    We’ll update the 200 mb program.

    not pictured: the other 500mb of libraries and dependencies that tag along.

      Indeed. I literally never use the word “than”. Fuck grammar, “than” looks weird.

      I never say “than”, I say “then”, therefore it just seems right to spell it how I always say it.

        It’s not grammar it’s an entitlement different word. It would be like refusing to call a dog a dog because you think it sounds better to call it a cat.

        Edit - you know what, I’m leaving that auto correct in. Entitlement looks better here to me than entirely.

          I laterally never use the word “entirely”. Fuck grandma, “entirely” looks weird.

          I never say “entirely”, I say “entitlement”, therefore it just seems right to spell it how I always say it.

          If it was an actual formal writing I would use proper grammar but other then (oh man what do I do here) that I never really use than.

            Hilarious when people want to resort to “I WASN’T WRITING FORMALLY” in these situations. Just take the L and acknowledge it was a flub. Much less cringe that way.

            Lol it’s not grammar, you’ve used an entirely different word that just sounds kinda similar. You’re essentially saying the actual words used don’t matter in these two sentences because they sound similar:

            I like to wear t-shirts

            Eye lick two where tea-shits

        Spelling things how you say them can lead to people misunderstanding or causing unintended(?) pain.

          We write our language (swiss-german) like this 😂 everything is allowed and there are strangely very little misunderstandings. Only bad thing about is, that swiping keyboard rarely work with it.

            I do with English would switch to phonetic spelling, including the eventi of the speaker, but we’re never going to switch. At least the standardized spelling does have a very minor advantage in terms of disambiguation with homophones. But then we had to go and mess up read/read and lead/lead.

              Read/ret lead/let -> easy 😜 but how to write “do” I mean it is not a normal spoken “o” and not exactly a “u” like it is a “u” but without (yo)u Write phonetic is more easy in German, I think, or maybe only because it is my birth language 🤔

      Well, one part of it is that Flatpak pulls data over the network, and sometimes data sent over a network doesn’t arrive in the exact same shape as when it left the original system, which results in that same data being sent in multiple copies - until one manages to arrive correctly.

        Hence why Fedora Linux actually recently removed delta updates for DNF. Turns out it used more data in retries than just downloading a whole package again.

            I think they have moved from trying to fix it in DNF, to using the capabilities found in BTRFS for Copy on write. Can’t quite remember exactly.
