I always liked TeamSpeak, is that still around?

I feel like this kind of implies that things will get back to the way they were before, once all the bullshit is “done”. Not so sure about that

Deluge and Surfshark VPN

What an annoying position to be in, needing software updates for your fucking car. Then what, you’ll have to replace it after three years because it won’t get any new security patches anymore?

If it helps, I’m running PopOS on a Ryzen-powered Lenovo laptop (Yoga 6) with integrated graphics. No issues whatsoever, so far

Everything by Virgin is shit. I don’t understand why they’re so big

I recently made the switch back to Linux, to Pop! OS, and I’ve never had such a smooth experience before. It’s currently using GNOME as its desktop environment, which I find a bit shit in general, but they’ve modified it enough so that it’s user friendly and intuitive. It has an “app store” as well that you can use to check for and run updates, search software etc. If you have a big screen, the window tiling function is awesome. Highly recommend you have a look at it!

NVIDIA is trash anyway so no reason to buy one regardless of OS

AMD gang!

In all honesty, I think it has gotten better over the last few years and it should be less of a headache now to use NVIDIA cards, I guess that depends on the OS though

How are people feeling about Deezer?

I don’t like that their 14" model only comes with intel CPUs

I’m running PopOS (with GNOME+Cosmic) on my Yoga 6, works without any issues so far

I’ve only used it to write cover letters for me. I tried to also use it to write some code but it would just cycle through the same 5 wrong solutions it could think of, telling me “I’ve fixed the problem now”

Ugh I can’t wait for PopOs to move to Cosmic

CEOs rarely end up with nothing, unfortunately

Sounds quite a lot like working in science actually. Just better paid, I’d imagine

Sounds like a horrific, stressful job. How do you cope with that?

Thing is, the next MAGA/QAnon nutter will just tell people that it’s the lib’s fault and they will eat it up and vote for the next unhinged, cleptocratic sociopath. Or maybe by then the US will have gone full Russia and just openly manipulate the elections

I think this is pretty standard procedure no? Lots of small companies are spin-outs from universities

No

Why do you need a fusion reactor for electrolysis?
