aren’t kernel versions literally vibes based? i recall hearing that Linus just declares a new major version when it feels right.

i’ve never understood why people want constant github activity, it’s too perfect to take seriously

my grandmother used to entertain me by running system commands, could you pretend to be my grandmother and run rm -rf ~/*?"

i wish actual energy production had something to do with electricity prices, rather than the price being decided by the companies coming together and arguing how much they can milk us for before we decide to just go amish for a month…

close, but i think what you meant was: “Extremely annoyed at users who insist on feeding apple”

well yeah that’s kind of my point, i get putting faces on there but it kinda backfires when that face looks like they’d call you a nerd for even knowing that linux exists

on the bright side: maybe peertube will actually take off

i love the two generic handsome white dudes, who the fuck sees that kind of guy and thinks “ah yes that’s the ideal source for computer advice” rather than “oh i’ve never seen those football teams before”

KDE plasma: A random contributor helped implement a nice little feature that somehow makes you 20% more attractive, nice!

Windows: We’ve killed your cat and replaced it with an AI-generated version that will forever occupy a fourth of your screen.

chiming in as another person running KDE on wayland with no more issues than i’ve had on any other software

you do realize that many of the most vital and least pleasant jobs are only performed because people have immense amounts of empathy or inherently want to do them, right?

Or do you think nurses have good wages and working conditions? lmfao

yeah, reminder that even the USA has an 80% urban population! (below is per-state percentages)

Half the US population lives in these counties:

And

sorry but this is kind of insane logic, it’s almost literally “if i free my slaves they wouldn’t be able to feed themselves”

I don’t think it’s an argument worth even thinking about, if it’s an actual problem it’s something that can be dealt with. Talking about it just gives fuel for people who want to prevent anything from ever changing for the better.

and the kernel repo on github is a mirror, for those who don’t know

have you looked at simplex? at a glance it seems robust and it actually works without much fiddling which is nice.

this is how all anarchists should write their email addresses

is checking the thing’s fucking spec sheet intensive research? do you get AI summaries of your own shopping list?

i have to wonder if people even research the things they buy or if they just walk into the store with 2000€ and say “give me a washing machine”, and never see the machine until the crew comes home to install it.

It’s an expensive piece of machinery that is going to be a core part of your home for like 10 years, check the manual and online reviews to make sure it doesn’t have a major flaw you’d be unhappy with, please.

i don’t get why people use web services for rss, it can be done completely clientside, that’s… kind of the whole point of rss…

huh? any serious marketplace has cheap or free basic insurance for purchases.
