  • Maybe a weird question about Linux

    Jump

  • No, there's no point in distro hopping. If you install a well-supported base distribution like Fedora or Debian, they have metapackages for installing different desktop environments, and you can install those to try them out. I just installed Pop!OS's COSMIC environment on Fedora to give it a test drive, for example. Mint probably has them, too. You don't have to distro-hop to change desktop environments.

    The only exceptions are:

    • You want to try out an immutable distro like Fedora SilverBlue or Bazzite
    • You want to try out a declaratively-configured distro like NixOS or Guix

    An immutable distro might be a good choice for a newbie, but NixOS or Guix probably wouldn't.

  • Should I just buy a M4 MacBook Air

  • I think full hardware support in Asahi Linux is only up to like M2.

  • Since LLMs don't deal with meaning, the work of creating meaning is partly done by the past writers whose work was ingested, but also very much by the reader. This is not unlike scapulomancy or Tarot reading, only the role of the reader is obscured, because the message from the bot falsely appears complete.

  • "Anarchism is not about [...] class or opposing archists"

    Jump

  • Pretty sure we can still discuss the theoretical divide between social anarchists and no-bedtime anarkiddies and primmies, just like we can discuss the theoretical divide between MLs and Trots.

  • DHS will create its own fleet of Boeing 737s for deportations. The agency will spend ~$140 million to buy the planes, funding that comes from a massive budget increase for immigration enforcement.

    Jump

  • And when they crash, all they will call them will be "deportee".

  • What headphones should I get to stop NPR from being muttered in my brain?

    Jump

  • Anker Soundcore would also fall in this same category.

  • In 1995, a Netscape employee wrote a hack in 10 days that now runs the Internet

    Jump

  • 1995 - Brendan Eich reads up on every mistake ever made in designing a programming language, invents a few more, and creates LiveScript. Later, in an effort to cash in on the popularity of Java the language is renamed JavaScript. Later still, in an effort to cash in on the popularity of skin diseases the language is renamed ECMAScript.

  • Basically true, but if you wanted to work backwards from FALGSC to theory, at some point the path would pass through Murray Bookchin's Post-Scarcity Anarchism.

  • Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a great point

  • Oh, that's hilarious. Apparently the guy she's hitting on is Bronze Age Pervert, for those who don't recognize far-right influencers on sight. Or possibly Mike Ma, who the fuck knows.

    The Rise and Fall of Labubu: What a Toy Teaches Us About Markets, Memes, and Modern Fads

    Jump

  • I knew it was over when I saw Monchichis on a keychain in the store the other day. When Labubu first breached my consciousness, the resemblance to Monchichi was the first thing I thought of.

  • I have no fucking idea how but I woke up with a sprained ankle
