people performatively declaring they are going to Linux doesn’t bother me at all. its good press, builds its reputation. people try new things for deep reasons sometimes, but also for casual curiosity and fashion following, and that’s ok.

I don’t understand why these butthurt republicans don’t just start voting against trump. Like somehow the only options are toe the party line or resign.


this guy theorizes a presidential run is the reason. why would she need to quit congress to do that though?


Resigning just doesn’t make sense to me. I’m thinking either very credible death threats, or they have something on her.


With a machine like that, you’re firmly in the mainstream of linux. Almost any distro will run well on it, so selection is a matter of taste.
Debian is a solid, conservative option, though they have a reputation of lagging behind other distros in terms of software versions. I do like arch, their wiki is first rate. It has the reputation of being finicky but I’ve always found it pretty straightforward. Great for the extensive docs and not trying to insulate you from the system.
I personally would avoid ubuntu these days, they seem to be leaning into the Ubuntu Way for things like installing software. A bit lock-in ish for me.
FWIW I’m running nixos on my thinkpads, works great. Nixos is not to be undertaken lightly, there’s a lot to learn and docs are meh. Stability is second to none, and the declarative configuration management makes it great for easing into devops.
I used to model in openSCAD and do tool paths in fusion. Good combo for the most part, but there were some issues like cutting slots that never worked well; the slot always had to be wider than the tool. Fusion works better on its own proprietary models than on STLs.
OpenSCAD is super fun and I have built things in it too. It is just for the modeling and doesn’t do tool path stuff like fusion360; but I think you could import models into freeCAD and do tool paths there.
some people really have an eye for sparkles

I like the firefox AI translation because it doesn’t send the text to fucking google. It translates it on my machine, and its shitty but good enough most of the time.
to me the main difference was having to use a different package manager. so no biggie really. and arch has an awesome wiki. the documentation made things too easy so now I use nixos BTW
Dad are you making memes again?


sounds like a better solution is don’t use docusign


google text entry and AI assist/training


Age 57 here. We kind of blobbed up a bit during the pandemic. About a 18 months ago we started walking every day at lunch, about 2.5 miles. Not huge distance but just being consistent with it I think has helped us a lot. We did a few hikes this year that I don’t think we could have done (or not without more injury risk) without the consistent walking.
For me tendonitis has been a thing. Got my first case of it in my late 20s and have had several bouts of it since - achilles, hip flexors, wrist, etc. Learning to recognize that as a problem and what to do to recover is important, as repetitive stress injuries can keep you from doing a lot of things.


Did the billionaires really lose the fight over the DNC? I remain unconvinced because of these linked articles. No I’m not waiting for billionaire media to convince me or anyone. I’m not an idiot.
I’m saying if its the case that the DNC is trustworthy and not actually rooting for Schumer’s surrender monkey tactics, its important that that is communicated somehow to voters. But an interview or press release is not going to cut it. How about they provide evidence by taking some action, like cutting Schumer and the rest off from campaign funds? Or something.


Personally I’ve been assuming that the DNC is the same as the one that screwed Bernie in 2016. If that’s not so then its really important to make that a news item. This current fiasco is going to make people want to abandon the Democrats as a rallying point.


How does he not have a corrupt DNC behind him?
I use Jerboa, is fine. Haven’t tried anything else so don’t know what I might be missing.
