Evidently, a real estate development site.
... remember kids:
Capitalists hate you and want you to die.
Know yourself well, and know the enemy well, and you need not fear the result of one hundred battles.
-- Sun Tzu, not long after sharting.
Harpaxocracy.
Literally, 'rule by rapists' or 'rule by those who violently sieze'.
... i find it to be a bit more cutting and able to be said more venemously than 'pedocracy'.
One person gets a good deal of their nude body covered in peanut butter.
The other gets jam.
(Probably a good idea to shave and trim yourselves a bit before hand, your call though)
You can start in little dollops on specific areas, neckline, tip of an ear, maybe tip of the nose if you're feeling kinda funny... other areas... and then uh... clean them up... as if it was edible...
... or you can just get right down to being bread and making the sandwich.
Or you can just slowly discover all new kinds of flavors and mouthfeels you've not likely tried before, in... really any position you'd like.
Just make sure to keep the actual uh ... lock and key, make sure they are well good and clean before you try to unlock any doors.
Don't wanna end up with a yeast infection or any other kind of infection.
Its basically impossible to totally keep all your hair 100% clean, (unless you both use hair nets i guess maybe?), hence the thorough and rigorous and lengthy shower afterward.
Do let me know if this piques your friend's ... appetite.
EDIT:
Also of course do a prior determination of both party's preference for chunky or smooth, flavor of jelly or jam.
And... probably avoid or significantly alter the concept if anybody is allergic to nuts.
EDIT 2:
Also, pick a soundtrack, or two, before hand, especially if you have close neighbors.
We went with Ratatat.
There are also fully electric, battery powered, full-on, full-size motorcycles, like those by Zero.
There are also ... I don't even know what you call these, mini-bikes? Mini-motorcycles?
Like the Honda Grom:
https://powersports.honda.com/motorcycle/minimoto/grom
Which, as you can see, are pretty dang close to the same size as some E-Bikes.
Which one is street legal, where?
What exactly is each of these things categorized as, legally, colloquially?
... who the fuck knows!, basically.
I find this funny because I actually did once have a peanut butter jelly sex sandwich with someone.
Long story short, she dared me to, we used shower curtains over the bed... and floor... and took our sweet and sticky time showering off afterward.
... didn't think to uh, make any pictures or anything of it, fortunately or unfortunately.
So uh, good memories from this image, lol.
Holy shit, this fucking guy.
Holy shit you need to calm down.
It wouldn't be. In fact, it would be a lot safer, because there are more eyes on the code. You have to control the code integration authorization process obviously.
Uh.
No.
If you fully open source an entire payment processor app, a competent coder can rather rapidly figure out how to reverse engineer its security mechanisms and then develop exploits and then do fraud and identity theft and money laundering.
Sure, there is 'open source banking/finance' as a movement to open source and standardize various APIs to increase integration of certain segments of banking, but... you can't have a fully open source financial system that goes all the way through all of its security and accounts and such, 100% of it, unless you switch everything over to some kind of crypto currency.
... which has a lot of its own complications and problems.
Okay, I demand it. What now?
Well that's a very silly thing to say, which further showcases that you don't really understand the things you are complaining about / frustrated with.
Well, I have 13 out of 15 games that do not work on Proton, Proton Hotfix and Proton Experimental. And none of them are multiplayer or rootkits.
Which ones?
Whats your hardware?
What even is your actual OS/system setup?
Maybe we could try to troubleshoot them, instead of screaming?
But of course you're the center of the universe, so all you say must be right and universal, my lord? It's impossible for other people to have a different experience and problems with the system, righ
I didn't say any of that, but ok.
See, this is exactly the kind of "IT WAS YOU, MY PROGRAM IS FLAWLESS!"-behaviour of linux users that I was referencing. You're incompetent, ignorant people who can't admit if there is a problem with a program. The bug is/was listed on the project page by the way, but of course you were too fucking lazy to check.
I again didn't say that.
I said I've never had a problem with it, I have not encountered the problem you encountered.
You maybe wanna ... link to bug?
There are lots of programs with lots of ongoing or closed issues and bugs with lots of software.
I can't tell whats going on with your setup and your problem because you're sceaming like a lunatic.
Well, that doesn't mean it's not happening, you incompetent hack. Someone can have a motor failure or a flat tire on his car, while your car still runs fine. Doesn't mean that's the driver's/user's fault.
So again, chill the fuck out, I never said its not happening or didn't happen.
Realize that you're angry and confused and enraged and lashing out at people making neutral statements, because you're attributing meaning to them that is not present.
Like, you're the reason why IT support people have PTSD.
You just said you only use Bazzite. So how would you fucking know whether it works on Linux Mint or not?
No, I didn't.
I said I am using Bazzite right now.
I've been using some kind or another of linux for almost 15 years.
I am by no means an absolute expert on all things linux, but I do have a fair deal of general linux knowledge as well as more specific knowledge with the linux distros and applications I've spent more time using.
I just asked you to actually identify, describe the things that you want to be able to do, that you think are only doable on either Mint or Bazzite.
Maybe there legitimately are some things that are much easier or more difficult to do on one or the other!
I don't know which though, because you are again, extremely hostile, confused, and screaming like a madman.
Yeah, I've heard that "just a few clicks" bit a bit too often from linux users now. I don't want an extra Windows environment.
... ok... then... don't expect to be able to run too much Windows programs/features/content on linux.
You realize that WINE or Proton... are windows environments, on linux, right?
I want the program to fucking work natively.
Badically no .exe or .msi or Windows specific program will run on linux natively.
You... have to set up a windows environment, a set of translation layers, like WINE and Proton or the Soda variant that Bottles uses... to do that.
That you're emphasizing the "proprietary" part just shows how fucking salty you are that it's not integrated into LibreOffice.
No... I am emphasizing that because it is a highly relevant factor in explaining why/how open source software legally cannot freely bundle and distribute other kinds of code that they don't have the IP/Copyright/Patent/Trademark rights to.
I'm sorry, but my law firm uses that font and that's how it is. They're good fonts. Not everything you don't like is bad.
Evidently your law firm doesn't do much work around software IP law.
I also never said the fonts were bad, you just made that up.
Like... yes, what you are describing here, not having out of the box support, in LibreOffice, to open a .docx file and have all the supported fonts, yep, that is a legitimate problem for apparently your intended use case.
Generally, in an office/productivity context, its a good idea to make sure all the stuff you are going to be using frequently is compatible with each other... before you make a significant change over to a different program for a core part of the workflow.
People get paid 6 or 7 figures to determine the best way to go about doing that... I guess you just thought that such due dilligence wasn't a relevant factor for your personal situation.
I would attempt to find a solution for you, but you've already said that it needs to just work natively, or its worthless, and I'm not aware of any solutions to your scenario that just work natively, given the other preferences and constraints you've indicated.
But the linux desktop environment doesn't offer the same native functionality and comfort that I need to switch my main pcs to this OS.
They do, but you're confused and uniformed and very angry, and:
I don't wanna deal with the problems.
You do not want to have to humble yourself and realize how much fundamental, core 'knowledge' you have that is either wrong or missing.
And to be honest: I don't want to deal with people like you who blame every problem with the system or programs on the user. Keep seething. I will switch when I think the time is right.
... Yes... I am the seething one here.
Not the extremely the extremely hostile and confused person.
For a person who works in a law firm, you're shockingly bad at communication and image management.
I see any use of GenAI as support and endorsement of the technology, and I see the technology as a systemic attack on creative work by real people.
I mean personally, I do as well.
But... it's Pandora's box.
You can't uninvent it, basically.
We could theoretically limit or heavily regulate its further development, but again realistically, with how much money and power tech corporations have, how much influence they have over lawmakers...
... unless you're gonna go find an 'AI' datacenter and put salt or sulfuric acid or something into the cooling loops, no you probably can't really do much to effectively impede it.
I do block dedicated GenAI communities, but it's more widespread than that, showing up in unrelated comms, being used to generate community icons and banners.
I've also seen a bit of this, and I also find it annoying... though 99% of the time that I see something like this, its some kind of like cryptobro, when lambo, diamond hands, type person.
I don't know that it like, stems or comes from GenAI comms on db0.
but IIRC the host of db0 is supportive of GenAI, which is what I primarily referred to, and what steers the direction the instance is taking.
Well I don't know precisely what db0's (the admin) exact stance on GenAI is, but I do know that db0 the instance and community has a highly involved and active goverance model for instance rules and associations. There are fairly often major discussions and votes on a good deal of issues... as opposed to many other instances that basically just come down to the whims of the admin + a clique of powermods.
db0 themself has done more than any other instance admin I am aware of to make it so that if the community itself opposes their own personal opinion, they'll adopt the community's opinion and simply be an executor/facilitator of it.
... says the one week old account that only exists to pick fights and do nothing other than argue ideology.
Come on buddy, its possible to say something and reference an example of a controversial/touchy topic, as an example of being a controversial/touchy topic, without wanting to engage in that controversy.
sigh
I'm not going to have this discussion, again.
I'm tired.
Thank you for proving my point that some .ml users get very very touchy about these two topics.
Valve can take the risk on doing actual innovation because they functionally have a large pool of 'fun money', that does not come with a board of shareholders attached to it demanding that it constantly be put to use making next quater profits be as high as possible.
You save up that fun money fund, and when an actual good idea gets committed to, you can now actually just fund at least a moderately sized go at it.
... and, because its ... you know, their money, with no shareholder or lender strings attached to it... they could fail completely, and then just eat the loss.
As opposed to now having to reorient other segments of the company to make more money to make up the difference to the board or lenders.
Valve doesn't have utterly huge manufacturing (or warehousing) capabilities the way MSFT, Sony, or Nintendo do.
They very likely just retooled the spaces they were using for the Steam Decks over into making Machines, Frames, new Steam Controllers.
As in, they probably just entirely stopped mfging new Steam Decks like... I dunno, 3 to 9 months ago?
The RAMpocalypse certainly isn't helping, but I'd say its much more significantly due to Valve running basically a pretty small manufacturing capability compared to other ... game-device makers.
... that and ironically having to pay import tariffs to actually get things from China into the US.
Oh dear god.
Welp, I tried.
But at this point I'm convinced that the Windows implementation of secureboot just basically is a direct to FBI/NSA/CIA backdoor/wiretap so uh...
Like, come on.
What other software just regularly directly rewrites the BIOS/UEFI when you try to fight it? Or just, when a Windows update happens?
Its a bootkit, as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah that's a bit of a tough problem to crack, lol.
Great head admin, good variety of local communities, great users?
Debian is a rock solid choice.
I dock mine, hook it up to a TV.
I run a local LLM on it.
I do modelling/animating in Blender.
I do game dev in Godot.
I do video editing in ShotCut.
I do image manipulation in Krita, mostly.
I do these things far more often than I actually just play games on it.
Well we actually don't, because Trump pressured Gallup into no longer doing Presidential favoribility polling.
