I’m sorry, brother. My condolences. I actually get my launcher from Fdroid and so I’ll probably also be fucked.

I kind of made a dumb image in my head that isn’t physically possible but the motion indicators in the image made me imagine a guy with his dong already in and he’s somehow spinning while connected. It’s funnier in my head, I promise.

I know this is a weak excuse from me b/c ppl in other countries aren’t bothered but as a 30 y/o grown ass man, I just don’t find it appropriate trying to bring women over to my parents house. I don’t even think I qualify for tinder at this point tbh. lol

I didn’t read the articles or look at the numbers, just wanted to respond to the comment. 👌

It didn’t fail, really. A bunch of distros managed to port themselves which AFAIK, this hasn’t seen the success rate that the PinePhone managed to achieve. You were even able to flash a really old version of Android on it and it well… booted.

Granted, yes, even though you could put OpenSuse, Gentoo, and Fedora on the PinePhone, that alone didn’t make them very usable. Fair enough.

PostmarketOS, Mobian, and Manjaro had dedicated their work to the PinePhone to get it a better experience. It got to the point where folks were actually trying to use it as a daily driver. The major obstacles with PinePhone and any of its iterations is the same culprit that probably made it very difficult for Ubports, FirefoxOS et. al to get to a point where it could actually be used as a daily driver.

IMO, the proprietary stuff keeps getting in the way of folks seeing progress with using it as daily drivers. The only other real thing for me that the PinePhone lacked is a good battery. Just a lousy battery. Hardware. Imagine, they figure out how to put a good battery in one and everything else would pretty much work half the time.

The benefit we all have at this point in time is that this did not end up like UBPorts or FirefoxOS because now the entire community can take advantage from what came out of this initiative. Mobile Gnome wasn’t a thing before. It is now and Purism guys have been contributing upstream last I checked. Same with Mobian guys. We didn’t have Plasma Mobile before. Now we do.

Maybe I’m just in the “glass half full” camp this time but I don’t see this as a loss.

Is it safe to assume the people that made this AI thing for TB got fired and hence AI kind of did make somebody lose their job?

Ignoring the whole sides thing, this would make for a pretty cool movie. I think the US could be taken down a peg or two at this point.

ok man relax, didn’t mean to offend you. just asking…

how come when I don’t blink it hurts and my eyes get red?

Hi, I’m Ben Shapiro.

I can’t speak very well about it because I’ve never used it myself but I kind of always the dream of giving PuppyOS to my future daughter if I ever had one. I know sounds delusional but I found the OS looks cute and maybe works.

In computer geek world, pv can stand for physical volume which is used in maybe something like LVM for Linux platforms. TMYK

I don’t dare do hardcore gaming on Linux 'cause I’m lazy. I went and bought a Raspberry Pi at some point and only tried out some distros on it. I had troubles from day 1 where like OP, I could figure out. Right now, I can’t even get Redshift to work on basically a RaspberryPi OS fork and I have no clue why.

I would also say an 8. I grew up with social anxiety and not the way they’ve been displaying it in recent media. I mean like actual, crippling social anxiety. Like I legit couldn’t talk to a cashier to pay for my own food 'cause I was too afraid. I’ve been forced to—out of necessity —to talk to people and I’ve grown accustom to doing so given the right scenario but I am also an introvert. I think all of that adds up to me just not being the type of person to go around talking to strangers. If I did for some reason decide to, I would probably be very uncomfortable. It’s just not in my nature.

Does it taste better when it blooms?

You’re not wrong—and yet, nobody decides to do anything. Still.

Shouldn’t we?

Why does BJs still have those stupid robots riding around the store? It was cute the first month but now they just trigger my anxiety.

Time to boycott Apple just like everybody decided to boycott Target and Amazon for bending over.

Free PDFs, touches on the topics and actually shows you the commands, gives you exercises + further info. It will never be an end-all-be-all but it’s a start if you’re looking to learn something. It really all depends on what you’re trying to get out of it I figure. If you’re trying to be a sysadmin, then everybody else will have a different answer.
