If you’re perpetually online, maybe? The only time you should give a shit about your chin is if you have an abnormally absent one. Like Andrew Tate for example.

Sounds like homeopathy lol
What I was trying to say was that I’m happy to be free of Microsoft’s ability to just sunset an operating system version that I liked and replace it with an even more privacy-disrespecting, ad and AI-bloated nightmare.
Nobara is at least under my control in a significant way. Windows, like so many other software solutions these days wants to treat me like cattle and I want no part in that.
#NobaraGang. I gave Mint a go a few years ago and just never really got anywhere close to replacing my Windows install.
I’ve gotten 90% of all use cases handled by Nobara at this point. The main outlier being my sim racing setup just because according to forums the drivers for all the peripherals are just really not ready for adoption yet. My sim rig will stay on Windows for now as the whole reason I invested in a proper cockpit and peripherals was to reduce the friction involved with enjoying the sims. Also, anti-cheat seems to be a no-go on Linux for now so as an iRacing enjoyer, Linux is out of the question for the time being.
That said, my entire home studio for recording (incl. Hardware peripherals), my daily driver use case and all my other gaming needs are currently met by Nobara. I’m so happy to be able to end my reliance on Microsoft.
Greeting viewers by name? Not in my fucking house. AI should be a tool to rid humanity of undesirable work. Instead its replacing humanity in every field where humanity is the main event. Why the fuck would I ever want to listen to a fucking robot while I watch the Olympics, or anything for that matter?
Buy dumb TVs. Make your next phone a Pixel and install Graphene OS. Ditch Windows/MacOS for Linux. Use ProtonMail. Run a Pi-Hole on your network. Do anything you can to take control of your digital footprint in any way.
Don’t let corporations freely suck your data dry and exploit your life for profit while force feeding you their elaborate fakery. Its impossible to insulate yourself from it all but any step towards digital privacy is the right step to take.
None of those tools has ever made a full releasable track for anyone, just like the tape machine never created music out of nowhere.
I’m not using Linux in any enterprise capacity, but the compatibility improvements I’ve seen since the last time I tried out a distro for fun are immense.
So immense infact that I’m migrating all my home studio and gaming stuff over to Linux and making it my official daily driver via Nobara.
I’m honestly amazed by how well music production software and hardware works on Linux now. I’m so relieved because I thought this whole Windows enshittification thing was just another part of my life where I seemingly have no control over being made into a product and having all of my data sold constantly.
A recent migration to GrapheneOS and this new discovery of Linux’s amazing capabilities for my use case are such a breath of fresh air. I now have the choice to reject the exploitative practices of these tech companies that have zero respect for people and that makes me happy.
The more we use and recommend Linux the more of a chance we get of first party support in the future!
Thank you for posting this crucial context for the algorithms. I didn’t even know this information was available.
100% agreed.
Shaaaaa-wing.
This is actually nuts. I watched a video breakdown of this blog post and my jaw was on the floor. Super interesting stuff.
Catherine Bach was a robo-babe.
For me, the run right after I wake up is a part of how I process being alive.
In my experience, running is meditative in nature. I don’t know what mental state I’d be in without running in my life.
Yeah, it was quite good back in the day.
The rumour I heard is that McDonalds snaked Tim’s coffee supplier so a massive shift in quality occurred that they haven’t seemed to recover from
Tim Horton’s certainly can hit the spot but the quality has been on a steady decline for about 15 years now. Their menu used to be very simple; coffee and assorted café style drinks, bakery treats, and soup and sandwich. All very simple, yet effective as the ingredients were of reasonable quality and the coffee was consistently good.
Nowadays the diversification of the menu has gotten so extreme that they can barely do any single thing right. Coffee is often burnt as machines are calibrated too hot, machines not properly rinsed after cleaning resulting in an oil slick of soap and chemicals floating in your coffer (personal experience), donuts and breads are often stale or poorly made… For years their breakfast menu’s egg was not egg at all. “Cheese and onion egg-like product” was what was on the box. Only recently have they moved to using real egg which has had a massively positive effect on the breakfast menu’s quality.
Tim’s can be good. In Canada, its often that its not. I live in a town of ~50,000. This town has more Tim Horton’s than Ottawa with over 1M people. Tim’s has a cult-like following around here. Not sure why after the years of mediocrity.
Glad you like it though. I’d love to try your Tim’s to see if there is much of a difference.
Might not be diet. Might be IBS.
Dude, don’t disparage the chihuahua. They’re the pinnacle of anxiety; something many of us can relate with.
