If I remember correctly, BEFORE he was even inaugurated

That’s at least two tiers above S, obviously

Out of curiosity, what is it you like about openSUSE? It’s been forever since I’ve messed around with it and was considering switching to it from Mint (having some graphics stability issue possibly coming from my bizarre monitor layout giving X11 headaches while using KDE, which Mint doesn’t really optimize for)

So, why would you pick RedHat over Rocky or Alma?

Or Ubuntu over Debian?

Genuinely curious, not judging

Before you know it, it’ll start not letting you save anything because the cloud account you told it not to use is full

Hey, that’s my coffee mug!

I believe that was the point he was making

If the data center is causing all that power drain, they should be the ones footing the damned bill

I’d argue any “journalist” deserving of being shit on are not doing anything that could be described as “journalism”

Which I’m sure Trump will demand he give to him

(but on a less cynical note, I agree, this deserves an award, both for the photographer in the photo and the one who took it)

I just pour a little of the hot water into it while I start my coffee brewing, swirl it around and pour it out, then wipe out the mug

I’ve never had any buildup and it gets plenty clean enough, and takes effectively zero time because I’m already waiting for the coffee anyway

They asked what’s wrong

I never used it specifically because of it being run by Brenden Eich. I have no intention of knowingly throwing my towel in and helping to enrich someone who’s thrown his money around to strip people of the right to marry who they want because he finds it icky.

I’m sure there’s other bad shit from him but after that I just treat him and anything he does as pure toxin.

If that sounds harsh, well, I don’t give a fuck.

This is why I’m on Linux at home and I refuse to update my work Win11 machine past 23H2

On the flip side, errors in 3D graphics typically won’t cost a company millions, while errors in an SQL query very well might

Anyone who cannot stop working and live off their own wealth (and not rely on the working income of others) for the rest of their lives is, by definition, working class.

So, the new Silent Generation (which only got its first and only president in 2021)

A few years ago I believed that.

Now that the fascists have taken over…not so much anymore.

I actually really liked 8.1, preferred it to 7 once I got used to the Start Screen. Surprisingly well designed, actually found myself preferring the menu over 7’s

10 had the best start menu in my opinion, but the quality was just an ever advancing downward spiral.

Now, I can’t even stand it, deal with it at work as much as I have to, but at home, the only Windows machine left is only still on it because simulator peripherals are a pain to get working right on Linux sometimes, so my dedicated simulator machine still uses that, but it’s used for nothing else

Just throwing this out there, you can turn off web search in the windows search bar… I believe it requires editing local group policy or registry, but it’s an easy tweak that you shouldn’t have to do again

It should not require this, but for those of us stuck on Windows, full or part time, doing that does make using it marginally more tolerable
