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 ~/*?"

anyone with a yard should be tilling the soil and planting stuff, it’s a nice hobby that gives you some fun things to eat, and if (well, kinda feels like when…) international trade goes to shit we’ll have people who can keep us fed.

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”

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

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.

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.

it’s perfectly fine at e2e encryption, especially if you’re not federating.

“Open IRC federation is basically never used anymore”

so you admit IRC isn’t federated, lmfao

to counter the “gotta appease normies”, think of how good firefox could be for accessibility if they put all the effort spent on llm integration and whatnot into making the useful AI features even better

like firefox is obviously not going to win in the normie department, but it could be so hilariously superior for disabled users that no one in that demographic even considers using chrome any more, and i think that would be quite effective at getting firefox onto public service computers.

it’s like having a book of knots and tying each of them once, it grows new synapses in your brain that makes all knot tying easier and gives you some intuition about what knot might be best and maybe you’ll remember enough to tie most of them without a reference, just with some trial and error.

“okay so i think it was a loop and then above and under and through… oh, no, that part has to be under and then above, that makes sense, there we go!”

i have very fond memories of sitting with windows computers and them just… ignoring the internet connection, the fuck does “unidentified network” mean? Do you fucking see the connection or not you silicon garbage heap?

mAIntAIn it?

just python and looking up every single thing i want the code to do “python print text”
“python get input”
“python loops”
“python iterate through list”

and this is why i’m such a diehard python shill, it doesn’t require you to write 5 billion lines of boilerplate code to print some fucking text, it’s very approachable.
