politics, murder 

Boeing murdered John Barnett, 2024.

I might finally switch from Firefox(n't) to Floorp...

It's still possible in 2024 to just make a website using straight HTML and CSS. That option never went away

I've installed several distros of Linux on the same hardware and network just worked out of the box. Bluetooth didn't work though :c

"Wondoze has better drivers than Linux!"

  • I installed Wondoze on a real unmodified Intel computer, with an Intel Ethernet chip
  • Ethernet doesn't work
  • Sneakernet driver from Intel for wrong version of Wondoze
  • Modify .inf files
  • reboot
  • Go into scary blue screen, then scary black screen, disable "driver signature enforcement"
  • reboot
  • try to install drivers, get presented with big scary red warning
  • install anyways
  • network works, yay!

So much easier than apt, pacman, dpkg, etc /s

Google is virtually useless (and hopefully doomed). I searched for something technical about Linux and the content of the second result was literally "jar vegetable piquant crime fear rude provide run direction ruthless". Yep, those words verbatim.

Hopefully that was[n't] nuclear launch codes or a sleeper activation code or something that I just copied...

Oh, except for modern Ubuntu.

Any version that included Snaps, or even Upstart.

Versions that came on physical CDs were pretty okay. Plus they came with free stickers!

I'd like to take this time to appreciate the GNU/Linux/POSIX operating system(s). It's been really empowering to me and has enabled me to do so much. Thank you everyone who involved in the creation of this software, you're amazing :3
