I put Mint on a PC for my dad because it’s first thing easy for him to use and second a 32-bit machine and Mint the best choice I found that runs on that.

The goal’s more about cutting all the science funding than reducing spending. These are people who bitch about Ukraine when they don’t even plan on spending that money on something else they’re just guzzling Russian propaganda.

Hell can we mention that the cold war era these fucks idolize was also the golden age of the government throwing money at side projects?

Well the headline got a chuckle out of me anyway. Still happy with Neon and it’s lack of AI bullshit.

I bet the same type of person who became a radio nerd in retirement also wound up here if they went into computers instead.

I mean, even if the typewriter had an extra button setting off a bomb, killing the monkey and all the monkeys around them, they’d still pull it off. That’s infinity baby.

and you burn through nuclear fuel like nobody’s business.

Hell, an actually infinite amount of monkeys would produce the complete works of Shakespeare plus some originals in the same style in the exact amount of time it took to literally press the necessary buttons.

One assumes it’s either customary or law not to ask if it’s not relevant.

The combination of suppressor and grenade launcher is certainly a choice.

If that isn’t the dumbest thing I laugh at today it’ll take something real impressive to beat it.

I remember having a torrent client set up was a great way to become popular back in 2010

The living room PC is an old Dell that came with windows 7 and was left behind in an apartment when everybody moved out. It also runs Mint.

Millions? One is reminded of the pyramid scheme “problem” where it basically ends up as everybody can’t actually be a salesman if the business is actually going to be viable. Right? Like who are you selling to if everyone else is in on it too?

Why does it have speakers? I mean maybe if it’s really quiet otherwise it might be helpful for it to beep occasionally because tripping hazards and whatnot, but why does it need to be able to speak?

Tryhards I guess?

Hey that Neon one is pretty reductive, I say with my long hair and sunglasses.

Edit: the other machine runs Mint because it’s a 32-bit

Could just be a specific combo of hardware/software issues too.

Ah just Windows, at least on the demo. Wine and such have never had great results for me either. Shame.
