I actually do not use it, not out of any kind of moral stance but it just runs slow for me.

That is extremely cool!

That’s actually very interesting, i would not have expected that.

Aww hell yeah! i’ve been waiting for this one. Once it’s been out a few days i intend to upgrade my main rig to it.

Because AI detectors suck and are the modern day equivalent of dowsing rods?

The sad thing is, they probably did get a bonus, then set about how to further monetize it

yeah it’s absolutely ridiculous. Whoever decided that the start menu, of all things, needed to be encrusted with garbage should have been fired on the spot.

I got tired of windows pretending it knew better than me what i wanted, whether that was updates or security scans or fuck knows what else.

The final straw was when they shitted up the start menu with garbage and tried to shove their app store down my throat. At that point i was done.

XBox 360 wired controller.

I remember the first time i saw the Contra switch from side-scrolling to “first person” and being totally blown away by it.

Yeah i literally just run whatever the default in Linux Mint is. It’s got everything where i expect it to be and has no friction, and that’s good enough for me.

One thing i know for sure, there ain’t no predicting the future with something like this. We’ll not know where we’ll end up until we are there.

I hit the sub a few hours ago to see what’s going on there, and man it is just pure noise, no signal.

I feel like the limits were chosen to force twitter addicts to upgrade to blue.

Yeah it’s a real win-win. It’s costing the site interactions, and clearing some of the spam out of AMA

my hot take is that AMA’s haven’t been good for literally years, and that most celebrity AMA’s are terrible and nothing more than cheap advertising for whatever their latest project is.

Linux mint is often recommended for new people, and has a interface very similar to windows. In my own experience, it’s very fast to get it up and running.

Reddit’s admins don’t recognize that they have very few levers to control the mod teams. They don’t pay them, they don’t give them any special benefits or consideration, and they (clearly) don’t even respect them either. All that’s left is the stick of removal, and that’s only as threatening as the person is committed to being a mod on a site that clearly views them as a disposable tool.

They’ve already replaced some mod teams with new people, and i suspect that’ll continue, and likely cause enormous disruption as people discover being the mod of a large subreddit sucks and is very tedious, dull work that isn’t actually fun at all.

Considering how much money reddit makes off the vast amount of free labor provided to the site you’d think they’d have more sense, but, here we are.

I would note that the guys running redhat likely don’t care so long as the money keeps coming. To them this is just a financial decision and all other considerations are moot.

lynx -dump https://wttr.in/XXXXX?u -width 127 > “/home/dethb0y/Documents/Obsidian Vault/Calendar Events/Astronomical Calendar/Weather.md”

Uses lynx to grab Wttr.in, format it appropriately, dump it into a specific MD file in my obsidian directory, which i then display in obsidian.

It is so hysterically niche that i can’t imagine hardly anyone would ever need, use, or want such a thing but when i came up with the idea i simply had to make it happen.
