Putting the “science” in “computer science”

I’m using a crappy HP mini PC from 2016 with just 4GB of RAM and it runs my Nextcloud with Talk that I use instead of Discord. The most limiting factor is actually my internet connection… Only 8 megabits of upload only gets you so far (it used to be 20 megabits but my ISP screwed me over)

The new FNAF movie is looking good!

Looks like it came from a GTA 3 loading screen

Oh I am, I was just worried that the webstite I was visiting would still make tracking cookies. Probably the best option is Ublock + incognito mode

No idea about that. That version of Proton was made specifically for LoL

Spear

Wait there was a workaround to play League Of Legends with a dedicated version of Proton GE

It has always been like this in my country. We have multiples of 330ml or 500ml

EDIT: I just noticed now and yeah this is false advertising

That’s what a lot of artists do (also me, but I wouldn’t call myself an artist)

Kubuntu before the SSD broke, now Debian Unstable.

Yes, if you go and see my old post I’ve had a tricky issue with Apt, but I fixed it.

I wouldn’t really reccomend Debian Unstable because it has some problems with dependencies in Apt, but it usually works if I compile software from source or install on Flatpak.

If you are courious, I ditched Kubuntu because it was pushing snaps over dpkg and do-release-upgrade had some issues, my friend managed to nuke his install TWICE by doing a release upgrade

That’s a silicon wafer

My SSD literally broke electrically and prevented the system from POSTing. It only lasted ~18 months

My favorite thing about Linux is the opennes of it.

It feels like a modern version of a Commodore 64. They give you a CLI, a manual, networking and a software repository out of the box and they just tell you: “Go do whatever you want. Learn how the kernel works and make cool stuff”

Proud Linux user since 2019.

Never broke an install to the point of non return, except when my SSD literally died

PSA: Never buy WD green SSDs

Lol. If you didn’t know, Claude just got open sourced https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/pull/41611

I want my phone to be like a computer not a federal prison, dammit

Google does not want to abolish third party app stores, they want to take control over the process of installing packages by requiring the authors to be verified by giving their personal info to Google. Also, there are still a catch to how Apple is “opening up” their iPhone ecosystem

According to Google yes, because the Play Store is the “official” way of installing software.

But personally I hate this mentality and I don’t want a centralized and controlled way of installing software

Hold on babe, I’m sideloading Firefox on my Arch install
