“Rogue”

but I have to at least get some exercise to keep it running.

Fuck that’s brilliant

I didn’t choose Linux, Linux chose me…when windows got unbearably enshittified.

Although admittedly I’d been using Linux for years beforehand, just not for gaming.

Ohhh, gotta see if my system lets me do that one 😂

tree, locate, nvim, flatpak, htop, bmon, etc.

nvim is great and convenient in many ways, and a vast improvement over vim, and yet vim is so amazing on its own that I can’t even be arsed to add an extra letter to the command like 70% of the time.

Plus it’s built on Debian right? So if you ever want to bring things even lower-level you’re positioned well to learn more in preparation.

Mobile surveillance stations. Typically solar powered with a backup battery, and the inevitably monstrous result of surveillance capitalism.

Oh no, both are full of pedophiles. When jewish pedophiles are caught in many countries they flee to Israel, it’s a whole thing. No one’s sending their best to Israel.

It’s also worth noting how Isntreal became full of pedophiles. You see, most people don’t want to be part of a violent genocidal settler-colonialist state, so to get people there you can’t be picky.

Sure, being formed after the most industrialistic genocide to date on your chosen people gives you a head start in having lots of desperate people to get going, but what about after?

Soon the only people who want to join are a bunch of psychos and kiddy diddlers, so you take them in, offer them a bunch of disempowered “other” children to prey on, and gin up antisemitism in other countries where jews with more of a conscience and actual skills are a harder get so you can get your numbers up.

who obviously only has a little stuffed penguin on her purse zipper because they don’t make teddy bears that size.

Omg that sounds adorable! 😍🐧

I think the freedom aspect is about framing. Rightists often speak in terms of ‘freedom of’ (as some vague general principle), whereas leftists often speak in terms of ‘freedom/liberation from’. Technologists of all stripes often speak in terms of ‘freedom to’, so in that way Linux is a bit of a ‘freedom Rorschach’ 😂. Personally I prefer if rightists stick to their windows hidey-hole but I’ll gladly take their labor for Linux 😈.

For my part Win 10’s EOL and attempted force to 11 was a bit of a “straw that broke the camel’s back” moment, as I’d mostly used Linux for experiments and learning before that but hadn’t realized how user friendly it got. In a weird way I’m grateful to Microsoft for forcing my hand to full-time Linux because my learning ramped up significantly and now I don’t feel likely to ever return to windows 🙃, and can also wholeheartedly recommend Linux to everyone! 😄

😂 Yours is certainly more original!

That’s the thing about Linux: If you learn windows thoroughly you’ve set yourself up to be a corporate slave, but if you learn Linux you liberate yourself and others.

Linux in its modern form is a day to learn and a lifetime to master, which is a huge step up from where it was a bit more than a decade ago. Even then, it’s still miles better than windows. Microsoft would copyright a hammer and nails if it could.

Damn, it’s always the ones you most expect

Hoover? The vacuum guy?

Iceland?
