Buttons@programming.devto Gaming@beehaw.org•Valve must address swastikas and other hate on Steam, writes US senator in a letter to Gabe NewellEnglish10·5 months agoYou literally just need to go into the discussion boards for trending games or check out the curation pages for groups like “DEI watch.”
I just spent 10 minutes doing both of these things and didn’t see any questionable content.
I did see gamers saying things like “this game sucks”, but nothing worse.
At this point I think you should provide a link to an example.

If we don’t care about legal definitions, then how do we know you didn’t cause all this?

Buttons@programming.devOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I remove a git repo without resorting to `rm -rf` ?English116·11 months agoThat’s a good example. If I’m regularly running a command that is a single whitespace character away from disaster, that’s a problem.
Imagine a fighter aircraft that had an eject button on the side of the flight stick. The pilot complains “I’m afraid I might accidentally hit the eject button when I don’t need to”, but everyone responds “why would you push the eject button if you don’t want to eject?”, or “so your concern is that the eject button will cause you to eject…?” – That’s how I feel right now.
Buttons@programming.devOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I remove a git repo without resorting to `rm -rf` ?English36·11 months agoJust checked my command history and I’ve run 60,000 commands on this computer without problem (and I have other computers). I guess people have different ideas of what “comfortable” means, but I think I consider myself comfortable with the command line.
I have shot myself in the foot with
rm -rf
in the past though, and screwed up my computer so bad the easiest solution was to reinstall the OS from scratch. My important files are backed up, including most of my dotfiles, but being a bit too quick to type and run arm -rf
command has caused me needless hours of work in the past.I realized the main reason I have to use
rm -rf
is to remove git repos and so I thought I’d ask if anyone has a tip to avoid it. And I’ve found some good suggestions among the least upvoted comments.
Buttons@programming.devOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I remove a git repo without resorting to `rm -rf` ?English414·11 months agoThat’s a good suggestion for some, but I’m quite comfortable with the command line.
It’s not that I’m irrationally scared of
rm -rf
. I know what that command will do. If I slow down an pay attention it’s not as though I’m worried “I hope this doesn’t break my system”.What I really mean is I see myself becoming quite comfortable typing
rm -rf
and running it with little thought, I use it often to delete git repos, and my frequent use and level of comfort with this command doesn’t match the level of danger it brings.Just moving them to
/tmp
is a nice suggestion that can work on anywhere without special programs or scripts.
Buttons@programming.devOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I remove a git repo without resorting to `rm -rf` ?English143·11 months agoMore like, I’m afraid of the command doing more than I’m trying to do.
What I want to do is ignore prompts about write-protected files in the
.git
directory, what it does is ignore all prompts for all files.

How does one steal Funko Pop’s IP? Create an ugly figure with a giant head and no face? Is that so common that they need an AI system to watch for IP infringement?
If a company wanted to get into the figure business, maybe they could just make figures that look good, and thus avoid infringing Funko Pop’s style.
