What, beta?

Son of a bitch, I put the beta on last night lol.

A libertarian would say they get sudo, but you don’t get sudo.

I wouldn’t be able to get to work or buy groceries without a car. I also refuse to pay the cost to live in a walkable area, as everything is significantly more expensive. The change required to create a city that is both affordable and livable without a car is impossible at this point.

I think, realistically, anything up to 10 years ago can run most distros. Some better than others, of course, because of the DE load.

I’ve got kde neon on a 2013 MacBook Air and it’s great. I also have put Ubuntu budgie and SDesk on an old HP Chromebook with 4gb of ram. And, obviously the 16gb disk is crippling, but it runs better than expected haha.

Tbf, most distros work on older hardware.

Plasma is quite nice now.

Ha ha, way way back in the day when I didn’t understand how keys worked, I sent a private key to another developer when they asked for my public. They were kind enough to educate me.

I don’t use Google. I haven’t used Google in… I dunno, a decade? They offer no services that are better than the competition. In fact, the only quality thing they ever made was Google maps.

Yup. Along with the code from huge organizations. I always thought it was funny that people put their code online, blindly trusting some random company that got gobbled up by Microsoft.

Typewriter.

Russia probably. They love sneakiness.

97% are now infected with malware.

Imagine putting private code online lol.

We learn more lessons by failing than succeeding.

Bing?

Still can’t get me to the grocery store, but it can tell me how fucked I’ll be financially.

I’m actually 100% for rolling your own… almost everything.

20 years ago I made an e-commerce website for a client. Looking at the code now I’m embarrassed how insecure it is. However, because it was totally custom no one ever found the bugs and it has never been cracked. (Knock on wood) that’s the benefit of not using a prebuilt solution that isn’t a target for mass exploits.

Don’t judge a book by its comment history. You should block me, so we don’t have to interact again. I will do the same. I wish you well.
