“Oh no, we’re getting paid to do this thing instead of some other thing.”

Part of having a job is working on things that need to be worked on, not because they’re fun.

chitak166,

Strawberry.

Our desktops are almost identical, lol.

chitak166,

Unfortunately, the “linux-first” vendors do not offer better deals than their competition.

chitak166,

I highly recommend avoiding this rhetoric because you will end up paying more for inferior hardware.

You are not actually “doing yourself a favor.”

chitak166,

I highly recommend checking out old.reddit.com/r/LaptopDeals/ daily until you find something that meets your needs and budget.

I’d recommend Mint or Manjaro for family computers.

Probably Mint, just because Pamac still has issues.

Fedora is a bad choice because you’re stuck in the dnf ecosystem with no real benefit.

I’m a firm believer that the only value in Fedora is for Red Hat. Their shills are the ones who promote it over more practical options.

chitak166,

No, you see, additional layers of abstraction are always a good thing. Haven’t you been paying attention to the latest software memes? /s

chitak166,

I’m a firm believer that the vast majority of things we needed for software were implemented by the 2000s.

Usually, people who don’t understand what they’re doing will overcomplicate things to cover-up their misunderstandings. I think choosing a technology before you have a use-case is one of these examples.

chitak166,

Eh, I always discredit people when they say X is bad.

It’s been around for over 20 years. That kind of longevity should be praised.

chitak166,

They’ve been working on the same software for 20+ years?

Woah.

chitak166,

That’s a pretty shitty rule, lol.

We should be educating people on how to get stuff for free whenever possible.

chitak166,

Soulseek with Nicotine+.

There’s a lossless filter.

chitak166,

Physical buttons in most things are going away whenever companies see they can do it.

It’s weird looking at appliances from decades ago, mostly because it’s clear we are stuck with lower quality where people are willing to concede.

chitak166,

Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve never complained about regular office keyboards.

The worst keyboard I had was on an Eluktronics laptop because the keys were so hard to press down.

The only real downside I see is that it complicates waterproofing.

It’s also more movable parts.

chitak166,

What happened to the notification light?

My Orbic Myra 5G has one, and I got it for free.

chitak166,

No, they need to maximize profit.

🤡

chitak166,

You can stream pretty much anything for free here: fmoviesz.to

Make sure you have Adnauseam or uBlock Origin installed.

chitak166,

Undone is probably the only show worth watching on prime, and you can stream it for free here: fmoviesz.to

chitak166,

Check out Undone. It’s by the same guy who made Bojack Horseman.

chitak166, (edited )

Honestly, everyone subscribing to streaming services gets exactly what they deserve.

You can stream anything for free here: fmoviesz.to

Yet you still choose to waste your money so people richer than you can be even richer.

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

chitak166, (edited )

No. The artists I like are pretty much universally good people because they’re not wildly successful and had to mature in order to survive. I can’t think of a single artist I am a fan of who has done things that would cause me to question the integrity of their character or reassess their work.

Usually people who have this issue are ones who listen to shitty music or like shitty actors that only care about making money and being superior to others.

It’s no surprise to me that people like R Kelly pee on teenage girls, or Chris Brown beats women, or David Bowie has sex with underage girls. None of this surprises me because their creations and lifestyles reflect who they are as people. It’s always funny seeing their fans being met with cognitive dissonance, though.

I can’t really name any actors though because I already don’t like the vast majority of shit that gets pumped out of hollywood and I’m not exposed to it often. I’m sure people who are more familiar with their crap will have no problem thinking of examples, though.

chitak166,

I just use KDEnlive.
