What does your local setup look like?

Mine required very specific courses, including Discrete Math, which I scraped by in. Almost 15 years later and I have never needed any of the upper level math I was forced to take and wish I could have just taken more applied CS classes instead.

I think the average person has no idea who either of those people are. I think Liszt or Rachmaninov would be better reference points.

> The thing thay is not defined is why I should do it.

Most of the reasons seem to boil down to "X bad", where X is some combination of Github, Microsoft, America, and AI

> this place accepts patches via email, this one wants a URL to a pastebin containing the patch

I for one would never contribute to a project that requires one of the above. I know some will shoot back with "but Linux!", but that's the exception that proves the rule.

> the vibecoded OS

What counts as an OS? For that matter, a Photoshop? And are we talking Photoshop 1.0, CS2, or CC?

I used to dream of owning an O2, in no small part due to it being the host of Erwin from UserFriendly. And then I managed to score multiple out of the trash years later in college, funny how the world works. :)

What if that does not matter to someone? I know my opinion can't be common, but I cannot stand live music. I dislike the sound quality, the differences from the recording, the crowds, the cost, and more.

Heh, I have four different games I am currently experimenting with, luckily I skipped this one as I am still expecting the original/Yoot source will be published (hopefully DonHopkins sees this and it nudges him to get it uploaded!).

You should have read the post :P

Wild to think this is the same project featured in the third Die Hard, which turned 30 this year.

I'm literally waiting for Satisfactory to go on Steam sale so I can buy it again and not have to deal with the Epic launcher for one game I bought on sale when the store launched. :)

> a developer who has worked on free software (including the GNU toolchain) since the 1980

Can they really not find ANYONE outside their bubble? A phone lives and dies by its UI and they pick someone who primarily does toolchain/CLI work? I don't get it.

Not sure if this was in jest or not but I can say the same. Both when I daily drove a MacBook Pro, and when I was using a Razer laptop as a desktop replacement at the height of the GPU shortage (it DID NOT like charging the battery all the time, eventually it puffed up and I had to remove and recycle it, oops). Though I do see the utility of auto-switching for the average user, so I definitely won't complain about the existence of it. :)

Well, no reason you can't distribute the emulator and let the user provide the rom, right? If MAME can do it, why can't you?
