you think a distribution that automatically includes all the proprietary stuff that we use baked into the distro would be more popular since it makes linux ready to go for most people; but it still gets fewer than 300 clicks per month.

biden’s been a political figure my entire life and i remember being terrified of him because of the anti-gay rhetoric he espoused for decades and for reaching out to THOROUGHLY despicable people to help them in their fight against progress in things like school de-segregation.

seeing him magically hailed as the most progressive presidential ally in history simply because of the toothless respect for marriage act and a pro-gay-marriage gaffe a decade earlier proved to me that political legacies are easily ignored and i expect that the gaza genocide will likewise be swept under the rug in the future like all american backed genocides usually are.

Was anyone waiting at the lights? Were other drivers in small cars that could be blinded by the high beams?

I got my laptop from system76; but I think it will be tuxedo next time

They get along great and only pay attention to each other; treats and feeding time are the only times that I exist for them. Lol

I thought that my cat was depressed because he slept all day ignoring me; so I got another cat to keep him company and now I have 2 cats that sleep all day and ignore me. Lol

until there’s a star trek like cultural and social sea change; only money can convince the masses

i want to believe that the democrats could have won; but they’re so good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory that they still would have let trump win again.

bluesky will eventually enshitify like reddit and twitter did and like all social media platforms with investors/financiers behind them always do. (reddit in particular promised not to enshitify at the beginning just like bluesky is promising right now).

be ready to find a new social platform like you had to do with reddit in another 4 to 9 years if you go with bluesky.

even bluesky’s original creator already left bluesky because of the enshitification and created nostr instead to compete with it.

careful with it; i need the thing that you asked for too and crtl+r has been effective enough to prevent me to creating it.

i have a need for something like this too; but i’ve been making due with crtl+r and that’s been good enough to prevent me from taking action on it.

it’s water under the bridge now, but thanks nonetheless and i’m likewise sorry about yours.

they come and go so quickly and that’s taught me to cherish the as much as i can while i have them (which is why i want pics) and i hope you are too.

in that case: i wonder how much “soviet union” is still lives russia and whether or not there’s enough to keep the economic progress from vanishing.

the bigger danger is being co-opted by people & groups with more political clout, but have that shallow understanding that MLK jr. wrote about; like the dnc’s failed attempt to use project 2025 as distraction for the gazan genocide.

it’s particularly heinous when lgbtq groups espouse cohesion, but only have token representation from the last 2 letters at best and frequently forget that the non-white & non-wealthy peers have other stressors that often supersedes their lgbtq identities at crucial moments like the election.

i wonder how much of that economic progress will remain after the ukranian war.

all my dogs have passed away, but i know it’s possible to train cats and now you’ve given me a new project idea that will improve my relationship with them; thank you.

They also help with producing logic if you’re stuck on a part of your project. Even if they don’t get it right, they give you a good explanation and and a better idea on what to do.

i now use it at the start of every single project and task that i work on.

i wonder if it was an american military industrial complex fueled excuse to create a new profit stream in a new proxy war between russia and nato.

ukraine is perfect because the russians will never give them up for a myriad of reasons and that guarantees that american military contractors will be able to milk profits from ukraine as a proxy battleground country for as long as both russia and the united states exist; longer than any of us here today.

i think that’s why they immediately stop what they’re doing and run towards me. lol
