Instead of ‘american’ or USian or others, why not Yankee? It has historical significance to the united states, originated a a pejorative, and the south hates it. Perfect

wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is Hyprland a good WM choice if I can make stacking / floating workflow work?2·9 days agoOverwrite wasn’t the best choice of words. Display in place of is better. There’s a literal option now called “disable hyperchan” If you use that config, you don’t need to do anything else. But, having a dev introduce a feature which supercedes users’ deliberate choices for his, and his cronies amusement was reason enough to leave.
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is Hyprland a good WM choice if I can make stacking / floating workflow work?10·9 days ago1st turnoff for me was the creator added this anime background which overwrote whatever background you had. I found the file and wrote a hook to automatically delete it on update reverting to mt background, only to find that there was a condig option to do the same thing
2nd The maintainer is a bigot and I won’t support bigotted projects when there are other (better) options like sway which I know use.
TLDR: Creator violates Wheatons Law. I don’t like that.
I should have phrased that better. I agree copy and pasting commands off of the internet is a terrible idea. Be they from ai or from a forum or wiki. By ‘try’ I meant look into. As in explore that path. To you and I ‘try’ means something different than a new user. I will be more careful in the future
If ai gives you something to try it’s better than nothing. But I was going to suggest another distro if someone else hadn’t. Thanks ai…
We spend so much time and effort trying to disuade the people with “negative behavior” who we have discarded from our “civil society”
Where I live the grocery stores have carts whose wheels lock if you try to take them too far from the store. As if anyone trying to do that would know until they couldn’t push them anymore. Thing is the store doesn’t unlock them. Somehow they make it back and then they end up to front carts. People will try to use them until they realize they can’t be moved. Some do get unlock, but the wheels aren’t round anymore. People dragged them flattening out part of the wheel. If there are no other carts, which happens often because there are so many with locked wheels, you get to click and clack through the store with everyone looking at you like you are some kind of asshole.
There are literally hundreds of cameras. Including ones raised high on trailers in the parking lot. The same pole has blinking blue lights to simulate a police cruiser and a loud speaker reminding you the parking lot is being monitored. Back in the store as you walk in there is an electric gate and a camera and monitor. On which is writing which also reminds you you are being monitored. You have to wait to let them get a picture of you before the gate will open.
But the best of all of this. After you finish checking out your groceries as if you work there, you have to keep your reciept handy before your cart is checked by armed guards. Body armor. A gun. Not the police (as if that would make it better, but at least their job is to “protect and serve” the public) As you walk up they are usually shooting the shit with each other, and they maintain that pleasantness while they check your receipt (as if they actually are). You are at complete ease until you realize you went through a security checkpoint with a riot squad.
All of this. All. Of. This. Because our society sees it as acceptable to punish the entire public for lack of empathy for those who need it most and to prevent petty crime.
If you do want to learn Rust, try Rustlings. It’s the best intro I’ve ever seen to a language. You are introduced to all of the concepts and data structures by debugging code, and you run it locally so you get a real development experience while you do it.
It’s worse than that. Amtrak gets government subsidies. Conservatives take that to be Communism, so even the “capitalist” solution, the only train we have, is constantly under threat.

You can probably get by on library computers

My suggestion is you focus more on learning to use the terminal than figuring out which one to use. Switching terminals is like a micro version of distro hopping without the benefits.
I use ollama for llms, but being a terminal tool, you need to be comfortable using the terminal.
To answer your original question, I use alacritty. Minimal bells and whistles. Just a terminal.
