I totally agree, though I wrote this in the context of OPs post specifically saying (emphasis mine):
I have seen in many US shows where they portray guys who are living with parents as losers, or there are jokes or memes about it, I never get it.
I sometimes admin. But usually not.

Scrolled through the thread long enough and I still only see people blaming stigma and capitalism but… Those are just the end effects.
It’s plain toxic masculinity:
I feel like her reply is just as likely to be to call him a race traitor or whatever. It’s hard to reason with people who gatekeep that hard
If the GOP wanted to counterattack, they could always start funding hyper-progressive candidates too 🙂
Right?? To let your website be susceptible to that kind of act by anyone means that you probably didn’t really care about security in the first place, so much as just getting the magic lock icon happy.
DAE enshittification bad!!1!
Hey, I maintain a highly popular (if niche) FOSS library. Where the fuck is my big tech paycheck where they bribe me into integrating with their product?
/s Silly take IMO, relies on cherry-picking popular FOSS projects where you can see “the influence” of big tech, AND then No True Scotsman your way into saying that they’re not allowed to participate in the development/influence of FOSS because… checks notes they’re the ones funding the project/putting money in front of otherwise unpaid volunteers?
If you end up coming up with a better scheme for things that has the actual practical effect of compensating devs appropriately (yes, that means at current market rates or better) for their work, then please let us know so we can switch to doing that immediately. I will literally do anything you suggest if it would achieve that end.
Thank you for actually attempting to answer the question instead of just spouting the knee-jerk reaction of “it’s bullshit”.
And yes, maybe it is bullshit. Maybe they’ll never end up actually offsetting their carbon footprint. Maybe they’ll think they are, but end up getting scammed out themselves. Last Week Tonight did a great piece on Carbon Offsets on that whole subject.
Depending on whether this code is in a hotpath (and considering how “elementary” it is, I figure that’s a possibility), this could very well be a significant speed improvement.
Though I’d say that only excuses it if it’s truly an elementary function (and not one line as part of a larger function), as otherwise it’s unreadable garbage. But on its own it:
From the top of this thread, Valve was suggested as a candidate for someone who might already be interested in these things, perhaps to the point of invested into each of those.
Or maybe they don’t. Maybe nobody does.
People can speculate and dream. Nobody’s speaking authoritatively here, and certainly nobody is petitioning that Linus himself get down and dirty in anti-cheat functionality.
Or here’s a revolutionary thought: let people voluntarily (and reversably) opt-in to kernel-level anti-cheats.
Part of freedom is the freedom to choose.
Unfortunately if you let Junior play in legacy code once, it’ll learn some nasty habits and make more of it from scratch, usually when you’re trying to sleep.
Same icon pack here!
To add onto this:
Home Assistant isn’t “yet another” service. It’s not trying to do vendor lock in: you can think of Home Assistant kinda like a “glue” framework.
It’s meant to let you systemically attach devices/software across any number of mediums, and pre-existing services, and let them play nice.
So if you’ve already gone and set up your Google Home, or Alexa, or Apple Homekit, you don’t have to abandon them to use Home Assistant.
Sometimes you can’t even get away from it: the thermostat that came with our rental basically only has a useful Samsung Smartthings integration, but we can still use it with Home Assistant.
It seems to be available for sale on Amazon Video, Apple TV, Google TV, the Microsoft Store, and Vudu (source: https://watch.plex.tv/show/star-trek-strange-new-worlds)
The pirates in the room are all laughing rn
I’d rather have tightly-written shows with 3 seasons than meandering shows that don’t know how/where they’re going to end with producers who are incompetent at steering things (cough Kurtzman & DIS)
Blind brand loyalty to something you don’t enjoy is a waste of your precious time on earth
