What I'm referring to is the Baldur's Gate 3 fiasco. I don't know how things panned out, but people were turning away from it at the time. Admins were aware/involved as far as I ~~know~~ remember.

Wonder how long that will stand. Also hasn't 1337 been deemed unsafe, or is it back on good terms?

Oh, for sure. It's really just preference that I like it. Really great to have options, though.

Oh, by the way, is the padding issue due to the window size? When I run on tiling compositors, the full window is uneven with respect to character width so there's space on the bottom and side. I'm not sure if there's a way to fix it running in the terminal other than resizing so it's even. Don't know if you're tiling or not.

I don't think you understand. This one has different people, so hype

Nixvim is great too. Nixneovim was originally forked from it, apparently. And now that I've been thinking about it, I'm pretty sure the reason I ended up using nixneovim was indeed the way it handles direct vim options, and maybe less need for extraConfig? I've slowly been configuring more as well and didn't want to be confused learning vim config and having to figure out how to convey that in nix.

So that's a thought if you find yourself having the same trouble! It's not just a lot of config, but layers and layers and layers lol. Looking at you, lua in string literals.

I had a lot of high hopes for what it was striving to be, but it kind of fizzled out and never really excelled at any particular thing. Not saying it's necessarily bad, I just remember being so hyped about it.

I find it kinda funny. I find it kinda sad he's got many followers that I wish he'd never had.

Maaaad woooorld

Ugh Starbound was supposed to be so sick. That might be the only time I actually bought into early access hoping for more and got let down.

I'm actually sad that the state of AI deserves the hate it gets. Neural networks are so sick, just going through the example of detecting a diagonal on a 2x2 grid was like magic to me. And they made me second guess simulation theory for quite a while lmao

Tangentially, blockchain was a similar phenomenon for me. Or at least trust networks. One idea was to just throw away Certificate Authorities. Basically federate all the things, and this was before we knew about the fediverse. It gets all the hate because of crypto, but it's cool tech. The CA thing would probably lead to a bad place too, though.

Apologies for the late comment. So this is a full-fledged frontend like photon or alexandrite, but with this recommendation engine built in? On first glance, it looks so much more responsive and lightweight! I'm really wondering what you've done that other big frontends haven't lol, no broken images or anything! If you do end up going open source, I might consider actually contributing to something for once. I'd love to help build out some features.

Edit: After using it for a few minutes, wtf, it's snappier than lemmy itself. And the community search, wow! Maybe a pretty ui does something to perception, I dunno. I am assuming you have barrels of cache lol.

Even if you're gay in Palestine, right now, the biggest threat to your existence is Israel. You support a society where children are murdered by a state for existing.
