely doesn’t respect your time and need for silence at certain times that sounds like a relationship issue.

for people out of the loop, unironically this

Curious if you found the documentation on the Godot website insufficient. Dipping my toes into Godot for the first time here. I learn well by example.

That’s exactly what I got too

I was tagged, immediately clicked to see the link so I could report abuse, and got a 404. Very fast response. I appreciate that and the message Codeberg sent out that OP posted here. Came to p.d to see if anyone posted it yet.

Users can subscribe to a hidden community to remove the hidden effect status of a community

So if a user subscribes to a hidden community, it will not be hidden for them anymore. But will it be unhidden for everyone else too? Would it start showing up in local feeds?

I saw someone saying AI “Apparently AI goes hand in hand with wokeism.”

Meanwhile, I’ve seen quite a few complaints from the types this person dismisses as “woke” about AI. Is there more left-leaning approval from AI than I think there is, and more right-leaning disdain for it than I think there is?

Usually people who explain “woke” in such a manner seem to be the types who are actively hostile to LGBTQ+. There are a few LGBTQ+ people who do make it their entire identity instead of one facet of themselves and I understand how annoying that can be, but at this point I’m a lot less likely to believe “this is someone who turns ‘How is the weather today?’ with a stranger into a trans rights discussion” and more likely to believe “this person just hates trans people and is trying to frame the trans person poorly so I resent the trans person and not them.”

Adult woman checking in. Aside from the feet in the air, this is my preferred programming posture! I hold this position easily for hours before getting sore elbows.

I am also small and a young adult not too many years away from teenagerhood. I hope your comment never becomes true for me with age. Looks like as long as I just maintain weight I should probably be safe, my shoulders are not getting any wider any time soon.

What is this a screenshot of?

I once saw something about how if you are trying to build it yourself instead of using a pre-existing library you come off arrogant.

Can I build it better? Probably not. But do I want to deal with a dependency in my fun side project (unfun), when I could just build it myself (fun)? No.

I probably should to get more practice with it so it is less painful, but…

1. What does my project do?
2. Can I express that in a concise way?
3. Can I make it cutesy and memorable? Maybe with a fun acronym or alliteration?

If I can’t come up with anything I like, this is one of the only few areas in my life where I am comfortable asking AI. I am also very bad at names. But you already did that step, so sorry that that is not too helpful!

git add . > git commit -m "initial" > git push

Later when I git status or just look at the repo online… “oh crap I let .DS_Store in didn’t I…” and then I remember to set up a .gitignore and make a new commit to take out the .DS_Store and put in the .gitignore.
