  • I dunno, personally I’d rather know about this type of stuff - before this I’d have thought about buying or recommending it - it seems decent enough.

    Although, I doubt I’d ever have bought one at those prices so maybe irrelevant. But this will be enough that even if i do win the premium bonds, I won’t get one and I won’t recommend anyone else. Some shit does continue to stink.

    Any twat who thinks they are “building a wide tent” by tolerating nazis is pretty much a self defeating prophecy, or just a nazi trying to hide it.

    I’d just rather the title was clearer - I have no idea what an ‘omarchy/dhh/hyprland’ is, and I don’t see how those words help the headline at all. Though anything with “hh” is immediately suspect - so that gives a cryptic hints what the title might be insinuating. I think title should just say for ‘promoting nazi stuff’. If anyone cares about the details of these obscure projects then they can read more of the article.

    Do people feel they have to be crypto-antifascist now? That’s a bit of a scary turn of events.

    I buy the phone for the os these days. It does mean getting a used phone from back a few years.

    I think newer phones seem to make it harder maybe even impossible to unlock the bootloader. I use a sony xa2 (2018) and it’s only possible because sony still has a service to issue unlock codes for it. I think if sony turns that service off, then no more lineage os unless you already unlocked it.



  • Good for you - but that’s not everyone’s experience. So don’t put your experience on others either.

    I’m sure it works the other way round, just as often. But that last time when my sister was literally filling out an RMA form for a perfectly functional disk drive because her brand new laptop wouldn’t play a DVD. That was the last straw for me and windows. (except at work of course until/ unless I can get a better job).

    Windows, 20 minutes of being advertised at like the internet before pop-up blockers, being pushed to windows store to buy the film again from them, trying a few different media players from the store, various googling - i cant even remember if i was able to install vlc before giving up and going debian - fuck that, unusable, and she couldn’t do it either, so that was at least two of us in the well-below-average slice of the distribution of windows users.

    Linux mint live iso booted about 5-10 mins to burn it and boot, play dvd (I dont even think i had to install vlc). Plus a bit of time to figure out how to get the boot menu. So maybe she was above average in debian users?


  • Guess what, just like you dgaf about all the windows issues i have that you don’t; i also dgaf about all the linux issues that you have that i don’t.

    It should be a mater of choice, but it isn’t. I don’t get a choice about windows for 7.5 hours a day because too many humans are fucking cunts - plus a lot of anti-competitive business practices and grooming lncompetence in corpo procurement . I don’t really blame ms for that i blame people who keep paying them to make their shit worse, and the procurement rules that they come up with to bend themselves over that barrel.



  • There was some guy on telly did a test. Half the group had to eat oranges. The other half had to drink orange juice. Then swapped them over the next day. I can’t remember the exact setup but i think it was like ‘eat/drink as much as you want, stop when you feel full’.

    Everyone was able to consume far, far more calories in juice form and probably far more sugar than they needed.

    I think like even eating enough oranges for 1x300ml glass was hard for many people to do in fruit form. Basically, the rest of the orange filled them up and that’s what we’re better evolved for: slower digestion of a more varied mush and lots of fibre and stuff like that.

    The juice is far too easy for us to eat way more than needed.
