Nerd, truck driver, and kinda creeped that you’re reading this.

I'm sure they've diverged enough for it to be pretty significant compared to the Chromium browsers

bdonvr ,

Welp, off to macOS now. Sorry guys I can't be a part of this community anymore.

bdonvr ,

Popularize among his follower base and make it cringe to use Linux

bdonvr ,

Mint's a great OS.

I'm really just not an apt guy though, and Cinnamon has always been a little plain for me.

Yes even Lincoln. He was brutal with the indigenous Americans just like all his contemporary genociders.

And even on the subject of slavery, he was basically forced into it. He also really hampered radical reconstruction which sought to actually change the power structure, take land from slaveholders and give it to the freedmen... Went way easy on former Confederates and let them slip into (subdued, but still significant) control. He wasn't as bad as his successor in that regard but he's no role model. Read "Black Reconstruction in America" by W.E.B. DuBois if you're interested.

He was always ambivalent about abolition. Not a fan of slavery, sure. Maybe. But he made it clear over and over and over again that he would much rather keep the country together than free any slaves if he could.

He also MANY times said he wouldn't even know where freed slaves fit into American society, proposing they be shipped off to some island to colonize so he wouldn't have to deal with them.

It was only at the insistence of his generals that it was a military necessity or they'd lose the war that he freed some of the slaves.

bdonvr ,

What the fuck are you on about

bdonvr ,

Check out PurelyMail - only charges by emails sent/received and storage. No limits on accounts or domains connected.

bdonvr ,

My ass with it on watchtower update lmao

bdonvr , (edited )

Ehhhhhh I wouldn't say brand new hardware. A lot of times Linux still needs a few months to properly support a new Gen of graphics cards or processors

Though it generally at least works which is a huge improvement over back in the day

bdonvr ,

Nvidia has always been a pain and that's really Nvidia's fault not Linux's

bdonvr ,

Not quite, this could be exploited by telecom providers when using mobile data. Also using a VPN for networks you DON'T control is one of the more popular uses of the things

bdonvr , (edited )

Yeah sometimes animals need to be put down out in the country.

But she just completely failed to raise that dog to do what she wanted, completely impatient, then decided the only recourse was to shoot it.

Then just decided while she was out killin' to shoot a "mean" goat too? Like if she hadn't decided to kill the dog she wouldn't have killed the goat? Bloodlust is what it sounds like.

bdonvr ,

Obstruct? No. Not even think about? Yes.

bdonvr ,

That looks pretty cool. I think it's just that everyone kinda picked their setup at the start and nobody wants to mess with it anymore lol.

I've got traefik setup so that I just add a few lines to a docker compose file and I'll automatically have a new service running under a new subdomain, with SSL certificate and all. Never have to think about it.

bdonvr ,

I just have a wildcard subdomain record. (CNAME: *.mydomain.com)

Then the traffic gets sent to Traefik which checks the request for what subdomain it is asking for and routes it accordingly.

It's just two label lines in each docker compose with whatever subdomain I want to use and a minute or two later it's gotten the certificates and it's available.

bdonvr ,

No that still uses traditional search engines in the background

bdonvr ,

16:20 just doesn't have the same effect though

bdonvr ,

And it will only break like a few times a year

bdonvr ,

Don't move to Arch. It's a great distro don't get me wrong but it's not for someone who isn't quite familiar with Linux. You need to choose every package on your system and configure it all.... Give yourself some time to know Linux.

Ubuntu is a great distro with a great out of box experience. The company behind it though has been making some choices I don't much care for so I've moved away from them. (They created a pretty crappy new packaging system, then started making the old, reliable packaging system use the new one without user consent)

OpenSuSe Tumbleweed is a great option. It has sane defaults, and nice versions of KDE and GNOME (two popular types of desktop environments, I'd recommend KDE if you're new to Linux - it's closer to the desktop philosophy you're used to. GNOME is great too but it's very opinionated and non-traditional, not for everyone.) It's also a "rolling release" distro, which means there's no big releases it just gets updated over time and provides you with very up to date packages. It's known to be quite stable which is unusual for a rolling-release distro (like Arch, for example).

Fedora is also a great choice - just follow a guide on how to get some media codecs on it (Fedora is big on not including software that isn't 100% open, but it's easy to add the few things you'll need). But it provides a great package manager, great KDE and GNOME versions, and all around very sane and stable. This is a traditional release distro with new versions every 6 months. You'll still get security and minor software updates between releases.

Whatever you choose, I think you'd be very surprised at what you CAN play under Linux with no problem. Outside of a few games (mostly due to anti-cheat which unfortunately rules out some - but not all - of the more popular multiplayer competitive games) there's really not much that doesn't run on Linux already nowadays.

bdonvr ,

I hope you learned your lesson. LLMs are neat but they're not intelligent.

bdonvr ,

Lmao they already do that. That's not new. They've been snooping on your signals for a while. My parent's TV sometimes shows a pop-up after watching certain things on antenna/satellite

bdonvr ,

Walmart has largely the same

they just want your dues

you lose the right to speak on your own behalf

bdonvr ,

Yeah but you can pre-send them. Send 52 in one day and you're good for a year

bdonvr ,

Videos

bdonvr ,

We gotta get in there and disconnect the antennas

But I've heard of a few models that don't function at all until connected.... yikes

bdonvr ,

iirc that was in Canada but I don't see why the argument wouldn't also be valid here

bdonvr ,

message misunderstood, penis stuck in Linux user

Uhhh I.... I'm a Linux user 😳😳😅😫

bdonvr ,

China bans Intel and AMD from government machines, the US blocked Huawei from the entirety of the US.

bdonvr ,

Eh they said someone needs to. (But yeah, I wouldn't personally recommend it.)

bdonvr ,

Is there even an underground subway in Texas? Asking as someone who used to live there.

bdonvr OP ,

Don't auto-update Immich, always check the release noted before upgrading for things that say "Breaking changes". They're usually highlighted and tell you what you need to change.

bdonvr ,

I signed the fedipact yet mine isn't listed there, at least it says "blocked".

bdonvr ,

You absolutely, 100000% should. Just be careful, keep it semi-anonymous. I say this as someone who has been fired for talking about their employer online lmao.

bdonvr ,

The only time I've regretted this is when I first made hummus

That's when I amended the rule to only apply to COOKED garlic, not raw.

bdonvr ,

And I have to go to the store and get a fuckton of the third grade and then they will be a little more shortform than that it is not a good thing to do with the first time I have to do it for the first time I have to go by the US and get it done and then I have to wait to get to the europeans out of the third grade of the third grade and then I have to wait to see what it is not a good thing to do it for me to do it for me to do it for me to do it for me to do it

bdonvr ,

Call me when they hit the FOV limit too

bdonvr ,

When you've got decent Internet and storage is cheap....

bdonvr ,

Quick question can you suggest some lotto numbers thx

bdonvr ,

Pluto is only about 4.5 light hours away on average

bdonvr ,

So plus $5 per person per month over 2 people. Not a deal breaker but just try and always have an unlocked phone so you can jump anytime and not get locked into BS
