I wouldn’t worry at that. People said the same thing about Internet Explorer.

I have been burned out by project managers way too hard to have any respect for the capitalist tech world. I have 15 years of programming experience yet I’m literally looking for a job on a farm or warehouse.

For developers in similar situations, where the corporate overlords make your life miserable; use dead man’s triggers Instead of a simple killswitch: manually start handling certificates, introduce memory leaks that you can easily clear, have excessive disk filling logs that you can daily clear, and all kinds of other stuff that is a perpetual dumpster fire that you extinguish as part of your job. Oh, and don’t forget to forget commenting and documenting. The next developer should instantly learn the pressure they have been putting on you.

Belgium. For the Dutch speaking part there’s VDAB, which handles the path from unemployment to employment. They are the ones that help you get a job, which is a requirement for unemployment benefits, so they are quite active. They currently have 246 different types of jobs listed that need more people. This list is actively referenced to by schools, especially on the degrees that lead to a job in this list, as well as all the school counselors that help you figure out what you want. There’s also many jobs in the list that do not require a degree or course, often for less wanted jobs that are harder to find people for.

Where I live this is always mentioned. There are also many resources that list what jobs have too many people or not enough people. These are often linked to on the websites of schools right next to the degrees they offer. I remember being happy because the degree I went for had a gold star next to it telling me this is would lead to good job opportunities and a high pay. Also, the jobs with not enough people often have cheap or even free courses that are subsidized by my government. There was a big need for (well paid) underwater welders for example, and the full courses were completely free.
God I love socialism.

This isn’t a problem, because the profits of said AI tools go to the original developers. Right? RIGHT?
- Comment on YouTuber Faces Possible Jail Time for Reviewing Gaming Handhelds 1 month ago:
why target the youtuber though?
It’s the same taking the fight against drug dealers to the drug users. They don’t care about the lives they ruin as long as they can punish people.
- Comment on YouTuber Faces Possible Jail Time for Reviewing Gaming Handhelds 1 month ago:
The officials have access to the devices, they consumed the illegal content and then documented their findings. This is considered a review and the officials should be charged under the copyright law.

Hands-free calling is considered safe in most countries so I don’t really see this as a problem.
The bigger problem is the capitalist hellscape where you’re supposed to be on the road but also in meetings at the same time.

- Comment on Statement on Stop Killing Games - VIDEOGAMES EUROPE 2 months ago:
Private servers are not always a viable alternative option for players as the protections we put in place to secure players’ data, remove illegal content, and combat unsafe community content would not exist and would leave rights holders liable.
Incorrect. Only in a capitalist hellhole like America. In the rest of the world this would never be a problem. Just release the server code under MIT and let the community fix it. Also make sure you can manually setup a masterserver in the game itself, or implement direct connect functionality.
many titles are designed from the ground-up to be online-only; in effect, these proposals would curtail developer choice by making these video games prohibitively expensive to create.
Same answer as before. Release the online part under the MIT license. Not your problem anymore at that point. You can still require an original game license for the game itself. We’re only talking about the server software here.
We welcome the opportunity to discuss our position with policy makers and those who have led the European Citizens Initiative in the coming months.
We, the people, have been discussing this for at least a decade now. Get over it and stop trying you capitalist pigs.

Vencord is not an app by itself. It injects into Discord.
Vesktop is a client that comes with Vencord and is much easier to maintain, especially on Linux.
