Dude, don’t disparage the chihuahua. They’re the pinnacle of anxiety; something many of us can relate with.

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.

It happens when your girlfriend is extremely unstable by default, even more so after a fight, comes to your parents house drunk in the middle of the night and essentially shames you for trying to reject her advances while simultaneously being physical about it by forcing you down and assuming you’re playing some mind game while you try your best to avoid waking your parents in the next room and making a scene cause she’s being loud and borderline belligerent. The sheer embarassment is enough for personal boundaries to get absolutely stomped on in that situation.

Life is living among infinite shades of grey. Every situation has nuance that you might not have thought of.

This is actually nuts. I watched a video breakdown of this blog post and my jaw was on the floor. Super interesting stuff.

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.

Might not be diet. Might be IBS.

All I know is that its a feature of GrapheneOS, and is the main reason why I switched over to it.

It just doesn’t allow you to use the Android Device Policy work profile which makes it so you can’t log into Slack for work (for example) if it depends on the work policy spyware being active on your phone.

I get that for some people that’s a non-starter but for me who vehemently supports and exercises my Right To Disconnect, not having spyware on my phone for work is a good riddance.

That’s what the Google Play Sandbox is for.

The only functionality I’ve lost after migrating to a Pixel with GrapheneOS is the Android Device Policy (aka Work Profiles, the spyware your employer requires to use certain work apps)

Good riddance if you ask me lol

Switch the word “meme” for “comment” and apply this sentiment to yourself and you might be onto something.

Give GrapheneOS a go on that Pixel!

Slippers never go outside. If they do its for but a few seconds to avoid picking up a ton of dirt.

What people seem to miss when thinking about how dirty their shoes are are the chemical residues from vehicles. Exhaust pipes drip contaminated water, oil drips from cars, brake dust accumulates in those wet and oily spots on the road, etc… Every time you cross the street or walk in dense public areas your shoes pick that stuff up. If you walk around your house with those same shoes, you invite toxic residues into your living space. The effect might be negligible but the thought makes me wanna gag.

Why not have a cozy pair of slippers?

No she wouldn’t. She doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body. Too timid.

Maybe $15k dollarydoos?
