Everyone should know most of the time the data is still there when a file is deleted. If it’s important try testdisk or photorec. If it’s critical pay for professional recovery.

… I don’t think anyone could mistake these for used tampons.

Eyyy it’s that post I saw a post about being posted

I think you need to start a project, accept it will be slow and painful, and don’t become an expert before you start, just use the skills you have and see where they take you. The only thing that matters in software is that it works. The definition of working changes over time, but get that first working version and you will keep going.

The less I think, the more it thinks

Hmm it’s almost like the feds need a union… … … … 👀

^r

😂 time to build your Linux from source!

This meme brought to you by outdated packages in the official repo

Because more eyes spot more bugs, supposedly. I believe it, running closed source software is truly insane

Billionaires only have power because people do things for them in exchange for money

Lol build something with serde and you’ll be hooked for life

Pretend it’s 1995 before I had Internet access

It sure would be a shame if his software was covered by the gpl because it’s statically linked against Qt or FFMpeg or any other library… 👀

Wtf kind of article is this? This would be a great example of sampling bias.

As a life360 user, I really don’t know how any reasonable person in the last 10 years could sign up and not know they’re selling location data. It’s a free service primarily designed to track your location. I didn’t read the terms, I just assumed it to be true.

I basically only use Lemmy. Since reddit first tried to restrict their API I’ve been outta there. Other that that I use Facebook for marketplace because less and less is on Craigslist

I only wish to have requirements at all

Don’t be confused by cached ram, be confused by the oom killer activating while you have plenty of swap and for some reason it kills the shell you ran Firefox from.

If you want to go on a memory allocation adventure try disabling memory overcommit 🥲

That’s the most difficult problem in hobby programming: finding a project. Most interesting things seem to complex to start.

The solution is to say f it I’m going to try. Right now I’m very slowly making progress learning Rust by writing a program to trade cryptocurrency. It took a while for me to even take my goals seriously as something I am capable of. It’s half gambling and half skills development but 100% interesting enough that I have consistently come back to it. I’ve come to terms with the fact that the only money it will make me is if I get a better job by becoming a rust developer.

The Linux side of programming only really comes into play when you want to do networking, drivers, or esoteric filesystem intensive stuff. Windows and MacOS are capable of basically the same things. The main benefit of using Linux for development is that most open source projects are built by developers for development on Linux based systems, so getting dependencies has an easy one line command someone already figured out. For your situation I suspect the most important thing is how cool it feels when you use it. There’s something about setting up an operating system the way you want that keeps me coming back for more.
