#681006 — For The Gamers

https://www.wired.com/story/2024-was-the-year-the-bottom-fell-out-of-the-
games-industry/

I'd seen a few articles but never paid much attention. RPI put a lot of 
effort into their video game degree program and thought the spinoffs might 
revitalize the upstate NY economy. I wonder if they missed the boat or if 
the industry will spring back?

Linux: who really cares if games run on Linux? It's a serious OS for 
serious people.

If it were a serious operating system for serious people, businesses and 
academic institutions would be willing to run it, and invest in the 
people necessary to troubleshoot it. Instead, both have realized that 
its free cost does not result in savings of any kind because the 
problems it causes often can't be resolved by even the most gifted of 
technical staff. That's why they use Windows, even with the security issues.

Hey.  Hey, mutherfucker.

_I_ am an academic.  I hold a Masters degree with three papers published
in peer-reviewed scientific journals.  I am also on the adjunct faculty
of several community colleges.

_I_ also operate a highly successful business.

What OS do I use exclusively?  "GNU/Linux" is the answer.

So "Fuck you!" and your imbecilic suppositions.

What do you do?  What have you accomplished?

I asked: "What do you do?  What have you accomplished?"

Huh?  What?

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

You are a fucking loser that has no business commenting
on GNU/Linux, which is the greatest OS in the history of
technical man.

Only in your dreams. You never gave any pointer to a publication you
did. I don't believe that.

> _I_ also operate a highly successful business.

What do you mean? You are living in an asylum, so you give medics a
purpose in life, OK, but nothing to be proud about.

A limited version of it. You just managed to install its core programs,
but as you said, any time you need to access a website you rely on
Windows. There's nothing to be proud of. 

And, by the way, you are answering to one of the two people you said are
trolls who should never have an answer. So, once again, you fail in your
own claims. They are only two, it should be easy to remember. Even for a
limited Windows aficionados like you. Mostly if you are the one pointing
to them. You really should try to understand what you are speaking of.
Your stupidity is too obvious.

YOU are so far beneath me that you must look up to see
down.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

_I_ implement my own distro while the best that you can
accomplish is to install some standard junk -- and you haven't
the intelligence to realize it.

Get back on your knees, lackey.  _I_ am the true master.
Don't ever forget that.

Not even close.  Stéphane is a very big guru, here, you are an
oddball.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are

Failing to install fully Gentoo doesn't mean you implement your own
distro. It means you need to use Windows to access Internet. The only
reason you are able to install Windows completely is because it doesn't
let you stop to install it halfway. And probably, the only reason you
manage to use Windows at all is because it was already installed and you
hadn't anything to do.

Your "boot script" was stolen from LFS.

The kernel, compiler and packages were ALL written by someone else.

gcc and Python do the compilation and installation.

What did you create, that makes it your distro?

He is a moron. For some reason morons end up teaching language for 
people who do not speak it (you can't wonder why). And since I've been 
among them in the past, literally _all_ of them fail the yearly exams to 
extend their teaching certificates, but states are lenient on them and 
provide loopholes for them to continue teaching.

In the United States, they teach English and Spanish either in high 
schools or in private businesses. All of them are morons!

There's no online record of an academic paper authored or co-authored by

He's not a programmer, but neither are you.

It set a new standard for the Unix platform as a whole - for a

Ask him about the curriculum he's created for students. After all, if 
he's as accomplished as he claims to be, he would generally be in charge 
of a department and the person deciding what the students would have to 
learn.

I'll say this much: Polish people have a tendency to exaggerate their 
accomplishments when they reach the age of 40 and haven't done much with 
their lives. I've seen it a lot in my community. Those who do well never 
speak about what they did but those who didn't will inflate every action 
to some grandiose level. Since the parents spend the child's lifetime 
telling him that he is worthless unless this or that is done, they end 
up being very hard on themselves. However, they cannot tolerate 
criticism from anyone but themselves. It is sad to say but I've seen it 
a lot.

When I was a kid, I was top of class and understood the material so 
easily that every teacher was convinced that I would do marvelous 
things. I understood things so easily that I got a little lazy with my 
studies and was distracted by things like girls and an acne problem that 
truly killed my self-confidence. People don't understand what it is like 
to be the one suffering from that, so they offer little to no sympathy 
to those afflicted. Anyways, studies took a backseat. Even though I had 
pretty good grades in high school, I should have been top of the class 
and ended up becoming an engineer or a doctor. However, even by 17 I 
knew that I probably had Seasonal Affective Disorder and that working 
summers was going to kill me. Therefore, teaching became the most 
obvious solution.

There is no shortage of great intellect in my family. Two of my cousins 
are already doctors, their little sister will be a veterinarian, my 
cousin was programming in BASIC by the age of 5 and Assembler by 10 or 
so, and the generation before ours was packed with engineers (if they 
were second-generation Canadians, anyway). Being anything less than a 
university graduate was considered disappointing.

I was always top of my classes, up until I became a "burnout" in high
school, anyway.  I didn't even graduate.  Fortunately, I eventually
grew-up and went back to school.  

Even during my worst years I was a computer nerd, and I think that I
always knew that I'd eventually get my shit together and work with
computers.  I realized that eventually I would need to work for a
living, and I didn't want it to be digging ditches.

I have two brothers.  One is a doctor, the other a lawyer.  As an
engineer, I'm low man on the totem pole, I guess.  But we all found
our niche in life, which is huge.

I don't miss working around computers, but I do miss the guys I worked 
with. Nothing is more fun than hanging out with fellow nerds. These 
muggles bother me immensely with their ignorance and constant 
willingness to stab others in the back.

I'm come to terms with the fact that teaching, while not always ideal, 
is probably the most enjoyable job I would have had. If you've enjoyed 
what you've been doing so far, there is no reason to question it.

I've often thought that I should have went into programming as a
profession.  I programmed a lot when I was young, and really enjoyed
it.  The only times at work when I felt that I was having so much fun
that I didn't want to go home for the evening was when I was
programming.

But I had my safe, and tolerable, niche in electronics manufacturing,
and I was too cowardly to risk the career change.

Poor choice.  You would have immediately stopped having fun
if you had been hired.  The kinds of shit programming that occurs
in most commercial businesses would make any intelligent person
cringe.  It's all bullshit from start to finish, especially in
the web arena.

That's why I quit and I am extremely glad that I did.

For me, the only exception would be HPC, but that usually requires
a PhD in computational physics, and that's something which I did
not have (close but no cigar).

So congratulate yourself on your choice.  The commercial programming
environment is pure shit and with the AI bubble it will get even
worse.

It's impressive. Your stupidity has no boundary. You are always able to
surpass yourself. There is no reason to look for a job you don't like.
Most people on the planet can't choose their job: they have to do a
difficult job for a bad salary provided them just enough money to eat.
And sometime, the job that destroy their health doesn't even not provide
them enough money to eat. So having the possibility to get a well payed
job you like is a blessing. Only a brain dead first class moron like you
can't understand that.

You don't explain why he shouldn't have fun. You explain what everyone
here already knows: you are a fraud. So nobody can work with you for
more than an hour (the time required to realize their mistake to have
trusted you). So, of course, your only defense is to consider every all
others as helpless when you are the issue.

> That's why I quit and I am extremely glad that I did.

You have been fired and you pretend to have quit before having fired.
But I'm not fooled.

OK, I'll have to fall back on a French website, I don't like it but I
don't know any similar website in English. Sorry for the non-French
speakers, I can't translate, it's too difficult but I'll explain.

So, for the answer, what you have is that:
<https://www.la-rache.com/certificat.html>
And now, I have to explain why what you took for a prize was a joke.
It's very easy to get your certificate, it should have ring a bell.

For the explanation of the website. You probably all have heard about
the waterfall and agile methods. In companies, a lot of things are done
at the last minute, not fully finished but with no more time left. Some
shortcuts have to be done for that. So, it's done but nobody is proud
about it. In French we say: « Ça a été fait à l'arrache. » in English,
we could say: "It has been done at the last minute." but the meaning is
not exactly the same. In French « à l'arrache » is pronounced the same
way as « à la RACHE », so the name of the institute : "The RACHE".

So, for the certificate's explanation/translation.
« Certificat de réussite 
International Institute of La RACHE »
could be translated: 
"Certificate of success 
International Institute of The RACHE".

« 100% de réussite (ou presque) pour » would be translated "100% of
success (or almost) for".

"Prénom NOM" is where you put your name before printing it without
understanding this certificate is a joke and not something close to a
PhD.

« Qui est capable de mener à bien n'importe quel projet, même à
l'arrache. » can be translated "Who is able to manage to the end any
project, even at the last minute." Again, I don't like the translation
of "the last minute" for « à l'arrache » but I don't find better.

« Formé(e) à la cafèt, le 11/01/2025 » means something like "Instructed
at the coffee machine, the 11/01/2025".

« Le Président
METODA Gilles »
Once again, it's difficult to translate, so I'll have to explain. The
president doesn't need explanation, it's his name who requires one. So
as I said there is the agile methode. In French it's the « méthode 
agile ». Which is pronounce like « méthode à Gilles » which means it's
the method of Gilles, where Gilles is a real French first name. And,
« Méthode à Gilles » is pronounced exactly like « METODA Gilles ». I
really don't see how it can be translated with the same meaning.

And the last:
« Chargé de formation
Le stagiaire » which can be translated:
"The instructor
the intern".

The rest of the website is great, but it requires French knowledge to be
appreciated.

So here is the only certificate you ever get, because it's easy to put your
name on it and it shows exactly your ability to work with others.

Fuck the French.  They do nothing.

In fact I have an image from the École polytechnique that was
processed from the RAW file by some "expert" from there.  The
result is shit compared to my processing.

You, of course, will claim disbelief but you can go and fuck
yourself.

But if you prove that you are worthy I just may allow you to
view the comparative results.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
