You are about to do something potentially harmful.
To continue type in the phrase ‘Yes, do as I say!’
But speaking seriously, I think he tried it for a while and didn’t like it either… not sure why specifically tho, I’ll ask him

It’s not a miniscule gripe tho. Snap is still broken for many users, and relying on it for something as critical as a web browser is asking for trouble. Experimental technologies like snap should be opt-in for users who are willing to deal with the issues they create. Do they really expect a novice to see firefox’s filepicker not behaving correctly, and think “Aha, an XDG desktop portal issue! Let me drop everything I’m doing and go troubleshoot that” ? Ubuntu is meant to be linux for normies, they don’t have the time or the knowledge to deal with snap.
Next step is probably a VM…
Boy, you’re gonna love QubesOS
One of my friends spent like a month distrohopping just to find a debian-based distro that fits these two criteria:
First-class support for KDE
Isn’t broken all the time
Ubuntu fails both. KDE Neon excels on the first one, but fails harder than ubuntu on the second one. Kubuntu as well. Debian has horridly outdated packages, and he refuses to use nix/flatpak. Tuxedo OS is obscure and broken. Mint is great, but installing KDE takes some effort.
He finally settled on Ubuntu Server with the native KDE package. Still has to do some weird incantations to banish snap tho.
How did things get this bad?
YAML is good for files that have a very flexible structure or need to define a series of steps. Like github workflows or docker-compose files. For traditional config files with a more or less fixed structure, TOML is better I think
Do these things correlate that much tho? Not to toot my own horn, but I am fairly tech-proficient and have terrible typing skills. My technique is somewhere in between hunt-and-peck and touch-typing, despite regular typing lessons in elementary school. I imagine a lot of other people are like this, and vice-versa as well.
Please don’t. If you need something like json but with comments, then use YAML or TOML. Those formats are designed to be human-readable by default, json is better suited for interchanging information between different pieces of software. And if you really need comments inside JSON, then find a parser that supports //
or /* */
syntax.
Never knew that ddg had an LLM, will check it out. Thanks!
I’m sorry which LLM is this?
It’s perplexity.ai. I like it because it doesn’t require an account and because it can search the internet. It’s like microsoft’s bing but slightly less cringe.
How’d you get that out of it?
The screenshot is fake. I used Inspect Element.
I don’t mind people making and sharing AI pictures for fun, but if you sell those pictures, that’s kinda cringe tbh.
Does anyone have this picture without the text? Don’t get me wrong, it’s pretty funny with the toot, but I feel like it would also be funny without.
The trick is to give up and just shuttle files from computer to printer via usb stick
Dear everyone,
Fuck standing. Standing sucks, It’d rather walk or aimlessly pace around as well
Kind regards,

What?
I think it has to do with the age of the target audience? I remember being absolutely terrified and morbidly fascinated by sonic.exe
and similar when I was in middle school. What might seem weak/shallow/uncreative to an adult might actually be extremely interesting to someone younger.
I like your comment a lot because you can substitute a lot of different things for “snap” and it still ends up sounding like a very reasonable opinion
