No shade to my Ace friends intended. Totally possible to be horny for art or rock collecting or whatever. Doesn’t have to be a sexy thing. I’m horny for none of the above is totally valid.

The default should be “I’m horny” but unless I specify you have to guess who I’m horny for.

I did computer work in an old hospital and there was a secret bathroom in the basement near the server room but it was terrifying because it was used to store CPR dummies so if you wanted to poop in there you’d have a dozen open mouthed elderly torsos staring at you.

Debian + Containers is definitely the way. Literally so stable it’s boring.

Perfect beautiful lies folks. Everyone knows it.

The more I learn about Valve culture the more I realize they definitely have teams just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. I bet there are some really wild prototypes that we never get to see.

Running games at 800p targeting 40fps is a lot more viable than I would have expected just looking at the numbers. It looks great for a display that size and 40fps feels like it’s a lot closer to 60fps than it really is.

I get why people using it as their primary gaming device would want more power but as a secondary device for me it’s stellar.

Bazzite works so well out of the box that I don’t even have to think about drivers.

Same here. I love DuckDNS but after the third DNS outage taking down all my services I migrated to Cloudflare and haven’t had a single problem since.

Newer Dell laptops I’ve worked on have them soldered on to the motherboard.

People tend to think of digital things as unchanging and permanent but that isn’t really the case. I’m fascinated by the concept of bit rot and other ways that digital things can disappear or degrade over time.

It’s good that flash is not still an essential part of the modern Internet but its death did firmly cut off an entire era of Internet culture that cannot be experienced in quite the same way.

I have yet to have any success with Bottles but I assume it’s because I don’t know what I’m doing and I’m trying with software known to be difficult.

I remote into a Windows PC for Fusion 360 and Affinity suite but if I could get those working on Linux I’d be in really good shape.

I asked my employer provided AI assistant if this is true and it assured me that natural snowfall was disinformation invented by leftists in order to destroy our capitalist utopia.

This message brought to you by Jill Stein who pops up every four years to grift money and accomplish nothing except cozying up to Putin. I guess there is still the brain worm dead animal guy?

Third parties in the US are unserious. I wish that weren’t the case but that’s the reality.

I’ve not tried GPT4ALL but Ollama combined with Open WebUI is really great for selfhosted LLMs and can run with podman. I’m running Bazzite too and this is what I do.

I see there is an m.2 slot too with what looks to be a Kingston SSD.

I’m still confused what era this laptop is from. It might be a SATA m.2.

Wayland was subject to “first mover disadvantage” for a long time. Why be the first to switch and have to solve all the problems? Instead be last and everyone else will do the hard work for you.

But without big players moving to it those issues never get fixed. And users rightly should not be forced to migrate to a broken system that isn’t ready. People just want a system that works right?

Eventually someone had to decide it was ‘good enough’ and try an industry wide push to move away from a hybrid approach that wastes developer time and confuses users.

Feels like this would be a bigger win for them than a lot of other companies. The people interested in privacy focused alternative to the Google/Microsoft/Apple offerings probably have a lot of overlap with Linux users.

Right in the middle of Berlin.

Can someone please validate my decision to pay $23 a year for this dumb corndog.social domain just so I had something fun for my Lemmy instance.
