aggressively offering free tech support for new Linux users

no really hmu I did Windows tech support and sysadmin shit for like 10 years 🤘 I'll jump on a call just dm me
every political compass test I've taken in the past 15 years has put me just right of center and 75% libertarian

but the delta between me and AOC is much, MUCH smaller than whatever the fuck is occupying congress right now

can we take a moment to appreciate the sheer audacity of "I can't fit a wholeass swimming pool in to the studio so I'm gonna half fill a kiddy pool instead"?

"checkmate" is a pretty bold claim from an administration that somehow failed to indict a ham sandwich

guy isn't even in "check" yet. I'll put $20 down on another no bill.

yeah this post is mistaking fear with excitement lol

oh no I'm gonna stuck in my house and can't drive anywhere for 3 days whatever shall I do?

they sure are talking out both sides of their mouth here huh?

$110/person/week is a brutal amount to pay for groceries... that was our weekly budget for our family of 3 just a few years ago 🫠

I swear I'm slowly becoming vegetarian just because I can't bring myself to pay for meat

even the LLMs can be useful. parsing unstructured data is pretty crazy. like, searching emails is way better using LLMs vs simple keywords

but then it gets shoehorned in to the most nonsensical shit

I saw a goddam fridge with "AI" in it. unless it can tell me I'm out of milk then wtf is it for??

oh but if you run in to any snags or have any questions please do reply/dm me :)

I'm probably more willing to fix *your* bootloader than my own at this point lmao
January 21, 2026 at 5:08 AM
honestly as a "Linux native" I'd agree. my boot menu has been screwed up for like a year now 😝 I don't even dual boot - I just can't be assed to fix it.

if you can format the whole drive and send it that's WAY easier...

and like you said, don't like it? install Windows again 🤷 keep it simple

the way Hannity's mic is mixed SO MUCH LOUDER was fucking infuriating

and even then he bitched out lmao

imagine running out of ways to talk over somebody with a 20db advantage 🫠

"ackshually" (sorry) this is in fact one of the few things modern AI is very good at

it has fascinating implications for hearing aids, especially since the models that can identify and separate multiple speakers from an audio stream are surprisingly small

don't make the same mistake I did and scroll through to see if it's a satire account

he's actually fucking stupid. and aware of it.

textbook case of The Rule of Goats

The Rule of Goats is this:

If you fuck a goat, you’re a goatfucker. It doesn’t matter that you were fucking the goat ironically, or to troll people. You fucked a goat.

if I had a nickel for every time the tools we developed were going to replace us.... lol

and the funniest part is we've genuinely been trying to make coding easy since paper punchcards

but the code was never the hard part. it takes a weird mind that looks both ways on a one way steet...

> laissez-faire

loool my first sign that something *real* fucky was going on was in 2015 when someone I *thought* was a conservative libertarian told me "you're too much of a laissez-faire capitalist"

and as a genuine centerist it's still the strangest fucking insult I've ever received lmao
January 19, 2026 at 6:18 AM
he's so fucking normal it's almost uncanny

it's like his whole campaign is:

1) don't act like a goddam alien lizardman

2) there is no step two

I hope they nail the models. Meal Team 6 with obviously empty plate carriers. no hostler let alone spare mags. gun tucked in to their wasteband.

bonus round: you zoom in and it's a Hi-Point

yes hello based department? I need a connection to 1972

whoever codes the "2A DLC" should probably live outside the US tho.....
January 19, 2026 at 12:10 AM
if we open source it and all submit a bunch of anonymous PRs it'll be a lot harder for them to gulag us 👀
January 19, 2026 at 12:10 AM
why would you give me such wicked ideas when I have a real software developer job to do this week? 😔
January 19, 2026 at 12:09 AM
for real. I am no longer comfortable sharing a federal government with these bastards.

I don't know if we drive them out, Balkanize, or what, but I'm not having any of it

moralize all you want - I ate that crow in 2020 and it didn't taste very good
January 19, 2026 at 12:02 AM
yeah frog don't worry about it I totally won't sting you even tho I'm a scorpion let's make a deal you can trust me
January 18, 2026 at 11:59 PM
okay but we *did* start this country on "fuck the king and the church" but somehow managed to speedrun our way back in like 200 years... so....

idk we're pretty bad at this "government" thing still
