@solarmerps it was part of an electrical engineering/physics dual major degree, there was one mandatory programming course and several you could take as an option if you wanted to specialize into computer engineering

we think computers are too cursed for us to study (programming is hard) so we just did the one mandatory one
-F

@solarmerps yeah we're not too familiar with what's normal, our classes focused on hardware, not software
-F

@solarmerps the one programming class we took, we were required to use linux for it. is that that weird?

@mawr @owashii@plush.city Keysight's gone completely off the deep end with it too, they charge a yearly fee (which is several thousand dollars) just to have access ot any sort of tech support or repair services (the latter of which also cost extra money) for their hardware (which itself costs tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars)
-F

@mawr @owashii@plush.city yeah it's a good business practice, to only charge the big corporate users for it

it's bad when they do it as a monopoly thing, or as a way to exclude people because your software is obtuse and only the people who pay ridiculous prices for it get support
-F

@mawr @owashii@plush.city Autodesk seems to do a lot of the same stuff as Adobe, too. I don't think they ever pursue private piracy either, and they provide their stuff for free to students

@ceralor @owashii@plush.city while it may look like a pawabola, it's actually closer to a cat-enary curve

@owashii@plush.city Eh, Steve!

@Cabtcougalope Liszt's hungarian rhapsodies are always nice to listen to if you're in the mood for piano stuff.
-F

@rey @Draekos i would be impressed if anyone figured out a way to make a lewd magnetron. And interested to see it, if only out of curiosity
-F

@vivi How are you doing these anyway? Do you use a soldering iron to burn the wood? We've heard of people doing that.
-F

@vivi ooh what about the elemental symbols from AtLA?
-F

@vivi these are really cool that we've seen so far!!

@iBolt07 i feel like fetish comes off as a bit more inherently sex-oriented? though neither needs to be a sex thing
-F
