Dicks out for Harambe. 😔

It will get repealed when all the always-working parents can’t stand “teenager smell.”

Those kids ain’t right, Peggy.

everybody gave up on snooping around on my desktop

Bonus points if you can touch-type: Legendless blank keycaps. XD

Exactly like a Chromebook. Those stupid things were (are?) such a coordinated landfill and education-decimating campaign.

With my mom in law’s, I had to go through so much crap to overwrite the bootloader using some saint’s scripts just so I could put Linux on it. The stupid thing (an Asus) actually said “We’re done updating this thing. Buy a new one. Lol.”

The way they foisted that Temu-grade hardware on impoverished schoolsystems across the country is disgusting.

It rings a bell but I’m not sure if I’ve watched it. Will definitely check it out. Thank you!

Yeah, I’m also sad to think how many brilliant souls wander the streets because care is withheld out of reach. Whether the victims are geniuses or not though, the streets were the wrong replacement for mental institutes.

I agree, chat bots can be neat (HUGE caveats), but in the midst of unprecedented loneliness and mental anguish, they’re gasoline on a trash fire.

Illustrated plainly by the fact that the next post to this one in my feed was about the always-controversial bcacheFS author claiming he’s achieved AGI and has a self-aware AI girlfriend.

“Oop…hup… Uh-oh. I’m in a hole.”

Something tells me that’d be so scary if Terry (RIP) was able to integrate an LLM into TempleOS.

It’d be miserable but man if we gotta skip some lunches to dethrone unjustified authority structures I’m so down. 👍

This one big time.

It’s anecdotal but like 90% of my psychological torment disappeared overnight when I quit a horrible job I’d been trapped in for 8 years.

A lot of recovery work I’m doing is trying to undo all that. It made me insufferably cynical, angry, depressed, anxiety to 11. But it paid bills.

The other 10% is ADHD. Society also punishes that one in fun ways. (And has now turned it into yet another marketing trend. Hooray.)

But being denied free will to act in the world and determine one’s own course is damaging to the human psyche. Being coerced into doing something stupidly pointless on top of that, for little in return, is even more damaging still.

I am praying this is wrong SO MUCH.

I’m happy seeing so many kids getting into retro hardware and actual computing and physical media and stuff. We should tighten that bolt.

As much trouble as we’ve got, I REALLY will not live in this “everything is just a terminal to The Cloud™” world. It’s disgusting.

There you go, kids! Behold, The Future™!

Having RAM prices skyrocket 9000% and all the ecological destruction was totally worth it for a future that’s continvoucly morged!

Fast forward 30min of training and the final outcome is a model that outputs “do nothing” in 100% of the cases.

To be fair, your program demonstrated the most reliable way to win at crypto! 😉

“I would have been your daddy, but the dog beat me over the fence!”

you can also alias rm to run sl instead :)

Choo-choo!!

Hehe I just thought of a hilariously nefarious prank: alias ls to sl. 😂

I was thinking about the cables themselves but, you’re right about the McGuyvered adapter!

Wonder if it gets hot over time. 🤔

…I really don’t know electronics and want to pick it up soon haha.

I was expecting a pair of flip flops. :)

EDIT: oo, maybe one of those motor-unicycles!

… is it the “UNIX-Hater’s Handbook” from 1994 with a parody of “The Scream” on the cover?

LOL nice, I’ll have to check it out. :) Thanks!
