- Comment on End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending 1 day ago:
I have four pieces of advice
- btrfs file system for easy backup and recovery
- Encrypt your drive
- use an ad blocker everywhere
- use virus total to scan anything you might be wary of, and if you really feel like you need an AV, they do exist for Linux.
I usually prefer Debian based systems, but when I finally ditched windows 3 weeks ago, I switched to Manjaro, and I’m loving it. You got this!

My experience comes from previous attempts at using wireless headphones. It’s just easier for me to plug in and not have to do literally anything else for a premium listing experience.
- Comment on What would this list look like for your generation? 2 weeks ago:
Fein comes from the Travis Scott song Fe!N. While it is a synonym of “addict”, Travis uses it more as a musical refrain. The repeated and somewhat goofy intonation of the repeated phrase is what lead to the memification of this slang word. When using “fein”, it can be used like any other nonsensical filler word.

Chat, we are so cooked. Diddy hit me with stage 5 LIGMA in Ohio.🥀 I tried to tell the huzz, but I had massive beta energy 🪫🥶 and just stood there like goofy ahh broke boy NPC.🧍No mames! 😫

You really think that’s a dunk? “Wireless” just means you plug it in when not in use. There’s nothing hard about plugging in a 3.5mm audio jack. I’ve never been sufficiently convinced to actually use wireless headphones. They seem like more of a hassle for a worse listing experience.

Apple has so much bloat, crapware like AI GenMoji don’t even play dumb lol
- Comment on I can't believe it let me do that 3 weeks ago:
No, it’s genuinely good, at least for now. My only issue I’ve experienced is that it would go to sleep and I wouldn’t get notifications anymore.
I switched to QUIKand have been pretty happy. It’s not perfect, but it does what I need it to.
- Comment on God is a dick. 3 weeks ago:
Is Planck time even proof of anything let alone god? I mean, even if some glowing entity descended from the clouds and declared, “Behold, I am God,” would that actually convince anyone? We’d just have another person claiming to be god – which, let’s be honest, is not exactly a rare event on this planet.
What even counts as sufficient proof of God? A signed affidavit? A peer-reviewed miracle?A TED Talk with miracles? The whole “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic” thing kind of ruins the whole premise. Realistically, we’ll never have proof. At best, we can conclude that proof of God is permanently out of reach.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. I am God.

And he’s laughing all the way to McDonald’s
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 4 weeks ago:
He’ll probably succumb to his lifestyle choices first. He might even get bird flu or a virus long thought eradicated. It would be really tragic if it was something climate related like his Florida home sinking into the ocean.
- Comment on The internet is bad ux, everybody. There's too many choices. 2 months ago:
They can’t stop people from hosting private servers or creating protocols for bypassing restrictions. And even if they did, things like SSH and remote desktop would be completely useless, but those are necessary for maintaining even the corporate web.

- Comment on Anon has marital problems 4 months ago:
I’ve never been married nor divorced, but I’ve heard friends talk about needing to “just bring him the paper to sign” I don’t know if they’re just stupid, or if there’s an option to just nullify the marriage. Granted these people were very poor and to my knowledge had shared literally nothing financially.

It really is fine just how it is. Image boards will always have dead links. There is nothing we can do about it.
