I don’t keep pictures like that on me, and I don’t feel like doing a google search for you. Travel blue ridge parkway or skyline drive, or any back road in the Appalachians and you will see what happens when a ten point meets metal.

Would continually run into disconnect issues with Ubuntu and Debian with all my Bluetooth devices. Got tired of tinkering with it.

You have to know what the question is first

Honestly, I’m surprised the car was still in one piece. I’ve seen semi-trucks disintegrate after hitting a dear.

I gave up on Bluetooth and Linux, made sure the wireless peripherals I wanted had 2.4ghz dongles. Been using Logitech 2.4ghz lightspeed for a while. Dongle is plugged into a hub mounted under the desk. Use piper to get all my Logitech mouse features. No complaints.

Jump ship. Just know, windows will pull you back in, especially if you work in corporate/office work. I was doing my work from home on Linux for two years straight, then my work mandated windows 11 for everyone. It’s been a nightmare. I just want my xfce!

Very good Joshua

There is no difference, flat-earth was the test. It showed that with little effort duping people online is easy because our educational system does not teach critical thinking.

Becoming??? It has been for almost a decade. Anyone else remember the idiocy of flat-earthers??

I was a terrible typer as a kid, two finger hunt and pecker. Got a job that necessitated fast typing while listening or reading. I learned how to touch type, or fake it enough, really quick. Humans are adaptable, that’s why we are everywhere, they just need the motivation to learn the skill.

“Brought to you by Carls Jr”

That statement alone says he is a candidate to be bought. If Oscar Meyer gave him a billion dollars, I’m sure he would have no choice but to make sure hot dogs are served as the only protein in grocery stores.

No shit, because we all see that AI is just technospeak for “harvest all your info”.

So if I see it on the “open web”, I’m free to use it however I please? Oh, I get thrown in jail and everything I own taken away.

If companies are people per “citizens united”, why doesn’t the same apply to them?

This is exactly what I was thinking. There are plenty of smart people that work there that would have said something before release. They were told to not rock the boat by the yes men and now Microsoft has to backpedal and pretend no one there thought about THOSE implications.

He touches on my major issue with all these companies, data mining without compensating the people that created that data. I have to pay for the operating system, get served ads, AND you get to make extra money off my information too? This kind of shenanigans would be tolerable with a free OS, or maybe one that compensated you like brave browser. The blatant fleecing of the consumer here is sickening. I’m glad data mining your screenshots is the last straw for people.

How bout rocm support for your own inference cards? Got an instinct mi25 I can’t do a damn thing with because it’s the only instinct card rocm does not support.

ChatGPT now just says “read the docs!” To every question

Don’t install on your main rig over your main hard drive. Don’t obliterate your windows drive, that will ease a lot of the intimidation, knowing you can always go back. Getting a cheep laptop or thin client to try distros out on will elevate that intimidation as well.

Start with what you have heard of and have been recommended repeatedly, Mint, popOS, Ubuntu, all great distros to learn on, have great documentation.

Also, read the docs. They are dry and long, but will always have the solution.

Let me see if I can use windows without opening the start menu now
