Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Props to Lemmy for doing... something... with the katakana URL. Was still able to follow the link on Safari.
Even as someone herding along a few perpetually-in-progress Gentoo setups, piping curl into sh to install random stuff staggers me. I don't see how this can be taken seriously; the software and the surrounding hype complex come off as a gimmick to catfish impressionable high-schoolers who don't know any better. After reading this, I can only imagine that Omarchy is most frequently distributed out of a shoddy panel van parked at a judicially-mandated distance outside of school zones. "Hey kid, want to try some Linux?"
That's because you're thinking of Omarchy as a Linux distro, not as an open endorsement of fascism. Its goal isn't to make a usable Linux distro, its to entrench fascists into Linux and the wider FOSS ecosystem.
Like a restaurant that is a money laundering front for the mafia. You're not supposed to actually eat there, ya know?

The best pizza we had in college came from the place where the window by the front door had a spiderweb fracture and when you stood at the cash register you could see back into the kitchen where one old Italian guy was making pizza and six beefy Italian guys were standing around doing nothing.
General rules can have exceptions, is all I'm sayin'.
If you use your business to "do business" it's nice to have good catering.
sometimes crime pizza is fucking fantastic! they just let somebody’s grandpa cook and consider more expensive ingredients an investment in their cover. same idea as Capone’s soup kitchens but much easier to hide money with
