...yes, that's what I said. But sign them locally. Do not put your private key on Protons service. Sign and distribute pub keys locally.

Probably should have clarified.

Also, paid IMAP/SMTP makes Proton a freemium service. Thought I should just underline that.

No, I wasn't referring to her. FFS. Like I understand why you would say that, because him considering his own suffering is just too selfish to be taken into consideration when asking why he did it, and us considering it as a part of his decision making process or that laws and systemic issues line this shit up like bowling pins? Noo! That's not allowed when considering motive... he's just EVIL which is a scientific term and influenced by SATAN because he DIDNT VOTE REPUBLICAN and probably LIVED AMONGST IMMIGRANTS /s

Like seriously, Americans are fucking stupid sometimes.

Bro... I just listed the reasons... like if you don't want to understand human nature, human psychology, sociology or why systemic issues are apart of creating the conditions that would allow this to happen, then that's your dumbass problem.

Like seriously. Read a fucking book - and not the Abrahamic ones. Those rot your brain.

"Evil" is a social construct for people in the dark ages, because it holds as much merit as believing in fairies.

Again, you are really in denial of human nature, and as such don't know that the conditions I mentioned set the stage for this kind of thing to happen.

Do you know that you can be corrupted, that you can commit murder, if the conditions are right?

Wouldn't put it past them. Dubai is built on the backs of slaves.

In fact, it reminds a lot of old US slavery. Enforcers, catchers, etc. The whole shebang.

"Inconvenienced"?

Oh I'm sorry. Taking care of someone for the rest of their lives, not being able to, not having the means to and all the while suffering for it is something you think is a walk in the fucking park?

I think the key word here is "suffer". Americans worship suffering. It gives them a hard on. So when someone wants to end the suffering, that's an insult. Typical ugly American mentality, devoid of any understanding for human nature and full of piss and vinegar. Also, it's unrealistic and kind of naive, because I bet this happens more often than you think - but it's hard to actually figure out. Why? Let me count the ways.

You have a judicial system committing mass judicial murder on a weekly basis "because you can't afford the fight the case", a for profit health sector that would pull plugs in concert if an insurance company told them to, doctors and surgeons dodging malpractice suits on a cross-state basis like it's a sport and you're probably happy knowing he'll be sent to a for profit prison system that makes profits in the billions, where he'll become a slave for the state to "pay back his debt to society".

But sure, means and needs were not the issue. He should have pulled himself up by his bootstraps and gotten that 4th job.

Both are great projects really, and big projects at that - big stacks, lots of moving parts.

Whereas GNOME tries to be more uniform, Plasma tries to be more bespoke.

I don't care which one you use, really. I just love GNOME design principles and it's desktop paradigm.

Is GNOME a perfect project? No. But when these troglodytes crawl out of their discord servers, I just can't help but be infuriated by their pure malice and ignorance.

So fuck em. I'm done with this thread.

You have a nice day now, y'hear?

"16 years of paving the way for Plasma".

There, fixed that for you.

[–] taanegl@lemmy.world -5 points 6 months ago

Huh, I guess you're getting to them then with your massive winging. Guess you'll get your Rube Goldberg desktop you want and still complain.

"most very useful".

List. Tell me which ones.

Do not, I repeat, do not infodump on someone today.

Hi, my brain is wired so that it obsesses over details, combs through data and sifts through documentation, over decades even, only some poor soul to give me attention, which promptly opens up the spigot.

Please be advised, you will know why VST2 instrument plugins can take audio input, but only because Native Instruments sort of "hacked it in" during the 2000s, even though it wasn't apart of the VST2 specification, which Steinberg obviously isn't a fan of, because even to this day Cubase won't recognise audio inputs from VST2 instruments in Cubase, but you can with VST 3 instrument plugins, and even though VST4 was at some point announced, it was presumably scrapped because plans for VST5 was leaked time after, but never actually came into fruition. Really though, vendors should be distributing CLAP plugins and contributing back to CLAP, because we could really use an open standard beyond Steinberg's proprietary SDK, but then people like Native Instruments, Arturia, etc would have to "port their plugins" over to CLAP, which shouldn't be too hard since it's sort of API compatible - though not really - but since they won't see instant returns they probably won't dedicate the billable hours... so anyways, I program Maxforlive devices nowadays - oh, wait. Butterfly...
