I recently switched to #Linux Mint. I mean, the reasons are obvious so I will save that for a different time. What really struck me was just how easy it was to actually do it. Problems were minor and mainly due to the fact that I have an Nvidia card in my laptop.

Aside from that, I was up and running quickly. Apps I wanted, (including Steam,) were easy to find and install. There were a couple apps that I needed to find replacements for, like Notepad++.

Yesterday, I deleted my #Windows drive.

@arstechnica I think this is not about AI in general, but people not wanting to spend energy to figure things out.
That has always been the case.

Europeans don't, maybe sometimes can't, understand the absolute crushing pressure and gaslighting that most Americans are put through to make us the way we are.

It's a decades long effort to turn most of the population into a money and power pump for a tiny elite class, all while grinding us into dust.

We're crazy and scared all the time, and have no idea what's going on in the rest of the world.

There's a reason dying of opiates seemed like a rational choice to a lot of people.

An unholy cleric for #MonochromeMarch, inspired by the designs of Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon, and probably one of the most metal things I've drawn to date. 🤘

I saw an older man fall on a busy road today. I did a u-turn to help him and 3 other people joined. Two of us helped get him back on his feet while another took down his information. He was shaking from the impact and a bit scraped and bloody. He asked for help to the bus stop, instead he was given a ride home. Strangers all of us, who knew to take care a fellow human.

We may be ruled by monsters but there are still decent people out there.
