you do realize this makes everyone immediately discard your opinion, because it’s useless, right?

you are aware that TUI has been a standard thing for ages, right? wanting GUI features inside a terminal isn’t new and i’m not sure if you had a point with this comment other than trying to dunk on them…
yeah no i’m sorry but this just sounds completely fucking made up
I’d summarize the current OS situation as
Windows Just Works until it doesn’t, at which point there’s basically nothing you can do about it and you just have to kick it until something clicks into place and it starts working properly again.
Whereas linux Just Works to a slightly smaller degree, but when it stops Just Working it does so in granular steps most of the time, and every part of the ecosystem tries to help you fix things when they break.
Windows is a resin-potted black box that takes input and does stuff, if it breaks you’re supposed to just chuck it and buy a new one.
Linux is a slightly bulkier thing that you can just unscrew and replace a capacitor when it breaks.
part that, and part just that windows is successful because it’s successful. Everyone learns windows, thus everyone uses windows, thus everyone teaches windows.
It’s like how all life on earth produces and consumes a specific form of sugar, but when you make sugar in a lab you get both forms, and the second form is completely inert to all digestive systems on earth.
a minority of the population voted for trump though, it’s not like 50+% of the total population voted for him, it’s 50+% of the voters, a lot of people just didn’t vote.
it’s not a sports game, it’s a game sport
if that makes sense
but then how will you play ominous sonatas in the night?
and this is why we unionize, by all accounts we should be working so little at this point that we’d have 5 hours set aside for gaming
i for one welcome our grub bootlorders
people who unironically recommend anything arch-based (haha yes steamos is based on arch, yes you’re very very clever, i’m sure you can even figure out why it’s an obvious exception if you think about it for a minute) are just detached from reality and simply want to be part of a group.
The only time arch is suitable for beginners is installing it in a VM to learn linux via brute force, after you’ve gotten used to going through that process you’ll have a very solid base of knowledge for using a more suitable distro.
is GW2 the one where quests just get beamed into your head when you cross a border?
great way to make people detest gnome and flatpaks for the rest of their lives! brilliant move!
sure a model could theoretically be open source, but in this case that source would be 1) the software to train the model and 2) the training data, and good fucking luck getting either of those honestly.
the AI sphere has co-opted the term “open source” because it sounds nice, what they actually mean is just “a free copy”, a free copy of deepseek is available for download.
They seem to be able to fiddle a lot with the models, but in the end calling it open source is just blatantly not fucking true.
I think i have 3 big criteria:
Other people have mentioned things like venture capital and that’s certainly something to bear in mind (arguably part of the structure), but there are projects like Matrix where that feels quite marginal to me, the aforementioned aspects more than make up for it.
Like when the main figurehead of the project goes on stage and nerds out about the code, that’s a pretty fucking good sign in my book.
it’s basically the exact same thing as i’ve seen with IRC, people keep saying it’s decentralized and then when asked to show an example they just go “yeah well uhh obviously it’s not externally decentralized duhhh! It’s ✨internally decentralized✨” which just means they protocol makes horizontal scaling easy…
okay
but that doesn’t magically mean the watch doesn’t exist lmao, my point is that pebble wasn’t actually particularly peak.
But you know what, i kinda suspect you just want to be a hipster…
have you actually used other smartwatches? i have a xiaomi smart band 8 and it’s honestly really damn good, especially for costing 80 bucks. Even without a fancy display it has longer battery life than a pebble.
Only things i miss is physical buttons and more openness in the software, but honestly the only one that actually bothers me is no physical buttons.
hopefully a case of “if i don’t include this keyword i will miss out on tons of shit from stupid people who want into the trend”
