  • do you miss anything from windows?

    Jump

  • Very little. If I'm being honest with myself, I have a slight preference for how DOS/Windows handled mounting drives. I've never been a huge fan of the UNIX directory structure anyway. I'd like to see some sort of filesystem hierarchy reform for a clearer format.

    But of course, using Linux is a relief in most ways. There's no going back.

  • Which Linux distro for home server?

    Jump

  • Since everyone already mentioned it, I recommend Debian.

  • Do you stick to the same linux distro across your devices?

    Jump

  • Oh no, I pick a different distro for different needs. On my desktop I run openSUSE Tumbleweed for that rolling release goodness (and the occasional hiccup). It's my main computer and I like to keep it as up-to-date as possible.

    On my laptop and media PC I use Debian, because I don't update those as often and "stale" software is fine, preferred even, and because I don't want to troubleshoot updates on the run with my laptop. I also used Debian (well, Raspbian) on my Raspberry Pi, but I retired that one. In general, I prefer Debian for servers.

    I also have a PinePhone with postmarketOS, but I rarely use that these days. Still, I just recently re-installed it to have a small Linux tablet computer just in case. pmOS is the best OS I've used on the PinePhone, though it can't really fix the PP's inherent issues.

  • Department of What?

    Jump

  • It's frankly stunning just how little these people understand basic politics and the systems they are dismantling. They are profoundly stupid and too ignorant to realize just how intellectually ill-equipped they are. They have no understanding of why the structures they are tearing down were set up, and think that political institutions purposely created to serve their interests are hampering them. They repeat age-old mistakes and think themselves geniuses for it. It's almost inconceivable that people this malignantly incurious reach positions of power. But they have, they do, and they will again.

  • Huh. Imagine that. Thanks!

  • Evil Ultra trying to split the vote 😠

    Jump

  • Well that's a depressing read. The American rot runs deep. It's frankly disturbing how accurate that article still is.

    The writer drops some great lines though.

    Thanks.

  • Evil Ultra trying to split the vote 😠

    Jump

  • I am reminded of two quotes from Fear And Loathing On The Campaign Trail '72 by Hunter S. Thompson:

    How many more of these stinking, double-downer sideshows will we have to go through before we can get ourselves straight enough to put together some kind of national election that will give me and the at least 20 million people I tend to agree with a chance to vote FOR something, instead of always being faced with that old familiar choice between the lesser of two evils?

    Jesus! Where will it end? How low do you have to stoop in this country to be President?

    How low? Now, I guess we know. Voting for the lesser evil for 50 years has got you Trump. Twice. How much lower are you going to go?

    I have no solutions. Things will probably have to break completely before the mending can begin.

  • What are y'all reading this week? [27/2/26]

    Jump

  • Love that book and its descendants. The movie is an amazing piece of cinema. Rarely have I been so entranced by the back of someone's head. Tarkovsky was a master of his craft. The movie is fairly different from the book in many ways, but possibly for the better.

    Hope you enjoy the experience!

  • What are y'all reading this week? [27/2/26]

    Jump

  • I'm working my way through Anne Applebaum's Gulag: A History. It's a good book for sure, but I think I've grown a bit numb to the constant horrors within. Even as long as this book is, I feel the subject is so vast that there's a lot left unsaid. The more I read about USSR, the more questions arise. I have to read something lighter next.

  • Bcachefs creator claims his custom LLM is 'fully conscious'

    Jump

  • Oh Kent, no. No Kent, no. Kent.

    Perhaps Kent, being such an apparently difficult personality type, is just so lonely he has to think at least his chat bot loves him.

    Kent is obviously a talented programmer, but that guy doesn't seem to be right in the head.

  • Cheaper

    Jump

  • It's an old Czechoslovakian show called Pat & Mat. Took me a while to remember the name, it's been a long time since I last saw them on TV. Really good and universal slapstick humor.

  • Oh, I like this. Nice.
