Have one extra buzz from me as well. Screw RedHat and everything it does.

Solved. Had to run flatpak remove --all followed by flatpak repair to prune caches, then re-install every app again. But configs and logins seem to remain intact.

Yet another reminder that all the mentions of Dunning-Kruger are a better display of it’s perceived effect than the original study ever was. In the original study, people correctly predicted their performance relative to others, but the discrepancy was in the scale of that difference, which can be attributed to numerous factors. Dumb people just took it as “stupid people think they’re smart” and run around saying “Dunning-Kruger” to sound smarter… oh the irony.

And yes, given two mentions in the above text, this is, indeed, a suicide by words.

Probably tens or even hundreds of millions*

I joined shortly before Musk takeover and it was already a dumpster fire, so I made a script that searched for spam and fascist dogwhistles in the background and preemptively blocked them all 24/7 up to the rate limit. Two years later and well over 300k blocked accts later I gave up and deleted the account after seeing it barely even made a dent in the threads I was reading there.

I mean, I just use AI to generate comments and mix suicide instructions in. Something like commenting a cupcake recipe and adding “tie rope around your neck” and “jump out the window” in between the steps provided by AI.

I used to run an LTE-enabled nettop instead of a phone during the app-only craze, can’t get any worse than that. Recently removed bank apps, taxi, delivery, maps, youtube, email and all social media apps off my phone in favour of using websites instead. They’re still a bit of an afterthought compared to apps so the experience is a bit clunky, but the option is available for most things nowadays.

How do you guys even get banned? I’m straight up posting AI-generated suicide instructions nowadays, and I get more engagement and less shadow removals than I had before.

Damn, it looks like everyone whom I told about this just wants to see me suffer. Alrighty then, see ya in… sometime. The journey sure looks rough, given that my hardware is barely supported by linux, nevermind an experimental OS from the 90s…

Not sure I understand, but you grab below glans and force foreskin on and off the penis head repeatedly. Don’t have to pull it all the way to the tip, going halfway is enough. The foreskin skin is much smoother than hands, so barely any lube is required, just the natural skin oil is enough. I wouldn’t call it smegma as it usually refers to white substance full of dead skins and bacteria, but the underside of healthy clean penis foreskin is naturally a little wet.

I am seriously considering switching to either Gentoo or 9front…

Pasting objects into text files is pretty disruptive

It’s still text with some formatting underneath, though, just like HTML. Actually, in HTML we already have it in form of contenteditable attribute. You can straight up paste images and move other html elements into elements with it. I just checked, you can even do this with full on canvas elements and animated webgl views if you wanted to for some reason, though the code must be adjusted to account for it. I have yet to see it being useful and not a liability, though.

Eh, I wouldn’t say TempleOS is disruptive. It was literally started off as a modern-day C64 successor. So, tradition all the way.

More like gacha where you put actual coins in them to find which kind of psycho they are. Jk but not jk, fuck my luck I guess

I always assumed 1km = 0.6 miles because all all of the car guys yapping about 0-100 and 0-60. Good enough, tbh. Inch is 2.5cm, and there are 12 of them in a foot for some reason. Pint is slightly less than half a liter, pound is slightly less than half a kilo, and anyone mentioning stones gets stoned to death. Simple enough.

Is it not?

Acers are like that in my experience. The last one I got with the complaint of “being too slow” had half the case empty because they re-used the old case that was supposed to have a CD-drive in it. And, in it’s place, there was a fan with no heatpipes, no radiator, nor even any holes on the bottom, just some spacers so it sucks and recirculates the air from within the case, and blows it somewhere in the general direction of the motherboard, where, a fucking mile away, there’s a G-shaped piece of foil with just TWO fins slapped on top of the CPU.

The two gigs of ram are, of course, soldered on, and there was already an ssd (though, on SATA and no secondary port either). So I just settled on blowing the dust out and swapping whatever sludge they had for a decent thermal paste, put Xubuntu on it and advised the nearest recycling plant’s address. Of course, I could drill some holes and hack some better thermal solution, but I found that this 5+yr Celeron machine with 720p TN panel is just not worth any effort. It was brand new, btw…

For some reason the only electronics I get asked for help with are literal e-waste which existence must be considered crime against computing, engineering and even humanity. Because of that, my success rate is less than half of cases. Is it bad, or should I consider it good that people only call me in worst possible cases where everything else failed?

The classic card payment and subscription model is actually insane. You literally have to beg companies to stop taking money from you. Good thing it is changing with more modern payment systems - you literally just stop paying for services you don’t need and it’s on them to stop providing them to you. Nothing is ever charged off my account without an explicit action from me.

Where did the trend of writing on munitions come from? Is it Ukraine or were there cases before that? I’m trying to figure why would anyone ever do that, to me it sounds the same as mass shooter gun scribbles kind of lunacy.
