All well and good but Arch is best and it’s what I use btw.

Try AwesomeWM. Or if you are determined to have a tiling only then QTile is good.

Probably the opposite.

Our “higher reasoning” and “state of awareness” (needs defining) gives us the ability to do thigns other animals can’t. For example chronic pain sufferers are taught how to manage their pain with a variety of CBT techniques. Not something you can teach a dog or cat.

People in intense periods of intense suffering may have thw ability to dissociate from the experience (“go to their happy place”) to lessen the pain experience.

We’re not aware animal shave this ability.

If anything mammals of all kinds that feel pain don’t have our higher cognitive ability to help manage and supress it.

Having said that it’s possible we feel more emotionally complex pain. Pain induced from our own minds by remembering trauma or imagining painful situations. As someone pointed out below a dying animal probably isn’t thinking about the loss of it’s family as it’s dying. But it will be feeling the pain of dying acutely.

I wrote my compiler in Haskell because it seemed that it’d be much less hassle compared to do it in a object oriented or procedual language.

That is not a feeling I’d associate with Haskell!!

Hello Mr Hong Kongnese. I’m a Brit. We don’t boil water here and I’ve visisted Iceland - they don’t boil it either.

Oh my god - I’d completely forgotten about that place! I just checked and it’s stil alive: https://astalavista.box.sk/search/

I remember it being dark blue when I used it back in the 90s though.

I admin-ed my own vBulletin board around 04-06. The script itself cost about £90 back then. It was so great though. Small community of like-minded people all chattng. It was like a slow-Discord or a more intimate Reddit.

I installed a ton of extensions for people to play Flash games at one point too.

One day I accidentally forgot to pay hosting and the site vanished. Lost it all. Never bothered relaunching.

Top 3 most upvoted comments always being unfunny puns was getting insufferable on Reddit. Everyone was trying to be a fucking comedian - that’s what was popular and got upvotes.

The early Reddit you could have long, interesting arguments with people and you’d both be getting upvoted because you’re both making interesting points.

It honestly feels like my brain is waking up from a digital coma since coming to Lemmy from Reddit. My own personality and opinions don’t feel pointlessly supressed and sanitised.

“I didn’t put a WHERE clause in that DELETE statement”

Pretty sure Voat was based off the opensource version of Reddit. Which is basically old reddit with non of the Spam protection built into it.

For Brits: Swap “Mexican” for “Indian” or “Polish”

Also buy your spices from Indian supermarkets/shops/sections of Asda rather than getting Schwartz jars.

E.g. My local Asda sells a jar of Schwartz cinamon for £2.50. The next aisle sells cinammon in a bag of 3x the amount for £1! Same for rice, noodles and many other ‘foreign’ foods. Polish meat section can often be cheaper than the normal sections.
