Not really, the prospect of getting my own computer at all brought immense excitement and i didn’t know what words like “operating system” and “software” even meant.

I can imagine it though since i got comfortable with using the terminal, a gui feels more and more like bloat.

My first pc had windows 95 and it was indeed vastly better then todays corporate shite

Jokes on you, being an adult white male still doesn’t exclude you from being attacked.

Its maybe halfway getting there but you also need to make sure you are not queer, not emphatic to others and above all rich.

Gonna have to elaborate on this because the European union has both good and bad people pulling strings.

If this is about chatcontrol. Scary as it is that the idea keeps coming back it has also always gotten shot down.

Electron is chrome based though and i hate how many things rely on it.

Hyperland is what sold me on Linux. Would nog have switched if it wasn’t for this project

Never looked back.

I would prefer to have it removed now but as an alternative you can just install games and stuff on it while windows still lives on it.

Theoretically you can boot proton games from both sides. I just have never needed to do so.

WHAT?!

Got any of em helper Scripts for proxmox to get gpu passtrough working please? 🥺

So all you have to do is for everyone to move to a better neighbourhood, problem solved.

Sarcasm aside, in my neighbourhood there where some attempts to get together. Then people started complaining about eachother. Now at most a neighbour may wave back when i wave at them.

This is correct from your perspective only.

Young people are still social but they do it differently, if you are no not online you wouldn’t know their is a social gathering nor would you be invited. Not from malace but because all information about any event only exists online.

The person you consider your best friend needs someone to talk to. All their friends are available but not you. You become hard to bond with because your not where everyone else is in digital space.

Many events even require smartphone, even boring restaurants sometimes do with a QR code to see the menu/order.

I hate that kind of stuff but since a few years it has become clear that not having a smartphone is basically a social disability.

Your initial comment did not make this clear. I thought you where serious.

Big agree on the have them understand before draconian rules. Though some stuff is just gonna be walled off on my home network.

In the original it also supposedly amounts to more grain then there is in the kingdom.

A king once summoned a wise man who had done him a great service and said, “Name your reward.” The wise man replied, “Your Majesty, I ask for a simple thing. Give me one percent Linux desktop market share for the first square of the chessboard, two percent for the second square, four percent for the third square, and so on, doubling the amount for each of the 64 squares.” The king, thinking this was a modest request, said, “Surely you jest! Such a small reward for such a great service? Ask for gold, land, or jewels instead.” But the wise man insisted, and the king agreed. The king ordered his treasurer to calculate the total. Starting with 1% for the first square, 2% for the second, 4% for the third, 8% for the fourth… by the time they reached the tenth square, they needed 512% of the desktop market. The treasurer, pale with realization, informed the king that by the 64th square, they would need more market share than could possibly exist in the entire universe of computing devices. The king then understood that what seemed like a humble request was actually impossible to fulfill, and he gained a new respect for the power of exponential growth.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I would make a toxic relationship joke but this shit is just not funny.

It became downright personal for me. Its about accessibility.

My brain works a certain non typical way which is challenging to live with at best.

Sudden advertisements hits me like a physical punch in my face.

The ui focus on everything new rather then a nice subscription view with filters meant i who does not watch daily would frequently miss new uploads from the channels i do like.

I felt like i was in a toxic relationship being pushed to watch on their terms while openly hating that i protect myself from ad-sault by using blockers.

I realize i did not need things to be this way and am smart enough to build and alternative.

Now i have a yt-dlp script downloaded the latest uploads from chosen channels straight to jellyfin and also a selfhosted invidious with custom tweaks for everything i dont want to spend storage space on.

Basicly i take 100% of what i liked and never have to visit the website directly again.

They are waging war on invidious, it breaks on occasion. Yt-dlp though, stable as a rock.

Unrelated but how do people feel about the ai images when used for something like this.

The font is very telling for being DallE

Traffic with complete misinformed expectations is generally undesirable. There have been reports of places getting lots of negative reviews because of this.

“Bloat” the less system there is (while still working as a modern system) the better. If i need something i can install it myself.
