  • Different distirbutrions subscribe to different “key servers” (is that the right term?) to validate that the packages they’re getting have been signed by the right people, and not by Dick Dastardly and his crew. LibreWolf isn’t your typical Linux package, but probably on the same trustworthy level as some of “extra” packages found in other repos. My guess would be Mint subscribes to the key server where the LibreWolf dev’s key exists, and Ubuntu doesn’t because Ubuntu has a very Ubuntu™ way of doing things (I’m being a snob here).

    So I think if you really want to use LibreWolf, you will have to manually subscribe to the keyserver where the LibreWolf’s dev key is, or manually import the key yourself to validate the package.

    Anyway, welcome to the wacky races




  • Yes, we should all use rigid types. Name me one language you actually like writing quickly with that has types?

    Pyth-oh. Bash-oh. Lisp-oh. Perl-oh. Oh yeah… typed languages suck because of all the boiler

    Edit: Fine, Python / Lisp / Perl are all technically “typed” languages, but I ask you what’s point of throwing type errors at runtime. Javascript and Rust actually have it right here that the code is either going to run, or it simply isn’t. No pussyfooting letting it run first to throw complaints








  • Bonk.io, fatal flaw is that the dev simply does not a give a fuck.

    By that I mean:

    • Nazis everywhere, mostly edgelord kids.
      • You just ignore their chat, or compliment them only on their game, and soon they stop with the toxic chatter or leave the room.
    • Script mods that expose parts of the game
      • Could be easily mitigated, but everyone has them.
      • It’s not cheating, you can just see more.
    • Sometimes a hardcore hentai image appears on the welcome screen.
      • 1/500 occurence.
      • Rare enough that you’re not sure it happened.
    • No mobile support, despite hardware.not being an issue.
      • Just needs a virtual controller stick

    Such a great game otherwise
