  • In linux it doesnt have a tray with mail count that sends a notification when new mail arrives. It’s a pretty basic feature nowadays to be honest. It didn’t even have the auto fetch every 30 minutes when I switched!?!! Like Thunderbird expected me to click on the sync button every 30 minutes. That’s not how people use email I’m sorry.

    I agree that all those calendar and contacts features are completely unnecessary and that it could integrate with other tools instead, but the main use is lacking.





  • HTTPS has way too much bloat for it to be relevant where SSH is used. Its a protocol to send hypertext in a secure way, SSH is a secure shell. Saying that we should use https out of all tools as a SSH replacement is wild.

    I call you a troll because is my kindest way to say that these opinions that you have are so out of touch with development since more than 30 years that your opinions are just wrong and you are saying them with such conviction that either you are intentionally misleading others for laughs (a troll) or it’s a worse alternative. Yeah I was avoiding having to scrutinize your inability to recognize how the programming world has evolved in the last 30 years. Hell, mobile phones didn’t really exist 30 years ago!



  • I really don’t need github in a box sir. I can use the command line just fine and if I need more my code editor interacts with git I show me a fine interface just fine. Spinning up a local web server to see how the vc is going seems like bloat. The Linux mantra is for each tool to be centralised around one task and fossil seems to be overreaching. It looks like they decided on the name appropriately, some old thing not relevant anymore the no one has heard about in a long time, a fossil.

    Addendum: You know that most lemmy clients, even the webview, don’t render the HTML tags, right?


  • 1995 is new to you? SSH is useful for way more thing than version control, you should be using it when interacting with remote servers in one way or another.

    You must be trolling. I can’t believe you just said that SSH is NOT the battle tested one. I just looked it up, git released in 2005 and fossil in 2006, it’s the newer tool! So, to your comment, literally no U.








  • You shouldn’t get fired anyways, but here in Spain if you miss work because you are sick you need to have a note from your doctor justifying that staying at come was the correct choice, so you wouldn’t be able to call in sick.

    You wouldn’t be able to be fired either, the company needs several heavy failures from a worker to be able to legally fire them. Companies usually decide to lay off people instead. Since you didn’t go to work, the company would be entitled to subtract whatever they pay you in the hours you weren’t there (which is way more than what you end up getting post taxes, so be prepared to earn way less than the days you missed), so there would be SOME consequence.


  • It’s useful when you want to write some algorithm using specific versions of libraries. It first craps out wrong functions but after 1 or 2 redirects it usually shoots something that I then adapt to my use-case. I usually try googling it first but when most fucking guides use the new way of coding and I’m forced to use fixed versions due to company regulations, it gets frustrating to check if every function of known algorithms is available in the version I’m using and if it’s not, which replacement would be appropriate.

    It might hallucinate from time to time but it usually gives me good enough ideas/alternatives for me to be able to work around it.

    I also use it to format emails and obscure hardware debugging. It’s pretty bad but pretty bad is better than again, 99% of google results suggesting the same thing. GPT suggests you a different thing once you tell it you tried the first one.

    As always, it’s a tool and knowing that the answers aren’t 100% accurate and you need to cross-check them is enough to make it useful.

    this happens in most consultant works and most workplaces that depend on project deadlines. Also IT and/or security world. There might have been an extra lack of workforce for a week and even if that was bad planning, when that workforce returns that employee isn’t as required as it was in the week they were off, this applies to most factory work where they also have deadlines and production peaks. There are tons of cases in which your statement is just not true. Also, no one said that the workplace was at the brink of collapse, what I said is that if deadlines are not met, the company might suffer a loss and that should reflect on some kind of consequence on the worker that didn’t show up to work.

    Your statement is just as conditional as mine, yet more widely accepted because if the boss did something excessive (firing them) everything around it must be bad.

    Fantasy scenario? have you even worked in consulting and project deadlines? It’s my everyday life.

    In any case, let it be clear that the boss is a piece of shit and that although consequences should be in place, firing is way overboard. I’m just being a tad pedantic and saying that no, they are not a hypocrite necessarily.
