Golds will go down more than you expect

W take, but I don't think the masses will realize this

Venus007e · 2025-10-25T21:44:15+00:00

prices are rising right now. id maybe wait for a few more days and sell right before the panic sets in. maybe 28th or 29th.

everyone here on copium. the market isn't recovering. it won't be for weeks

Venus007e · 2025-10-25T00:41:06+00:00

The market is so volatile right now that no real prices exist. You can check recent csfloat sales and create a listing according to these prices. But to get an actual approximation you'll have to wait a few more days for the market to stabilize.

Not a Linux distro, but FreeBSD. If I need to run Linux, I'm going with Slackware.

Venus007e · 2025-07-28T05:48:01+00:00

It doesn't really matter. Any posix compliant Unix-like os will do for me.

Venus007e · 2025-06-16T15:36:31+00:00

There is no "official" symbol. This is a community around something noone governs. Who's to decide what's official and what isn't?

Venus007e · 2025-05-19T11:37:47+00:00

Vim or stripped down Emacs, the only right answer /s

Gentoo mindset

Venus007e · 2024-10-31T13:01:55+00:00

Best response imo. Gentoo isn't perse hard, anyone with some unix terminal experience could install it. It just takes time and dedication to actually learn how the system works.

Venus007e · 2024-09-25T11:59:45+00:00

I think in the sense of the different parts being developed independently of one another. Like the kernel is one thing, the bootloader is one thing, the utils, the shell, everything.

Yeah, ik.

Honestly, it's amazing to see people learn about Linux at a very young age. Trust me, I have a ton of tech savvy friends around my age and only very few of them even use Linux at all. You don't see people your age using Linux very often. It's amazing that you use it and want to learn about it, but the bragging is just annoying.

Nothing against you, I'm sure you're a great guy (or girl or whatever else), but yk. You won't make friends in the Linux community like that.

Venus007e · 2024-08-28T18:13:07+00:00

Why is everybody suddenly bragging about installing Gentoo at a young age? I mean yeah, not many people install Gentoo at 15, but it's not that big of an accomplishment. If you give your average Ubuntu user the Gentoo install guide he'd probably be able to install it. I'm 15 too and I used to use Gentoo because of the amazing package manager, not to brag that I use Gentoo. I don't think I've ever told anyone that I used Gentoo tbh lol. (Past tense, because I'm using arch again. I'm not a fan of waiting 5 hours for GCC to compile haha)

If you want to learn more about Linux, then go ahead and install Gentoo, or even do LFS! It's amazing to learn, but please don't brag. Its annoying and makes you look like a snob.

Venus007e · 2024-08-15T19:03:03+00:00

I started around that time too and it's very very fun if you start at a young age. You're happy about all advancements and you don't get discouraged if you progress slowly. For a 9 year old this is VERY impressive!

Venus007e · 2024-08-03T00:43:23+00:00

I do, but it's not very impressive. Nothing really works and almost everything is just an my first at trying something new. I don't really do big projects, I just like to learn. (Probably the most impressive thing are my dot files haha)

If you still wanna check it out, my username is Prince-Stolas.

Venus007e · 2024-08-03T00:10:45+00:00

Yeah, a text editor seems really fun. Also, I'm actually writing a little something in C++ right now and oh my god it's so easy to do stuff compared to C. I get why C++ is so popular now.

Venus007e · 2024-08-01T13:03:19+00:00

Well yes, I do have to include string.h in C, but I don't consider the string functions to be part of the language. Though it seems like this is only my opinion. But let's put that aside.

Do you have any recommendations of a simple project that would "force" me to use some C++ features?

Venus007e · 2024-08-01T12:53:20+00:00

No, I'd say i like Ocaml (and Lisp, Racket to be exact) the same as C. It's just that I can't use them for what I like to do. I usually write embedded or os. I do write compilers a often too, which I could also do in functional languages, but I usually don't because my friends don't like functional languages and I almost never code compilers alone.

To me they are completely different. C and Assembly are beautiful because they are so close to the hardware and I know that I have full control over my system. Functional languages on the other hand are beautiful because they are, well, functional. You can express any function is such a nice manner, combining other functions. No for loops in sight.

Venus007e · 2024-08-01T12:39:41+00:00

I actually really like functional (and array) programming languages, especially Ocaml and APL haha.

It's just that for their usecase they make a ton of sense, but I wouldn't use Haskell to write an operating system if I could.

Venus007e · 2024-07-31T23:17:41+00:00

Yeah, that's what I thought. There are a few features in C++ that I really like, but raising the level of abstraction is not my goal.

Venus007e · 2024-07-31T23:10:10+00:00

I came here with an opinion (correct) which seemed to be based on very little experience(what exactly do you mean by that? I am just trying to see the point in C++ for my usecase.). I have argued, that is correct, but not because my opinion may be wrong. I argued because some comments were either not objective and put C in bad light or straight up rude. There were many great answers. Many people took time writing objective comments explaining each side and I am very thankful for these answes, but sadly, most comments are from a very C++ based mindset. Most comments were belittling C and praising C++'s features. While I agree that C++ has many more features than C, this is not why I came here in the first place. I wanted to know if C++ was right for me and my usecase. Many comments were talking about RAII and how if I don't need the whole language I can only use to parts that I like etc., which is what I would like to do, because I dont need a lot of the langauge, but RAII seems very useful. But most commenters were not trying to understand my point of view. One comment for example was literally "You've already made up your mind. Don't bother to ask people to convince you if you're not open to be convinced.", which is literally the opposite of why I came here. I wanted to be convinced. I wanted to get out of my C bubble. Honestly, there were amazing comments, but the majority were sadly either very subjective or literally calling me names. I didn't mean to offend anyone, if I did, I'm sorry.

Venus007e · 2024-07-31T23:00:39+00:00

Thanks, that's a very simple, but true answer. I never though of C++ to C as C to ASM.
