On my desktops and laptops, I've been slowly migrating from Mint to EndeavourOS. Mint will always have a special place in my heart and I don't think I'll ever abandon it completely, but I've been falling in love with Endeavour lately. The Arch ecosystem had a bit of a learning curve, but once it clicked, it felt great. And then for servers, I've finally switched away from Ubuntu over to Debian. The familiar environment without all the bloat feels perfect to me.

Agreed. I know it's purely wishful thinking, but I dream of a day that our government can be somehow held accountable for war crimes, so that they might actually stop committing them.

Basically the old EA approach. They don't seem to realize that EA never restored their reputation from those days. But, I guess they don't care as long as they can show a line going ever upward for the shareholders.

As a developer, I find it pretty frustrating having to deal with constant hardware updates. By the time you get something released that takes advantage of the hardware you have, you're already at least a generation or two behind.

This past weekend, I picked up a little wooden craft kit. All the pieces were pre-cut and I just had to glue and fit things together. I put it together yesterday and I can confirm, it was the most satisfying thing I've built in ages.

I would pay good money for one of them to ask that exact question, but sadly, I'm a little too poor to buy my own SCOTUS justice. Maybe we could start a gofundme and crowdsource it?

What gets me is their whole reason for overturning Roe v Wade was because they claimed their job wasn't to legislate from the bench. The only thing the current SCOTUS does consistently is fuck the people.

My cats are my family, so they have priority over most humans. This would only be a tough situation if it were between my cats and my best friend because I consider her to be family too. But, in that case, I would say screw the "you can only save one" mentality, I'd become like a mom who can lift a car off her baby, and somehow save them all.

I finished watching it yesterday. Personally, I loved it and this is the first negative thing I've heard about it.

I'm beginning to think many of them joined up specifically for the the purpose of slaughtering children. It feels like they've even dropped the pretense of all Palestinians being Hamas - at least I don't hear them making that excuse all that much anymore. They seem to just enjoy the killing.

EDIT: Apparently military service in Israel is mandatory. I guess murdering Palestinian children en masse is just a bonus.

For me, it was Mandrake, I think it was back around 2000. I played so much Tux Racer on that machine. However, after they switched the branding to Mandriva, the OS started to run pretty poorly for me around that time. I stayed away from Linux entirely until around 10 years ago when I friend introduced me to Mint. It's been my main ever since, though I've played with others since then, like OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, and most recently, Debian and EndeavourOS.

I guess Paul Atreides will be journeying to save the world from Shinra and Sephiroth. That shit is gonna get weird.
