I don't play a lot of games but one thing I've noticed over the years is that the best games with the best communities are more niche. Like Xonotic for instance. It has a fair number of players; there's always at least one or

You're harsh but that's OK. There is a lot of truth in what you're saying. I really wish people would quit downvoting everything they disagree with. HN would be 100x better if both the downvote and flag buttons were removed.

I had D support in my distro for a while, but regrettably had to remove it. There's just too many problems with this language and how it's packaged and offered to the end user, IMO. It was too much hassle to keep it around. To get

Ask the guy who was robbed. Maybe he can give you a clue.

In fact theft is always unlawful, no matter what alternate name you give it or how many of your fellow thieves and vampires approve of the crime.

The subject of this conversation is your desire to rob me.

Your perspective is you want to take my hard-earned money and give it to some pothead to sit at home and "do artwork." My perspective is I'd rather keep my weed money to myself. And that's exactly what I shall do. Want t

It's a "he", not a "they", FYI. In case you were considering actually addressing its thoughts, rather than attacking some ridiculous strawman.

Jesus Christ didn't like taxation either. He preached that it was theft also. That's one big reason why they murdered him, then sent Paul (aka Saul) along to invent a new 'explanation' of the Parable of the Coin more fav

Because I go long periods of time without internet access, and I don't want to have to "sudo apt install" a fucking thing, ever. Especially not a tiny utility that is all of 172k in size, that I might need for something. Unde

I maintain my position that this project is a complete waste of time which exists only due to the abomination that is copyright law. (Without that reason, the author would have easily recognized this project as a waste of time, would he not

I am the one doing it better. GNU software is slowly being deprecated on my system, starting with glibc.

Maybe the lesson here is to stop letting the GNU folks do things, if this is what they do. This is only one example of craziness coming out of the GNU camp.

That link goes to a page full of random garbage. No commits there to be seen. Apparently the owners of that website don't like my choice of user agent, and have decided to punish me accordingly.

Ubuntu and derivates removing telnet from the default install, along with other basic tools like traceroute etc, was one of the driving factors toward me creating my own distro. I'm sick of basic stuff being omitted because somebody ju

Excuse me? You seem to have lost track of the topic of conversation. It was that all of your bullshit excuses why sysvinit can't possibly work are just that: bullshit. You have been deceived.

For this entire time, my position has been that the people trying to put everything in the cloud were idiots who would come to regret this. Thus explaining my sarcasm. It's time to fire back with both barrels at the dumbasses who rolle
