“You just need enough drugs to make it work”

You figured out the name of my memoir!

Yeah I didn’t think I needed it. It was a last second addition just in case.

In didn’t plan to distro hop on the chrome book, but having something actively maintained that’s a nice’d up Debian would be sweet.

What have you done to me?!?!?

Are these distros good at supporting various old chrome book hardware? Hell maybe even something like Mint would work, but I should probably stick with the lightweight ones.

I just did this yesterday! I’ve worked with Linux/Unix for a long time, but I’ve never had a Linux machine at home. We had an ancient cheap chromebook and I turned it into a functional Linux laptop! I used GalliumOS though, which isn’t being actively developed any longer, so I might have to change setups eventually.

There must be room in the world for a high budget “Mordor vs USA” parody movie.

Or maybe a 30 second comedy video.

Choice 1: third party you prefer Choice 2: mainstream party you prefer Choice 3: mainstream party you don’t prefer that gives off apocalyptic vibes

This is what I was trying to describe. It’s the same old US third party voting trap as always.

…as long as choice #3 isn’t apocalyptically bad, right?

Right?

Reversible seats sound marginally more expensive to install and maintain. The benefit is to make the customer’s experience better while adding no revenue.

Sounds like some anti-American euro-commie bullshit to me!

Zink, 1 year ago to memes in $45 for a cup?!

That’s a great video! Looks like I need to upgrade my whatever-brand water bottle to a Stanley!

Those “anti bird spikes” look like razor sharp bladed caltrops to me!

I haven’t played VR for a couple years, but I played hundreds of hours of it in the 2018-2020 time frame. It has a long way to go but it’s already amazing too.

I guess 57:57 is the same vision as 20:20! It’s just a ratio of your eyes vs good ones.

Zink, 1 year ago to lemmyshitpost in It's like everyday

It stinks to think that the mainstreaming of this platform that definitely should go mainstream would probably diminish its value for me specifically.

But I guess that’s what communities and even themed instances are for.

Zink, 1 year ago to memes in Poverty isn't a flaw its a feature.

Assuming those other people are all bad or at the very least less than the good people?

Using that as a reason to not help people? And love sharing it?

Using the same money on dumb wasteful shit for yourself?

I think the people you’re running into are just run of the mill conservatives.

Zink, 1 year ago to memes in Add-on: same password, same identity.

I’ve done this and it has been convenient, but using a password manager is still the way to go IMO. The personal password algorithm approach starts to be a pain when you need to follow a different set of character rules or change a password. With a password manager there’s no hesitation or friction when considering a password change.
