with the most recent call last, but the actual exception at the top

programmerhumor lemmy continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of memes that are only tangentially related to technology and have dick all to do with programming posted by non programmers who want to hang out with the hackermen

I’d pull up statistics on movie ticket sales versus comic book sales and point out that the movie outsold the comics by (conservatively) 200 to 1, but there’s no point bringing facts into an argument against a troll.

There aren’t many conservatives on Lemmy. Why bother talking about what they think?

Could this be because people don’t tend to get mad over things they don’t know exist? Naaaaah, must be racism. Anyone who disgagrees that racism is the most likely explanation thinks racism is fake.

What is it with leftists and making mountains out of molehills?

“Personally, I just want to chalk this up to racism so I can be upset about it”

Better than the reverse, I suppose

Personally I think a large part of the lack of outrage over the first four is that no one who watched the movies had heard of the source material. People who watch Marvel movies don’t tend to read the comics, but Ariel was a Disney movie (one of the most famous of all time) remade as another Disney movie.

please let this happen again i am SO upset i didn’t get to go

maybe they’ll take inspiration from their avatar and next learn a programming language that’s actually good

you should learn Rust. the type system is so comprehensive that half the time you can guess what a function does (or at the very least what you’re supposed to pass to it) without a single line of human written documentation.

if you (by which i mean you the reader, not OP) use linux for no other reason than to be able to tell people you use linux, kindly get the fuck out of my community

They’re also similar in that if you tell them you use Linux but like Canonical and/or Lennart Poettering they’ll yell at you and call you all sorts of names but if you tell them you’re a Windows user they’ll leave you alone

Every couple of years I think to myself “Ubuntu can’t be that bad, can it? I must be misremembering. Surely it’s just some combination of my memory exaggerating how terrible it was and my lackluster Linux skills, which have since improved. Everybody still recommends it as a beginner distro, right? Why’d I stop using it?”

And then I download Ubuntu.

And then I remember.

Ah yes, the solarpunk high tech happy-for-everyone future in which artists no longer have jobs and are forced to do something they hate doing because otherwise they won’t eat.

This post goes out to like half of .ml

I see Programmer humor lemmy is continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of non programmers posting vaguely technology related memes that have dick all to do with programming

As you say, though, the developers have given us the tools with which to create our own houses. Why do you say it’s their house?

i have a hard enough time finding places on lemmy that aren’t that
