GIMP would be infinitely better if they just changed the name so we could talk about it around normal people without getting dirty looks

Why did you photoshop the image to make his face bigger?

my website's backend is made with bash, it calls make for every request and it probably has hundreds of remote arbitrary code execution bugs that will get me pwned someday, it's great

edit: to clarify, it uses a rust program i made to expose the bash scripts as http endpoints, i'm not crazy enough to implement http in bash

it behaves like a static file server, but if a file has the others-execute permission bit set it executes the file instead of reading it

it's surprisingly nice for prototyping since you can just write a cli program and it's automatically available over http too

if they sold DVDs of Netflix's shows that would actually be pretty nice, but I doubt they would be OK with allowing anyone to actually own their media.

Good, if someone is selling their labor they should be protected as an employee.

Games that have native Linux versions are uncommon, but Steam on Linux includes a program called Proton, which provides a Windows-compatible environment so that games made for Windows can run without being manually ported. It isn't exactly the same, so some games don't work quite right, which is why not every game is compatible with Steam on Linux.

Any game that's compatible with the Steam Deck should run fine on any other Linux system, as long as the underlying hardware is powerful enough.

breaking news: if you spend thousands of hours building a house of cards on top of a rug controlled by a company whose best interests do not align with yours, don't be surprised when they hold your work for ransom and threaten to pull it out from under you

How is this better than a normal messaging protocol like Matrix? What does blockchain add to the solution?

no one has ever wanted to work, you're supposed to pay them enough that they're willing to work anyway
