Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

Christ, what an asshole.

Fun and completely unsurprising fact: this is already the case with Ronald Reagan. He's buried at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, which charges admission.

These people never stop grifting, even in death.

I've had "When Will You Die" by They Might Be Giants in regular rotation.

We'll exhale, we'll high-five

We will know at last how great it is to be alive

We'll be lining up and buying tickets

And then we'll be jumping up and down on your grave

Computer, end simulation.

COMPUTER! END SIMULATION!

Sorry, this is the first I've heard of Palantir Gotham.

Jesus Christ, I hate media-illiterate nerds. Batman, famously, DOESN'T TRUST COPS!

He died as he lived: blaming systemic issues and right-wing violence on minorities.

There's a good movie in there, spread thinly over three. Like butter scraped over too much bread...

yay anarchism

Seeing Copilot in Notepad of all places is what finally made me quit Windows for good.

I'm on EndeavourOS, which like CachyOS, is a derivative based on Arch. They smooth over a couple of the things that make Arch difficult: the installation, and initial packages.

Part of what makes Arch difficult is that it updates its repositories very quickly. That's good in many ways, because you get new features and new drivers more quickly, but sometimes things are buggy or break. From what I've heard, it's honesty fairly rare nowadays, but it's still a best practice to check archlinux.org before proceeding with a major update.

Anyway, I'm in a very similar boat. I've bounced off of Linux for various reasons in the past, but between Linux getting better and Windows getting worse, Linux is the "just works" option for me. It's not perfect, but any snags I've had have been smaller, less frequent, and more often fixable.
