Expanding on this concept: Do any of these programs aimed at architects have a capability of easily exporting to blender, such that they could be imported into Unity or UE?

Yep, they’ve been called ‘gold diggers’, for quite a while now.

There is still a huge portion of American women across the political spectrum, across wealth classes, across religious or irreligious beliefs, who ultimately have a huge part of what they want in a partner be ‘how much stuff can he buy me’, who will bully or shame or guilt trip or emasculate or outright violently abuse their male partner, regardless of how hypocritical this is with their other espoused beliefs, to get them to pay for things for them or cover their debts.

Just get on tiktok or instagram, you basically can’t miss it.

Its more than just the opposite number of conservative tradwives. There are plenty of self described liberal or leftist, feminists or social activists of one kind or another that ultimately still want their male partners to provide far more for them than they provide for their partner.

Best post in this whole thread, imo.

I believe the original idea was mainly focused around making software developer’s lives easier, by (as you say) making versions of linux os’s with known, static, unchanging, immutable, standard system configurations, which could not be altered by the user.

Again, I think the main idea here was basically focused around making either new distros, or sort of locked down versions of distros such that they could be deployed in I guess an enterprise or some kind of group environment, so as to greatly streamline the process of software development.

You say ‘can receive updates’, and I am not sure if you mean higher level app updates, or lower level system updates.

When people attempted to evangelize this immutable concept to me a few years back, they would say the whole point is that lower level updates on which many other things depend do not happen, that you would have to do basically a completely new install of a new immutable version when one comes out.

Kind of like ‘more stable than stable.’

But… judging by other comments here, it would appear that this concept of immutable has uh… changed, lol.

Also, for what its worth, the Steam Deck OS is basically just a standardized version of Arch, upon which sits the whole nifty Steam Deck UI and Controller mappings, with the system set to read only by default.

You can change this and then do whatever the hell you want, if you so please.

I think its just one line in the terminal after you have set up your user as a system admin.

Presumably, the individual themself is transitioning sexes while they are also transitioning tables of one format to another, maybe from T SQL to PostGres, who knows, could be tables in any kind of language.

All things are possible through Christ lol

Ya’ll need God.

Thanks, truly.

(Hey, I’m being so sincere right now =P)

((See other reply to your other comment))

Best wishes to your cats.

Hey, I’m from the other thread, and I’m using Thunder on mobile… seeing as I ended up blocking MindTraveller to keep my blood pressure at a reasonable level, thus preventing me from seeing that whole comment chain and replying to you in that thread… and … I don’t seem to be able to initiate a dm on Thunder? Maybe because your account is based in another instance?

Just wanted to reply to you here.

Thank you. I’m 35, queer autistic man, and I somehow seem to be the most left leaning person I know IRL at nearly all times of my life, and I actually put my… boots where my ideology is, worked at non profits, volunteered, actually do the mutual aid thing.

But somehow, online, theres always somebody who in their mind is the perfect embodiment of the progressive advocate, the perfect member of society who… fairly obviously is either extremely privileged, or terminally online to the point of delusion, and they will have no problem telling you that actually you’re a pos because they have a whole fun world view that answers every question even though it bears little resemblance to reality, and your reality informed views do not align with this.

Cest la vie, thats just how things go.

Thanks again for your kind words, and I guess apologies to the mods, if someone could explain to me how to dm another user on Thunder, I’d appreciate it.

If you mean that you are having an effect on said change… oh god maybe that’s actually correct?

If you are affecting (a) change, that would mean you are basically causing change.

But if you are effecting change, said change would have to have been previously established or referenced.

I think???

English is a goddamned shit-show sometimes.

Anyway, we should bring back the interrobang, and the thorne, and also I actually love the Oxford comma even though the AP style guide hates it.

lol, you are correct!

I hope this does not affect your usage of effect in the correct context.

As a former copy editor I find the effect of using affect incorrectly eye roll inducing.

But yeah, affect is a verb, effect is a noun.

The easy rule of thumb for then/than is that if you are comparing things or qualities or quantities of things, you use than, otherwise, then is used.

The number of times I have had to explain to people who have more wealth than I ever will that Del is a key and it is different than Backspace…

Edit: Made the Yutani joke before I realized I’d been beaten to it.
