Thank god it’s not Alot, because

Japan has had a “Lost Decade” of economic stagnation since the 1990s.

America stands alone. They know what they did.

I think you’re refering to this. The community appears to be in the process of setting up their own association and eventually the infrastructure and assets will be transferred to them. We’ll see how that shakes out.

Wait, again?

When I got back to Linux some years back, I tried using GNOME because I had had good experiences with GNOME 2. Modern GNOME is awful, terribly opinionated and - in my view - has actual usability issues. Every interaction with the DE felt like pulling teeth and I didn’t enjoy it one bit. GNOME Classic was better, but even that never felt quite right. At the time I wanted to use Wayland and therefore had limited options, so for the first time ever I tried Plasma, and I immediately found it to my liking. With only a few small cosmetic tweaks it felt like home. Things made sense to me and everything was where it should be - more or less; nothing’s perfect. Since then I’ve looked at other options, but Plasma usually has one feature or another that alternative desktops lack or struggle with. So for now I’m sticking with Plasma, and I have no real reason to look elsewhere.

To be sure, I don’t hate on anyone who prefers GNOME, it’s just not my cup of tea. Not by a long shot. Use what works for your use case.

I fucking had to keep pushing back buying some more RAM. Yeah, that was a great move. Now I can only hope the bubble bursts and prices crash.

I mean, I get by fine with the RAM I have. I don’t need much. It’s the principle of the thing, you know? Sometimes being financially responsible and careful sucks.

I think the lawsuit was with PS3, not PS2.

It’s a copy of Linux for Sony’s Playstation 2 console. Yes, it was a real thing.

Should probably just block that whole privacy nightmare of a site, to be honest.

Ah, the old classics.

I see you are not familiar with sea cows.

Spectravideo and NES for me.

Posteo is affordable and, at least to my liking, private enough.

My body is ready.

People really fail to understand what a truly colossal undertaking a site like YouTube is. It’s a technological wonder that they are able to process that much data and serve it so efficiently. Hate YouTube all you want, I do, but the engineers at Google are fucking magicians.

Perfectly true. It would’ve been nice, if it wasn’t so inherently abusable. We can’t have nice things.

You sweet summer child, back in my day YouTube had a five star rating system and video response functionality.

He didn’t say that. Did he say that? He said that, didn’t he.

The US has had some terrible Presidents, but fuck me sideways, this fucking guy. The man’s functionally illiterate. Worse, he’s profoundly dum.
