Resol van Lemmy

I literally just logged on after months of activity, and suddenly I remember that this event happened exactly 24 years ago.

What are the chances of this?

I know the BBC has made a Mastodon instance as a test some time ago. If only other broadcasters did something like that.

Those Mac vs PC ads need to return.

Friendly reminder: before people liked XP, people hated XP. Much of the criticism that applied to Vista at launch also applied to XP. Guess which one is looked back at more fondly.

And I actually thought Vista was good. Leagues better than XP even. It served me well for 3 years. Now I don’t even use Windows anymore.

I still remember the iPad ad where this quote was mentioned and it… idk, it definitely feels a bit weird to me. I’m probably guessing there will be more people who will wonder what a computer is in the future.

And that ad was from before iOS 11. I’m serious.

You bet that’s a game I’m willing to try out now that you recommended it to me.

Open-source Mario Kart with all the functionality of Mario Kart, and you don’t even have to spend money on an actual Wii.

Not confusing at all, not even the slightest bit.

The only reason why I use Nano is so I can act like DankPods while saying it.

Na-no

I don’t use Arch Linux, I use “Arch Linux”. Completely different, btw.

Sometimes, when dual booting Windows and Linux, especially on the same drive, the Windows installation just breaks. Sends you to automatic repair only for it to not work.

I learned this the hard way.

New knowledge. Thanks.

Are puffins allowed at least?

The Steam Deck exists. It runs Linux. It’s even an actual computer that you can plug a display, keyboard, and mouse into, and then gawk at the wonderful KDE Plasma desktop environment that this thing ships with. Sure, not all Steam games work on this thing, but you still have access to a lot of stuff.

But I suppose some folks will insist to install Windows on it, or get a Windows based alternative.

She made some poor decisions, but that doesn’t mean she deserved to be finished off by cancer.

I kinda miss the time she was CEO of YouTube, the chaos she brought to the website was just absolutely hilarious and funny. And now that Susan is gone, we’ll never experience that era of imperfections again. Not that I prefer it over the early years of YouTube, it’s trash by comparison, but still, it’s the FUN kind of trash. YouTube today is the painful kind of trash, especially with content farms basically dominating the website.

Fuck cancer. Also, now that I said all that, I’m kind of expecting a stream of downvotes.

What about Linux from Scratch?

I only continue to use Windows 11 because dual booting Linux breaks my Windows installation for whatever reason. I’ve been told that putting each OS on its own separate SSD works fine, but it’s hard to do when you’re using a laptop that you’re not sure whether or not it has an extra NVMe slot or even a SATA slot.

Virtual machines are my only fix.

It’s bad because they don’t want you to use it, but they made it exist so that they don’t get sued by the European Union.
