Clearly I was not the first with that call to action.

But seriously, Windows is awful. I’ve had to use it lately, and it’s comically bad. Like the OS shows me ads! Wtf!? In Fahrenheit 451, it describes the billboards as longer so you can read them while driving fast on the highway, and I feel like the ads Windows shows are basically a similar type of dystopian. And like, now you can disable more with menus, but then the disable option is like buried somewhere hard to find.

New job time!

I’m sure that will go well…😑

I, too, follow a lot of comedians on IG, but I’m noticing a problem lately: there are soooooo many recommendations that I hardly see the ones I follow intentionally. Like I get that the business model is addiction+distraction, but it seems like it’s undercutting its own business.

Screenshotted just in case.

Pretty much. AWS offers (and runs on) Linux AFAIK.

How?? I do not see a link to a running instance… …is it right in front of my face? I’ll look again.

Can I see it in action?

Wtf – if you put more money in a glitchy vending machine, you’re gonna get yet more items.😑

Possibly a dumb question, so I tentatively pre-apologize: is LXC “Linux Container?”

5/5

In fairness, x11 is a bit of a dumpster fire and has been as long as I’ve used Linux (since 2003).

Bless you🙏

Why? Cuz companies mistakenly think stalking customers is savvy business.

Me, I’m big on free, but I recently noticed something… What was it?.. Someone told an anecdote about something they valued, and it seemed clear that it was because they paid. And it got me to thinking money is effectively now what church was thru the 1990s. And, like, is that weird and probably dysfunctional? Yes. Does that make it less true? No.

Your bar is high! Does it boot to a GUI? That’s mine, and it sounds like it doesn’t – so no YT.

/shrug that’s gotta be the most being scam I’ve ever heard.

You can do it!

Linux (esp Debian) loves tenacity.

What a bizarre and terrible idea. I def think Twitter circa 2009 was the pinnacle.

I’ll hand it to Elon Musk, tho – the dude knows how to destroy value. I wonder if he literally sets it on fire.
