Oh no…

Do you see it yet?

Same, it’s fine and no joke rogan

I’m fine with property tax, but it can’t just go up every year on a %. It should be reasonable.

Oregon has awful property taxes that effectively price people out of their homes.

Boring suburban houses with $9000 annual taxes should not be a thing. Then the next year it goes up by 4%. Has to be a limit somewhere in the system.

We’re all against genocide numbnuts. It’s because you’re actively, every day doing a little bit to get even more genocide into power under the cover of trying to prevent genocide.

You’re quite awful. And you should try to be a better person, if you have the capacity to even criticize yourself.

You again … Do you get paid to praise Nazi’s or something damn…

Oooof fun, I’ve got you tagged as pro Nazi… Maybe do better tomorrow, the world could use fewer of you.

I’m guessing you are not rich enough to stop working. Maybe don’t bother trying to defend oligarchy.

I took a more aggressive approach, I bought a second drive, but I just took the old one out (laptop). I made a windows recovery USB too and just stored them together. My laptop doesn’t get firmware updates through FW update so a couple times this year I have swapped the drive back in, booted up the windows partition and updated the firmware through their stupid tool.

Even on the vendor site, this laptop only has .exe files for firmware

Battery management

I have this laptop, running Fedora with kde. It’s fine.

As someone who ran a WWIV BBS in the 90’s, this is sad. Dude was amazing.

Android Auto used to just work as an app on my phone. It was great for my bikes. Ram mount, USB 12v, sena, android auto. Everything worked great. Then Google, like they always do, turned it off. Fuck Google. I don’t need a head unit on my motorcycle when I already have a phone.

I repeat, fuck Google.

I… Don’t get it

Stop calling them elites. Call them wealth parasites

This was me, you’re talking about me. 😂 In the 90’s Linux was barely getting started but slackware was probably the main distro everyone was focused on. That was the first one I ran across. This was probably late 90’s, I don’t remember when slack first came about though.

By the time the 2000’s came around, it was basically a normal thing for people in college to have used or at least tried. Linux was in the vernacular, text books had references to it, and the famous lawsuit from SCO v IBM was in full swing. There were distro choices for days, including Gentoo which I spent literally a week getting everything compiled on an old Pentium only for it to not support some of the hardware and refuse to boot.

There was a company I believe called VA Linux that declared that year to be the year of the Linux desktop. My memory might be faulty on this one.

Loki gaming was a company that specialized in porting games to Linux, and they did a good job at it but couldn’t make money. I remember being super excited about them and did buy a few games. I was broke too so that was a real splurge for me. I feel like they launched in the 90’s (late) and crashed in the early 2000’s.
