100 fucking percent. I’m loving atomic distros more and more as I use them, despite having to work around limitations/recommendations against installing rpm packaged software.

Bazzite was actually the distro I chose when I bailed on windows earlier this year, and while I do have my complaints, it’s easily been the best desktop Linux experience I’ve had in multiple decades. I’ve tried a dozen or more times to go to Linux but my graphics card has always been the reason I went back. But between going green and using a distro that has both steam and my GPU drivers baked in, it’s been a fucking dream.

Like, I love tinkering, coding, and all that fun tech shit. But I also do this for a living, so I want my home system as set and forget as possible. I don’t mind doing troubleshooting on my servers and shit to make hosted services work, but something about having to troubleshoot my main rig just sends me over the edge.

You’d mostly be checking that tests still make sense and that they pass.

Nah, my experience is most of your time is finding out what parameter or function call they made up because its mathematically a good answer.

Surely there’s no way for Microsoft to vibe-fuck their OS.

Surely.

Surely.

a cover … Which people fold behind the page. Like a book.

Ho ho hold the fuck up

Windows 11 can run on 4GB

That ‘can’ does a hell of a lot of heavy lifting. But then again, it says Windows can run in 4GB, it doesn’t say anything about your apps.

Why not just tell me to go fuck myself and skip the unsatisfying foreplay?

Unfortunately Musk would probably have won.

Lol, I want some of what you’re smoking. Muskrat wouldn’t stand a chance.

Elmo may have height/weight on Zucc, but he’s actually been training instead of being out of his mind in ketamine or something.

Like, just take a look at actual pictures of them. Zucc has a six pack and Melon has a keg and then some. Weight gives you a slight edge, but that edge is worthless if you’re out of shape and don’t know what you’re doing. I hate Zucc, but he’d fucc Muscc up, and even he knows it. That’s why Musky chickened out.

I’m immune to any shame that the clanker throws at me, considering I’ve had to tell it how to follow basic conventions multiple times, and the fucker can’t even consistently provide accurate parameters to vendor functions with all of the documentation readily available.

Oh no, you’re giving me shit about a common mistake. Now let’s take a look at your suggestion to fix it includes a misnamed parameter and a function that doesn’t exist…

Vivaldi is by far the best browser out there

Maybe among the wheelchair bound browsers that don’t let you properly block ads.

Because corporations are only people when it comes to good things. If it’s a bad thing, corporate veil protects the people doing the crimes because they have (what no one who puts any thought to it would believe is) plausible deniability because they never told people to do illegal things, they just said they wanted something done and let their underlings figure it out.

I fear it won’t be long before people decide to an hero in a spectacular way against their local fascist strongholds for the same reasons you outline.

At some point, people are going to have nothing to lose and the desire to send a message to those in power.

I use it more than I would like for technical troubleshooting and research because holy fuck are search engines trash these days. I try to search ddg/bing/Google first, but goddamn if the fucking search engines don’t decide to go drinking and show me so much shit that’s only tangentially related (and the fucking search operators don’t work reliably for me - the number of times I quote something or add restrictions to the search and it’s just completely ignored) that I spend less time fact checking the AI than I do digging through pages of garbage.

I fucking hate the modern Internet

Not a fan of the trope of having to wait to see saint Peter before getting thrown into the pits?

Just because they’re a data center doesn’t mean they’re suddenly immune to the regulations and processes a utility has to go through to build a generator.

Wow, you can’t even apply to be smart hands? That’s nuts to me.

The people who want more power. Ie, the data center.

You want it? You bought it.

Paypigs

“Adolf Hitler bans Gothic font from Nazi publications for being too Jewish”

Man, I fucking hate how much history rhymes

Because their data centers are run by clowns, and going to the circus is an improvement

Me, watching my company pivot to their cloud infrastructure: haha, I’m in danger
