Neat! Thanks for sharing!

This hit me just right today. Good reminder to be grateful for what we have.

I’ve been a big fan of Manjaro for exactly that reason. Something breaks occasionally and gives my skills a run for their money but a lot of the difficulty of running a rolling release gets nullified by the testing Manjaro does for you. It’s a great compromise, you get almost bleeding edge for much less work than an arch installation can take.

I love me some Debian for their stability and security, I run Debian or Debian based servers mostly. But I wanted something closer to the bleeding edge for my desktop so I could make use of newer features, run newer packages etc…

Also drive Manjaro and I tell people I use Arch, there are dozens of us

Same, I stream using the airplay protocol from my Lyrion Music Server and haven’t had to touch their app since they arrived. If they fuck with that though so help me god I will write the nastiest things about them on the internets.

I think it is measured and professionals who work in areas where this was relevant probably track this number among many others. I think the real question you are asking is why it is always framed as a % of GDP in public discussion and news reporting. Some people here point out how % of GDP can be more useful for comparing across countries with vastly different sized economies but I think we all know the real answer has more to do with how people perceive the value differently by using the larger number. Framing government debt as a % of GDP serves the zeitgeist, whatever that is.

this is great! It was good before, I’m excited for better

There’s absolutely a place for generated music. I have no doubt I’ll be bobbing my head to some ai beats before long. I think I was just bemoaning the changing of the things. Effort in the cause of good and beauty should always be rewarded.

Not a generic AI hater, just kinda pointing out how this is some generic soulless music. Posts like this used to mean someone spent hours and hours writing the song, recording it or producing it etc… Now it’s a subscription and a prompt. Just not the same, even if I hadn’t liked the song I would have respected the work but now, I dunno.

Anyway. I gotta give props here for the visuals though, someone clearly put time in there and I appreciated it.

i also use arch btw this some ai shit isn’t it

Yeah that looks like a no for me holmes. The ai features don’t tickle my pickle and while it’s still probably the best camera out there I crave that battery life more. MKBHD already dropped his initial reviews as well for what that’s worth.

Got my new phone budget two weeks ago and I’ve been waiting to see if the new pixel was worth it or if I should just buy a oneplus 12. The camera on the oneplus’s are never as good but all the other pixel features seem so meh usually. Especially that battery life, why can’t they just stick a bigger battery in these things.

I will happily take this opportunity to complain

/startrant that the abandonment of couch co-op is the worst thing to ever happen to gaming. There are some great couch co-op games out there, BUT NOT NEARLY ENOUGH. Seriously, the number of goddamn games that expect you to HAVE TWO COMPUTER AND TWO SCREENS SO YOU CAN PLAY CO-OP WITH SOMEONE ELSE IS TOO DAMN HIGH. /endrant

I highly recommend Broforce, any of the Larian studio games (Divinity Original Sin, Baldur’s Gate 3 etc…), Battleblock Theater, Castle Crashers, Cuphead, For The King, Hypercharge Unboxed, It Takes Two, Portal 2, Overcooked, SpiritFarer, Stardew Valley, Untitled Goose Game, Wobbly Life. Wish there were more.

It is the damndest shame that the Halo Master Chief Collection doesn’t have local co-op, still upsets me to this day.

I work in this field and I think this is 🔥 af

I caught that technomage reference, for those who don’t know I believe they also post in this community

Preach it!

I think it’s all those years lawyering. She’s spent more time arguing cases in front of juries and judges than political speeches and it kinda shows.

ss -tulpn was a welcome find for me. I have it memorized for netstat and dislike always having to install it on a new box, very handy tool

This is super useful, thanks for sharing!

I think that one is for the Mormons? I’m like 85% sure they think caffeine is against their religion.
