Being an experienced dev or IT person does not give you permission to be rude to *your colleagues*

So when I'm coding C there's basically two things I find acceptable:

1. "I'm an IDE, don't worry about all that pesky command line stuff, we've got a nice GUI for you to set everything up like you want :)"

2. "I'm a shell. Use the command line if you wanna compile C. Fuck you"

The reason I hate Visual Studio Code is that it pretends to be #1 but in fact expects you to still know all the command line crap. But it doesn't stop there! Because even if you know the command line way of doing things is adds a layer of proprietary bullcrap between you and the compiler into which to pour your command line knowledge and no, fuck you vscode, I'm not going to learn a third layer just because you want to pretend to be a real IDE even though what you actually are is an overgrown fucking text editor

I wish you all a very gay June.

The Mirror aims to be a Roblox & UEFN alternative and now it's open source

Roblox and the Unreal Editor for Fortnite sure are popular, but you know what would be better? An open source project, where creators can actually own what they make rather than being attached to Roblox and Fortnite. The Mirror wants to change that.

Well, Google, ya gone and done it.

I just uninstalled Chrome, and installed Firefox. The last two days, YouTube turned to shit on me - won't load videos, is clearly heavily throttled. I switch to Firefox - YouTube works perfectly.

If you've been putting off abandoning Chrome, it's a LOT easier than I expected. Firefox imported my history, my logins/passwords, bookmarks, and so on. Completely painless. Chrome has become thoroughly enshittified. Leave it behind.
