Concordtinople sounds like a place you’d make up on the spot if you were trying to hide your identity.

UM ACKSHUALLY these would all have water in their systems due to the coolant in the engine.

Slave traders often make uncomfortably good money.

I’ve been everywhere from a piecemeal Arch setup with a minimal desktop all the way to a Mint pleb. I’ve pretty much settled on EndeavourOS. It’s really impressed me with its dummy simple setup and OOB experience. Not to mention very few issues getting games to run even with an nVidia card.

It’s the IPv6 of joinlemmy.com

Whole Foods is also the only Food distributor. Let’s hope you skipped some meals to save some of your rations for such an emergency. Saving rations is also punishable by death.

It’s not the installation I fail on. It’s that 3-4 months after installation, my installation is so bespoke that I don’t even know how to make a forum post on it anymore.

I did mention I can install it by hand, but I hardly gain any benefit by doing so other than clout. And I don’t give a hoot about clout.

Someone could write a book…

The Joys of Distro-Hopping

I tried running Bazzite for a few months, but just kept running into one weird issue after another. Went to Endeavor and they all went away overnight.

I’m technical enough that I can configure Arch from scratch, but simply can’t be bothered. I just need my computer to work. Every day.

I felt like when I was working with Arch, and I’m sure it’s operator error, it was like maintaining a starship with a dozen systems that could individually go wrong and I was responsible for all of them. Endeavor was fully setup with no weirdness in less than 30 minutes.

I don’t remember how long ago it was, but there was an interview where he said exactly this. AI is not a bad tool. It’s just that lots of people use it as the apply-to-everything hammer.

Nice. Glad to hear you still can’t get viruses.

I think this every time I see the format. He’s literally squinting in the shot with the glasses on!

For those that want the actual answer:

Honestly, this could be referring to most open-source projects. I’d imagine many of the popular ones were originally made to solve a problem for themselves and then everyone jumps onboard with that solution.

Linux itself also kinda fits here considering it was meant to just sort of be a small project in the beginning and I doubt Linus ever could have predicted what it became.

1 a day? I feel like a lot of people might not ever get to see it. You’d go a large portion of your life always hearing about it, seeing stories in the news, one of your friend’s relatives was squished by it. But then one day you’re minding your business on your way to work when it shows up and crushes the car in front of you.

Looks like you get to call off from work. You just witnessed The Hand. Go ahead and take a day to collect your senses.

Just roll up and open hackertyper.net in fullscreen. “This is going to be a bigger problem than I thought…”

People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you. You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity. Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head. You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.
