fuck the media. fuck the markets.
North Carolina is gerrymandered to hell.
We’re still new to the game, and we have no idea what we’re looking for.
There’s a new accessibility framework being started by a Gnome developer very recently.
Which means, best case scenario where it’s perfect and other desktops buy in, it will roll out to traditional desktop users in half a decade at the earliest.
No feelings either way, I started using X since the last millennium and have been on Wayland without problems (Gnome or sway, never anything more than integrated graphics card) for about four years now.
But I really wish there was an fvwm for Wayland. And Window Maker.
This gives Kryten vibes.
I’m challenging myself to use it as my only laptop browser for a month. It’s not bad but it seems slow compared to Firefox.
I last used Epiphany probably 20 years ago. Galeon for a bit before that. The situation back then was reversed; those browsers were much faster than the full Mozilla Suite with which they shared a rendering engine.
Koyaanisqatsi
Oh. So the problem is the people who have been in the workforce all of two fucking years and who are likely so low ranking that they are nowhere in any position to make a difference even with their own work schedule.
Not the people who have been in charge for decades, dragging their feet, misleading, buying/funding shit candidates, gaming the market, and who still openly deny climate change.
Fuck outta here.
Probably still Firefox. The web is shit.
There was a KDE theme recently that was deleting home folders
Give personhood rights to nature
Not corporations.
I used all of these at some point.
I used to prefer ThinkPads but I’ve moved on. I have had lots of reliability problems with them over the past few years. I had keys fall off a newer ThinkPad keyboard (which wasn’t user replaceable) and another new ThinkPad just die under warranty and the repair person damaged it further when trying to fix it.
I am on System76 now and have no issues and they do good things like right to repair and Coreboot.
If I had to choose a single laptop for everything, it would be the Toughbook 40. I have one for work and it has a 1200 nit display. It runs Ubuntu LTS perfectly. It costs several thousand dollars new but has swapable components, multiple batteries, and part availability is measured in decades. You can get an older CF-31 or CF-54 for a few hundred dollars and still find new components for it.
Swastikas painted on our house when I was a kid.
Kids yell in the public park tell me that I have to go back. When pushing my son in a stroller.
Getting told that I will have to pay for stuff when I pick it up at the store at Dollywood, like I don’t know how a merchant economy works.
Had to fight a lot in the feral public school system growing up. All the ching chong jokes.
Being referred to as “chowie” by a prominent basketball scout while in high school.
Being asked if I eat dogs by my boss. In 2023.
Being asked if my mom was an Asian whore by another boss. In 2018.
Being told that I’m not Asian and that some white girl looks more Asian than me and how can I even claim to be Asian when I don’t have squinty eyes?
Jokes about my ancestry when they can’t place me.
Being pulled into secondary every time I travel through Paris CDG because I always get flagged. And one Securitas security officer telling me that Americans will never accept me as American when I finished.
Dating scene as a teen, everything going well, then meeting the parents, then being told I wasn’t allowed to date their white daughter anymore. Like clockwork. Which is fine, they can’t handle the spice in my food anyway.
The last computer I built for my dad before he passed ran Xubuntu LTS exclusively for about half a decade. No problems. He did updates himself.
Endeavour sway edition was great at this.
Mess with the best, Die like the rest.
Debian.
If you want to try something different, maybe LMDE.
He had nothing to gain from agreeing to this debate.
