Enshitification continues.

Cuz 6.6.6 is coming 😈

Leaning on SuSE Tumbleweed for a set it and forget it without the Arch weirdness. Kubuntu for “I really just need an OS and don’t wanna play with it”. Or Linux Mint. Idk I lean more .deb based distros. I love apt.

Depends on desktop Environment honestly.

I’ve seen arch install and I wouldn’t wish that on anybody. All the “arch,btw” people are just bragging that they went with the hard mode install setup (probably cheated and used Endeavor lol).

XCOM did it!

And the rest are DNA coded to go hard/wet over these strongman sociopaths that they can’t help but want to please them and do their bidding . It’s fucking sick.

Disagree. The fact that he chose a cheap third party controller instead of sparing no expense and using something better tells me he probably cheaped out in other places too.

Apparently he did with the hull, using leftover material from NASA that was full of micro cracks.

As far as the controller, military uses Xbox controllers for quite a lot of stuff. I imagine those are hardened enough to not Stick Drift too unlike our shitty civilian ones. In fact just the fact that stick drift is a huge problem across the board with controllers made in the last decade I would definitely reconsider a gamepad solution unless it had some Hall Effect sticks at minimum. But I know this cuz I’m a gamer whereas to Mr. Billionaire, any controller is good just get the damn Great Value one off the shelf.

Also he used it wirelessly. Come on. I don’t wanna trust Bluetooth underwater.

Too many rookie mistakes just with the gamepad. When I saw that photo of him with it the day they went missing I knew they were dead as fuck.

The scale at my job that prints labels for price per pound stuff when it boots shows Linux boot stuff.

Once installed Linux on my iPod 5G. Honestly wasn’t worth it cuz it cut battery time in half and only added a couple extra codecs it could play. Doom was strange on the scroll wheel.

Yeah VS Code definitely if ya doing programming. I’m just editing config/ini files once in a while so N++ is just right for me.

Shit. Probably. I need to do more drugs.

Yo don’t downvote, Windows Services for Linux (WSL) is a thing and it works.

1. GIMP (Image editor)

2. putty (Secure shell/terminal emulator)

3. WinSCP (Secure FTP client)

4. QBittorrent (guess.)

5. 7zip (All in one compressed archive manager)

6. Firefox

7. Notepad++ (text editor with syntax highlights)

8. Handbrake (Video transcoder)

9. VLC (all in one video player)

These are my top must have installed. There are others but they’re situational

Let’s not forget the various console emulators that are open source as well. All the good ones are.

I have my Gmail since beta invites so over 20 years. I’m dying with that account it’s basically my Internet SSN at this point. It’s also my real name so it’s professional n shit. The idea of moving it would be a disaster.

Surprised noone has hacked Vizio’s yet. Shame.

Be nice to not have to emulate this great game in the future.

Oh it did.

When Ubuntu first came out Debian was so far behind it was a joke. Debian… woody? Was old as fuck still running a 2.2 kernel and even sid was behind.

Ubuntu basically lit a fire under their ass and got em to stay more up to date and has become an excellent distro, even stable isn’t that far behind anymore.

Also I had “so called normies” asking me about Ubuntu or talking about it in regular conversation whereas a year prior I’d have to explain what Linux was if I mentioned it. It was an exciting time where Linux was about to become mainstream it seems.

Either way I’m fine with Ubuntu (and steam deck) being the gateway drug to Linux. But I do agree they’ve fallen off since the mid 2010s. Debian is pretty easy to install and is just a better experience if you still wanna use APT and it seems everyone else does Ubuntu better like Mint or Pop.

I’m looking to build a new PC (for Baldurs Gate 3) and been heavily leaning on ditching Windows for Endeavour. Or OpenSuse or Rhino? Some easy to set up rolling release. Considering Arch based to sorta match my Steam Deck.

Glad to hear everyone raves about Endeavor.

What happened was, for the GOP, all their propaganda was made for the plebs. They knew it was all bullshit.

However after a generation you get a bunch of true believers whom were raised on Fox News and AM radio, and this is what happens.

Trump for example was never “in on” the propaganda, he was just a boring asshole that only watched Fox News and underage beauty pageants. So of course he’s a true believer. It’s also the reason why he resonates with his “base” because he literally talks like them on Facebook. Word for word sounded like some of my distant “kinfolk” and one of the reasons why I ditched Facebook. It’s literally “he’s like me frfr” except everything that matters ie rich, coastal elite.

The only way to get his cult to back off would be if he said he was a Democrat now.

Fair enough.
