“Another potential hypothesis is that the increasing negativity, polarization, intrusiveness, and emotional manipulation in social media has created a persistent cognitive overload on the finite cognitive resources we have,” Quantic Foundry said. “Put simply, we may be too worn out by social media to think deeply about things.”

in other words, we’re burnt out and we just want some escapism …

Decision of Next Os

I was Nobara user, then I am using Fedora right now. I want to use things like Hyprland etc. and ya know, Its damn cool to say I am using arch btw. So I’ve decided to use Arch Linux. But everyone says its always breaking and gives problems. That’s because of users, not OS… right? I love to deal with problems but I don’t...

cerement,
@cerement@slrpnk.net avatar

(NeXT is something completely different)

anyways … the problem isn’t with Arch itself, it’s users randomly dipping into AUR thinking that the same level of safety checks that apply to the official repository also apply to the user repository – if you stick with the official repository or doublecheck an AUR package before running some random script off StackExchange, you’ll be fine

and if you want Arch with a little more polish, start off with EndeavourOS to get your feet wet and decide if you want to move to a pure Arch system at that point …

I’ve heard of GnuCash but I have no experience or knowledge of it

EDIT: only came across it because I was looking at the Guile language and GnuCash is listed as using Guile

EDIT 2: unwarranted advice – for memory and ADHD, take a look at the original bullet journaling (not the Instagram/TikTok fad it’s turned into)

the issue isn’t so much with IRC, XMPP, Matrix, or Discord per se (aside from Discord having its own issues) – it’s that every dev/org/group is trying to use a chatroom as a replacement for support channels, wikis, knowledgebases, FAQs, forums, announcements, mailing lists, etc.

[as the meme states: “I don’t want to join your fucking Discord server just to get basic information that should be on a proper website instead of hidden away in the archives of a fucking chatroom”]

Can someone explain the "don't put all your eggs in one basket" argument to me? (kbin.run)

I'm (probably) switching to Proton Pass from Bitwarden because its easier to create email aliases (all in one instead of making an alias with SimpleLogin, then copying that to Bitwarden and making a password there) but I've heard people saying not to use Proton Pass to not "put all your eggs in one basket". Can someone explain...

in the case of technology (specifically anything cloud based * ) – if you have your needs split across multiple services, if one of them goes down / gets hacked / goes belly up, you only lose access to what was stored on that service – if everything is on one service, then you lose access to everything

  • the cloud is just someone else’s computer

problem is that the original COBOL programmers were expecting their stuff to be replaced within a decade, they never realized that companies would never pay to replace something if it was still (barely) functional after years of neglect – now those programs have become the backbone of their company and they’re having to shell out because it takes a special breed to learn COBOL in the day of C, C++, C#, Elixir, Nim, Crystal, JavaScript, Lua, GDScript, Dart, Swift, Kotlin, Clojure, …, …, …
