I have a decidated, dirty windows 10 laptop for all my windows needs.
“What windows needs do you have?”
CompTIA won’t let you take certs on Linux lol. Trust me, I tried. My professor was a fat, angry, scottish guy who also hates windows and took my side, but nothing we did made that shit work.
…and also yeah, online gaming. Fuck anticheat software.
I’m autistic and have ADHD, so things often work backwards for me. Like how I drink coffee to help me sleep.
I think it is. Again, I game on Mint and have had 0 issues with any of my games so far. Maybe he is just using older hardware or something?
Is it? I game on Mint and have had no issues so far.
Ah yes, I remember the days I used Arch. I was a younger man back then, I was so thin and heterosexual. Then one day I did an update and boofed my bootloader. I made the repairs, but I grew tired of this. I stopped liking it when my computer broke because of my own incompetence and just wanted something stable.
Now I use Mint and I’m fat and gay.
I use Mint btw.
This is a good start, but I feel we can expand it.
“What meme do you detest most?”
“This meme.”
“How contrarian.”
“I care not for pithy virtues or vices. I simply wish for entertainment.”
“Your inability to introspect will drown you in an ocean of indifference.”
But yeah, overall good meme. Good out of ten.
There are Linux distributions where you never need to touch the command line unless you’re doing advanced stuff.
Yeah, this is why I use Mint.
I just popped a perky.
Is it really praxis tho? Like it is just being a good guardian to my niece and her friends. I get it to an extent that ‘ads are the price you pay for using a service for free’ but to what end? Google is a massive company and should vet the advertisements they allow a lot more.
The fact children are getting highly sexual ads is a failure on their part and I see blocking ads as a fair reprisal to them until they can sort themselves out. It’s my civil disobedience as a consumer. Like especially these days with how massively invasive ads have become.
I’ve seen my niece and her friends get incredibly sexual ads on their YT before. Taught them both how to install adblock even on an iPhone and managed to make them not see that shit anymore. Mind you, my niece and her friends are FOURTEEN!
I felt like such an adult when they were getting excited that Fandom didn’t have ads anymore when I showed them what a DNS sinkhole is. This is what it means to be an adult. To use your wisdom to help the new generation navigate theirs.
For poops, you need to upgrade to FlushMe Pro which is $200 monthly.
It’s fucking shit. I went that “building your own router” thing but had no idea how to do it. I had an old Mac Mini lying around and so turned that into my router by flashing OPNsense on it and ran into issue after issue.
Here’s the biggest issue I had that I know some of you were thinking but I wasn’t at the time. OPNsense is built on FreeBSD, which lacks proper support for Apple shit, so the Mac got mad at me every time I tried to flash it. So then I got an idea. Built the router inside a VM in the Mac Mini!
Believe it or not, this actually all went pretty well of getting a vRouter inside of a mac computer and having the Local LLM, I uses Google Gemma tuned to Hermes running Ollama on it, but ran into an issue of the AI agent being painfully, agonizingly slow and revving up my tormented Mac Mini every fucking time I asked it to do anything.
This is because Apple bullshit. I am not qualified enough to answer that, I’m a help desk guy so 50% of the time I talk about IT stuff, I’m confidently bullshitting. Anyways, I got oLMX, gave the local AI agent my API kets to my Mac Mini vRouter, and any time I need anything I can just go into the Mac itself as a computer and talk to it.
I am still trying to find out how to do that thing where you like message the agent through some messaging app as that I have 0 idea how to do. Talking to it through Signal would make my life a lot easier, but sometimes you grow as a person when you reject convenience and make your own life harder.
You mean I can read books and take classes on eating ass!?
I assume their answer is taking the piss, but seriously tho. Local LLMs are amazing. I have one in my router whenever I need anything. Using them shows just how much you give away when you use cloud based ones because they will tell you what data they collect.
I waste no water and no electricity but my own and it feels good.
Such is life. Nah, I still use linux and now rather than dualbooting I have a dedicated DIRTY windows computer for all my online gaming and windows needs.
Can you teach a package manager how to love?
Feels nice to wake up to good news for once.
