@tempest ohh interesting okay! that’s honestly a lot better than the alternative (the core language features being well-documented but not the module options) so I’m glad to hear it. it sounds like it might not actually be as hard to get started with as I thought - and I can definitely see the appeal as well
see like, this is the kind of shit that normal people struggle with when trying to get into linux
distros should have a widget on the website that asks what card you have and then zoom in on a large starburst graphic with flashing text that tells you what iso your hardware meets the requirements of so theres no confusion about what you need to download
I hope the word “slop” doesn’t get too diluted because I think it’s extremely helpful to have such a short word that means “soulless mass-produced content that exists only to make money with the least effort or creativity possible”
it's such an obvious artificial barrier. could the program automatically download those mods anyway? yes.
will it do that? no.
but it'll make it as automatic as possible!
the Linux command line really needs a way to proactively warn the user that something is wrong, or something is about to go wrong
instead of suddenly getting I/O errors because the disk is full, or wondering why your service is down (because it crashed), you could get a little red (1) or (2) in your terminal prompt and type notifs to get a warning that “your disk usage is at 90%” or “systemd had to restart this service and here is the error log” or even just “this cron job ran and exited with code 12 and here’s the terminal output”
it also needs some equivalent of tray icons. typing ps aux will deluge you with a fuckton of random system services that I’ve never heard of before, and somewhere buried under all that are the services that I’m interested in. I’d really like a way to ask Linux “hey what non-system-critical software is running right now?”
it also needs a way to ask “hey what non-system-critical software is currently installed?” and “what user-facing software is installed?” so that you can figure out what you installed on that system without getting deluged with a list of ten million C libraries
basically I just think that the Linux command line needs better ways to understand what the state of the system is, once it gets more complex than a Unix mainframe was in the 1980’s. at the moment it feels like you have to proactively check for problems and gotchas before they happen, and that’s just unworkable
aw - there’s no way to play Apex Legends solo without getting matched up with at least one random :/ I probably wouldn’t have liked the game anyway but it’s a shame that I didn’t get to try it
also I tried The Finals today and it was a very hyper turbo shoot shoot run faster gogogo kill man shoot run type of game. I barely had enough time to process what was happening before I was doing something completely different instead. extremely not fun IMO. why does every PvP shooter have to go at 300 miles per hour?
with those “choose which one you want to fuck” style images I always tried to figure out what the personalities of each of the characters would be, based on their expressions and poses
but for a lot of pics I had a really hard time figuring out how they were meant to be different personality-wise. and that’s when I realized that I was supposed to be choosing based on appearance

@TheSunnyOne I am so glad that I have no idea what drama is going on
哲学専攻で先輩に繰り返し教えられたのは
「人は同じ言語を使っていても、その語の意味内容は人によってかなり違うので、その人がその語でどのような概念を表象させているか慎重に精査せよ」
であった。
例えば「人間」という言葉を使っていても、私の世界観なら「人間は基本的にろくでもない生物」として使うが、他の人は「人間は無限の可能性がある」という意味で使う。
おなじ言葉でも、意味がまったく違うことが多い。ここへの着眼は仕事でも役に立っている。
