Didn't we all end up just stealing a lot of todays shit from Xerox PARC anyway?

Fuck the slide to unlock discussion, let's talk about representing hierarchies of files in a file system as folders in a graphical environment and why the thing that shows our position on a screen is a slanted arrow.

Look, here's the publicly available repo with the cool source code i made. DO NEVER, EVER... NEVER, EVER, EVER SHARE THIS! UNDERSTOOD!

Oh look, it's the machtergreifungsplan of the nazis!

Hey Vivek,

Why do you hate so open
And keep your motives vague?

Pissing into the sink is hot... that was the kink, right?

I believe you need to set the file association within the settings of your desktop manager. If you use KDE, you can find these in the Settings panel under Applications/File Associations

In GZSZ the plot really turned bonkers, especially over the years.

Here are a few bullet points:

• Introduced gay guy
• Introduced guy that turns out to be bi
• Introduce girl so guy can learn he's bi
• Have him learn he's bi through practical experimentation
• Make him decide for one of them
• Ignore previous events until plot-convenient

Another arc that happened over the span of 1 to 2 years:

• Introduce bad guy for established woman
• Make woman fall for bad guy
• Oh oh! Bad guy is cop!
• OH OH! BAD GUY IS ABUSIVE!
• Continue abuse until breakup
• Introduce dad for woman
• OOOOOH OOOOH! DAD IS ACTUALLY STALKER!
• Bad somehow redeems himself
• Bad guy ends up throwing dad in river, woman and other dudes are witness
• Nobody tells police
• Dad returns a few episodes later
• Bad guy loses job as cop because turns out police doesn't like coverups (unrealistic af)
• Bad guy now becomes dollar store punisher because somewhere in between all of this gang is introduced
• Bad guy stops gang
• OOOOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOO! THERE'S A CHARACTER WHO DIED AND THE CHARACTER ISN'T DEAD AFTER ALL! WE LEARN THAT THROUGH THE INTRODUCTION OF DOLLAR STORE MISTER RABBIT KILLING EXTRAS! CHARACTER GOT A CRYPTO WALLET AND MISTER RABBIT WANTS IT BACK!
• BAD GUY IS HERE TO SAVE THE DAY WITH A MULTI-EPISODE TACTICAL ESPIONAGE AND HACKING ARC!

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as iPad OS, is in fact, GNU/Unix/NextSTEP/Mac OS X/iPad OS, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Unix plus NextSTEP plus Mac OS X plus iPad OS. iPad OS is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another closed source component of a fully functioning Apple system made useful by the NextSTEP corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS more or less abiding to POSIX.

He is!

I think it's somewhere in cologne

I'd think that you might have been aware of the current issues within the care sector because it was basically all over the news for a long time, especially in the beginning of the pandemic when the workers said that the applause didn't pay their rent.

But then it would be shitty of me to judge someone who must've been trapped in the black forest for 2 to 3 years and still survived.

The pay has increased in May 2023 by 200€ per month. Additionally the care workers will receive up to 200€ per month until February 2024 as a compensation for inflation and a single inflation compansation payment of 1200€. Currently there are no strikes in sight so far, which could mean that the care workers can live off their wages or the raise came too late and they starved.

Here is my source: https://www.pflegen-online.de/tvoed-bis-zu-400-euro-mehr-fuer-pflegekraefte

One of the problems left is that there are so few care workers within the industry so they're still paid abysmally given how many people they have to take care of per person. Unfortunately i don't have a hard number to go with but care workers often report burnouts happening which doesn't happen in a slow job.

And the funny thing is: Why do we die for the old cunts in the parliament? Guess what, it's other old cunts sending soldiers!

Except that in case of war we wouldn't die just for them but also the other people we protect from the soldiers of the other old cunts but nevertheless we die at the behest of old cunts.

I do really like KDE. It's the first thing i install on my machines after Void. I am looking for some inspiration to really rice out KDE.

Recommendation by my gf mostly. But i can see where she comes from. The OS is very lean and runit is easy to deal with.

A disadvantage i see though is the lack of Calamares installer and XBPS. The void-installer isn't that intuitive, however it's not as tough as installing Arch manually (SomeOrdinaryGamers made a fun video about it). XBPS isn't as intuitive as APT either but apparently it's much more solid and has less potential to break the Void install. Some packages are also not available in the void repos because they are either merged into other packages for simplicity or they are simply not available. In the latter case i recommend using flatpak.

Another caveat is that while Void has an established userbase, there are so much more resources for Ubuntu and other distros. So Void isn't exactly good for a computer novice like my mom. Void has a good website with resources for common use-cases, so you're not left to your own devices entirely.

Once you're done setting up Void, you have a very snappy system. It boots fast and uses little resources. It uses 800 megabytes of RAM on my GPD Win 2, 200 of which think are from KDE. It is lean! It is so lean and it boots fast! It has a properly working standby mode which is not a given anymore these days! I can open up my GPD and it powers up reliably! Back on Windows ifound myself mashing the power button!

I installed it on another laptop, specifically a Sony VAIO Flip 15. I wanted to test it first but the VAIO didn't like booting twice from an external drive. HOLY CRAP, BLUETOOTH IS WORKING AGAIN! I KNEW WINDOWS BROKE BLUETOOTH! FUCK THEIR "muh pci powerup failed" EXCUSE! Although i had to replace the Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 with my Intel Wireless AC-7260 because Atheros cards are iffy on Linux in general. I had the Intel one laying around because i was trying to ix the Bluetooth issue caused by a Windows Update.

And Void can be loud! Both of my systems i installed Void on are louder now! Holy crap! Not sure whether it's specifically because of Void but damn! I love an OS that makes the very core stuff that i don't usually think about work better! Except for some WiFi slowdown on my Win 2 but a config tweak later it's gone. And the Atheros thing.

I initially thought Windows gaming on Linux was still not good, however it turned out that a few games i have don't like being just plonked on a system without a proper install. There is a caveat remaining but that isn't exclusive to Void and that is some weirdness when it comes to old physical Windows games. Multi-CD games aren't properly supported and some CDs aren't working too well for some reason. For example CD 2 of SimCity 4 isn't read correctly.

It's not the same as 22 years ago. What is the difference? Well, Microsoft tricks you into making Edge your default browser with every bigger update.

Windows 10: "oh uuuuh (sweats profusely) hi user-senpai. I made this cute browser, it's called edge and you would make me so happy if you used it."

Me: (looks for "No" button", sighs and then clicks "Later" button on the bottom left)

Windows 10: "oh noooo (sobs uncontrollably) can you at least import your bookmarks and stuff into edge"

Me: (clicks whatever button because that window too lacks a clear "No" button)

Windows 10: "Yaaaay! Thank you user-senpaaaaai! I promise that one day you'll have yes to Edge! I will make it the greatest browser ever!"

I'm in the process to migrate to Void Linux because of this and other issues.

EDIT: I got 3 downvotes so far and i want to say... i see you. I got the hint. The text lacks a Yandere vibe that Microsoft has going on 😄.
