I disable it. Also spell checking and grammar checking and all that shit. Drives me mad.

I started with Slackware in 96 then was on a friend’s Debian server in like 98. I lost the friend account so I switched to Ubuntu in like… 08 mainly because that’s what Digital Ocean offered in its prebuilt stacks, I didn’t really have an opinion. Switched to Linux on the desktop only last year, went with Mint since I’d gotten used to Ubuntu. I’m happy, don’t feel the need to do anything else really. I have a Steam Deck so obviously I’ve used SteamOS, not really a fan of the immutable thing.

Yep not to mention that if you manage to have a good garden when SHTF you’re just the first target for the raiders.

There is an excellent, practical book about surviving economic collapse by someone who went through it in Argentina.

As with most scifi shows of this era, it really hits its stride in season 3. Hang in there, the first two seasons aren’t horrible, you get to know the characters and the lore and it sets you up for greatness.

To me your comment brings to mind the underlying problem, which is: your action won’t matter because of the overwhelming behavior of the herd. The masses can’t comprehend/don’t care and profitability is absolutely not tied to consumer satisfaction anymore.

The only winning move is not to play. Buy older models before this idiocy started. My vehicle is 2011 my SO’s is 2007.

This is all just to increase the profit margins for insurance.

There seems to be a neverending supply of complaints about the size and reach of the Fediverse and I’m just sitting here thinking this is about all the attention I’d like it to ever get. This is fucking nice. Doesn’t monopolize your whole day, always has at least some fresh content, users are free with the upvotes and discourse is downright civil most of the time. Does anybody really want this place to be like Reddit or Instagram?

Truth.

Yeah this is the tits. I also like it with some celery and a tiny bit of red onion and finely chopped walnuts - sweet/savory, so so good.

This is my shocked Pikachu face. Jokes on them, I haven’t used Facebook since I deleted it with prejudice in 2007.
