arch.

though honestly the distro doesn’t matter that much, as long as it supports the majority of your software stack. almost everything is in the big distros (arch fedora Debian), so just pick whatever ur most comfortable with…

i must say I like the rolling release of arch. and the fact that it’s very up to date…

wow where was this?

what’s the context? are they cutting Medicare Medicaid?

he’s also supposed to get a stipend every month…

i hope he still gets his veterans benefits

what I’m amazed by is that those who would benefit most from socialism are the ones who call it “handouts” and vote against it

the only social media I have is Lemmy and mastodon. I prefer Lemmy to mastodon. (I also have kbin)

I quit Facebook, Reddit, Twitter etc. because of content manipulation. They suppress posts against their agenda and promote those for their agenda. I always knew this, but when I realized I was being influenced, I deleted my accounts and quit.

Only things I’ll use now are open source, decentralized, and non profit owned. (I’ll gladly donate)

can u boot Linux of a USB? some USB drives give 1000mbps read so should be nice and snappy for a root fs

pdftk can split it into pages, and then recombine the pages. not sure how to automatically remove an element from each page unfortunately.

There is no way Trump will pardon him

Other famous predictions I’ve made include:

• There is no way Trump will get elected

• There is no way Trump will get elected again

• ublock origin
• dark reader
• firenvim
• vimium
• containers

any chance you can build me a bot that pretends to be a rich Prince that wants to give me a lot of money… but asks me to pay a small collection fee first?

asking cause u posted in programerhumor

post title isn’t the same as the article title

lmao. he didn’t have the courage to speak out against trump publicly. he didn’t have the courage to endorse Harris. he did what he was supposed to do and what any law abiding citizen would have done in his place.

lol. i used Gentoo for 5 years or so. it’s the only distribution I don’t recommend.

it assumes you have hours of CPU time to waste, and hours of your time to dispatch-config afterwords.

do Debian or arch.

honestly most distros will be fine. what matters more is your desktop environment. pick something light where Bells and whistles can be turned off. i used fvwm for many years on a lower spec system. now I use kde/plasma on wayland.

I’ve used arch and Debian on low spec systems. both were fine. slightly prefer arch cause it’s more up to date

ha. i was wrong. NPR has 44 million weekly listeners. that probably qualifies as mainstream media.

I thought npr had 10 times fewer listeners than that. (fyi NPR is the only radioi listen to)

there have been several articles exposing plastic recycling as green washing. unfortunately they never make it to mainstream media

https://www.npr.org/2022/10/24/1131131088/recycling-plastic-is-practically-impossible-and-the-problem-is-getting-worse

i saw a chart somewhere showing less than 1% of plastic in use today is recycled but I can’t find it now

vim, fvwm and Debian after 10 years of use.

I found firenvim which allowed me to edit text boxes in Firefox using neovim. couldn’t do it with vim, so I switched. love it

I bought a new laptop with a 4k screen. had to have different scaling on my external monitor and laptop screen. fvwm wouldn’t handle it… switched to kde/plasma and arch.

not sure if this is the kind of habits u were looking for 😃

I have so many idiot friends who said “I’m not voting for Harris cause of Israel”. I’m betting that line was a plant by the Republicans or Putin. but it stuck. and my friends bought it hook line and sinker.
