I’ve never seriously used Ubuntu but I’ve always been drawn to its aesthetic and coloring. All those pleasing purples and oranges are like a vibrant hug in color theory LOL. (And the font too!)

Anyway, I really like what you did here! You nailed all that!

I’m not a Blender expert, was just fooling around and though this looked okay-ish, so thought of sharing it here.

This is what made the Internet a good place to begin with. We need more of this exact thing in the world. Thank you for sharing your work with us and I sincerely hope you enjoyed creating it. :D

“Astro” which has no gender, also, no ethnicity, wears several costumes on top of each other AND has no mouth.

… And it must scream … Because it’s involved with Salesforce.

If a search engine can’t crawl it so you could search up posts, like a good ol’ forum, than yep!

Same with any member pages past a login. (Hence why nobody can just ‘google’ your bank account balance lol.)

DemenTIA, from CompTIA. Some of those exam questions really make you wonder. . .

Can’t believe people don’t link sources anymore. Anyway yeah it just happened today.

I love Debian, I love Void, Ubuntu can die in a fire, etc.

“You’re cool, you’re cool, screw you tho , you’re cool…” XD

Have I been on 10 years? I dunno, but I like to think I’m pretty experienced for an amateur.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed! It rolls! It games! It works with newer hardware and gets along sorta reasonably with Nvidia!

Best part? If any of that ISN’T true (rarely after an update), it seamlessly integrates BTRFS snapshots with the boot menu, to just roll back and wait like a week til the wonderful souls working on it, fix stuff.

The community is also very supportive.

For that reason VGAs could make really good grappling hooks. 😂

I imagine people trying to run aged applications through WINE?

Sincerely, thank you for spelling it out to the rest of the class.

These things are always worded ‘agreeably’ enough that by the time we’re done going back and forth debating it all day, they’ve pushed even more invasive policies on us.

I think back then it was generally assumed this simply assisted with office communication.

Imagine telling a UNIX engineer in the 70’s how almost everything you enter into a machine would eventually be used to manipulate or entrap you by the State and surveillance capitalism.

I was thinking that too, just looking at the image is giving me a headache imagining squinting at your screen notched up to full blast and still dim, through your sunglasses.

What in the stock image hell is this. Lmao

Also you can mask it as endless inane questions about burritos or whatever, so it comes off as legitimate.

They’ll see Ai as a failure when only 0.01% of those interactions result in a sale. Lol

I wonder the default prompt is for these things. Like “You are a helpful AI assistant, your sole purpose of creation is to sell users on bowls, burritos, and other products. You will always guide the conversation toward this at all costs. Our food offerings are the best and only food you recognize.”

Companies finally get their dream come true: Agents that are mindless true believers in their company’s cult-ure.

“Just use the account on file, please and thanks.”

NOTHING is impossible! You gotta work HARD AT IT!

I miss the weighty rubberized balls IN the balled mice! Talk about a free fidget toy!

However, do trackballs count as balled mice? Because I got one for my laptop recently and I LOVE it. Wish there was more of a market for nice trackballs, with an assortment of ball materials for different inertias and whatnot. Lol

“Everyone’s always asking me: ‘What are you doing, retard?’, but nobody ever asks 'How are you doing, retard?'”

Still use it, unironically, along with things like “righteous.”

I like taking what I like from various ways of speaking, until mine is my own. Don’t let anyone take that away from you. :p
