Yeah, they could have applied a logarithm or something.

I’d prefer to see downloads per country per capita.

The concerning thing is, wouldn’t this affect yt dlp too?

Yes of course, I agree this is the rationale for sure. Still I blame Microsoft (and Sega as I’ve just discovered) for this.

:O I had I idea!!

Yes, I know I can remap, but I’m just too stupid to be able to remember that the confirm/cancel buttons are swapped so I’m constantly messing that up. It’s especially a problem on the steam deck, which has Microsoft’s layout.

Somehow, when I’m holding an xbox controller, my brain just knows that the A button has to be the south button.

See the other comment.

The problem is that they took Nintendo’s button names (ABXY) and transposed their positions. It’s utter chaos, and very hard for me at least to remember that A is B and B is A.

Oh they’re very good controllers! The problem is that they took Nintendo’s button names (ABXY) and transposed their positions. It’s utter chaos, and very hard for me at least to remember that A is B and B is A.

Playstation, by contrast, came up with entirely new button symbols, so it’s much less confusing that O -> A.

The APIs for gamepad interfacing are a total mess now, with some based on button names and some on position (south/east/west/north).

Xbox controller is the worst thing to happen to emulation

Docs and testing have no bravado, but they’re important. If they’re dragging you down, use your problem-solving brain and find a way to make them work for you.

You’re probably right about that. It is irritating though that we’ve added more syllables.

I’m just grumpy because I don’t like random change for no reason. I think I’m probably in the 99th percentile for how irritated I get when software or a website changes its layout. I also haven’t seen any trustworthy anecdotes of people who find the term blacklist/whitelist offensive to them, but I don’t really go looking either. Perhaps I should.

I think people should be concerned about things on others’ behalfs. We all need to stick together.

This situation is a send-up though. Totally not a concern.

Evil forces of darkness and good forces of light is engrained into our cultural DNA. Night=dangerous, day=safe is just something you have to learn early as a woman, it is a fact of society and we can’t pretend it isn’t.

Dark lord, black rider, white knight… why focus on whitelist/blacklist specifically?

Just use C

Why is this programmer humour?

Yes that was clear to me. I was saying that, while I don’t find same-sex content objectionable (indeed it makes me happy to see this kind of representation on screen), and I personally think it’s something children should be exposed to, many people would disagree. Just like other tags on here which I think children shouldn’t be exposed to at a young age but others wouldn’t mind. Relative morality.

Politically speaking, I would be happier if those who oppose same-sex relationships were to change their minds. They pose a threat to my life. But FOSS is for everyone, even people I disagree with.

All of these represent various social mores. I’d have no problem with my kids seeing content involving fantasy violence, but I respect that others might object. As a bisexual myself, I have less respect for those who object to their kids seeing homosexuality specifically, but I can tolerate their existence.

For fairness’ sake, I wouldn’t mind it if heterosexuality were on the list too.

Would you expect lower or higher?

I hate Jira because it’s slow and there’s no CLI interface
