If you use the terminal and have a tendency to fat finger commands, I would recommend “The Fuck”.

It always makes me smile to type fuck into the terminal. 🙂

I always turn on LUKS during install. The only exceptions are when I’m doing tests of different distros on my machine that I lovingly call “FuckAround”.

It really is the best way to find out.

Mine was that I hate corporations. That’s it. That’s literally all that I needed to figure out Linux.

That’s the reason I log into Facebook like once every week or two.

I like to make sure someone didn’t die, and I miss the funeral.

I follow KDE and Gnome.

#1 was true more in the late 90s to early 00s. The operating system has matured quite a bit since then.

I love Debian, but I hear a lot of people suggesting Linux Mint for new users. If you’re afraid of committing to a change, grab a cheap used system to try it out. Just know that if you have better hardware, itbwill really shine.

Yeah, I worry about that with all the LLM slop.

Yeah, that’s my line of thought.

I choose my town co-op that doesn’t sell my info, and doesn’t care that I torrent. 🙂

Meanwhile, Google slurps up all your data to send you better ads.

Maybe I phrased it wrong?

Open source licenses came about because of copyrights. If people didn’t try to hoard information, the GPL never would have been needed in the first place.

Part of the reason I was skeptical about Bluesky.

Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Yeah, that’s about what I expect from a billionaire.

That’s a perspective that I had considered.

Rules for thee, but not for me.

Neither heaven nor hell exist, so you can all stop worrying about them.

Enjoy your life because it’s the only one you get.

You can also use a dedicated system for pirated games. My wife knows if I’m playing a legit game based on which computer I’m using. 😅

I’ve thought they were the same thing all these years.

Do people even need virtual memory these days?

Also, isn’t it harmful to SSDs?
