15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi Arabian. None were from Iraq, Iran, or Afghanistan.

Why would anyone do anything if they were paid to do nothing?

Ive had the least trouble with kubuntu. Im running steam vr and it doesnt officially support all wayland distros.

Their business plan - shaft the customer - hasn’t changed in 30 years.

Even the soviets checked if the art was any good first.

.su lol

I argue that shorter work weeks are a better solution.

I thought about building a gravity battery in my yard.

The math is E = mgh. Not complicated. I think the conclusion was that to charge my cell phone from zero to 100% I would have to lower 1, 000 pounds from a height of 100 feet. Had to make some assumptions about my phone battery capacity… But still… Wildly inefficient.

That was before losses and this video says the building is 80% efficiency.

So whenever I see one of these grav batts actually being built, I wonder if they checked? I mean, it has some capacity but will it ever be worth the construction costs?

“liberate” lol

It means you smoke weed

I disagree sort of. I find it hard to believe a new distro is easier to set up than mint or Ubuntu and when it comes time to troubleshoot, youll get less support than the upstreams. Both searching existing posts and making new posts there will be less answers. Unless you make a search fo the upstream, and then there’s a chance your distro tweaked something and it’s different.

What also makes me sus is that if influencers are promoting lesser-known distros, it might be paid. Which is fine but could mean plans to monetize that distro in the future.

I like how this meme is fun because there are no politics.

I am not a kernel dev but I am pretty sure all issues/patches are sent/reviewed over the mail list. I think the gh issues are ignored and should probably be turned off.

Yeah I am a hot girl. Send me a monero and I will send you a pic of a hot girl me.

It’s 100% nvidia’s fault. AMD has been doing a great job maintaining linux drivers. I recommend it if you are pro-linux.

Can’t compare rocm to cuda though.

As a more advanced user, I have to say, the problems don’t stop. Computers will never be “solved”. They just keep making new puzzles forever. That’s whats fun.

The more advanced you get, well you can solve the easy problems off the top of your head, but now you have new problems and there are zero search results for your error message. If you can’t figure it out from the docs or irc you just have to read source code.

I try to document stuff as I find it, even if it means resurrecting an ancient thread. I often search for things and get one result, and it’s me answering my own question a few years ago.

I think windows users would still use windows even if windows broke into their house and raped their grandma. I can already hear their justifications.

XP was my last dual-boot. XP really wasn’t bad. I always feel like I dodged a the Vista bullet.

Well having the wrong permissions in system files will mess up your system. So when you restore from backup and want the backed-up permissions too.
