  Unless you’re overlocking or just have really bad case design, either one will fair about the same. I went with an AIO purely for the aesthetic and haven’t had a single issue. Install was pretty easy too. I haven’t heard many horror stories of the AIO loops failing catastrophically but that’s anecdotal at best.

  I’ve watched Casablanca so that was sort of a given going into it.

  I love the idea behind LaTeX, but one of the things I struggle with is that almost every other formatting language has a simple WYSIWYG editor available. I’ve searched quite a bit and they all seem to rely on a decent amount of pre-existing knowledge to get started.

  Is there something I’m missing or do I just have to power through the syntax? I personally struggle without being able to experiment with a GUI and work my way backwards.

  accusing Sony of trying to monopolise a part of popular culture

  Ah yes, the shared cultural heritage of robotic dinosaurs in a post apocalypse. I remember the stories we all shared around the campfire growing up.

  TGFM - Thank God for Markdown

  Seriously, though. 9 times out of 10, markdown has all the formatting I need for the task at hand. On the rare occasion I need something more, I’m glad I have access to Apple Pages, but it comes with its own set of unique challenges.

  I remember coming into my actualization in my late 20s and making the horrific realization that the vast majority of people never go through that.

  I legitimately think I might be part of the cause. I posted this just a day or two before they all flooded in: lemmy.world/post/39082487

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My Religion⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This right here I think is the ultimate way to practice religion. It’s an excellent framework for helping understand your connection to the universe and how your morality intertwines.

  I’ve been reading up on Taoism and one of the things I resonated with is that it accepts the idea that you can worship anything. Even a rock. It’s not about actually believing that the thing holds power, but rather allowing yourself to give in a bit to the universe in an understanding that you are ultimately powerless. You have to give up some of your agency to the idea that there is power beyond your control and understanding and you have to accept that.

  If you believe you’re an individual being separate from the world around you, the world will catch up to that idea. Aggressively. But if you accept that the world does not cater to you, and if you surrender some of that responsibility to a higher power, you’re not nearly as blindsided when the world finds you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linus Torvalds on a ridiculous job performance metric at tech companies and the prominent figure responsible for it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never had to code professionally, but even on my personal projects, I don’t want a single extra line in the program that doesn’t need to be there and I should be able to understand the purpose of every line years later.

  My eyes glaze over whenever I look at corporate code because there are so many moving parts at that scale all from different qualities of programming.

  I don’t know if this is a practical thought, but I really wish we could get away from every project being monstrously sized. I prefer small packaged ideas similar to terminal commands. Just because it has a GUI doesn’t mean you need to design every piece of software as if I’m going to spend a day in it. Just give me small, purpose-built tools I can understand and then stop eternally developing and adding features.

  To add to this, it seems that every company now makes one piece of software or 36 different softwares. If they make one piece of software, they endlessly pack it with features people don’t want and if they’re the latter, every piece of software is a hastily-cobbled-together half idea and they just move onto another piece of software. Is there really not a middle ground here?

  It all circles back to the mistake that was corporate social media and enragement-boosting. They made the system to get people addicted, but without considering, or outright ignoring, the cost.
