  • What I read is a whole lot of vagueness and assumptions and so n so…

    Anecdotal evidence doesn’t count but Ima use this one today: I know a guy.

    Not a super tech wizard in the slightest but works with pc’s, recently told me he joined the linux camp with bazzite. I think we here on the fediverse all probably know someone who recently switched through proton/bazzite or mint/ubuntu …

    And those might not all stick around, but some will.

    As long as MS keeps shooting themselves in the foot and showing their allegiance to drumpelstilskin and company I’d like to think people are going to take notice.

    It’s not gonna be that old lady next door but her grandson at some point probably will be coming across linux at some point.







  • Ai:

    • ruins the planet by polution
    • is used to influence political discourse, erase facts and history.
    • is a tool brought to you by people who at the very least don’t want the masses to be free (look up palantir owner)
    • is being pushed with the end goals to have a tool of mass surveillance and control.
    • makes people abandon their ability to think critically (or in general really)
    • is used to violate copyrights by it’s very design. If you think artists have been undervalued so far just you wait. They don’t want creative people anymore.

    Take your pick, it’s war and you’re in it.









  • I’ve been lucky so far to have people around me from way back in 90-00’s who understood me enough. Back then it really wasn’t a thing in public discourse so that speaks extra to their credit.

    Finding that special someone though, I hear ya, I was actively trying until I was around 30 with a LOT of stumbling and heartbreak along the way. At points I felt like “I must be impossible to love”.

    I did meet her and I’ll have spent my time on this planet just right with her. My miracle.

    I wish you all the best, I know the pain and dread. Don’t give up and always assume tomorrow can be better and worthwhile. Our mind is different, and our world is ill equipped for it so far, but that doesn’t mean we don’t belong.
