I’ve never paid more than $150 for a phone

I’m contemplating buying a fair phone and going de Googled android. that will cost a bit more and take a little bit more time …

have u tried signal?

honestly idk why people say the arch install is hard. it takes 30mins max. instructions are fantastic.

in my defense, Gentoo was harder to install than arch…

honestly I loved Debian stable. unfortunately I got new hardware, and Debian stable didn’t support it. I hacked by on a combination of testing and backports for a bit. but it finally got too much and I made the switch…

oh lol. so I installed Gentoo in 2007 or so on an AMD K6. I set the architecture to 686. Cause it’s a K6 right?

build failed after a day of compiling. tried again and the build failed again. finally I read the docs and there’s an innocuous like saying all K6s are 586.

What a waste. switched to Debian after some 3y of Gentoo. switched to arch after 10y of Debian. been on arch 6y now…

somehow I trust bytwdance a lot more than trump backed companies…

moot point though, cause I’m never on tiktok

why is the American chemical society joining with Wiley and elsivere?

oof. no escape key. i bet there are no vi bindings either.

my oldest regularly used computer is a 15 year old desktop I use as a backup server at home. my newest is a 4y old laptop. i repurposed 8y old laptop for my kids.

hardware now is so good you don’t need to upgrade much…

codeberg is owned by a nonprofit. highly recommend it

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.

I just make /root/.config/nvim a symlink to ~/.config/nvim and running nvim as root gives me all the same settings I’m used to. (I’d rather not run nvim-qt as root though, so in that case sudoedit is useful.)

lol. i wonder who is paying for this?

oof. blue sky was created by the guy who made twitter wasn’t it? if he sells to the next bond villain, blue sky will just become twitter 2.0.

open source, decentralized.

thanks. I keep Firefox updated. the fact that changing the user agent gets the delay is pretty damning evidence

how do I find out more about this and what scripts do I need to make the sites faster again on Firefox

Founders were looking for a 1bil payout 😂. they settled for 116mil 🤯…

why would anyone pay for a company that flopped so fantastically? this makes no sense at all…

honestly, I’ve had arch on all my machines for 5y now. the install was simple, as long as you followed instructions to the letter.

the rolling release is beautiful. i never ever have to go through the install again
