Why not LTSC?
Why do you have a second namespace on your external drive?
What matrix app for Android and desktop Linux? In my experience they all have deal breaker bugs.
I would have said the judicial systems handling of copyright cases, but alright. Who needs IP anyway?
Genuine leather is just about the opposite of what you'd think
Can you explain that one? I like leather, it just requires maintenance.
Yes, attitude. Thanks.
I don't understand how this is possible, two parents that use Linux and he thinks Windows is the way to go? Kids in school are actually idiots.
That said, I can't get any of my family to use Linux. My friend tried for a while but asked me to put Windows 10 LTSC on it instead, because he wanted to click "Install" on Steam without worrying about messing with Proton settings and checking ProtonDB, which is reasonable. Some just don't want to do the extra work, I hope some day that operating systems on our favorite kernel make it easy for plebians to use.
Room temperature
I respect base 10/metric, base 12/imperial is braindead, and think the US has a lower than average self awareness and introspection.
Metric (aka normal) is a worldwide standard. Inches and feet are not (really). Celsius is Kevin with an offset, which is why it makes more sense.
I've grown up enough to understand that, but it still really bothers me how ignorant people are. You could go further: no curiosity, no adventure, no hobbies, and total lack of effort in almost every facet of life.
People just like to stagnate, and it shows in almost every situation. Not even technology related things, but everything.
My teenage little brother, as much as I love him, is kind of disappointing. He doesn't do anything but play Roblox. When he is grounded (often) he elects to take pictures of his feet and say stupid things to his "friends" instead of holding real conversations.
I've never been able to get him interested in anything that requires a modicum of effort, except for modded Minecraft. He likes the machines, and has built cool things, so I know he has the smarts, but he doesn't have the attention span or the patience to troubleshoot them if they don't work the first time. He gives up and starts doom scrolling social media. He has expensive shoes, the latest iPhone, and perms his hair. My mother encouraged this vapid pretty boy personality he's adopted, and I don't know why, he wasn't like that when he was younger.
He tries to make fun of me for having and Android phone and using Linux, and I explain to him that software development is what I do for a living and as a hobby. Look, I never ever ever see an ad, anywhere. He thinks AirPods sound good, and calls all earbuds "AirPods".
And he's not the only one, I'm tutoring a kid around his age for programming and math. This kid will answer "I don't know" to every single question, and when I check every 5 minutes to make sure he follows, he is obviously preoccupied.
When I was their age, I hated school just as much as any other kid (and I still think it needs serious reform because it might cause this kind of damage that I'm describing) but I still spent all of my free time either outside trying to make explosives, reading, or programming.
I do not understand the lazy I see all around me.
