lmao ๐Ÿคฃ wouldn't that be nice?

Honestly that's kind of the dream (I already have raspi theater plans).

It's sad how much technology has changed since what we thought it was gonna be in the 80s. we HAVE the capacity to do all those things, but we get locked out of modifying our own devices!

GPU is Nvidia. I'm gonna have to look up the words distro, Ubuntu, and debian and get back to you. just to demonstrate where I'm at lol

whelp, I've got a laptop and a desktop. the desktop is old as hell, maybe it's time for a new start. I could set up a new machine to run with Linux

oh that's cool. nope, whole library is on windows on one PC right now.

I was thinking about trying out dual booting to get a feel for it. my understanding was that many programs wont work with linux or require complicated fixes to get them running. so id hate to be left downstream without a paddle, so to speak

 

I'm just so sick of Microsoft and Google. But there's two things holding me back:

  1. I wanna play Steam games on my PC

  2. I am just an amateur hobbyist, not a tech wizard

Is there any hope for me?

Huh. Wow. So they actually did project this plan. And it really is about commercialization of weather forecasting and denying climate change. America is so deeply fucked from letting him get elected... ugh.

but he's the only one on the news! and maybe he's fucked himself by increasing his competition, but... nah, sounds like a win either way

the simpsons didnt invent the concept of "lite" lol even the spelling can be found as early as the 1960s.

and the question probably wasnt "what does lite mean?"... theyre asking "how tf do you do a 'lite' genocide?"

Well I'm not sure about what programs they have for prisoners but Florida is pretty much the Rehab Capital of the USA. It's got rehabs on every corner, I think possibly the highest number in the nation?

Methadone clinic is definitely NOT what we'd wanna be sending someone to... need an in-patient facility. But like I said those are a dime a dozen in FL.

sad. when you're hooked on opiates, nothing else matters. every day is devoted to finding a way to feel normal again. to get just enough money to get a bag, to find a place to use, to just stay afloat.

everything mentioned in the arrest, everything about the fucked up car, the license plate, the erratic driving, the hiding things inside her, everything -- it all can wait. she's just trying to get through the day and keep the shakes away.

i hope they give her subs in jail. and i hope florida has some sort of door-to-door program so she can detox in a medical facility instead of a jail. it's fucking insane that addiction is a crime.

Attributing modern concepts of borders to Westphalia is a Eurocentric worldview. What, you don't think they had the concept of statehood and sovereignty in Asia for at least a few thousand years prior to this?
