@PalePimp @synapsid @AmericanChampion @EdBoatConnoisseur @PopulistRight @PraxisOfEvil The REEEing is hilarious, at least when viewed from a safe distance.

@AJEnglish Imagine just scheduling your elections in the winter...

@Jonny @NorseRealist No. They only need to say they do. Goths are inherently posers and as such buy all their "bespoke" clothing from retail stores.

@NorseRealist @Jonny Goodwill is just hipster retail these days.

first century wise posting

Gnosticism in a nutshell. And if you collect enough wisdom you can transcend to become an immortal buddha christlike figure.

backup what ever they are saying with scripture.

People lean on this too much. So much so that they miss the whole point of the religion.

@hazlin @theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @gnarley_boot "For they look, but they don’t really see. They hear, but they don’t really listen or understand."

Thumpers tend to spend more time memorizing the verse numbers of gotchas than trying to understand the point of what they are reading. They know ever letter by heart but not a single word. The more you understand the less you need to cite sources since the truth proceeds on its own and anyone who is conversing honestly can see it.

@hazlin @theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @gnarley_boot A quarter of the new testament is a snailmail hellthread between Peter and Paul.

@hazlin @theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @gnarley_boot The actual relation is questionable; there are no records to indicate that the author of the epistle was actually Jesus' blood brother. All we have is the claims within James' own writings, which we know are highly motivated towards his revolutionary aims. It might have been that Paul was less concerned about the potential blood of James and Jesus and a lot more concerned about his own blood should he sufficiently piss off James. Who knows...

St. Augustine sure didn't think much of the epistle of James.

@hazlin @theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @gnarley_boot I personally don't consider the epistle of James to be scripture. I do consider the first book of Enoch to be scripture, though it is very old and likely suffered a fair bit of linguistic drift over time.

@MK2boogaloo @theorytoe @hazlin Can you really say you follow a religion if you haven't read their holy texts?

@gnarley_boot @theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @hazlin Lazy is the key word. The Bible isn't even that long.

@Suiseiseki Since you seem young, let me help you out a bit. Your response was such a soft troll that I'm bored of the direct banter already. Here's some pointers:

I'm smoking GNU/freedom

Should have just let that one slide. It was a light introductory personal insult to set the tone for my response. You don't get any troll points for a shitty earnest reply. A better response would have been "The crack that you glowies sell in the ghetto", if you were going to respond at all. It chains off your first insult nicely.

nonfree installation recipies, etc.

Nobody cares. Gentoo is widely seen as a FOSS-friendly, non-glowing distro, which is why I used it in my response to your first troll. A better comeback would have been "Gentoo. Nice cover. Luring people in to think that compiling from source somehow makes your NSA backdoors go away."

... SPECIFIC ...

My previous message accused you of being a wordcel and your reply merely reinforced it. Instead, you should have taken the argument that using genericized (in the general, not legal, sense) names for services only serves to reinforce their marketing efforts. I would probably respond that nobody knows what the other services are, and then you could reply "Exactly. Because people like you, who know better, continue to prop up Big Tech." See how that could have bent into your favor?

Kleenex

Once again, this was just an insult, a way of mocking you, as is part of the banter game. As this is the closing insult (before the last little jab), you should also close your response with another insult in kind. Maybe something about bootlicking, or perhaps accuse me of being a paid shill since that would open other attack avenues later on. "Does your CIA handler pay you per trademark used like that guy from Idiocracy, or do you just like sucking corpo cock? Maybe you're so used to it that you don't even notice anymore".

shit taste

Now there you go! Good job, the only well-crafted jab in your reply. Keep it up. As a reward, I'll actually respond to that one:

What would you know about taste, poser? I bet you aren't even writing your own git web-server software from scratch in C in your spare time. https://notabug.org/yzziizzy/git_webstack/

@theorytoe @MK2boogaloo @hazlin Switch to C. Fire anyone who can't handle it. Win-win scenario. Should clear out a lot of the bozos.

@mikerotch @matrix My allocators all use large blocks received from the platform adapter (anon mmap()). They get this only after the SO is loaded and starts making requests back to the platform adapter. There can be no allocation happening before that. Also there're no functions called in the SO before the main entrypoint, no implicit setup for global constructors.

@jeffcliff @matrix @mikerotch 0x to 3x is about knowledge. 4x to 10x is about wisdom. Wisdom is very difficult to teach and nearly impossible to logically codify. I get more done than 3x devs because I don't waste time on 3x pitfalls.

@mikerotch @matrix @jeffcliff Yup. It's rather tedious. But that's not a bad thing when you're being paid to copypaste/use sed, all things considered.

@mikerotch @matrix @jeffcliff Fuck Apple.

But it's not important. Leaving x86 will once again relegate them to obscurity.

@mikerotch @matrix @jeffcliff I wrote Go for a while professionally. It's really hard to make a clusterfuck in. There's not a lot of power, but mainly your midwit coworkers can't get their sticky retard fingers on something like templates or macros.

@jeffcliff @matrix @mikerotch Stop using VSCode, for one.
