What’s getting old is continuously asking for a Linux Drive client. I will keep on whining about it, probably until the end of my subscription.
So it is not sarcasm. As I, too, am getting old I just tend to repeat myself. A lot.
I have too many toothbrushes

Mandatory “I want a Drive Client for Linux” comment. Why should I care about features I won’t be able to access out of a cumbersome web app without even a search tool?
Also, why should I since I won’t be renewing anyway.

…sorry… work was crazy
Aw crap, completely forgot, worked another part of the building all day didn’t ever got near the exhibition rooms.
Better luck tomorrow I hope, sorry.
It does not, I know it because I have started them multiple times.
We use them as dumb players with an USB drive inserted, playing video on a loop all day long.
I’ll fetch you the ref tomorrow.
We just got 3 LG tv’s at work for an art exhibition. There’s no network available here (it’s a Napoleonic Fortress lol), and while they ask for it, dismissing all accounts/updates/online services is straightforward. You can delete all pre-installed apps (disney, netflix whatever) but LGtv and amazon. I can dig the model number tomorrow if you want.
OTOH I haven’t owned a tv since 2001.
Apple supposedly makes good hardware, and my ‘23 mbp in 14’ has excellent battery, great trackpad, very good sound and a beast of a screen. Now I don’t like whatever material these machines are made of, they are downright unpleasant to grab or touch, and the keyboard is abismal shit. I hate it, I am seriously not using it as much as I could not because Asahi, or Fedora, or bugs, or the availability of certain software for Arm64, but because of that shit keyboard. Asahi runs great, the full Pipewire sound stack developed for it is a pleasure to work on. Switch monitoring every which way, plug Firefox into Ardour and rip youtube, it all works, period.
To me M2 with 16g of ram is about on par with an intel i12 in everyday life. Sure it will win on rendering movies or some specific stuff, but day-to-day it’s like my friend’ Carbon X1 on Mint really.
Depends on the machine… Arch, Debian and …Asahi! (Actually Fedora)
Birds. These jerks stared 4am this morning, and their way of announcing the bird-world (and the whole planet around) their morning urge to fuck RIGHT NOW and get fucked ASAP is annoying me seriously.
A lovely, sunny morning indeed. I want to barbecue these Priapic Jerks. Or make a Quetzalcoatl carnival costume of their skin or something.
Don’t ask me what I do not look forward to.
My reaction when reading the post’s title: nothing.
I am not tired.
I see I sideload of Gentleman Agreement with the hardware vendors here:
Everyone wins. Well, the usual suspects win as usual. The environment and the customer can go kiss Mr Gates and Mr Dell’s asses.
You can also ask it when is the cutoff date of their database - there is a gentleman’s agreement between providers not to have ai involved in news / current politics in it’s public chats.
I tried them on a topic I’m pretty proficient on, (a spaghetti recipe lol) and the answer was the most bland imaginable.
The way it is setup by DDG, the restrictions and blandness, shallowness of the replies give me peace of.mind when a ‘natural language’ query is the easiest one. And Claude wouldn’t give me the DOB of that queen because it is Personal Info!
DDG has it’s non-track version online since a bit now. Use the !ai bang to get to it
Also you have the choice of Claude insted of ChatGPT, and your queries aren’t harvested for further ai training
In any case, it’s a completely different tab, it’s not mingled in general search results
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Ponyos, is in fact, GNU/Ponyos, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Ponyos. Ponyos is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, that version of GNU which quite nobody uses today is called Ponyos, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Ponyos, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Ponyos is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Ponyos is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Ponyos added, or GNU/Ponyos.
That’s why I mentioned “huge private healthcare network”: the employer does the Work Visa authorisation paperwork for you.
Check out Switzerland. Huge private healthcare network, expensive country but the salary is high too. Excellent public transport, good social protection… And magnificent landscapes, smack in the middle of Europe you have access to everywhere. You’ll have to learn French or German tho. It can be a bit quiet, but very very safe. Traditional food is meh, especially if you’re not a fan of melted cheese by the bucket.
