Idk either tbf. Maybe being pessimistic is the smart move here.

I thought he was in his 70s? Maybe you know more about the Brazillian justice system tho.

27 years seems pretty lenient given what he was convicted of. I realise that he’ll probably never be free given his age but I don’t think that the defendent’s age should affect the sentence, especially when they still have their supporters like Bolsonaro.

I need a GitHub style host for my git projects. They are all toys and I don’t write anything worth collaborating with me on! Anyway my current CV has my GH profile linked to it so that people can see at a glance that I have personal projects/toys and know a range of languages.

One thing I’m going to miss about leaving GH is that I’ve got a few commits in FOSS projects on there like the Gentoo Package Manager, although maybe I can follow them if they move.

Alpine package manager and use of MUSL over glibc are pretty similar to a BSD. Like others have pointed out there are limits to how closely a Linux distro can match the deliberate structure of those distros given the different design philosophy

OpenRC works just fine for me

Even ATCQ have the unfortunate Georgie Porgie in their back catalogue

Disappointing but he won’t be the last rapper who expresses conservative views. Rap as a genre tends towards having materialistic and conservative lyrics so maybe we shouldn’t be surprised.

Dinosaurs would be fun, and would accurately portray canonical

Just in time for Sony to release another Overwatch-like destined for the scrap heap

There are a few projects like lima and crossroads (not sure about name, might be crossover) by canonical which create a new user in /home and runs ubuntu “natively” on M series chips.

I’d be tempted to stick with macOS and get an M3, then run linux in a VM with QEMU or whatever. Given your focus on ergonomics I don’t see any other hardware that will match your expectations.

Refurb models come with i5 processor at 3.5Ghz and 4GB RAM but has another slot you can put another chip into (or replace both with 8GB RAM chips). The processor is also replaceable so you could hit a higher clock speed. Everything in a thinkpad is modular including the screen so you can pretty much do what you want with it.

Edit: Yeah, tbf I skimmed over your spec list. Not sure why the apple hardware or the CPU generation is important, especially for the latter where the clock speed is what really matters. Could probably put 16GB RAM in each slot.

Edit2: X1 Carbon or something from that series would probably match the lightweight requirement although they are less modular. No replacing the CPU.

Thinkpad T420

It does get better with some of the more advanced distros. Perversely they are easier to run and maintain. The beginner distros try to hide the complexity to make everything more user friendly but these abstractions can be more confusing than the fundamentals they are hiding.

However there’s nothing people online can do if you don’t find linux interesting enough to do a deep dive on it.

Ooft as if I needed fewer reasons to buy a PS5 Pro

Seems a bit harsh to gun someone down over a speed running competition

Depends how much time you spend in the terminal but if you spend a lot of time there then it can just about replace a tiling VM with a maximised terminal screen. Has full functionality to add workspaces, sessions and split windows horizontally/vertically.

I partially get around the loss of my tiling WMs on my work PC (macbook) by leaning heavily into tmux. I know there are MacOS tiling managers like spectacles but I prefer using applications that are multiplatform so I have “transferable skills”.
