It’s cool, but buying produce from your neighbors is also cool. Strong communities thrive together

Honestly, I don’t care. I don’t even look at that stuff, I just type in the bar thing what I want. Mozilla has to fund the project somehow.

Ah, because whoever they kill is definitely an enemy. If they were already infallible why do they need AI?

There was a lot more I missed when I switched, can’t think of anything now. I was going to joke that I miss being 19. But eh, I’m doing better now than I was then.

It’s really annoying actually. Sometimes you’re asking something completely benign, and it’s likes sorry I’m an AI and I can’t do anything.

Example: I asked it what a commonplace book was. Apparently language models don’t have the capacity to help with that!

I know a few trans or nonbinary folks. They either go by he, she, or they. I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t. Then again I live in a weird progressive rural community.

But if someone asks me to refer to them a particular way, sure what not? It means more to them than it means to me.

Sabayon Linux. I’m not sure if it’s still releasing updates, the main website is dead. It was based on Gentoo and later funtoo, but had a package manager of precompiled binaries. You could still use emerge if you wanted to. Definitely a weird and interesting distro

Blend OS is trying to do the declarative nixos thing but with an arch base. That’s pretty cool.

ClearOS was Intel’s attempt at an immutable os. From what I remember it was really fast.

Edit: actually it clear Linux not clearOS. Edit: also clear Linux is stateless. I don’t know, there’s a lot about it I don’t understand

I think you can just be grateful to have or experience something. Like you can’t be grateful to anyone for a full moon, but you can be grateful that you saw it.

Comfort can be about how you look. I have some clothes that are super comfortable, but if I wore them out in public I would be arrested because I look like a drug dealer. Find something comfy in the way that it reflects how you want to be seen

I use Plex and jellyfin, honestly, plex only stays around because of plexamp. It’s just too good. I don’t like using streaming apps like Spotify or whatever because they’re not as good

I mean, looking like you know what you’re doing, looking confident doesn’t mean you have to dress plain.

Also I am sure gym bros will complement you on your body. Kind of like how as a straight man I only get compliments on my facial hair from other men. Look for validation from your friends not randos

I watched a video a little while ago , I think the only value winamp has is nostalgic and historical. If it was really open source maybe we could get a really good fork and that’s about it, I think. Maybe I’m missing the point, let me know I’m not very smart at this stuff.

The Alchemist, I had to read it for a community college class. It’s probably the most predictable book I’ve ever read, but not in an entertaining way. Just painfully boring.

I read Siddhartha for highschool a couple years before, I would say that the books are almost identical, except I liked Siddhartha more.

You want a book with similar themes but actually amazing? The wizard of Earthsea.

I know the books aren’t literally the same. But the vibes feel very similar. I want to say they have very similar structure, but my memory doesn’t work that great.

I don’t know about wild, but UNSONG has been a very weird trip. It’s like science fiction, except instead of science its Jewish kabbalah. There’s angels, demons, alt history American politics, religious references that are truly esoteric, and puns… lots and lots of puns.

Yeah, so? Name a Republican president who did a better job. Because I’ll take sleepy joe over George W. Bush any day.

Also we’re talking about politicians and presidents here. We don’t have kings here in the US, a president is only a piece of an administration. Even if Trump wins and they make president a more dictatorial role, he’ll still only be a puppet to other powerful people.

I’m genuinely not sure what people want out of politics? Like do you want some sort of god king to come down from their city on a hill and to fix everything to be perfectly moral? Politics is messy and full of compromise. It sucks, but in the grand scheme of things a president can only steer the trajectory of the country a little bit.

Just listened to it. Yeah I get it

Wildermyth is a weird game that comes up with really interesting procedurally generated stories as you play through the life of an adventurer.

I think it was around the time of the windows 10 beta, I was trying that out and also dual booting with Linux mint.

I remember being a little frustrated with getting games to work great on Linux, but even more frustrated just using Windows. So I thought “Linux makes me less mad, I’m just going to use that”

As a 40k fan, there are so many good ones (as comes as a surprise to no one). Some personal favorites of mine are:

• Anything from the 3rd war for Armageddon
• The battle of Hellsreach
• The invasion of Rin’s world
• Istvan V dropsite massacre
• And of course the fall of Cadia

Not fiction nor fantasy, and that I think makes it all the more deserving
