There’s very few people that hear about Linux and then switch over the next day. It’s something that needs to fester in your head for a while. I didn’t start using Linux full time until like a decade after I tried it for the first time

Reminds me of the poor newscaster who was murdered and set on fire.

They could have had the best helicopter in the world. They still shouldn’t have been flying it in those weather conditions.

If someone is running towards your wife with a knife, are you going to wait for him to stab her before you shoot him?

Shortly after Columbine, my school banned backpacks and if you brought a lunch box to school, they would want to search it.

Following in porn’s footsteps I see. Can’t pause a video without getting an ad shoved in front of your face.

Think of AI like computers and spreadsheet software in the early 80s. I bet a lot of accountants were pretty freaked out about what this new technology was going to mean for their jobs.

Did technology replace those accountants? No, but companies probably didn’t need as many accountants as they did before. AI will likely reduce the number of programmers that a company needs, but it won’t eliminate them

If dairy restrictions are a disability, then me being left handed is also a disability.

I always thought the K in KDE just stood for KDE.

At my job, it used to be the department managers who did interviews and made hiring decisions, but then they changed it so that HR would handle all of that. Ever since then, they’ve gone and hired the absolute shittiest people you can imagine. HR has no idea how to hire people or what to look for. They even hired a sex offender to work in an area where children are likely to be present because they never bothered to do a background check.

One thing I’ve noticed is that it pretty much always takes two days to deliver your items. The only difference is that Amazon will let your order sit in their warehouse for a few extra days if you don’t have Prime.

I don’t think I’ve ever used Ubuntu for more than a month. I just don’t like the way it looks, how locked down everything is, and how hard it is to customize.

Wouldn’t work because if you live in an apartment, then your neighbors are going to skew the numbers. There’s no way for them to know if the guy who lives on the floor above you is in your apartment or theirs.

There used to be a video store near me that had a 444 deal. You could rent four movies for four days for four dollars.

What are you upset about an opt-in feature?

Plasma has gone from being one of the worst DEs (slow, buggy, kind of ugly) to being the absolute best in a really short amount of time.

Plasma just has killer features that other desktops just don’t have, like KDE connect and the encrypted vaults. Sure you can get those things on other desktops, but they’re not built in and they’re nowhere near as seamless. Plus KDE apps in general are just better.
