    people who take camera pictures of their screen instead of doing a proper screenshot should not call themselves developers

      I prefer copying the text on the terminal and pasting it, due to most platforms using jpeg compression on png uploads, making written text worse.

      As I wander through the desolate wastes of this once-great land, surrounded by the ruins of structures grand enough to have been constructed by the gods themselves, I am constantly haunted by the glare of the despot responsible for it all. His gaze stares down upon me as though reaching inside my soul to condemn my rebellious heart.

      Despite the untold lives he has ruined, my conditioning is so strong that I am compelled to drop to my knees and shout, “Oh, Mighty One! You will never give us up, you will never let me down, you will never hurt me.”

      But as I stand in the middle of a desert with nobody to hear my cries, I know deep down that he has indeed let me down. Still, the conditioning is too strong. We are strangers to love, and you know the rules—so do I. I wouldn’t get this from any other guy. The cult would never accept me back if I were to renounce my faith.

      With all that in mind, I wander into the desert, knowing there’s no water for miles, promising I’m never gonna run around.

      It’s a recent thing for me. I think XQC (think that’s a streamer) and the end of this link is XcQ with an upper case W just before. I don’t think I’ll never not notice now.

      In germany we don’t open this link, we say “XcQ der Link bleibt zu.” and i think it’s beautiful.

    I think mplayer has an ASCII output mode (VLC, too?), and I believe youtube-dl can output to stdout.

    The rest is, as they say, left as an exercise to the reader.

      We work as software engineers and my colleague works on a particular application for one of our clients and I shit you not the following happens regularly.

      • Colleague emails client with a change log for the latest publish.
      • Client prints off the email and annotates it with a pen.
      • Takes a photo of the printed out email.
      • Attaches it to his reply.

        This is probably preferable to when something is written with a “pen” tool and a mouse, so you have mspaint style handwriting.

          It’s much faster to take a photo and immediately send it by email, or transfer it via bluetooth/airdrop to your computer.

        In KDE I hotkeyed Super+PrtSc to run flameshot gui, so I can instantly get very good custom screen shots that I can annotate or whatever if I want. Then Alt+Super+PrtSc takes a screenshot of both displays and saves it to a custom folder

    If you are opening a text shell on windows you deserve it. Wsl should just send you to a gulag instead.

    When I said that Microsoft has a lot to learn from Linux, Ubuntu Server is not what I had in mind 😂

    Aww, I read that as a brilliant:
    “Write a short ad…”,
    …instead of:
    “Watch a short ad”.

    Original wasn’t exactly about working for corporate, but rather about consuming their poison, wasn’t it?
