It's weird to me how people(are they?) here bend over backwards to defend a monopolistic drm platform like steam.

I get gamers like their games. But come on.

I'd never admit it irl or to anyone I know because it's petty. But it bothers me when cs people refer to themselves as engineers.

Referring to themselves as scientists would seriously be a step past that.

maybe those of you that are lucky enough to have cool people in your lives should mention it?

Feels like the only two topics that get discussed here are Linux and neurodivergence.

I don't think most people I could suggest this place to would ever enjoy that.

"What would even be the use case for that?" - A Gnome dev probably.

The first mistake was liking a company.

I'm halfway through the book and rustlings and it's... Awkward so far.

Is it possible to become as productive with rust as one is with higher level languages?

Or should I stick to gc languages for domains where gcs make sense.

I was kinda hoping to make rust be my go to language for general purpose stuff.

It's there though? I've been trying it for a while and even the most popular rooms are just dead.

I want to like this place.

People seem too aggressive here though.

And apparently everyone's hobby is using Linux and neurodiverging.

Hey now. Us physics majors can just do less efficient engineering work.

I feel like you guys are better than us at a lot tbh.

You see. If you have this exact hardware with this exact software it's going to work flawlessly. Pinky promise.

It surprises me too. I suppose gamers do really like their proprietary DRM with monopolistic practices.
