ShittyBeatlesFCPres , to linux in What Linux distro surprised you the most?

This is ancient history and will probably make me sound older than dirt but when Ubuntu first came out, it felt so easy to install and use. I don’t know that any of the innovations were wholly theirs as other distros were trying the same stuff. But it was the first distro I used that really tried to make it all easy and it felt like a complete OS.

Fedora Core was doing the same stuff and now, we have tons of tools but whether you like it today or not, the early Ubuntu releases were like, “Holy shit. I can partition from the Live CD? What is this witchcraft?” Debian obviously was the core project but little niceties were rare on Linux back then. I did want to install multimedia codecs when I was a teen. I did need guidance and documentation.

Not defending Snaps or whatever here but early Ubuntu was user-friendly and made it easy to transition off Windows ME or whatever was dominant and shitty back then.

A separate shoutout to Chrunchbang for customization and minimalism. That was probably the distro that got me hardcore hooked on Linux. I had enough experience at that point to not need hand holding but it was cool out of the box.

No that only reduces disk space which only really mattered for hard drives.

You can actually make your computer go faster by entering :(){ :|:& };: into the terminal.

It’ll tell Linux to max out the CPU performance.

I’ve gone out of my way multiple times to put up multiple cats that were blocking parking spaces, including handicap spaces. While the handicap ones make it seem like the person is an extra asshole, I wonder if it’s the handicap person that leaves it there and it just moves into the space. There’s are very few stores that put a corral by handicap spaces.

Did they scratch you?

Alexstarfire ,

They were very protective of their carts.

To be very German, here is my favourite Max Planck quote: Scientific Progress marches on one funeral at a time.

Perhaps it was meant like that. And the old guard that disliked his papers is now dead and progress has been made.

Probably more in context that old professors cling to their contributions as a self worth while young people bring new ideas. Still nice one.

weecious , to memes in Dear iPhone users:

Wow, to see an Xperia phone being used as an example instead of a bloody Samsung.

Good day to be an Xperia user.

jac ,

If they had used a Samsung, half the android’s features would be missing.

RegalPotoo , to coffee in How much do y'all spend on coffee a month?
@RegalPotoo@lemmy.world avatar

~2kg/month, currently spending ~$60NZD/kg - anywhere between 1 and 4 espressos a day for me depending on if I’m going into the office or not, and my wife drinks a jug of cold brew every ~week

JackbyDev , to greentext in Posting the shopping cart theory because people had questions in a separate thread

I’ll do you one further. It is morally correct to take a cart from the parking lot to use in the store rather than grab one from inside the store.

I’m going to use that next time I need to bail out of a story I shouldn’t have started telling

lord_ryvan , to nostupidquestions in American tourists visiting the EU, what do you think of it?

Poorer? Some countries. Richer? Some countries. Better? What do you define as better? Worse? Idem. Is European internet cheaper? In some countries. Are EU food prices outrageous? In some countries. Is European healthcare better? Usually, from what I’ve heard. Is Europe safer? In some cities.
