Well, this is old news. This came out last month.

Never, ever, ever do more effort than is required.

I have used rpms, AppImages, Flatpaks, and source. I have even used a snap or two when I had no other choice.

If you can’t work with them all, can you even say you Linux Bro?

My pie chart of blame looks more like 90%/10%. Where if I simply set something down, even with the need to use it immediately, I lose it.

I rely heavily on my Wife to find things for me. Without her, I would lose my head.

It often is. Teachers understand those kids need to have something that they can call their own. Every generation does these things with language.

But I’m sure there are some teachers out there that foolishly try to squash the words.

I taught math for a couple of years in my local rural school. The fastest way to get kids to stop using certain annoying words or phrases was to start using them myself. It absolutely ruined the vibe they were going for. Particularity if you used them wrong.

Still, it seems kids need that type of ‘creative’ outlet.

Good Luck out there! Keep your sanity! I’m pulling for you!

Human drivers struggle with edge cases also. I’ve seen a lot you drive, and as an old medic who has done his share of MV accidents, I can tell you y’all ain’t that good at it.

While I have no dog in this hunt, all any self driving vehicle needs to be is just a bit better than a human one to be an improvement and a net win, (never let perfect be the enemy of good enough). And historically, as soon as any new technology becomes affordable, humans adopt it and use the snot out of it. The problem is, humans aren’t very good at projecting future harm that any new tech tends to drag along with it.

With out Bezo’s name recognition very, very few would have heard about Slate and their little pickup/SUV. That’s a level of advertisement that money simply can’t buy as a startup. We certainly wouldn’t be talking about them without Bezos’ name being attached to them. And they certainly wouldn’t have access to the investors and financial doors his name can easily open.

I have. Then I realize Slate doesn’t get a chance to change vehicular design without him.

No US president is a peace dove. Between supporting proxie wars to police actions to declared war, they all end up getting people killed by bombs.

I can’t ever remember a Gnome 3 install that ran slow for me. But I can always feel a heaviness to Gnome3 that bothers me. It’s like an unseen presence that feels like something is wrong.

Yeah, KDE was rough in the early days thanks to QT. But things slowly worked themselves out. While I don’t change much with KDE, I do change a few minor things, mostly I make sure the capslock is off and single click to open is on and I got to have that 3D box to switch my desktops. But I do like the power of easy choice KDE offers.

Still I do get nostalgic for the old Gnome2 days. So I have Cinnamon DE installed on a low powered mini desktop. And it runs amazingly well.

I never understood it either. I was a user of Gnome until Gnome 3 showed up and I decided to nope out of there. It was a simple process of trying few different DE’s and I have settled on KDE and Cinnamon for when I want that old timey Gnome feeling.

It wasn’t hard to switch at all.

The only ads I see are on a local sports podcast. The advertisers are all local businesses. From restaurants to local credit unions. And those I’m fine with.

They understand just how hard it would be to comply. And that’s the point. Make it hard enough to meet the requirements to not make worth a business’ while to comply. And the politicians can say “We didn’t ban PornHub. They blocked you from access.”

It’s a common tool both the left and right use to control behaviors. Governments around the world do this all the time.

I think that’s often the case for anyone that has spent enough time using Linux. After 20 years, I just can’t be bothered with needing to be all that proactive in managing any distro. I just want to use the bloody stupid box. I’m enjoying using Aurora right now. Atomic distros require even less effort from me.

Look at Ol’ Diamond Jim over there with his $100 skillets!

I got 2 cast iron frying pans, a 6qt dutch oven, a 2 burner flat iron, and one cast iron 2qt kettle. I ain’t got $50 into the whole lot of them. Vintage cast iron is cheap because it will last for multiple generations and there is lots of it floating around to be had on the cheap.

And if you ain’t got 5 minutes to clean a cast iron frying pan, then no $10 nuclear glow int the dark Walmart special is going to do any better in your care. I highly recommend you find someone to cook for you. Before you give yourself food poisoning.

Unless there is a literal hole rusted through it, grab some sand paper and sand the rust off of it. It’s just iron. I’ve done it many times to rescue an old skillet or Dutch Oven.

Short of taking a sledgehammer to it, it’s nigh on impossible to destroy cast iron cooking pans.
