What happened? Did they kick your dog or something?

What’s better? KDE? Or GNOME?

Cinnamon.

Nah just kidding. What happens is that you use enough different OSes and DEs for enough time and you start to see through the matrix. You realize they’re all just visual wrappers for the underlying systems that do the real work, and the DEs don’t really matter. All the major ones are good enough. And when they don’t work, that’s when you use command line. Then eventually, after doing that enough times, you say “fuck it all, get this GUI out of my way” and just start using CLI for everything.

I’m quite lactose intolerant and don’t handle cabbage well either.

Remaining instructions unclear; banana stuck in rectum.

That’s an interesting question and one that’s worth exploring. Reddit certainly has been the source of many homegrown memes, common retorts, and witticisms used across the web. But here, you can try switching to Linux. Download various distros for free and try out combinations of release cycle, built-in apps, and desktop environment to find your favorite.

Right? That’s exactly why I give my business automations names like SupaWubbaDubbaHappyTimeAuthyWauthyTeeHeeSecurityWorkflow.

Protons. As in protons, How many. On a weird logarithmic scale with 7 in the middle, of course.

Ooh, do Harry S. Truman vs Harry R. Truman next!

My actual favorite is electric guitar followed by violin, and I’ll gladly expound, but those have already been mentioned.

So for this comment I’ll go with handpan drum. Those sound so amazing and soothing to me.

About a month ago I watched a 2-hour video covering the entire history of the Germany basically from the neolithic onwards. So yeah I’m aware of the major major geopolitical changes (HRE from its beginnings under Charlemagne, Prussia vs Austria-Hungary, German Empire under Bismarck, etc).

But that wasn’t even enough time to cover much about the sentiments of individual regions at different points in history. So that’s interesting, thanks!

I’m curious, how much of that longing for the old kingdom was driven by nobility or wealthy merchants vs. the working-class? And how much was economic vs cultural?

Interesting comment! I knew most of that, but didn’t realize how close Bavaria came to independence.

I’m hoping to visit southern Deutschland later this summer, and go all the way from the Schwarzwald to the Königsee. Everyone seems to say Neuschwanstein is a tourist trap so I intend to skip it (don’t care for crowds anyway), but yeah the Füssen area looks great for a hike.

You still think it’s worth visiting the Schloss itself, when I could be spending that time on the Bodensee or atop the Zugspitze?

I mean, that would work once or twice, but after that I don’t think remaining war criminals would agree to the deal, knowing their predecessors were executed.

Ok but was it a true penguin, or a false penguin like all the extant species today?

Ok, glad to be wrong there and more than happy to blame Windows then. I ditched it completely a couple years ago and I’ve been enjoying Linux gaming ever since.

I don’t know the business negotiations of all that. But if you watch the video, Phawx basically uses one single command to lower the wattage on his Windows handheld and instantly triple the expected battery life. The underlying OS clearly supports it. Seems to me like the AMD driver just isn’t detecting that the game has light power needs and so isn’t throttling like it should.

I’m mildly allergic so yeah they will fuck me up.

If I’m in an enclosed space with one (e.g. car) I’ll start a sneezing fit. And I assume if I eat one my mouth will itch or swell (not even gonna attempt it).

This quick video from The Phawx seems to show that the battery performance difference isn’t actually inherent to Windows, but rather that the GPU drivers don’t throttle down the TDP when they should.

Windows has plenty of other issues but it seems any frustration about this specifically should be pointed at AMD.

My sister in law recently quipped that “Trees are a social construct” and at first I thought she was just being glib but now I can’t get that statement out of my head.
