Most SteamOS users aren't interacting with a bash shell or anything though, they're just running steam in big picture. If it's valid to say that SteamOS introduced people to Linux because the kernel happens to be Linux, then it's equally valid to say that about Android, which has had a much larger impact than SteamOS has

Yes but I don't know if there's anyone out there who would install SteamOS on their desktop, vs just using it on steam deck. I know people in this sub certainly would, but I don't think normies would go out of their way to do so without official buy-in from Valve, and they got out of the steam machine business

Lol, obviously it's terrible that business are pulling out of the US, and in the next few months we will begin to learn what the 1970s were like, but I'm just glad I already have mine

Good thing I got mine already!

Even with SMS, idk why people expect an immediate response. My dad texts me and if I don't respond in an hour, he starts spamming me. I don't think there is a single piece of technology out there where people should expect the recipient to be constantly reachable.

I don't know why people think this is true. Just because you message me on slack doesn't mean I'm going to see or respond to it immediately.

Thailand felt very foreign, but at the same time there would randomly be things that felt very American to me there.

No because docker is not actually a VM

Docker is not a virtual machine, it's a fancy wrapper around chroot

You pick up languages much more easily when you live somewhere

Thailand is my backup

During covid, having like 2 months' worth of food was enough for me. I was able to avoid the chaos at the grocery stores, and by May of 2020, instacart had cleared up enough that I could get food delivered to me.

This is different, obviously, but having 2 months of food to avoid the initial chaos and supply shocks of a disaster is still valuable

I think women have naturally better emotional intelligence and I don't think it's because boys are told not to be emotional. I think women just see things that men don't

I power off so that my drive encrypts when I'm not using it

Postal Employee: "May I help you?"

Kramer: "Yeah, I'd like to cancel my mail."

Postal Employee: "Certainly. How long would you like us to hold it?"

Kramer: "Oh, no, no. I don't think you get me. I want out, permanently."

We should ban phones for kids under 16 OUTSIDE of school

Fuck AI and anyone who generates images with it

You are wrong. North America is a continent, and South America is a continent. Of all the countries on these two continents, one is colloquially referred to as "America" by everyone who isn't an internet weirdo. Absolutely nobody else in the western hemisphere refers to themselves as "America" or "Americans"

Walk without rhythm

And it won't attract the worm

You wanna really be a contrarian? Use Windows. Everyone in tech is already on a MacBook or Linux
