Bad trigger discipline
Here’s what we’re gonna do. We’re going to do the equivalent of x11 application network transparency but with wayland.
Kind of like streaming a desktop with sunshine, but on an app by app basis.
Also we’re gonna make a client that work for it on android, windows and in a browser.
Then I’m going to fuck you in the ass
Jesus Christ, how old is that Pi?
12
I appreciate the usage of the pi 1 and not one of the newer versions.
Maybe I’m just old but old pi was special
Pi 1 was an amazing idea, I ordered one as a sonon as they were available and then never used it for anything. I’ve bought way to many pis since then.
Could’ve got me there quicker by telling me the truth
That’s not socks that’s a gun
please don’t make me read another bjarne book. the last time i read one it made me want to stop programming
My type of stay-at-home wife works on OSS projects all day
I better be getting pegged at the end of the night if she makes me suffer by writing C++.
All Linux enthusiasts are attractive women.
I’ll settle for girlish and overknees
Even if they are men?
Especially if they are men
Nothing says “I love you” quite like a surprise LFS install.
When you find out your partner is into BDSM…
Put the gun away and throw that cpp book in the bin, fool. I brought The Linux Kernel Programming Guide, which is in C, and my own socks, which are wool. Now let’s gets crackin.
Bonus points for some Rust device drivers.
Never touched rust, so I don’t understand the hype. I’m not arguing against it, mind you, but I’m gathering, more and more, that it’s worth a look. Maybe I’ll look into it after work.
I already use linux. My feet have been getting cold lately. it never occurred to me to get wool socks. Is this how it starts? Are skirts next?
Unless you use goat wool socks. Then you can go for a old school hippie build. Sandals, long hair, tie dye shirt and go from there.

Girl, I will wear whatever socks you want, but pulls out my own gun We’re reading this damn book instead.
how does it compare to k&r (2nd ed.)?
Honestly, I prefer King’s book to any other for intro to C programming. K&R is a classic, and is really quite good for diving into some cool tricks (i.e. postfix operation wizardy).
But as a beginner, I can just say that King’s book is much more digestible. The author holds your hand a lot more and assumes you only have a basic knowledge of programming and the UNIX command line.
That said, the exercises and simple projects do push you to demonstrate what you learned in each chapter as well as enforcing other Computer Science fundamentals like basic data structures (stacks, queues, linked lists) through demonstrations in the C language.
My plan is to revisit K&R after a few other books in C like Advanced Programming In The Unix Environment, Unix Network Programming, and The Linux Programming Interface.
I feel like by then I’ll hopefully have a more solid grasp on C and can then more aptly appreciate The K&R Book.
Don’t kink shame her
Why no K&R?

Lol. I prefer the New Testament.
for command line apps bash, python, perl, ruby and similiar high level languages are more than enough. You can write some Kali Lincox the louder you are the less you hear network probe stuff with any of these, or even a storage optimizer (BleachBit is almost entirely written in Python, which is a very highly abstracted language implemented from C) Rust and C are only needed for performance-crtitical stuff (like rythm games) or/and directly interacting with hardware (drivers, firmware, system functions)
Don’t listen to the newbie above. You can use whatever language you are comfy with that works for your situation.
i never said you can’t. But high level languages were made for high level programming, and low level for low level programming. If you only know C, sure, you can write a desktop music player, but it will be much harder than just using Java, or even Python, since both of these languages are known about their extensive prewritten libraries. And you have to write much less, which means less room for error. Using a high level language will also benefit you if you decide to port your app to a drasticly different operating system. You can use the same codebase for Python, and for Java too to seamlessly run the program on any other os supported by these languages. In C, you need to adjust a lot of things, i know from experience that Linux C source can compile and run on windows, but it is extremely rare and can introduce bugs. However, you are right that C is highly multifunctional. If you know it, you can write any low level software or desktop app. And it also runs mich faster than any high level intrepeted language. And even if i could be considered a beginner, i actually study software development and testing, so i have an idea what i’m talking about
“However you are right that…” I did not make the claim you are telling me I am right for making. I think a bot wrote this.
