one of the best things about a phone based server is that it consumes basically no power at all

to be a member of a society, requires that you do not use a throwaway account to dodge responsibilities

basically every video he makes is excellent

follow the vibes, not just the rules

the internet is like a series of pipes

it does concern me a lot that both uutils and ladybird use permissive licenses

yeah just chuck’em in a cylinder and off they go!

wait I think I remember something similar, something about logitech joyticks being really good

those spot weld things are really neat

I guess escapade being tiny gave them a lot more margin

I meant software attacks, if your hardware is compromised it’s pretty much already game over unless you use something esoteric like heads maybe

you can actually speed it up a ton by making baloo only index file names and not file content, and selecting specific directories to index

efi partition on a separate disk makes a lot of sense actually, imo the biggest point of fde is that your boot environment doesn’t get fucked with from outside your trusted os, so if you put your efi on a read only CD or something and lock your bios to boot into that, that can’t really be tampered with easily in software

does blender have vr support?

not having to rely on “black box” solutions are really nice

ok imma drink 2L of bleach

Quiet small upgrades are good. You do a couple of them and your rail network becomes a lot more usable.

Establish national standards for high-speed rail, in a way that is classic-compatible, so that trains can run slowly on legacy lines

I don’t think this is as useful or easy to do as it might seem, because track gauge/electrification standards are all over the place and sharing tracks with normal trains makes your HSR unreliable and constrained in terms of scheduling. Even normal rail lines barely share track because you don’t want issues from one line cascading onto another

Arch wiki page on the laptop doesn’t say anything about sleep, maybe try that “sound open firmware” thing it mentions

you might want to try an arch based distro to see if their thing works better or something

in my opinion a big requirement is longevity. If I’m going to recommend a distro to someone new to Linux, I don’t want them to go back to w*ndows because their distro gets unsupported. That’s mainly why I like mint, Debian and arch.

as much as I like Wayland, I don’t think it’s a hard requirement yet. I like mint because it’s extremely well polished. You really have to try it out to actually see it, but it’s insanely well done.

I’ve had more problems with my turing card on x11 than wayland (kde), with random issues with the application menu and weird colour management. That said wayland isn’t very good on that card either.

I think nvidia cards are just bad in general and comparing x11 vs Wayland on nvidia is like comparing different types of feces

there’s things that only work on Wayland though, like smooth touchpad gestures and waydroid
