Is there a (Linux) command I can run to check my power consumption?

especially if you’re looking for a physical gift

Yep, it’s a git! :)

The short term goal is only to learn the absolute basics of programming. I only mentioned GIS to give some context on why I was narrowing down the language to python.

She’s familiar with all the keywords you mentioned as she already works in GIS, just not as a developer.

Looks great, thanks a bunch! EDIT: ordered it! :D

The only one pretending mistakes can’t happen is the person I replied to. Mistakes definitely can happen and no programming language is fool proof.

Continuing my car analogy, would you rather drive a car with airbags and seatbelts or one without them? Of course you can still have a fatal accident, but it’s nice to have safety features that make it as unlikely as possible.

Every car has airbags if you drive well enough. Right?

If you try with a Tor browser you’ll get a unique ID everytime.

Feel free to try this one instead: https://www.amiunique.org/fingerprint

Or whatever website you prefer, really. Fingerprinting is not solved by a single extension or checkbox. It’s really hard.

• Go here: https://fingerprint.com/demo/
• Note your fingerprint ID
• Wait whatever time you want
• Try again
• It’s the same ID You can try to fool it with a VPN, change country, etc but it doesn’t work. Fingerprinting is very strong these days.

It’s hard for me to believe that hunter / food seeker isn’t the oldest profession… But it’s definitely up there.

You may find it laughable but it is what it is. Most people does not enjoy signing up for specific product forums. It’s much easier to just add yet another discord server to the list.

That’s a very neat idea, to be honest. I hadn’t thought of that!

Unfortunately this doesn’t work in Portugal. Most sales people don’t have any sort of training in the products they sell and they are heavily pressured into selling services rather than products. Your budget is 200 euros? They’re going to try to suggest you a 100 euros product and then try to get you to buy extended warranty and/or insurance.

Thanks for sharing, I’ll definitely start asking there!

The mechanical keyboard topic was just an example. Because I’m kinda into mechanical keyboards, I can instantly spot the obviously bad recommendations. If the topic was something like microphones or washing machines, I’d be toast.

I don’t know how you read my comment and concluded that I approve racism or homofobia. It’s these kind of comments that push people away.

Vegan and non vegans are are at the opposite extremes. One only eats meat, the other never eats meat. You can’t insult people into your way. No one wants to have a conversation with you when you just randomly accuse them of homofobia. In your future attempt try going easier and with baby steps. People are more likely to stop eating meat if they take it one step at a time. This ridiculous expectation that someone must change their lifestyle over night or they’re racists… This isn’t the way, statistically speaking. But alas, this is a pointless discussion because you already know this and just want to fight with a stranger on the internet. Have a nice day.

This is not how you get people to join your ideas, this is how you push them away further.

I wish it was more popular so more job offers would pop up :P

So? If a Java dev wants to learn Rust, they’ll make it. There are a lot of burned out Java devs wanting to move to something that feels new and exciting again.

What’s so surprising about that?
