And since javascript libraries tend to be so small and focused

Lol, LMAO even

But Windows is less secure. Two things can be true at once. They are in the original topic too.

The Java ecosystem is massive and decades old and I don’t hear one iota of the shit about maven central that I hear about npm.

I guarantee that npm is full up with vibe coded bullshit at this point as well.

I’m not sure what it even takes to upload a package to npm. Not even a pulse. I honestly never looked into it because the whole ecosystem is so rancid.

EDIT: Look at how many shits in this are optional (and note the overall quality of the article as well): https://dev.to/aneshodza/publishing-your-first-npm-library-51k2. The ecosystem sucks.

Both. It’s both.

Ok so after another reply it was then. Bye!

I’d recommend you bow out of this one, it’s abundantly clear that you’re in over your head here.

I’d recommend you see a shrink because you’re escalating the importance of yourself and of one of the stupidest arguments I’ve ever seen.

Should I block you now, or after the next wall of text you produce?

That a particular post “sounds” fake as hell is indeed a specific, qualified claim.

I’m not saying that nothing similar ever happened at any point in time which is what you’re trying to get me to defend. I’m saying that this particular post sounds fake as hell.

That is not what I commented.

Why are so many arguments on the Internet started like this where a specific, qualified claim is made and then the response tries to pretend a universal, unqualified, ridiculous claim was made instead?

Sounds fake as hell tbh

I wrote my own. It’s one of the easiest possible services to write.

Hey, I know this one. I’ve had it since I was a small child but didn’t quite know the name.

They lock essential things (e.g. food, water, shelter, medical services, etc.) behind a paywall because they know it is not true that people do not always—or even usually—want money.

But people do need essentials to live, and if they’re the only ones who can give you money to get those, then they can order you to do what they want instead.

They did open the strait though, just to anyone who will pay a $2 million bribe in not USD.

People say I’m weird. Okay, I was raised by a very weird family in very weird circumstances, doing my best to be sane and normal in a weird situation.

I feel for you. At least some members of my family are either psychopaths, have narcissistic personality disorder, or both. I think the comorbidity there is pretty common.

The lifelong damage caused by being raised around sociopaths is real — as is the continuing damage from living in a country run by them.

Having empathy in this society run by psychopaths is depressing and anxiety-inducing indeed.

It bleeds into everything in this whole place. You know when you’re using something — a government system, a website, a support line, an application — and it feels like nobody thought about how shitty the experience would be for you? That’s what it feels like to live in a society that has no empathy. The people that design these systems do not give a shit about how you’ll feel being subjected to them, because they have no empathy and have never considered nor cared what your experience would be like.

I remember ratio FTP sites

(I also remember how to make them look like you’re uploading a lot quickly using a 14.4k modem…by uploading files full of null bytes and using the compression to your advantage.)

It makes more sense to me conceptually if I just imagine that most people in this country in the last decade had the tops of their skulls removed, had someone take a dump in there, and then seal it back up.

Seems like there are a lot of 💩🧠s floating around nowadays.

The “you’re holding it wrong” of open source software.

Eh, not really dude. Linux cannot possibly account for each and every unique hardware combination that is put to market – some of which are being invented as I type this sentence.

Some hardware is written with firmware that falls outside of standards and specs and some hardware producers are actively hostile to people providing support for their hardware on alternative platforms. Computer hardware and peripherals are a huge market with lots of players. I’m saying if Linux support is important to you, then make it part of your evaluation criteria when you buy new hardware. Or don’t if it isn’t.

Linux doesn’t have significant enough consumer market share to pressure hardware manufacturers into providing support for them, and it also is a free operating system – not one helmed by a massive multi-national corporation that can use billions of dollars to pressure hardware manufacturers into following their whims.

So it’s not software that doesn’t work but hardware that’s weird then? Sure, makes sense.

Next time you buy hardware look it up. Once you’re on stuff that’ll work in Linux you should be able to jump over easily then.

I don’t play any of these particular games but I have other software that doesn’t run on Linux without considerable effort.

Anything that isn’t a game can typically be run on a virtual machine.

I wondered what Nathan Fielder was up to lately.
