@kroner Literally the Python community has been suffering the same problem long before Rust.

Though most of the hate from Rust seems to stem from a theory that it was made to undermine the GPL by rewriting GPLd programs in it.

@xianc78 tinfoil theory: installing unstable people who only have their cultist in-group (which will destroy them for dissent, like cults do) is perfect to get backdoors into things.

@xianc78 yeah I get it, it's better to actually promote sane people engaging with the hobby than to abandon it, declare it untouchable and say anyone who likes it is a troon. In the end there wouldn't be any hobbies left if we did that with everything.

I really hate how liking a hobby that has been overrun by a certain demographic or people of a certain ideology means that you are probably of said demographic or ideology.

Like it gets really annoying that people will call you a tranny for being in to something like ROM hacking or installing Arch Linux on microwave ovens. Let me enjoy what I fucking enjoy. I'm in to that stuff and cutting my dick off has never crossed my mind.

I forget that there are people that see software and think "politics, the most important pillar of software" and then wonder why everybody but the clique hates them

I think I'm slowly getting the hand of SDL. Going back and forth between C and C++ style syntax is something I need to get used to, but my experience has been mostly pleasant so far.

Note: this is not a game I plan on releasing. This is just me messing with spritesheets.

THE DECLARE WAR LIE

They want you to believe the president can unilaterally take the U.S to war – just as long as they don’t call it a war.

But that’s not what the Constitution says, that’s not how the Founders understood it or followed it in practice.👇

🚨"Starting December 27, Australians will now need to upload their ID every time they're logged in to do an internet search."

"It's been put in place to stop kids engaging with adult content, but it actually affects all of us."

"It'll link to your digital ID, or you'll use something like facial recognition."

Newsflash: This isn't really to protect children, but extreme totalitarian incursions on freedom and privacy always require a benign and innocent sounding pretext to dupe the gullible into accepting them without resistance.

@ergo @bajax @noyoushutthefuckupdad Some of them do have those things. I have one that even has FM radio and it's still marketed as a voice recorder.

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @ergo @bajax If you only care about playing music, just get a digital voice recorder. They are basically the same thing as you can load MP3 files onto them and they even have playlist functionality, plus they are much more durable from my experience.

A new model of mp3 player that's Rockbox compatible? And it has real buttons, no shitty touchscreen? And it has a headphone jack, no bluetooth required? And it's under 100 bucks? I might get one of these and finally replace my multiple Sansa Clip Zips.
