Me trying to explain why I found 2001: A Space Odyssey an excruciating an confusing snoozefest without a single interesting point… while also insisting that Barry Lindon is one of the greatest films ever made : I SWEAR MY OPINION MAKES SENSE

Sure, but it takes extra steps and the results won’t be as good as direct screen capture. It won’t stop someone determined, but it’s annoying enough that most people won’t bother.

I was listening again to Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. It gets really hilarious at times

It’s okay people, even if the feature in itself is not awful, MS Teams still is awful. We can still bash on MS to relieve past Windows trauma.

I really want to dump on them but I can’t find anything wrong with the feature… That’s depressing, I’ll have to look elsewhere for my dose of “MS can’t do anything right lol”

Yes I see what you mean, I only stuck with the same install out of resignation and horror at the idea of doing everything again, but I constantly had the same urge to just wipe everything and restart. I hope your try with Nix goes well !

Wow resetting every few months must have been a lot of work… I never had the courage to do fresh Windows installs often, especially considering how long it took after every install to manually go through each setting, each pre-installed program and each service to manually clean everything up, and with each new Windows version a lot more crap to clean up 😭

I had never heard of the impermanence module, that seems really cool !

Right Wayfire looks really cool too ! Actually I should probably add “check every single wayland compositor” to my list, I’m curious about those based on Mir too

Nope, pretty sure French politics should get a crying face (saying this as a French citizen)

using tldr instead of man 90% of the time to preserve your sanity

🎉 COLORS ! READABILITY ! CONCISION ! CONCRETE EXAMPLES ! 🎉

I have no clue… I grew up on Windows 3.11 and I thought Windows was kinda lame while MS-DOS was the coolest thing ever because you typed things like magic spells 😅

Same, declarative configs stored in a repo sound just perfect. But I haven’t gotten around to it yet…

It’s been months since since “I’ll try NixOS next week for sure”… Any day now !

I really want to try Niri (infinite scroll wayland compositor), but since I’m very happy with Sway I haven’t gotten around to it yet.

Also I’ve been bugging people to try LFS with me for a year… WAIT WHERE DID YOU GO ??? HELLO ???

OH NOOO AFTER M&MS CARS ARE NOW INFECTED BY THE WOKE VIRUS (soon on Fox News I’m sure 😂 )

Why pretend to be a bride when you could pretend to be a dinosaur ?

I had very constructive arguments about this with my grandma :

• Can you fetch one the green tiles ?
• What green tile ? You only have blue ones.
• Goes to fetch it herself. See ? A tile, and it’s green.
• But it’s clearly blue…
• I don’t know what you mean, can’t you see that it’s green ?
• I can see very clearly that it’s blue.
• No this is green, this is blue, and the tile is closest to green.
• It isn’t though, it’s definitely closest to blue.
• A while later
• This is pointless… Let’s just call it turquoise.
• Turquoise it is.
• The next time
• Your new oven mittens are quite nice, the blue goes well in your kitchen.
• They are green…

All that’s missing is a fetch screenshot to celebrate

Rice cooker saved my life. I add whatever I have lying around that doesn’t require cooking like ham, pickles, canned veggies or fruits, fresh or dried fruits, etc, and if I’m feeling fancy I might boil eggs. Plus mushroom sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, or soy sauce. If you can find black rice in asian supermarkets it’s even better.

When the tabs use too much RAM I just pkill waterfox and restart it, so the tabs are still there but not loaded, I assume it would to the same ?

Don’t worry they say they’ll shove AI in it so it’s definitely our world
