  • If only we could have the real Terry Crews as president.

  • This is it folks, we've gone full Idiocracy.

  • A special kind of stupid cult at that level. The top guys are con men and the followers are rubes.

  • No one likes little teddy, it appears.

  • Cake

  • And here I thought that was a screencap from the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

  • Very true. Pretty much everything is made up from something they saw on CSI or NCIS the night before. They are trying hard to make their "industry" cerebral when it just isn't.

  • Same here. Both my brother and I are left-handed. I'm the analytical engineering type. He's the musician type. I'm about as creative as an algorithm. He got the creative talent genes in the family.

  • I'm not saying you shouldn't. I'm just saying that we tend to sensationalize the wording more and more each day. Eventually, there will no longer be words strong enough to get the appropriate attention and people will suffer because of it.

    I'm not faulting Anker. I'm faulting Gizmodo.

  • Ahh, the sensationalist headlines. "STOP USING THESE NOW OR YOU WILL DIE!"

    I'm not calling out you, OP. This is just the nature of journalism now. "OH OH, LOOK AT ME!"

  • I gave snaps a fair shake as well. I've never been beholden to any specific distro or family line either so I've always been open for new and better. I just struggled with the lock-in and the slower responsiveness.

    I didn't have much trouble with updates on the Arch side but I saw it more as an accomplishment than a daily driver. I did run it for a few years on an older system where I needed to squeeze out efficiency. I haven't been one of those users that needed to tweak everything always for a long time.

    I also appreciate the delineation between regular updates and security updates. I did my biweekly system updates for work yesterday and that delineation helps me gauge the time it will take before pressing enter.

  • You assume I give a shit about the state where I live.

  • That's my only concern with running pure Arch. I like my computer to be usable. I'm well beyond the state where I want to spend more time tinkering and repairing than using. I do like the idea of rolling release but not bleeding edge (i.e., released 5 minutes ago). Also, I removed snaps from my Kubuntu instance first thing.

  • I'm looking for both personal and business. My net is cast pretty wide.

  • "You had my curiosity but now you have my attention." I'm a very light Infomaniak user now but I'd love to explore a NextCloud host that offered similar features.

  • That makes sense. I have found a new love for KDE. I had been a GNOME user for years before but I went with Pop_OS for a bit before feeling like that was a bit old. I moved over to Kubuntu for the new Plasma 6 hotness and I really like it. I've run Arch before and wasn't really keen on the instability so I haven't delved into any of the derivatives yet, although they are looking nice these days. Maybe I'll dip my toes in those waters soon. I'm still in a test phase for full-time desktop Linux, though. I'm probably going to buy a Tuxedo laptop soon and I plan to give their OS a try with the purchase.

  • What are you running now that you've moved on from Kubuntu?

  • I guess my next system should be an AMD just because Intel may not be around for much longer to support.

  • I wonder who downvoted you. It's a true statement. Capitalists aren't there to make good products or services. They solely exist to squeeze as much money out of everything they can. They are a disease.

  • Just think of all those lost profits and how high we could get one or two guys net wealth!

    If anyone in those socialist hellholes needs an experience information security engineer, I'd love to protect things that actually matter for a change.
