But how else am I to verify my trust? I trust GitHub!

In case of phones, there’s less of a myriad of operating systems and libraries.

A typical Android app is (eventually) Java with some bundled dependencies and ties in to known system endpoints (for stuff like notifications and rendering graphics).

For windows these installers are usually responsible for getting the dependencies. Which is why some installers are enormous (and most installers of that size are web installers, so it looks smaller).

Docker is more aimed at developers and server deployment, you don’t usually use docker for desktop applications. This is the area where you want to skip inconsistencies between environments, especially if these are hard to debug.

Isn’t that what the tariffs and general idiocracy of the Republicans are for?

I’m working for the government, and most projects that were about switching to MS Teams and other US-based software suites appear to have crashed to a complete halt (which I feel no remorse over).

I too, tried using regex to strip html tags. This was in php with hardly any knowledge of oop.

A university education really improved me there, since they trained you in Java to a high degree within 20 weeks (alongside stuff like UML). PHP is a fine starter language, but as applications grow, a more native oop approach with build-time validation, really made me a better developer.

your government. We, as non-US majority users, are having struggles of our own. Your elected, fascist government isn’t anywhere near top priority for us and you should stop thinking it is.

Dang, I removed my account before the bans started flying.

I did have to re-delete a lot of comments very often, and then the bulk deletion app was suddenly enshittified

I’ve said this on reddit before, but once for a joke I tried to make a windows program to play doot.wav during October at random, and tried programming it on Linux.

Sinds playing audio and working with the system tray was tricky, I ended up with electron.

So yeah, an atrocious 120 mb application to play a 6kb wav file with a Math.random(). I don’t remember the memory consumption, but it was probably just as gross.

That’s enshittification for ya.

Meanwhile, all “lifetime pass” holders are encouraging this, while they have no skin in the game.

I’m not sure if reddit devs are even aware of it

They likely are, but management is also likely rejecting any attempts to fix it.

Maybe they’re using xdg-dirs? That might work, won’t it?

Hey, fuck you for calling adults stupid. Some of us have been stupid the whole time! Edit: /s

I heard the guillotine has no objections ingesting poo

I figured out my new Ubiquity firewall can block Amazon and Amazon video with a few clicks. Added bonus that the tv was sending GBs of data that way, without us using the app.

Yep, they have the same feature.

Lemmy.world is hosted in the Netherlands, if I’m not mistaken.

Or vpn hopping, works too.
