If there was a weird procedure to open the doors I’d read that part… and anything else that isn’t standard or obvious too.

I hate to be the voice of reason here, but if you get inside a powerful device to pilot it you should at minimum read the directions first.

I’ll be honest, $240K a year is far more than I make now… I’d probably be shedding a tear as I told them to stick their spyware in their butts. 😥

Truth.

A quotation circulates on the Internet, attributed to me, but it wasn’t written by me.

Here’s the text that is circulating. Most of it was copied from statements I have made, but the part italicized here is not from me. It makes points that are mistaken or confused.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux,” and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.

Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

The main error is that Linux is not strictly speaking part of the GNU system—whose kernel is GNU Hurd. The version with Linux, we call “GNU/Linux.” It is OK to call it “GNU” when you want to be really short, but it is better to call it “GNU/Linux” so as to give Torvalds some credit.

We don’t use the term “corelibs,” and I am not sure what that would mean, but GNU is much more than the specific packages we developed for it. I set out in 1983 to develop an operating system, calling it GNU, and that job required developing whichever important packages we could not find elsewhere.

He actually added to the pasta…

She has only one buttock 🤣

A16, C7, still not quite there with hands. 😬

You’re going to use a 10 core 64GB machine as a firewall? Do you mow your lawn with dynamite also? 🤣

I’m from Archland btw

It won’t load for me, tl;dr anyone?

Because it needs an extra dongle that isn’t free and most headphones use an ordinary audio jack.

Charging while listening.

And above all, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

You haven’t read the book.

I think the A is for asexual… like why tf would someone not interested in sexuality care. At a certain point it’s just someone wanting attention and I think we passed it a few characters ago. Before you, gentle reader, get upset see it for yourself… these come from Google search, obvious joke ones were ignored:

LGBT
LGBTQ
LGBTQ+ <- this is literally all inclusive, no need to go further
LGBTQ2 (“two spirit”… aka furries)
LGBTQIA+ (longest “official” acronym)
LGBTQIA2S+
LGBTQIAAP+
LGBTQIAGNC
LGBTQQIP2SAA
LGBTIQCAPGNGFNBA+

If that doesn’t make it obvious I’ll leave you with a quote from Peter Tatchell:

It’s great to be inclusive, but the new alphabet soup is a confusing and alienating mess — made even worse when people get into spats over missing initials or the inclusion of initials they disagree with. The longest I’ve ever seen is LGBTIQCAPGNGFNBA. This is absurd. It makes us a laughing stock and devalues serious issues around sexuality and gender.

I had no idea reddit made ATMs.

So you got a crappy post removed once and you’re still salty about it. Cry some more.

However, I didn’t know what I was doing, and broke my computer just as the professor foretold.

A rite of passage.

Imagine naming your social media package after a kind of herpes. 💀

I don’t like flatpak or snap or any of them. System libraries exist for good reason, just because your computer is stupid fast and you have enough disk for the library of Congress a couple times over doesn’t mean you should run a veritable copy of your whole operating system for each program. IMO it’s lazy.

Sandboxing is a different thing though, if that’s the purpose then it’s doing it right.

They’re getting no end of grief from bad/paid actors though.
