What’s a good way to financially support artists directly, without involving shady corporations, and without resorting to piracy?

Oh, I did grow up before video games were a thing, so I am aware of how CRTs worked. You just made it sound like CRTs would somehow provide tactile feedback while gaming, which I couldn’t place at all, given the context.
Side note: please don’t abuse the word “toxic” until it becomes absolutely meaningless. Let’s keep that to a more fitting context, having a
I was expressing an obviously personal opinion about the language itself, which is objectively a dull, barren wasteland that sucks out your soul while you walk it. That is precisely the reason why it’s so widespread and loved by business entities and managers - there is no excitement, no surprises, just an everlasting monotony of keys clicking produced by a horde of clones wearing button-down shirts while sitting in absolute identical cubicles, creating yet another instance of FactoryProducer. It’s very easy to plan and schedule for, while at the same time being unnecessarily verbose and mildly unproductive (compared to other languages).
Look, the JVM is fine, just pick another language. There is plenty of work doing Kotlin. But yes, if you’re doing this only for the money, go ahead. I’ve always been unable to separate my job fromy personal life and my other interests, I couldn’t imagine being cursed by Java again.
If you can sit somewhere for 8 to 10 hours each day, doing something that isn’t fun and separate yourself from it, not going insane, all the power to you. I also get that not everyone has the luxury of picking their favorite toy and making it their job, but I firmly believe there are options that are not Java.
Now, if you’re one of the rare types that actually enjoys Java, meet me in the closest Denny’s parking lot, I need your cranial measurements.
Please note: this post contains hyperbole and humor. I don’t hate any of you, I just hate Java
I wrote some allocators for IBM’s JVM eons ago, I get that. As much as I hate Java, I wish it would be related this time.
Unfortunately, I was talking about the Joe Rogan Experience.
Deezer also doesn’t host JRE and they didn’t provide a platform for literal nazis, so advantages all around.
My personal recommendation:
Pick up Python, it’s easy to learn and highly productive. If you also learn fastAPI, you can benefit from highly validated, declarative models to build REST APIs in the backend, well fast. It will yield quick results, you won’t become demotivated and you can pick up a paid project soon.
Pick up Rust. It’s “in” right now and I get requests from marketing people that know nothing about programming, asking if their project could be implemented in Rust
Go with memorizing the shell commands first, try to understand git later. Get productive, try to get where you were with e. g. svn or cvs. If you are comfortable, look at something in depth if you have a problem that you can’t solve with the knowledge you have.
Fuck Java, seriously.
You have commercial interests, so it is probably wise to look into becoming a fullstack dev to maximize the kind of projects you can do. Look into React, vue.js, svelte. React is probably still the most widely used framework, you’ll quickly do a project with vue.js and svelte is a super interesting look into things to come.
It is, probably. But I did a check before I posted and it did display content from Lemmy. Just pointing out alternatives here.
I think Fedilab should do both:
That dude is joking of course, but touching someone in a subtle manner can be used to both express and indicate interest.
If all else fails, entangle him with silk and consume him.
Have you tried taking a break from your medication to reset? Mine even recommends doing that every now and then in the leaflet.
Just make sure not to simply stop taking it, and talk to your doctor first.
I lift and I sew. Fuck that noise, you do you.
There is definitely a difference in quality when talking about import software.
Also, “outlawing vulnerabilities” would not mean to simply assume everyone starts making perfectly secure software, but rather that you’re fined if you can’t prove your processes are up to spec and you adhered to best practices during development. Additionally, vendors are obliged to maintain their software and keep it secure.
And surprise, surprise, the EU ratified laws that do exactly that (and more) recently. In fact, they’ll be in effect very soon:
I share all those opinions, so your rant saved me some potential typing in the future.
On the 8 Pro, the bump is recessed relative to the Otterbox case (given the “tough” Otterbox model for the 8 Pro, no idea what it’s called)
Do you use the phone without a protective case? I find that most cases are designed so that the bump is flush with the back of the case.
That being said, I prefer thicker cases like the Otterbox oder Spigen Tough whatever series, so I could see how such a case would be “too much” for someone.
I don’t hear it either, though.
So, female leads in video games are fine when used and perceived as a novelty? Special and cool like they used to be? You can tolerate them if the game is good? Jesus man, I don’t know what to tell you…
Same, but you were talking about NewPipe. I assume you use that on your phone.
And while you can disable the search history there, too, it often is convenient not to have to type the name of that thing you want to listen to while you’re driving, so many people leave it enabled.
I shudder to think OP’s post was written by an actual person…
