I think you already answered your own question there. GenAI makes it really easy to flood a platform with loads of bullshit, and as a consequence make any point seem (at least somewhat) believable

Anyway here's wonderwall

Yes, Debian packages are old. Tell me again when your arch install breaks for the 4th time this week.

Name one place in the world where being straight is illegal.

You could possibly also make a shell script that does this automatically. I believe most flatpak ids follow a pattern such as com.github.user.package, for github projects for example. So you could loop through all installed flatpaks, extract the name, and then add the alias.

No, Metallica (st anger)

I hit the lights on these dark sets

Ik heb persoonlijk een beetje gemixte gevoelens bij de verkiezingsuitslag. Extreemrechts is niet zo heel groot (wel iets meer dan 60 zetels, niet alle extreemrechtse partijen zitten in de ID-fractie). Daarentegen is het wel gegroeid, hebben voornamelijk veel extreemrechtse kiezers niet gestemd (in het geval van Nederland iig), en is het dus zeker niet geweken.

Hostels zijn inderdaad beter geschikt als je nieuwe mensen wilt leren kennen, en dat zou ik ook aanraden als je alleen reist. Dat wil niet zeggen dat je niemand kan ontmoeten als je in een airbnb zit, maar het zal misschien wat meer moeite kosten. Uiteindelijk is het je eigen reis, en moet je zelf doen waar je je het fijnst bij voelt.

Oh, en veel sterkte met je tanden, klinkt niet fijn!

Oh damn, would not have expected that to work. The worst hack I ever used is when I helped a friend install Linux who didn't have any spare (working) USB drives around. He did have a spare SSD in his PC however, so I ended up flashing the ISO to that.

Nice

Why?

Given how everything seems to be someone's kink, I'm pretty sure that there's someone on this planet who gets turned on by disappointment

I believe they pay OEMs as long as they exclusively use Windows, or at least they get a sizable discount

You can also use any of the packagekit gui's such as gnome software or kde diskover

I like how the first point made is that the backdoor violates the Debian Free Software Guidelines, as if that's the main problem

What's BOFA? (Apart from BOFA deez nuts)

Tbh I don't

I still have a DVI monitor connected to my main pc, so it's not that much of a retro problem for me

Okay that actually really helps

Yeah, Facebook's one is really getting into uncanny valley territory. Especially those teeth...

Who would've thought?

Nah that's just adhd

Wikipedia:

Police brutality is the excessive and unwarranted use of force by law enforcement against an individual or a group. It is an extreme form of police misconduct and is a civil rights violation.

I think you meant to say that the police using force is not necessarily wrong, but that's absolutely not what brutality is.

That is not a Dutch flag, that is the flag of Luxembourg...

Wieso steht da nicht, das es "erlaubt" ist? (wie in den Niederlanden, "toegestaan") Wäre doch viel klarer?

Add to this that running Steam on Linux Mint is probably the most "turn-key" Linux gaming experience you'll probably get

Around late 2017 I think. I was a first year university student. I bought a new laptop with Windows 10 when I started uni, but Windows would break with just about every other update. Eventually I was fed up with it and I wanted to try an alternative OS, so I installed Linux Mint next to my Windows installation.

I quickly found myself using it more than Windows, especially since a lot of software I had to use for university was significantly easier to install on Linux (think LaTeX). Quickly, it got to the point where I only used Windows as a gaming OS.

About half a year into this "experiment", my Windows 10 decided to nuke itself, again. This time the network driver wasn't working, which is annoying af to fix, so I didn't for a long time. Also in 2018 gaming on Linux got a lot better, with Proton becoming a thing around that time. Even when I eventually got around to fixing my Windows installation, I found myself not really using it.

Eventually got into a distrohopping phase, used Fedora for quite a while, but right now I settled on Debian with Gnome as my DE. It's not the most "exciting" setup, but I found that to be a good thing actually, because it allows me to get the most work done.

Mentioning you're using NixOS is slowly becoming the new "I use arch btw", isn't it?

Discord is not usually opened, since I don' t use it regularly. So this is not it.

Yeah I doubt I will ever get another laptop with hybrid Nvidia/Intel again. Support for it has become a lot better over the years, though. I remember I used to have to log out and back in to switch between the two graphics cards.

Anyway, I found this on the Nvidia forums. The problem described is slightly different, but I think I will try this and just see if it happens ever again.

The only people who think gas stoves are superior are the ones who never tried an induction stove

I once had someone tell me abstract dreaming is linked to creativity. I think it had something to do with which side of your brain is dominant. I don't know if this is true.

I can hear this logo

This feels like Hertog Jan slander.

Also, that fucking site is asking for a phone number to register. Fuck that.

You can't fucking read comments on it without making an account. Fuck that.

As long as there is software that only runs on Windows, Windows won't die.
