“I be working” sounds better though. :p

RIP bloodninja.

I’m with you on the no real names, no nudes. “Don’t dox yourself” was the norm pre-Myspace. Facebook made it almost fashionable to do so.

I’m fine with shorthand and colloquialisms, especially in the era of the smartphone and their lack of physical keyboards.

RMS has officially lost his shit.

MobileCoin, it’s been around for at least 5 years. https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360057625692-In-app-Payments

Sign up without using a phone number or email. Threema isn’t trying to shoehorn a silly cryptocurrency project into the app.

Threema.

Neutron music player.

FairEmail.

I used to see it in the States maybe 15 years ago but I also saw it in the UK (Liverpool) about a decade ago.

That is not a normal interaction anywhere that I’ve been in the States and not in Chicago. Despite what the press says Chicago is a very beautiful and relatively safe city. The people tend to be civil.

Double thumbs up for the point made and link to libre epub.

Fedora.

Opensuse Tumbleweed.

It’s definitely more frustrating. I’ve had a similar experience trying to help people with their Windows PCs. Thankfully I’ve managed to convince a few to switch to Linux Mint.

No systemd on my void or gentoo builds either.

Where is a macbook air $300? Off the back of a truck?

Threema still works.

Void is far from torture. It is just as easy to set up as Arch, if not more so.

Arch is too easy to set up nowadays for it to be a “thing”.

Maybe 15 years ago when the process was slightly more complicated but even then it’s always been paint by numbers.

Even Gentoo isn’t that difficult, just time consuming.

Making a note of fd and edir for later. Thanks.

You want a Dreamcast, a PS2 or a SNES.

Maybe that’s what they want…
