Distrobox and Flatpak are more than enough at this stage for most programs

Maybe for you, but personally I could never get by with only that. I have zero interest in atomic distros. To me they look like an inferior version of NixOS, which I have yet to fully wrap my head around. Until then I’ll stick to Arch (BTW)

Remarkable how that happens, isn’t it? The company was fine while they received a paycheque but the very next day they are despicable.

Carney does like that word a lot, although not nearly as much as “if I may”

That keyboard layout gave me a stroke. I’d rather relocate Enter than the apostrophe. I suppose that could be remapped…

Carney also called him a “transformational president” who “revitalized international security” and Trump nodded “it’s true!” because he’s too stupid to realize it wasn’t a compliment.

I don’t understand how that’s even possible when they have so little to show for it. I like to imagine it’s full of maliciously-compliant people trying to bleed Meta dry from the inside.

The meme that GIMP is in any way comparable to PS? Yeah, I agree.

The only surprise here is that it was for China, not Russia.

Isn’t that movie notoriously terrible?

For whoever is interested in reading it, I quite liked the Peter Green translation. Fair warning though, it’s quite long, longer than the Odyssey.

Ackshually it’s only Hectoring if you drag them behind your chariot, otherwise it’s just sparkling heckling.

I just noticed that the title of this post indirectly has the name of a Rush song in it. It was meant to be!

Ubuntu in the mid 2000s, but it’s PopOS that made me a fulltimer ~2 years ago. I don’t use it anymore but I’ll always be thankful for it.

That Germany gave rise to Fascism. It was “invented” by Benito Mussolini based on a hodgepodge of preexisting concepts and named after the fasces carried by Roman lictors, the bodyguards who accompanied high officials. Benny wanted to recreate the Roman empire so he drew a lot of inspiration from it; it’s why the fascist aesthetic is so classicaly-inspired with a dash of Italian futurism, which was also in vogue at the time.

Poor Mussolini doesn’t get the respect he deserves. First he failed at being a leftist, then failed at journalism, and finally the one thing he actually did that had any impact on the world is usurped by some random Austrian artist.

Type II “sorry”

Love this, and now that I see your username I find this quote has a Banksian quality to it.

Type I: I’m sorry
Type II: You’ll be sorry

Oh hey 2112… You’re actually the first person here to notice / comment on it!

It fits — Charlie is a punk rocker whose band opened for the Dead Kennedys.

Never thought of that, I may give it a shot!
