Way to entrench the status quo benefiting the rich. Get people to believe only the rich are smart and therefore worth listening to.

I’m entirely confident that nobody fully understands that.

And when they hit you with the real stick it really hurts

Windows is only getting harder to control and Linux is easier than ever to get on board and learn. Are we at a tipping poing? Maybe. With what Valve is doing for PC gaming, Microsoft’s introduction of Recall for Windows 11 and killing off (for home users at least) Windows 10 in October, who knows, maybe we’ll look back and see 2025 was the year of the Linux desktop.

Move slow and break things

I have grave concerns about Peter Dutton in government.

Fedora Silverblue because I seem to break any system I have eventually, and this one’s still going.

Yeah, hopefully we can just buy cheap panels and put it together how we want. If that also opened up options for hackers to build entirely new display applications, or in new ways, that would be the dream.

They won the Battle of Britain with invisible military tech they invented, so it’s not that surprising.

But that’s the thing: televisions are complex and can be very difficult to repair, so what do you do when you can’t buy a dumb replacement anymore? I have the same issue with cars. I would like to replace ours with an EV, but they are a privacy nightmare whereas my car’s peak technology is FM radio.

I was thinking earlier today about how much technology waste there is because old stuff is superseded so quickly. Maybe in future we will treasure the tech we had before it all went to shit.

All I want is to be able to go back to previous acts. Basically to potter about discovering things after finishing the game.

Props to Ireland though

I have to try to remember what I did while I was spacing out so I don’t wash myself three times.

Well, I’ve never seen a depressed brick

Clearly it’s time to convert that WinXP partition into a virtual disk file and run it in a VM.

Of course it’s your right to choose, but I’m not convinced that’s a good enough reason. The well-meaning and honest people can make their own judgements about their employer and decide whether or not to include GPL code. Even if you change your license there will still be GPL code out there and corporations don’t need any more handouts.

Sure, sometimes the cover misrepresents the book but AI slop cover suggests AI slop content. No thanks, will spend my time elsewhere.
