I want to REALLY get into Linux I mean like using only a WM and not a DE. Learn nVim, make some cool Shell scripts and download graphene OS on my phone,
OK hear me out, I’m going to install boxes on my arch install since I use arch btw, and install Windows 11 in a VM.
I’m then going to sign in with my Microsoft™️ account and give them all my data. Then after my free trail of McAfee™️ and Norton are install, and I play the free games that are included like Candy Crush Saga™️. My VM will evolve from just a VM to a M. I do this until the FBI van arrives as Microsoft sell my data to to Government, or until my beast of a machine slows to a crawl as Microsoft™️ takes more data trying to find a buyer.
Then I will install Oracle™️ VirtualBox™️, and try out new OS’s like Ubuntu and Linux Mint. And when I settle on POP_OS I will free my M (since its prolonged suffering has evolved it from a VM), and install Linux.
Then I will find something wrong with the install, probably complain about SNAPs being an option, or that not all of the software is FOSS. Remove POP_OS and install arch.
TLDR I use arch BTW in both my ssd and my fake HDD on my ssd
Joking aside, politics are everywhere, and Lemmy is always going to be more political than reddit, as choosing Lemmy over Reddit is almost purely a choice based on political values.
Those things were so hideous… and I actually thought they were cool at the time… well. Except OS9 sucked balls.
The power mac versions with the pull-to-open side were cooler. Mostly because there was a space above the PSU had just enough space to accommodate a tub of cottage cheese.
Pop it in on a Friday…. You’d be having class…. Elsewhere on Monday…
There isn’t, the message itself is satire. The audience is precisely who the message is for, it’s making fun of Microsoft comparing FOSS to Communism, parodying red scare propaganda.
I’ve been away from Linux for about a decade. Currently setting up Docker, and struggling with subuid and subgid. I’ll get there eventually, but man, this shit has really changed since I’ve been gone. Loving the challenge though.
With Microsoft, any love shown could well be the Embrace part of the strategy that will lead to Extend and then Extinguish just as soon as they can figure those parts out. They might already have a plan.
The fact they've been able to turn things to their advantage so far does not mean they don't have such a plan. Or won't ever have one.
Set up a bunch of self hosted apps on my pi 4 (Nextcloud is erm, next) to completely end my reliance on public cloud.
Use the Grocy instance I already have on that pi to plan recipes and eat healthy (after gorging myself like a drunken pig between now and new year’s day.)
This weekend’s job though, set up a quick ‘n’ dirty torrent box/ NAS with an old laptop for festive movie watching before building a better solution out of an old desktop once I have the cash sometime around summer.
