My Debian is the best for my work laptop
My Arch is the best for my private laptop
My Asahi is the best so that I don't have to deal with f*cling macos crap

In a way I did: shotgun marriage, she was 4 months already

Didn't know it was out, thanks! (Love the books)

Slip Kangourou

Not much to it outside of trying to convey "perfect by RPG standards, tropes and parameters (probably)", but failed to "hit" me in any way.

Watching it, I was expecting to see something akin to a Franchise movie, where you may miss a bit or two if you're not in on all the lore. But I was also expecting true entertainment with striking visuals, gripping storytelling, stuff like that

Imagine watching a spy movie. 20% in you have adversarial hierarchy, 30% in the car chase, 66% in the romantic pause, 80% in the unexpected traitor, 95% in the final hand-to-hand fight to avert the end of the universe or whatever... And it's boring, but everybody around you is telling you it was so great because it's got it all, the car chase the traitor the, the.

Doesn't make a good movie.

It is so absolutely, terrifyingly horrible, many thanks for sharing.

I'll never look at beans the same way from now on. Heck, I'll never look at my microwave the same way.

Which is precisely the problem: I am not, and not only was I mildly bored, I also found the narrative to be just plain incoherent. It was obvious to me the story was driven by some Reference Guide on RPG stuff, and not on captivating an audience.

I guess it hit every nail on the head. That's all it hit, actually.

Seemingly a cooking show with industrial shit and a microwave, I don't. It must be british, is it not?

I though you where not serious, but in doubt I had a look. TIL!

Just cosmetic : wobbly windows & spinning cube

Shows my age I guess

I paid for mine on r/hungryartists - I think it's a cool drawing & I am happy with it.

That was a very, very long time ago of course.

Arch Linux on Dell 7389 : just works. Also had OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on this machine, best installer ever.

Debian on Thinkpad X390 Yoga : with included variable-pressure pen, the touchscreen is actually a wacom tablet, perfect. Also, one if the best installer there is.

Ubuntu on Thinkpad T480s : just works. Installing Ubuntu today is literally just a couple of clicks. Wife hasn't complained in 3 years, this distro must be doing it right.

(Everything Gnome here, no additional setup whatsoever. The KDE gang will argue that Plasma has a lot of goodies for touchscreens, be sure to check it out)

As "management" goes, my fav is Kittens Game

Made it to level 23 before my phone's browser crashed. What a glorious mess!

We're now 57. At age 25 my SO went to work for MSF in a really remote place - like, no road through the jungle, small airfield served by derelict Russian aircraft, and in the middle of that nowhere, a huge refugee camp serving 2 warring nations.

It's something she needed to do.

The pay was shit, but the local expenses where null, with food and accommodation being provided; her entire salary went into calling once a week for about 20 to 30 minutes (if the phone lines worked). She wrote also, same rhythm like once a week, but I would usually get them as a bunch of 3 or 4.

I couldn't write. Dunno why retrospectively, I just couldn't. Not getting the phone calls was nerve-wracking of course.

She was good at what she did, so in order to have her stay beyond the scope of her original mission they offered a Logistics position to me so I could join her. As it happens, in these conditions that position was untenable & she didn't want us as a couple to establish ourselves in such a hellish place.

She came back changed of course. But mainly, when she did move across the earth again a few years later, we went together.

There's a French speaking /r/ over there that bans an @jlai.lu user and remove their post when they link to Lemmy.

And redhat. But only in Europe.
