True. I don’t really know what people listen to these days but my once best friend went into a spiel regarding the whole bud light issue and it was so absurd I just finally said hey you have some major insecurity issues. And left.

Like trans people just popped up out of nowhere… victims of the liberal media!

But I do honestly believe insecurity is a large driver of hate. Hey i like you whoever you are as long as you aren’t being an asshole. That’s pretty much as far as my judgment goes. Pretty simple!

I gotta say, that was an impressive amount of words to say nothing.

Interesting take. I grew up Catholic, Sunday school yada yada. That guilt… that is some fucked up shit to put into a child.

But as you put it, Christians are far more insufferable and a significant reason why I changed my faith.

And please spare me how the Catholic Church is somehow king of pedo. Every Christian sect is rife with them. If you care about your kids stay away from them all. You can give them a better handle on ethics and mortality with some basic cartoons. And they'll probably enjoy them rather than groan at the stupid outdated biblical shit you want to make them learn.

Yeah, I'm biased but i stand by that statement.

No no no you misunderstood me.

I was being honest, I know nothing of rust. I have however used python in embedded systems with positive results. The product didn't make it but for other reasons.

Funny you mention java, that's sorta what I'm stuck in but not like you think. Beyond the fact that it's a bloated nightmare.

I'm just a low-level programmer at heart but I have bills to pay. The rust stuff was all just a joke… i don't know it but maybe i should. Thanks for the info.

Saying anymore about what I do is just super embarrassing but i promise i meant no ill will. Excuse my frustration, I'm locked into a proprietary system i have no control over. You would laugh your ass off if you saw it. Anyway, i meant no offense, have a good night!

That's the number you can call me on.

When you call, ask for Mike Jones!

It would be a blast to see the memes if the speakers name was that. I was happy to see the ref. That was a long time ago and fairly localized. I don't even know what happened to that guy.

Those simple times of 9-layer paint and causing pain in the turning lane

Hah thanks for clarifying. I was joking too and it's a shame I couldn't post the results.

Though I admit i don't know anything about rust. I'm sure I'd like it better than the proprietary garbage i use now that just gets converted to ASM / PLC code in the end. But I can't skip the middle man. I'm not gonna try but probably 30mins for me to "write" the above.

Besides, how do you make money if I can code something in an hour as opposed to 2 days?

Wow that's a very exhausting language. I dropped your code into an online rust to asm converter and it actually wasn't more! I did try to post it for fun but lemmy kept messing up the code block. Oh well, wasn't that amusing anyway!

I have to agree with most people, arch is probably the way to go.

But given the subject I'm gonna piggy back on you and ask about KDE Neon. This is what got me back into desktop Linux after installing it on an old crappy tablet.

Now i currently run it on a couple older but upgraded AIOs and even my server that primarily does VMs.

If i understand it's a little more bleeding edge than people would normally like but I'm curious the community thoughts on it as i don't hear much. Am I missing out not running arch or mint?

That is a lot of usefull information. I'm no fan of digital EQs whatsoever but I do use wavelet with the IEMs. Works great plugged in but knowing my next phone probably won't have a headphone connection I got a fiio BT amp and it just creates distortion with the EQ. Not sure who's to blame for that.

Hopefully the M4s behave better (yeah I'm sold). Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, it's been very helpful!

I appreciate your response. The Momentum 4 seems like it would suit me but the app thing… why do they need an app? Everything should be built in.

I'll dig a little deeper but hey thanks for putting me on to something i haven't even heard of. I need to get out more I guess… noise cancelling has been around for a bit but I didn't like early products much. But have always had respect and good results from Sennheiser, will give it a go. Based on what Sony did to people that had their high end earbuds I'm wary of them and apps in general that load firmware with no reversion so i probably won't look into those.

Do you mean active noise cancelling? If yes, do you have any recommendations?

I have some nice wired IEMs that kinda do the job but only problem is I catch myself almost dancing as I get lost in my own world hah

I don't know . I had a cart full of everything from window blinds to steaks and for me it seemed like an ordeal because its an unknown.

And let's be fair, it's not a matter of scanning and moving on, that would be easy. Each item has to be scanned one at a time, and then weighed and bagged. Takes forever and in my experience something always goes wrong and I get "please wait for cashier / assistance".

Maybe just bad experiences or I am perhaps an idiot when it comes to them.

To the point of the topic: keeping my head down while someone scans my items and then swiping my card is far easier than all the attention and interactions I create with the self checkout machines.

That actually sounds cool. My experience with downtown areas has been less than positive… more of a maze, everything very overpriced… now that I think about it it's very similar to a large airport.

Shame as it'd be nice to just walk around for all your needs… you'd think it would actually be more cost effective.

As an introvert i hate it. It's always loud and temperamental and really if anything i should get a discount for using it.

Once did a late night Walmart run for a bunch of random stuff. Only to come up to no cashiers. Luckily the sweet girl at the self check out saw my panic and used a bar code scanner to get me on my way

When it just scans tags as i push my cart through I'll consider self checkout. Otherwise it just feels like I'm working for free.

VPN is great and a solution but it can also be a hassle in many configurations.

And really there is nothing stopping them from throttling secure traffic unless you buy a business plan or whatever they come up with.

I hope it can be reinstated because allowing ISPs to throttle various traffic gives absolutely no benefit to the end user.
