You sound like my buddies 10yo daughter when she hops online to play games with us. "Everything is not fair, I want it to magically change without my intervention and I don't want to do anything about it or be told to take action or take advice that is given."

Covering IRL advertisements is the only thing that interests me with this sort of tech. I would love to cover billboards with random memes or even just erase them. THAT would be a reason worth looking goofy as hell for.

I have Philips hue lights throughout the house. My son is green, my daughter is purple and red is both. Sometimes I'm lazy and just turn the lights on and off instead of changing the color.

I would have to say that it is not getting worse, its just never been very good.

Just download a copy. Someone already did the leg work and probably did a better job than you could, without serious effort.

I don't listen to cultists...or their leaders.

Ah, yes, not 100% of the time. You know, like Windows. Thanks for the laugh.

They already started using Linux.

I agree. I am a techie, have been following Lemmy for quite a while before the Reddit exodus. When I made my account, first I had to understand that each instance manages its own accounts and there are many instances. My initial thought was to look for one of the higher population instances, but I read that this was not necessarily the best idea. Then I searched out why its better to pick an instance outside the high population ones and that whatever instance I picked, I could view/comment/vote on posts from other instances. I don't have a problem doing research, but I don't know anyone who is not a techie that would continue past my first question, and that is a serious problem for adoption.

We dress our skeleton up as Santa for Christmas. Looks great with the glowing red eyes.

I'm interested in new distributions, but it really needs to do something new. Different default packages with a handful of custom things on top of an existing distro just doesn't cut it. Give me a NixOS, Puppy Linux, ReactOS(I know it's not a distro) or something else unique. I'm tired of Debian/Ubuntu based distros, if I wanted Debian or Ubuntu, I would use them.

Hmm. The McDonalds in my town had a small fire in the kitchen in 2020. It has been surrounded by "Reopening soon" signs since then. Color me sceptical.
