i have this conspiracy theory that the world is run by psychopaths and they’re the ones who spread all these ridiculous conspiracy theories about how it’s reptilians/the jews/the illuminati/the deep state/the NWO/the globalists/etc etc

They do this to distract from the fact that the world IS run by a secret cabal of people, but it’s basically like Psychopaths Anonymous. all the high functioning ones get together and plot about how they’re gonna scam the planet

i just do ls -R / | grep -i "common sense"

i know it’s super inefficient but i’m the only one who uses it so dude who fucking cares

according to string theory, you can see the string that started the universe with

cat ~/.zsh_history | head -n 1

GNOME Files (Nautilus) doesn’t have a setting that lets you switch between file type icons and app icons. That’s one thing that makes GNOME different from Windows. There might be a workaround, though, you could try a different file manager, but I’m not aware of one that specificall yimplements the kind of app-based icons you get with Windows

almost like it’s at the uncanny valley between AI slop and bad photoshop

yeah, i guess, but the overall thing looks like a human-made photoshop to me. i don’t see the problem with using AI generated images as long as you do the work of incorporating them into your project yourself.

thanks! it’s actually based on a true story. when i got into kali and hacker shit three years ago (i was recovering from a traumatic brain injury and was quite literally insane) i couldn’t figure out how to make the text on arch bigger so i went to linuxquestions.org

i’m just going with kali for now, but thanks! :)

dude just fuckin

 curl --data-ram @ram https://downloadmoreram.com/release/20.1

i’m just gonna go with kali. so yeah that’s the final update, i’m going with kali because it has a GUI (I like the GUI+terminal combo) and i wanna do shit with cybersec.

i checked. turns out my arch doesn’t have any font support so i just deleted the whole thing. gonna try fedora or debian

i think so too…i’m also gonna try debian (i’ve used ubuntu before)

mine doesn’t have a GUI. shit looks like what my dad coded on when he was in grad school.

i did some research and ran some greps and i think i found the problem. i’m using a serial terminal, not a framebuffer console, in other words there’s no custom font support at all. hmmmm. kind weird. well i just freed up a shit ton of space on my laptop so i’ll just download another arch and see if that one doesn’t suck

checking out setfont right now. i’m in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts and the fonts are all there, but when i try setfont it says it doesn’t work for this particulal kernel. tried a few fonts so far

ok well i installed arch just fine, no issues with getting everything up and running. i just noticed that the “make text bigger” shortcut that works for my mac terminal didn’t work with arch, so i did some googling and still couldn’t find anything

right now i think i’m just gonna go with fedora, unless you or someone else can convince me otherwise. i like the UI better and, ngl, i’m not like a whiz with software so i don’t know how to customize like every little thing. so i think fedora is a better fit for me because it looks a LOT nicer and it comes with some shit preinstalled

huh? what does this have to do with virtue signaling?

np bro i’m a master hacker so i’ll just curl it. gotta add the -EID flag so it curls it Even If Down

They’ve done studies on people’s ability to distinguish a human-made Photoshop from “AI slop”. It’s impossible. People think they can tell but they can’t, so they just assume everything is AI because they want other people online to think they’re cool and anti-capitalist
