Of a high school of 600 people, they all know that one kid who is dating their AI, just like we knew that one kid who was emotionally attached to his anime body pillow.

It’s indeed the time. I found Cachy was a good pivot, similar feel but seems to work better overall. Manjaro is still based on Arch after all, technically.

It’s quite simple; we’re trying to find our lost comrades. I had a magical moment when not one, but two people who joined my group on an MMO were using CachyOS. It’s like meeting your triplets separated at birth.

You only find out if you bring it up, lol.

I teach, so trying to adjust old ppts for lecture got a little weird because it turned the bulletpoints into mailboxes, and equation formulas are done completely differently so libre just makes them uneditable (a picture?).

When things got wonky in lecture though I managed just fine. My students are much worse, they open shit in non-MS apps all the time (.notes for takehome exams, or like, keynote, whatever) and fuck up formatting all the time, often without even realizing it. (I do provide PDF alternatives at least). Explaining I use libre really easy in that case, lol.

Ironically, Huffman doesn’t seem to be in the Epstein files. This isn’t because he isn’t a pedophile-- he very likely is-- but he simply wasn’t important enough of a person for them to invite him or even talk about him.

Oh I love those themes, I also sometimes use the 98 one on Plasma and it makes people do a double take.

Meanwhile a surprising number of outlets are advertising %100, including corporate ghouls like iHeartRadio. Hopefully that trend continues as people get sick of slop pushed in marketing.

It’s not legally martial law, but I haven’t claimed anything he’s going is legal. Nor are all things legal okay-- tear gassing people is legal, somehow, but not ok.

But I’m in a city he sent ICE. On average it’s more a secret police operation than a military coup.

True. Maybe a guide that mentions the big names would suffice? I have a friend scared away with the choice paralysis.

The Linux part is a bit of an afterthought in that announcement but it’d be pretty cool if they’d just go all in. They admit they’re the main browser of most Linux distros after all, why not give a specific setup a shout-out? Most of the confusion in switching is in distro and interface, after all.

As much as I believe Trump should face literally any punishment over January 6th riots, the Korean ex-president ordered a martial law shutdown and involved the military. This is more akin to what Trump is going to do in 2026 and/or 2028 when he suspends elections over martial law.

Inciting a mob is still illegal, but it’s a bit harder to prove beyond a reasonable doubt than ordering your military to stop Congress from acting. Of course, I’m not counting on Congress to even hold him accountable for abusing martial law (he’s committed crimes magnitudes worse than Jan 6th since then without any repercussions), just that we haven’t seen the martial law version yet.

The immigration part isn’t new, but her economic stance… she has said Margret Thatcher is an inspiration. It’s just that bad. Her views on gender are also quite backwards, which is ironic given she’s the first female Japanese PM.

I was a little surprised that AI was actually not too off, or at least when it was, it was because it misunderstood the distro I used. I don’t think it’s a good idea to go beyond basics though, like installing random stuff from the AUR to fix something can go horribly wrong.

I’ve been using rEFInd for my dual boot and it shows a Tux, but that’s mostly cause I haven’t been tinkering with it. Now I’m tempted to use anime girl personifications of OSs instead, which would be really classy, I bet.

Let’s say hypothetically, a person like myself went full dictator in the US and seized hundreds of oil tankers across the world these in the name of fighting global warming. What would happen?

There’s lower hanging fruit like kidnapping billionaires and whatnot, but it’s a fun thought experiment if the left actually had someone the way the right pretends they do.

Well, no, they also condemn good guys. They’re just right in this case, lol

That’s what I figured and I appreciate the confirmation. Since I work in education it’s probably a “better safe than sorry” approach since the laws on student privacy are actually enforced, unlike in corporate. (Obviously it’s security theater, though, as web apps and Windows integration make emails and files easy to steal anyway).

Yup. Although I’ve become a fan of things like GIMP, you do need to learn a new software and depending on who you are, it might take a while. Lucky (?) for me, I was too poor to afford it for school and since it was for official assignments, I didn’t want to pirate.

That said, Microsoft integration is more a curse than a blessing at this point. Privacy and junk aside, it’s dumped hundreds of GB of files onto my tiny SSD C: since it kept changing settings and ignoring my preferences. That’s why Microsoft messing things up is converting people who even prefer integration, when there’s an option to anyway!

I’d say it worked. Bravo. Haha
