5·2 months agoMarkor makes you pick a title before you can type and the quick notes feature doesn’t quite ameliorate the issue for me so I specifically went looking for the same and found one called Markleaf on F Droid that does what I want. It has a nice tagging feature.

Linux@programming.dev•Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?
7·3 months agoLots of little extremely niche things people do on their computer on Windows are harder on Linux, I think the best example in general is video game modding. We can’t say it’s essential or barring anyone from making a switch and yet people like me wrankle. I’m disappointed no one ever put the honest time into cloning Mod Organizer and its amazing USVFS. Yes I know you can do it on Fuse, I know there are a couple other mod applications for Bethsoft games. The problem is ALL of these tools need a seamless way to talk between Proton instances, which would be a security risk I guess. And Mod Organizer was such a nice tool. The clone attempts I’ve seen have had shoddy UI, lacked core features you wouldn’t even bother calling it an MO clone without (Amethyst was not storing -downloads-, just running whatever FOMOD it found immediately and deleting the archive), or were done heavily with LLM AI which I don’t trust around proton instances.
It’s the absolute lowest priority right now and if you’re willing to accept a lot of potential suck you can eek by. I don’t use EMACs or I’d probably be the kind of person using that as mod manager, but hearing it described I’d liken my agony over lacking good mod tools to trying to use EMACs on a broken cellphone screen, or a keyboard missing half its letters. I miss the tools MO set the industry standard for.
Neurotypicals also over commit to fandom and flaunt social norms for the sake of it in bouts of nerdy excitement.

Memes of Production@quokk.au•"This deal doesn't help my murderous global empire enough which makes it evil and bad"English
5·3 months agoI suppose the problem is I get badjacketed very often on Lemmy for takes like “not everyone in America (including the people in detention camps) deserves to die because some people made bad choices” and “war crimes are bad no matter who is doing them”, yet I am rarely interacting with libs or fascists, so if they’re out here bitching that America’s dick got stepped on too hard they are just not on my feed. I dunno why you would go to Lemmy and choose to interact with those people. Some of these posts seem designed to start fights with invisible people. Everyone should know about blocking users and defederating intolerable instances.
Honestly, it sounds like you’re talking to Americans who don’t realize we haven’t won a war since World War II. Since that isn’t that obscure a fact to anyone who studied any history, you’re wasting your time talking to them.

4·3 months agoI don’t understand, it IS literally bad for America. But from your/our perspective who cares? You’re gloating, and thats fine, your viewpoint is vindicicated, America just tripped on its own dick. The people will now be 300 billion poorer. So are we wrong to point out that by hoisting our own petard, as a country, we will be bearing a consequence? Or do you simply seek to frame literally anything Americans say, even the conciliatory, even the materially correct analysis, as imperialism?

Fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Redditor shares their experience on LemmyEnglish
2·4 months agoThe Anne Frank quote. Doesn’t it disprove the OPs point? If Anne Frank had spent a lot of time writing about her favorite fictional rock orbiting Pluto whose name was Jeremy the Rock, that would be a political topic like all other things in her diary because after she wrote that diary she was checks notes murdered for her ethnicity. The only children’s diaries that necessarily aren’t political are the ones we never read and the ones not penned by murder victims. Like you bitch about Lemmy culture all you want but you’re the one who brought up a murder victim’s last words, which are THE symbol of banal hatred of the innocent that people use to teach the tragedy of the Holocaust, BECAUSE what was written there was so completely innocent.
I guess I forgot how much redditors think, but never think about Anne Frank.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Arch Linux's AUR Sees More Than 400 Packages Compromised With Malware
6·4 months agoThis is a reminder to everyone to only install from the AUR for absolutely necessary stuff only, and only if you trust the maintainer.
Unfortunately not foolproof either. I have no infected packages that I know of because I happen to be on a new install, but I caught wind of the LAST AUR botnet infiltration and switched to flatpaks or source builds. Since then I drifted back to AUR for convenience. I thought I was being clever only using AUR packages when I could be “sure” the author of the original software package pushed to AUR, and this was easy since devs who build on Arch typically recommend AUR whether they maintain the package or not. Today I found out spoofing package ownership is apparently easy and so is spoofing git credentials.
I was on Endeavour and it was incredible, but I’m not That Power User and I feel like part of the problem. The worst part of all of this is its owing to an influx of users who want the same ease of use they used to enjoy, but in Windows SOP is installing whatever the fuck you want on Internet Explorer and bugging your sysadmin to fix whatever happens. Its probably really hard to be any kind of FOSS developer right now.

rpg@ttrpg.network•Cracking a player character's egg out of game?
2·4 months agoI am sorry if the term tulpa was a loaded term, I suspected it might be loaded and only used it for lack of a better term. Thank you for sharing these resources, I’ll give them a read.

rpg@ttrpg.network•Cracking a player character's egg out of game?
2·4 months agoIt sounds like there are some lines that shouldn’t be crossing here. I don’t know much about the system/alter/DID dynamics (or if those are actually related even) but it sounds like you made a metaphorical tulpa in your friend’s head by accident. I don’t think this is a healthy group dynamic. You should not be feeding stimulus for a new personality to your friend who is susceptible, that seems dangerous. Or, if its actually fine, maybe talk about boundaries. Did they want to be Egg James Bond? Do they even want to be Trans James Bond? There’s a difference between acting and making a character a part of you. It doesn’t seem like anyone should have cracked Egg James Bond because as trans people we shouldn’t be forcibly doing that to each other. And at no point, if any of this is being taken seriously within your group, should Egg or Trans James’ Bond’s personal story be for your entertainment. You somewhat created a person or personality and you imbued it with a very turbulent emotional condition that takes years for some to come to grips with. Who knows how that is interacting with the system and its other selves. If this can legitimately happen to people with alters/systems/DID, that strikes me as cruel. You are in a way all responsible for their wellbeing. Your friend should apologize to Trans James Bond and all of you should talk to your friend’s other selves and apologize.
Edit: Also there is no excuse for misogyny at the table. The line for roleplaying a misogynist is thin and has already been crossed.

Memes of Production@quokk.au•If you're going to use "Epstein Class" your might as well not botherEnglish
1·4 months agoI’m sorry a Jewish guy happened to be the face of this crime, but we (meaning you and I) wouldn’t let Obama off for being a war criminal because he’s black, and that was when a racist backlash was building against the black community because of his very existence. The only people smearing Jews with Epstein’s shit are anti-semites who would be doing that no natter what. The Israeli war agenda is already giving plenty of cover to antisemites. Antisemites don’t care about the truth. You need the Jean-Paul Sartre quote spelled out for you or does everyone still have it in their clipboard?
Nationalism is really fucking stupid. I wish I could discuss a rhetorical tactic without getting jacketed as pro-fascist. Same with the pro-police and pro-corporate comments, fuck you very much. Engage me about your belief that the term is antisemitic, which is your one good faith point and a completely sympathetic concern, or gargle my shit and piss.

9·4 months agoIt’s a rhetorical tactic to draw attention to the juxtaposition between the lives of poor people who don’t know French words and the rich they all but worship, can people stop denigrating it as a term? It goddamn works in an argument. You can tell someone their worldview was given to them by the Epstein class. You can tell people Steve Banon and Jeff Epstein, members of the Epstein class, conspired to psyop them toward being antifeminist. You can say the Epstein class directly controls the White House because there are literal video evidence of the AG facing away from rape victims as she covers for the rapists by seguing to the supposed health of the economy.
