Which instance? We should maintain a list of these instances to ensure we don’t lose our data due to idiots like them.

Installed 22.04 few months ago, did my configs, and then subscribed to Ubuntu Pro (free for five devices). Now I can enjoy a stable experience for at least a decade.

This loser spends his days trolling everywhere. He is an insecure jobless brat that nobody IRL gives a shit about, so he lives with negative attention online. This is the second time I am seeing him somewhere.

Yesterday, I made a choice that was very tough for me to make. So three years ago, I had a best friend, and we both liked each other. Things got hard because my feelings went too far, I became emotionally unstable and turned into an attention seeker. So because of that, I then ended the friendship.

Recently, she added me back. I thought we could be friends again because I felt like I improved my mental state in the last two years and won’t turn into an attention seeker again. Well, a week later, I was the same as I was three years ago.

It was ruining my mental health severely. I couldn’t focus on anything. But I still wasn’t ready to give up on the friendship because she was a very nice friend, and I still liked her for some reason. So I refused to give up. But things got worse real quick, and then I decided to write a long message to her explaining why I can’t continue this friendship and then I blocked her everywhere.

At the cost of ending all probabilities of a future with her, I feel much better now.

Gotta do something about this attention-seeking thing, though.

Thanks for note. Do they currently have that backend?

That aside, you might want to try Nim. It’s pretty cool. It can compile to C and C++, and JS. There have been browser extensions made with it. Heck, it even has an LLVM backend. And the C code it generates it pretty fast on benchmarks. It’s filled with tons of metaprogramming stuff and AST-level macros. And it has this cool thing where it can ignore name casing of identifiers like variables and functions; so isSome == is_some.

I will try porting this project to Haskell and Coconut later. I am currently doing a rewrite of this in Nim.

They said competition, not alternatives. As things are right now, and knowing people, not just trying to make a technical point, Firefox is the only competition.

Oh yeah, I had given that a try, but the installation was too huge. It took like 2 GB. The dependecies were huge as well. But maybe it’d be less on Ubuntu. I will give it a shot again. I heard that language doesn’t have loops; I guess you’ve got to be good with recursion to get good at it lol.

Or maybe people rely on map like function of Python.

Hi, I spent some time trying out the dictd package. I also read this protocol’s specification. As things are right now, each host-name would require its own parser, because I couldn’t notice a very similar pattern between them. Webster, Jargon, wn, all these have their own standardization for including synonyms and examples.

The specification doesn’t enforce any pattern on the definitions either. I don’t think it’s going to be very useful even if I do implement it because the parsers are going to be quite complicated.

Ah that. That shouldn’t be a lot of work as all the visual stuff are done by separate functions. I can do it. I will look into it.

My OOP experience isn’t from Java, but I get your point. I don’t really have a dislike for OO; it sure does have its applications. I once met a dude who was trying to use an object oriented library in a functional way; the result of that was a mess full of complications. I feel a good balance is necessary.

You mean, like, support for the dict protocol for this program’s interface? I am also scraping a dictionary’s data, so I am a little confused.

not a fan of that font, but cool setup

I doubt Microsoft is that dumb, though.

Having to learn a programming language to get things working there makes it a distribution only for nerds.
