Restarting is good for a computer’s health, right? I think my Kubuntu laptop is the only machine in my house that averages less than two weeks of uptime

The virgin USB: hey, uh, when you get a chance, uh, if it’s not too much trouble, could you, uh, put an ‘e’ there? Whenever you get the chance is fine

The chad PS/2: THE USER SAID E.

Yeah, that is lie 48 characters that we’d had to pass by phone and they have to type it flawlessly.

Wouldn’t be so bad if everyone knew their Alpha Bravo Charlies

My one talent: alpha bravo charlie delta echo foxtrot golf hotel India Juliet kilo Lima mike November Oscar papa Quebec Romeo Sierra tango uniform Victor whiskey x-ray Yankee Zulu, typed using voice to text

Doesn’t it run on Arch? Crazy to think there’s a bunch of Arch users that don’t say they use arch btw

Ubuntu, installed on a 256 gb flash drive as an experiment back in 2020. My first daily driver distro was Mint last year, then KDE Neon, and finally Kubuntu today

Distro doesn’t matter to me anymore, I just like the Plasma DE and will use anything that uses it. Eventually I’m gonna have to try Arch with it and make my own Steam machine

I try it every couple of months, but as long as it’s faster to boot into a Windows install and start Fusion360 than it is to learn how to make a cube in FreeCAD, I’m going to keep my windows install

That point in time is forever for me. I’ll spend a few thousand on a really good bike before I buy a car that needs regular software updates

Hey Jesus can you help me get Disco Elysium running on Kubuntu? I would ask for help with Fusion360 but I would probably need your dad’s help with that

REISUB. I own you machine, and you will do as I say. Reboot.

I almost added that, but I’ll be real, I have no clue what a junior programmer is lmao

For all I know it’s the equivalent to a journeyman or something

“Programmers are cooked,” he says in reply to a post offering six figures for a programmer

I like that analogy. A walking stick you buy from a store can never fit you as perfectly as one you make yourself, but if you don’t know how to make a walking stick, you’re gonna make a shitty walking stick. I’m happy that I’m in a position to walk with a shitty stick until I get better at carving, so to speak

Me going from Mint to Ubuntu to Kubuntu to Neon to Arch. My experience with the Arch installation process is just the command shutdown

Someday I’ll be comfortable enough with this nerd shit to trust myself with unsupervised access to a CLI. Until then I’m happy just knowing what a DE is

Fr, GitHub may as well be written in wingdings

Thank Linus for nerds that write proper readmes

This is a job for water detectors, which I have no qualms about connecting to the internet. They have the added benefit of detecting leaky pipes as well

Personally I would much rather touch my phone with my dirty hands than a toilet handle

I have become the red shirt from my favorite SMBC comic

However, my feelings regarding smart devices remain intact

Day 3,801 of thanking God I was born a Luddite

Anyone who thought their toilet would be improved by having an internet connection deserves this

duel boot

Lmao Linux and Windows sitting there like ⚔️ ⚔️ ⚔️

There are dozens of us. Surely someone can figure out how to port F360 to Linux, or make a functional clone
