Very neat, though it looks like you’re afraid of ascenders and decenders. your f’s look cut off at the top, your h’s looks a little like n’s, etc. Looks like you’re trying to stick to a rule from a different alphabet that everything is the same height; the Latin alphabet doesn’t work like that, or at least, it doesn’t in lowercase.

What was it, the G in GTK stands for GIMP, and the G in GIMP stands for GNU, and the G in GNU stands for GNU, and…

Once again I say, “Oh no!”

Juuuust out of college, perfectly in time for the housing bubble to burst and all the jobs evaporate.

It is my understanding that sh.itjust.works is hosted on hardware that is in The_Dude’s physical possession, so I think we could manage.

Japan?

You remember a few years ago when some random town in North Carolina made the national news because some Proud Boys shot out the substation because there was a drag show at a local downtown theater?

I’m from there.

What I learned in those four days without refrigeration or air conditioning is that substations aren’t bulletproof.

I always heard that quote attributed to Joseph Stalin, re the T-34 vs the German Panzer. I’m not one of the two worst men in history, so a pissing match between the worst man in history and the second worst man in history does not impress me, a better human than both. My name isn’t in a single social studies textbook printed anywhere on earth. Get on my level, noobs.

Oh no!

So we should just straight-up vandalize them? As much property damage as possible, forget the shotguns, bring bulldozers, gasoline and road flares?

…What forces defend these datacenters? Could a platoon of motivated civilians armed with pump action shotguns carry all the RAM out of one?

They get shot just for going to school. Or being brown.

I’ve barely ever used Discord, I’m not entirely sure I understand how it works, because individuals host their own servers? “Join my Discord server.” So, Discord as a business provides software and…user account brokerage? In terms of functionality, it does basically what an IM client/forum engine and Ventrilo did?

There is something about the slightly bad kerning of QT that gives KDE a vaguely Windows 95 feel. Especially when you start installing extensions that make no attempt to resemble each other; there is nothing I can do to make my CPU temperature meter and my system clock look like they belong on the same computer.

Gnome on the other hand feels like MacOS with meningitis. It’s designed to look nice, but not necessarily do anything.

Which is why it’s important to starve them for attention, and thus ad revenue, now.

By actively selecting these videos, watching them, sometimes multiple times through, going back to them to show them to me “You’ve got to see this video I saw” god hate fucking dammit, she’s driving revenue toward their uploaders, which is causing them to pave over the entire continent of North America with data centers that are destroying the concept of truth itself and murdering the environment.

It’s not that hard to spot; my mother will watch them sometimes. A parrot using complete sentences and witty turns of phrase about a cat trying to attack them? Yeah no. But how do you get a “I just want to sit under my blanket, eat soup and watch cute animal videos” boomer retiree to understand she’s destroying the world by paying attention to this?

what went with him? Is he in rehab or something?

I wonder if someone like Puppy Linux or Damn Small Linux could make it usable? I’ve seen both run usably on 1990s PC hardware.
