  • being asshole towards less technically adept people about linux should become something that gets you seriously shamed and even ostracized if it continues. that kind of behavior hurts ALL of us by reducing popularity of linux and this reducing developer interest in supporting linux, which also means less drivers for critical components which in turn might mean your pc just cant utilize linux.

    Personally, i have issue of internet getting randomly cut off due to too old drivers for my network adapter/chipset/not sure. The motherboard i use is one of the latest there is.

    This issue has apparently persisted for years now, according to forum posts about it. So i’m directly suffering from linux not being popular enough.

    -> Someone else would just return to windows because this is quite insuffreable even for me. But personally i’m happier with malfunctioning linux system than correctly working windows.


  • the thing is, these ‘grifters’ have insane pull on our society, even across borders. That this is even happening is result of bigger problem that should be addressed. corporations should be SEVERELY limited in their power across the globe and results of not doing so is evident all around. I think way things are going, it will either lead to things getting even worse by forcing llm to everything or there will at some point be severe backlash which likely restricts llms badly and deprives us of their positive impacts too. Or the worse case scenario is llm usage increases and things get slightly less worse, but corporations gain even bigger grip on our throats via them.








  • kävin jossain radikaali vasemmiston jutussa ja ei sielläkään porukka tiedä mikä fediversumi on, korkeintaan ehkä mastodon mutta ei sitäkään käytetä aktiivisesti. Nekin sitten jossain naamakirjassa omista jutuistaan pääasiallisesti ilmoittaa ja muuten jos haluaa tietää niin pitää vain kuulla sattumalta joltain toiselta.

    Ainakin yksi jolle lemmystä mainitsin tuntui kiinnostuneen, mutta se myös lähti keskustelusta siinä samalla niin en tiedä sitten tarkoittiko se sitä vai ei.


  • i’m somewhat confused about crop circles. lets suppose they are manmade, how do they make them so precise and apparently without leaving any footprints(assuming this, since it would be so obvious evidence).

    but if they are made by something else, what the hell are they even trying to convey? what is the point?
