Do you mean the successor WebOS? Cause I thought that was pretty cool when I test-drove it in a mobile store.

some_guy ,

The only one of these that I know is Haiku (as an extension of BeOS). I was already a Mac user when Apple was flirting with purchasing Be, so I installed in on my PowerMac 9500 and took it for a test spin. I liked it, though I was too young and inexperienced (and this was pre-broadband) to really get a good feel for it. I think I switched back to MacOS within a day just because what else did I know to do with it.

For that run. 45700x total.

Mr Show had an awesome opening sketch regarding the popemobile back in the day. They were way ahead of their time.

The Washington Post said it had the Alito flag story 3 years ago and chose not to publish (apnews.com)

Nine days after The New York Times reported about the political symbolism of an upside-down American flag that flew at U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s home, the Washington Post acknowledged it had the same story more than three years ago and decided not to publish it....

For journalists, it raises a question: Should public officials’ families be held to the same standards as the officials themselves?

Ginny Thomas has a dissenting opinion on this question. Piece of shit trash. I hate these people.

some_guy ,

I mean, there’s so much more important things to fight about, like litter boxes in classrooms. The news is just woke.

If I have to say it, you’re bad at doing internet.

I’m hopeful but wary. Medical science keeps being the one thing left in this world that consistently makes me happy to be alive in modern times. This would be a great breakthrough.

My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

I have been daily driving Linux for over two years now and I have switched distros many times. So, when my friend bought a new laptop, I convinced him to install Linux Mint on it. I asked him if he wanted to dual boot, he said no because it would fill up all his storage. We installed Linux Mint. The other day, he wanted to play...

some_guy ,

Slap the bottoms of his bare feet with reeds until he complies. /s

If you want to persuade your friend down the road to give it another shot, try asking what things he’d like to do and see if you can configure everything in advance. It’s impossible to predict all future desires, but knocking out some of the bigger ones could help. Honestly, I’d be surprised if he tries again any time soon. Can’t blame him. We all have different levels of tolerance for drudgery vs wanting things to just work.

some_guy ,

The simps will be confounded by your use of vocabulary. Just imagine the ignoramuses and their drooling confusion. It almost makes me feel sorry for them.

This is sarcasm building upon the sarcasm of the previous post. I don’t give two fucks about this meme but I know people resent Discord as a substitute for forums. Those people are clearly Neanderthals, a species we now know to have had culture but certainly not computers.

some_guy ,

Sounds about right. The Israel Lobby is fucking strong.

some_guy ,

The Asahi team never fails to impress. You can support the project at their Patreon. You don’t need to care about Apple hardware to see the value in the work they’re doing getting ported over to ARM PCs. Who knows? You might be donating to the health of your preferred distro on a device you will own down the road.

some_guy ,

But think of the tax implications for her and the congratulatory slaps on the back. See? The system works.

some_guy ,

I’m sorry, but that just broke the meter on my cuteness radar. I’ll be petitioning your insurance for the repair.

some_guy ,

I’m sorry that this link is on FB, but that’s what came up on a web search. Mr Show was so ahead of its time.

I mean, when you’ve got the backing of the USA behind you, you can sorta get away with that.

some_guy ,

I remember when I was trying to break into the Linux sysadmin role. Every job required 3-5y professional experience. I’d had a homelab for a while and was reasonably experienced with a number of things, but there was absolutely no willingness to bring on a newbie and train them up. It was super frustrating. How will I ever get any experience if you won’t hire anyone without years of experience?

some_guy ,

Tip: you probably had it set on the Red Bull Extreme Sports BMX setting.

some_guy ,

I don’t know how much longer we’ll let this go on, but I sure wish Biden would grow a pair and admit that Israel('s government, but many of its talking heads, also) is a bunch of liars and murderers.

Oh, wait. The White House is color blind and didn’t recognize all the red lines that have been crossed because they all appeared to be shades of gray. Now it makes sense. No one is to blame. /s

some_guy ,

Stop reading my mind and posting three hours before I get to or I’ll resume wearing my tinfoil hat.

some_guy ,

I recognize the Sea Peoples. I have an article open on my phone with new research on them that I need to go back and read. I’m really good at opening links to things I want to read later and then letting them accumulate.

Kicked macOS to the Curb and Installed Asahi Fedora Gnome

Most of the switching posts are from frustrated windows users making the jump. I’m already a Linux user on my server (Ubuntu for now, going Debian at some point) and a 2014 iMac for tinkering/testing (KDE Neon), and a couple of raspberry pis (raspberry pi os headless) but our main household computer is an M1 Mac mini that my...

some_guy ,

The project has a Patreon page. I’d encourage anyone who’s interested to consider supporting their work. I’ve been a subscriber since the Patreon started and I don’t even use Asahi. I installed it once to kick the tires and it was very impressive, but I like the Apple ecosystem. I just also like choice.

some_guy ,

I’ve got some old machines lying around (Intel mini and Intel air). I tried to go Linux today on the air. Tried Rocky, then Fedora, then Mint Cinnamon, then Mint Xfce. Couldn’t get the trackpad and kbd working. Plugging in external devices worked, but that meant juggling a kbd and mouse with the flash drive installer (only two USB-C). Then I had to juggle them with a USB-C power cable when the battery faded.

I know there are steps to make it all work with Apple’s T2 chip, but it just wasn’t worth it to me. I have two docks that I could use, but they’re driving two displays and a bunch of peripherals on my main machine, a MacBook Pro. I don’t expect I’ll run Linux on a Mac laptop until I retire my M1 air and install Asahi. It was so seamless when I tested it out that the rest just feels like burning valuable time.

I’ll prolly still convert the old mini, since all that noise won’t apply. Just WiFi drivers and such, which is much easier with four usb ports and ethernet.

If I really wanted a dedicated full-time Linux laptop, I’d probably buy a Framework since I find their hardware interesting. But as it stands, this was more of a fun project that turned out not so fun. I’ll stick with R-Pi’s and hypervisor VMs for my Linux needs for anything serious. Just ordered a new NUC today to replace one that was getting long in the tooth.

some_guy ,

Sorry, wrong target. Sue the cops who didn’t act. Oh, wait. They’re basically untouchable. Well, I guess sue yourselves for having children in America. That’s about the only case you might win.

“You’re Trump’s worst mistake of 2016,” Quaglin told McFadden, who was nominated to the court by then-President Donald Trump in 2017.

Can’t even get his insults factually correct.

Quaglin complained about his jail conditions and pushed conspiracy theories about the Jan. 6 siege during his rambling remarks in the courtroom. He also took issue with labeling the Jan. 6 attack as an insurrection.

You see judge, I was actually an antifa agitator, not a right-wing shithead trying to interfere with an election certification. You don’t understand my case at all!

some_guy ,

They tried to give him a tv show. The premise was having people from opposite backgrounds swap lives. I watched one episode. It was shit.

He had one good (gimmicky) idea. The findings were shaky. It was still entertaining. Cancer is a son of a bitch.

some_guy ,

I was going to ask if he was related to Sexual Harassment Panda. But your comment was better.

some_guy ,

While I take your point, a quick search reveals that:

Giant pandas are not latrine-using animals – they urinate and defecate wherever they happen to be and whatever they happen to be doing at the moment.

So the litter boxes in schools wouldn’t help this dirtbag and the poor janitorial staff will be stuck cleaning his shit off the floors.

some_guy ,

Recently quit drinking. Went to hit my disposable (only because I only got high once every few months or I’d have bought a refillable vape) and it was dead. Went to a shop yesterday to replace it. Found the gummies that we’d bought last year while doing spring cleaning.

We have a lot planned for today (Saturday) including going into farmland where you can pay to pick fresh fruit plus running some errands. But I’m getting high tonight.

some_guy ,

My mother caught me high as fuck when I was ~16yo and asked me, “Have you been smoking the pot?”

The pot.

I laughed so hard it was impossible to lie that I wasn’t high.

some_guy ,

Grazie! (I had to look up how to spell it.)

some_guy ,

It means it’s allergy season (spring).

some_guy ,

Start a youtube channel. You’ll be raking in money via Patreon in no time. Try to team up with the raw-meat steroid shithead to increase viewership.

“Confronted with the evidence, Kramer admitted that he commissioned the call, but he insisted he only did it to prompt stricter regulations of AI deep fakes.”

I only broke into the bank vault to prove we need stronger bank vaults.

some_guy ,

Yeah, but there’s a difference between white-hat hacking (where you find an exploit, test it once to confirm its validity, and report it without abusing it) and actually modifying a bunch of records (the equivalent of what this would be). White-hatting tries to be minimally-destructive while proving the vulnerability.

some_guy ,

Look, the most important voices are the non-scholastic billionaire donors. Why would you care about the opinions of those engaged in pedagogy? This is a business, not a school!

some_guy ,

Silly human. You used earthling mathematics. On Mars (where Lonnie is from), physics works a different way. See? Lonnie is the genius all his sycophants say he is.

some_guy ,

Any settement that doesn’t penalize non-reactive cops is too little, imo.

some_guy ,

She even stored them upside down. Treacherous shithead.

You might need to have read other stuff to get this joke. It’s not my job to provide backstory.

some_guy ,

I hate to sound like a callous ass, but I don’t think the world lost a great mind. What a stupid way to go.

And, it’s not even like that video where the two kids who were like 10 and 12 years old (I’m approximating based on faulty memory) accidentally killed themselves playing with a gun. Your brain may still be developing into your early twenties, but at 17 you should know better by far.

some_guy ,

They vote for shit that won’t affect them that we have to clean up (or potentially die). I’m ok with them getting fucked back a little.

some_guy ,

We were there, too. At night next to a playground. Lotsa good but also lotsa boring memories there.

some_guy ,

Wow, what a huge fuckup. Thanks for the link.

some_guy ,

Today you earned a gold star. Good job!

some_guy ,

I could have deposited the minimum amount, but she probably sensed that if I was told that it had to be more, I might choose not to open the account after all.

some_guy ,

Interesting take. Noted.

some_guy ,

Why didn’t I think of that? This is a game changer!

anders , to memes

Data storage vs backup storage

@memes

some_guy ,

Just owning it says enough about one’s personality for me to pass judgement. Same as people who wear camo, people who open-carry, and people who have a Trump sticker on their car.

some_guy ,

Ahh. Poor guy.
