I love that he said this, the guy who thinks the media are all liars. What a buffoon.

I can’t think of time where I needed anything more than Mint for a desktop. It’s been on at least one device in my house since 2010.

And even the Desktops with Bluetooth can often have in incompatible version for file transfers. Bluetooth is a mess.

It’s weird to not see any posts about Azure. I remember watching a keynote from Microsoft’s CEO several years ago where he explicitly said the company’s focus was on Azure and cloud applications, and that the role of Windows was simply to get you there. That’s it. This is also inline with comments about Win7 being the last good OS because that’s about when the transition started.

This is what I do because my sites aren’t complicated enough to warrant a build system. Personally I think most websites out there are over-engineered. Example: a Discord friend made a React site that displays stats from a gaming server. It looks nice, but you literally can’t hyperlink to any of the data, it can only be loaded dynamically and only looks coherent on a phone in portrait mode. There are a lot of people following trends (some good trends) but without really thinking about why.

Holy cow, it’s finally here. Not only that, I really like the way it looks in the layers panel. I thought they would just copy Krita filter layers, but this implementation seems smarter.

Not who you replied to, but I’ve been using DuckDuckGo for years knowing it’s limitations and would occasionally use Google if I needed more specific search results, however, these days Google Search is about the same as DDG and (even as a fan) I have to admit DDG was never and is not a spectacular search engine. Honestly, the thing that surprises me most is that when I get inadequate results from DDG and try Google, the results are basically the same. Not a great look for Google.

This is what I do. Also, I mostly access reddit from a RSS feed so I don’t even really visit the site much. I read everything I want in my feed reader, and maybe look at the comments on the site if a particular post looks interesting. Never logged in, never comment, never vote on a post.

It’s great how Some More News is so consistent. I can only think of a few episodes where they seemed to be stretching for content on a topic.
