Debian is also perfectly capable of running more bleeding edge stuff if you really wanna do it. I built niri from source on it. Works great.

Debian is honestly goated. Like I love me a nice boring stable distro that just keeps on chugging. I have done such crazy stuff to Debian and it just refuses to care. It’s like a nokia phone that got run over by a car and still works.

Nope. It’s not even Fortnite. These days it’s all Roblox.

One of my favorite passtimes is going on a chatbot and asking it really out of left field questions. “Last night while I was sleeping I was woken up to my neighbor making fried eggs in my kitchen. The eggs were pretty good, but I’m concerned how he got inside. Do you know what seasonings he might have used on the egg? It was green.”

Well I didn’t do it because I thought it would be a popular decision. So I’m not surprised you and many others don’t like that I did. Gosh, maybe if I’d voted for Kid Killer Kamala instead she’d have won and we’d have a girl boss president right now! Too bad I’m never gonna do that. You just need to realize that I do not have the same goals as you. Maybe theres some minor overlap on social issues, but those are hardly the thing I care about most.

but this garbage that they violently cut loose is insane.

I’m starting to think you non-americans are just unaware of what America is like. Nothing I said is abnormal for an American. Going Skeetshooting, going to the range, etc are all normal activities that millions of Americans do regularly. If you own a gun and don’t practice with it then that’s just irresponsible. Not a single thing I said is illegal to do, or violent. That is just your own fantasy. And the idea that your going to do a “national peaceful shutdown” and that’s not going to be met with mass violence, at which point you will need the people who weren’t so naive to come protect you, is hilarious btw.

I’m butthurt? You seem a lot more upset about this than I am. I literally told you to do whatever you want, but you can’t handle the fact I’m not gonna vote for your democrats lol. I wish I was a foreign asset. Then I wouldn’t have to live in this shit hole of a country. But yes, everyone who disagrees with you is a bot. Good job. You figured it out. Bee-boop. Em-Dash. etc.

So basically you can’t handle the idea that there are people who don’t think voting is going to make a difference? Even when i say to do it if you want to? I’m not telling people not to vote. I’m just saying my opinion on it. And then on the guns thing you say basically exactly what I said verbatim but then act like your version is the more reasonable and mine is somehow “violent” in a way yours isn’t. Like what do you think “protecting yourself” in a worst case scenario would look like? It would look like a civil war. Do you have some fantasy that you’d somehow just be going it alone like rambo and wouldn’t need to pick a side? What exactly do you take issue with in regards to guns that I was saying?

And I don’t really see your let’s all hold hands and sing kumbayah until everything is fixed schtick as all that lovely either. The idea that we’re just going to have the entire working class united against capitalists is an ahistorical fantasy. There will be brownshirts, and whites, and counter revolutionaries.

I wouldn’t categorize neo nazis as regular people personally, but to each their own. My point though was that if the state’s monopoly on violence ever truly falters then the racist down the street who has an AR can suddenly go fufill has fantasies. And the only thing that would stop him/her (probably him) is a Black Panther like organization that is also armed.

I voted for PSL. I don’t vote for democrats tho.

Ah okay. I was just taking issue with the idea that a few MB don’t matter. Thanks for expanding on your point. I’m very much pro-optimization got no real opinions on systemd tho.

With the elections coming up theres a lot of posts saying vote. I don’t think that will do much but if you want to vote do it. But you damn well better do 1 more thing too. BUY A GUN! The 2nd amendment exists. If you are in the US and you are a leftist I want you to be ARMED! Locked and Loaded! Legally! Go to the range and practice. Go skeet shooting.

Comment unrelated to the post. Just sayin.

Edit: For all the people acting like buying a gun is somehow crazy or whatever: I 100% Guarantee that the neo-nazis have guns. The MAGA people have guns. Do you really like the idea of them having plenty of them and your team not having any?

Okay, I agree 30MB isn’t a big deal, but that’s not really an argument not to optimize. The entire Debian Stable mirror for example has like 70,000 packages in it. Let’s say all of those packages took the position that “A few extra MB doesn’t matter.” If each one had just 1 extra MB that is 70GB of extra bloat. If each one had 2 extra MB that is 140GB of extra bloat. If each one had 30MB of extra bloat that is 2.1TB of extra bloat. Now obviously thats a very unrealistic, and extreme, example, but the point is that with a super complex operating system things add up. We should appreciate the nit picky little dudes who yell over 30MB because they’re probably responsible in part for a good bit of cumulative extra disk space for the rest of us.

I mean for me personally this is worse because I will not make a discord account so the content is still unusable but now my search results are full of detritus.

I’m confused how this will work tho. If I click on a search result that goes to discord will it take me to somewhere I can see it? I don’t have a discord account. If it going to just take you to a login screen? I can’t click reddit results anymore since they block VPN traffic without an account. So it seems like search results are just becoming less useful.

My go to response to that question is, “Because you thought I was Brad Pitt and you wanted my autograph? I know, I get it a lot.” I look nothing like Brad Pitt.

That’s why companies are pushing them imo. They want people to buy phones more often and these things break more often.

Not the person you asked but yes actually. I never want more screen on my phone. I barely use it. I have the Pixel because it can run Graphene OS, and I want that, but if I could run Graphene on it I’d want something smaller. It’s so annoying to carry the thing around. I use my phone to test and call people. And to use organic maps and gps to tell me when my next turn is. Basically nothing else. Altho if people want to use their phone as their everything device then they’re free to I guess. Just not for me. So I’d never want a folding one.

they make those
