came here to say something like this and it makes me wish i should stick my head in the sand like this.

why call it france 2?

i’m been hearing about how italy is showing the world how well collectivism can work and it makes me wonder why it works there, but not here.

probably some social media giants run Linux or UNIX-like OSs, too.

i would be surprising if most didn’t.

agreed, Debian’s rock solid for 99.99% of people.

You just have to also accept the fact that if you’re doing something niche like VR gaming or using weird third-party custom hardware or something Debian sucks ass.

i’ve worked on predominantly debian based infrastructure professionally for multimedia companies in the last 10ish years, so it’s a little bit funny to me that og flavored debian doesn’t do this, but it clearly can if you can afford an army of developers to create it for you.

entire multi-billion dollar revenue streams literally exist because of debian doing this and doing it well, but everyone popularly and unquestioningly believe that you can’t do it on linux. lol

The only problem I have is that CTRL+V get intercepted by the terminal before it get to vim. That means that block visual mode is not available to me

this was was my biggest gripe with wsl because i do 95% of my work with the vim and bash and i’m saddened to learn that it hasn’t gotten better.

boring is awesome if you need to just work all the time and for a long time.

it wasn’t powerful enough to satisfy its colonial ambitions, but it did try nonetheless.

either that or get gentler machines. i have an impeller driven washer and portable dryer that doesn’t ridiculously hot and my clothes has lasted for literal decades now.

it also helps being naked 99% of the time too. lol

gallows humor has proven to be an effective coping mechanism.

i switched jobs almost a year ago and inherited a 15+ year old code base with stuff like this in it; i just act like i don’t see it so that i won’t be tasked with fixing it. lol

Fucking fuck the US government

– for the last 200 years

the last time i used wsl on a work windows laptop, windows fucked up the virtual disk drive and everything in it was gone.

this was about 5 years ago, so hopefully it’s gotten better.

capitalism with a very short leash can be useful; what matters is who holds the leash.

i knew i recognized the name somewhere earlier today when i learned about it, but i couldn’t remember how until i saw this; i was forced to use it because of windows a while back.

i remember liking it too.

maybe no hablo ingles. lol

at some later date, when the united states is barely a regional power, the venezuelans will forget why there was any animus in the first place and i don’t know how to feel about that.

MUCH better news that yesterday’s

nearly all of them are; just look at .world!

it’s wild to see the united states use the same playbook they used to regime change so many other places.
