I once got called the f-slur for having the audacity to read a book in public, outdoors in front of the library.

This is the first beard I’ve ever seen make someone’s chin look weaker.

Edit: is it accessible without knowing much Japanese?

It is, if you look a few things up, but there’s also a readily available translated “backup copy” floating around.

And iirc the next fedora release will finally unify everything under /usr/bin.

On my current Fedora 40 install /bin is already a symlink to /usr/bin

The main difference from the film being that the novel isn’t a satire–Heinlein was being sincere.

Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit

Slaves don’t have private ownership of their capital (that is, their own labor)… because someone else does.

Most “free” workers, in terms of capital, own only their own labor.

Capitalists own the majority of the capital–land, equipment, intellectual property, etc.

A system where the workers own the capital (aka the means of production) is socialism.

With the exception of some stuff used for windows desktop development, .NET (“dotnet core” is just .NET now) is released under the MIT license. I’m not following how using .NET would be contributing to the “agenda of proprietary software”.

The dotnet cli tools that come with the SDK run just fine cross platforms without Visual Studio. Your Linux distribution probably packages the SDK already, just install and use it.

If you want, you can use C# without .NET by using Unity, mono, or maybe Godot now I think?

I’ve been wrong before, but I can’t imagine Trump accepting a plea deal.

Mostly I’d be worried about actually being able to finding a decent jury without one nutjob who refuses to convict under any circumstance.

This is actually the maximum amount OSHA can fine for a single instance. My understanding (not an expert or anything) is that these amounts are set in legislation, so OSHA can’t increase them without Congress.

.NET core is supported on Linux. There is some stuff that won’t work on Linux, like WPF, but it doesn’t sound like you’re using that.

If you are searching specifically for “.NET hosting” you are bound to come across a bunch of Windows results, so I wouldn’t recommend that.

Any Linux virtual server provider will work just fine, provided they support a Linux distribution that runs the .NET core runtime, (which includes all the major ones). I’d avoid AWS or Azure. Those are a good way to run up a big bill pretty quick.

A $5 vm from the likes of Linode, Digital Ocean, Vultr, etc, will get you started just fine. Typically the costs won’t be able to “spiral out of control”–you’ll be allocated a set amount of CPU, memory, disk, and network usage.

It depends, and there’s a lot of variation obviously, but,

A frontend developer writes the stuff that runs on the client,

A backend developer writes the stuff that runs on the server (it can be repetitive–any programming can be, but it certainly needn’t be. It’s not always as flashy as frontend but there are still some exciting challenges),

And finally, a full stack developer does whatever the company wants, and damn it, they had better enjoy it too.

That’s just prime.

Excuse my ignorance, but why would Trump running his mouth in public put his attorneys’ clearance at risk?

I just created an account today and imported my lists from Goodreads. https://bookwyrm.social/user/imbrandon

Thanks for the heads about, I hadn’t heard about this before.

I made an account at imbrandon@bookwyrm.social

Absolutely, me too.

There were good things about Reddit, but I recognized a while ago that it was having a negative impact on my mental health. I had already been trying to use it less. On the other hand for the last few days when the Reddit drama has picked up I’ve found myself scrolling through lemmy more, and not necessarily in the positive participatory way that I’d prefer.

We’ll see how it all shakes out in the medium to long term I guess.
