I was trying to get an MR merged into a project, and I was banging my head against the wall because the CI tests was failing while it was working entirely fine on my computer.

I eventually figured out the reason was that my computer had a needed font installed, but CI didn't. Adding a QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont made it work.

Urgh.

am I paranoid for always putting any mod jar I build into Recaf just to check if I have a virus that automatically infects locally built mods

DataFixerUpper is the funniest library ever. single paragraph of documentation with an extremely load-bearing "(see references below)" parenthetical. the references consist of like 10 different category theory papers. it's for save file handling in a video game made for children. nobody on the development team understands it either

I find it weird that systemd's newly released factory reset support tells you that factory reset is "supported" even if the distro doesn't have any wiring for it, making factory reset more like "make my system unbootable"

Is there any database (or something?) of file names under $HOME and their classes (config or secret or cache or w/e)?

e.g. ~/.config/discord/Cache would be cache

how to convince people to move over to linux
"you have the freedom of doing what you want with your pc and with open source alternatives" ❌

  • too wordy
  • most people have no idea what that means
  • "what is linux"

"you can't run league of legends on it" ✅

  • straight to the point
  • very easy to understand
  • over half of the earth's population now use linux
