I tried it when it launched, when it had content filtering problem with NSFW fan posts. I don’t mind them on the platform, but I need a way to blur it out so I am conscious about opening them. How is the platform now?

That’s just life of a C++ programmer: you second guess everything, and there are still optimization you haven’t tried, and pitfalls you haven’t got into

“Modern” UI design be like: fat paddings everywhere

That title gotta be intentional

One of the points I often give to people who claim “I don’t care about my privacy” is maybe others close them do, and endangering others’ privacy and data security is an irresponsible decision as a partner, parent, friend or family member, so it’s always good to raise awareness

Hello, I shut down PC every time I’m done using it like it’s 1997

Funny thing is Windows accepts forward slashes as arguments in programs and API for long time. They just refuse to return forward slashes and don’t give users/developer options to do so, so we have to deal with it anyway

GNOME is more keyboard-focused “in the way the devs thought it’s good”. If users want to change the way, they gonna use tweaks, dconf editor or gsettings and navigate a jungle of key-value pairs like Windows Registry

Wait till bro find out the program written in the “memory safe language” depends on many libraries written in C

Last time I tried Virt manager, I couldn’t figure out bridge networks and ended up corrupted the XML config for the VM. Skill issue for me I guess

I just looked them up and maybe you are right. But QEMU definitely lacks a GUI config tool that is both easy to use and allows for advanced features like snapshots. So far the only ones I know is GNOME Boxes and Virt Manager, and neither is as good as providing handy ways to configure as VirtualBox. I could probably just write the XML config or QEMU command by the documentation, but next time it could be a different scenario so I have to investigate the docs and maybe a few more forum posts. In VirtualBox, the buttons that do everything for me are always there

Because they are for different use cases. I use QEMU+KVM on desktop for games and 3D CAD software, because of its undeniable performance advantage. But on work laptop, I use VirtualBox to test my software on different platforms. On VirtualBox it’s relatively easy to initialize a VM, configure network, file sharing and device passthrough, and its snapshot feature allows me recreate the same environment for troubleshooting

Not all dev means developers/development, it could also mean devices on Linux, for example

All of the quirks you said are true, yet they still established the “okay” ecosystem of hobby-grade microcontrollers like Arduino, IoT devices, and other small scale robotics systems. None of them would have happened without the “okay” abstraction C/C++ provides as opposed to assembler

Over the beginning few years into software engineering and FOSS world, I legit thought Sourceforge is a sketchy software download website

What’s wrong with embedded C? Would you rather write assembly?

While I do see most of the listed stuff happened to me before, they only appear once in a while and it’s often just one sentence in the list is true. I think OP is trying to make an exaggerating slander where it’s extremely unlucky to have more than 5 sentences is right

While a separate platform for fan community is nice, they need to implement better content moderation because I saw NSFW posts once in a while. At least add an NSFW tag and make it blurred or something

Because the machine could be headless so it can’t display the applet to click on
