Always a fan of running around in a darkened room with pulsing lights and electronic music, eating strange pills and then being chased by colorful ghosts.

I mean…my connection is so fast it takes like, what, a minute, maybe two to get an ISO? The Internet is my backup device. I can still get copies of Yggdrasil from the early 90s.

If you’re doing it for yourself, fine. If you’re writing for me, don’t waste my time by making me have to decipher your custom scribble that’s never consistent with anyone else’s, unlike normal print.

Fuck serif fonts. The point of writing is to communicate clearly. Not look pretty and fancy-pants IMO.

I hate cursive for the same reason. It’s elitist trash script.

But at the end of the day, there’s only one program in control of all the hardware. They’re all getting the kernel from the same place, the distros aren’t writing their own kernels except for a few tweaks here and there.

How does this happen? Do not most major desktop Linux distros more or less run almost the same kernel with the same driver modules? (Except in the case of Debian being several years behind the rest).

as a man, I ain’t rocking thigh-high socks

Is this because you actively choose to not wear them as a man, or because society will try to make you feel wrong for doing it?

If the latter, then fuck everyone else.

One major part of fire code in most areas I’ve ever worked in is that the door access control system must be tied into the fire alarm so an alarm event will kill power to any doors with maglocks. Every door also needs its own exit button to again directly cut power if the automatic motion detector fails to let anyone out. Let’s hope those were the things missed.

Problem is there same one that plagues most open source software. Who enforces or organizes the desktop theming standard that every desktop environment will use? You’re going to have to come up with a universally acceptable method. Are we going to use CSS? Or just some kind of config file? There are many different ways to do what you want, how do we choose one?

The oldest millennials are in their 40s. They’ve moved on to talking shit about zoomers. It’s kind of weird seeing everything repeat itself like that as I get older.

I was, when I was younger. I kind of don’t want to spend the rest of my life I have left tweaking some stupid theme that doesn’t matter in the long run. Whenever I reinstall, I pretty much just use it as is and probably only change the wallpaper and turn the theme to dark mode and that’s it.

I’m at the far end of the desktop tweaking inverted U curve and have achieved nirvana, with the new users at the beginning and you in the middle.

Who is?

My ex wife for one, who would like to play Steam games but is not experienced enough to build and fiddle with a gaming PC, much less Linux, and just wants a box she can just plug in and turn on without calling all the IT folks in her family.

Don’t forget about our nerd bias. Most people here have a different perspective than 95% of normies. Remember how clueless the average person is about the inner workings of modern tech.

One-handed locking my PC as I leave my desk with Windows-L.

This person above me literally thinks that people are willing to go through with making permanent changes to their bodies just to cheat at sports or be pervs in bathrooms or some shit and not to, you know, have their body match who they really are more closely.

I don’t get where the drive to do that comes from at that age. Knowing you most likely won’t exist to spend it in a few short years.

Anyway, lettuce celebrate this win.

“Brace” implies they are completely unprepared and fully expected her to serve 50 more years.

Edit: yeah called it

“I wish she would stay for 10 more years,” said one House Democrat from California.
