We actually use the Tufnel scale here. 11/11.

Because it has been clinically proven that people on Lemmy are 10% more attractive.

Simple living is a hoax perpetuated by big small to make you buy more less.

Any particular languages?

I’m a guitarist myself. Piano is certainly up there on the list of skills I wish I had.

I’m a hobbyist programmer myself. I’ve picked up a few languages along the way, and by far the best approach I have found to learning is a simple but real practical use case. Find the smallest task you want your program to do, break it down into even smaller subsections, and then start to figure out how to transform it into code. It usually takes less code and knowledge about a language than you think.

Sounds like your circle is growing apart. It happens. In this particular case, some personalities have grown enough to not be compatible with some of the others.

I’m not good at situations like these, so I don’t really have a solution for you, other than accepting the fact that your circle of six will soon no longer be six. Stick to the ones who are still reasonable, and with time the toxic ones will either remain so among themselves or will push away the part of the group that is more in line with how you’re perceiving the social dynamic.

Rtx on/off meme template;

“Off” is a greyscale picture of metacat struggling with manual dependencies. Possibly combined with “Isn’t there a better way?” from ye olde shopping channel ads.

“On” Is a HDR image of a smiling metacat having no such issues. In the background a rainbow can be seen over a flowery garden, in which people are holding hands with rabbits frolicking in the grass.

Yeah yeah, I know, I’ll go to bed now…

Create a linux mint install USB. When you boot from it, you’ll be in a fully functional linux OS, without installing anything. This way you can try it out before making a commitment.

Although a recurring recommendation is to install linux on a second PC to try it for a while.

Roughly 20 years ago that was the case for me as well. Late night D&D sessions every day for months straight was the cause.

I just grab whatever gets a scene release on my preferred piracy site, provided that it does not involve superheroes or something else that has saturated screens for the past 15 years. And when I find myself on an airplane I look through what I have on my portable USB drive and pick something, mostly at random, because I like knowing as little as possible about a movie before watching it, to the point where I consider trailers to be spoilers.

There’s this group that provides Christmas meals for people who otherwise wouldn’t have one. Homeless people et al.

It’s pretty cheap and easy to donate - send an SMS to a number and get billed a small sum on the next phone bill, and the cost is enough to cover said meal for two people.

My work phone bill is sent and automatically paid my employer, so I make sure they donate to the same cause. I’ve been doing it for years and to this day no employer has gone on the record not in support of the cause.

Yes, that’s me asking a question in good faith in an attempt at clarify a definition for something of which I may have had an outdated one. It’s called growth. You should look it up.

Any mod would want to do their due diligence to not make their users look like a bunch of lunatics.

I’m afraid that ship sailed long before OP entered the chat.

My solution in perl back in the day when I was a teenage hobbyist who didn’t know about the modulus operator: Divide by 2 and use regex to check for a decimal point.

if ($num / 2 =~ /\./) { return “odd” }
else { return “even” }

I’ve been working a lot with ships, and the same issue is prevalent there. On the smaller boats DC is used, and this is usually stepped up and inverted when higher voltages or AC is needed. This is usually fine unless we’re talking about a lot of current-hungry hardware such as sidescan sonars etc.

12V is fine for recreational boats only. 24V is the only viable DC voltage for industrially equipped boats (I was involved with outfitting a tiny ROV boat with a side scan sonar… all the equipment was 24V, while the mains were 12V. It was a pain in the ass to manage.)

48V would make things a lot easier, as that’s standard for a lot of high power equipment such as radars.
