The only little concession you get is that you are allowed to host your own data)

Nah, that’s not even a concession. You just pay for a portion of their server costs at no gain in influence.

Problem with Masto though is that the technological leadership is really bonkers, hardly anything meaningful happened over the past 2 years with lots of serious issues not getting fixed

Times change again, buddy. Been there. Find stability at work and start from there sounds reasonable, as long as it doesn’t trap you

Well, let’s put it differently. Cars are not just about going from A to B. Most use people get out of them is storing stuff and moving it without effort, safely. Public transport doesn’t offer that. “Fucking” here stands more for a bunch of stuff that people do otherwise in cars that requires some privacy you don’t get on trains.

The point is, trains are the minimum tolerable environment for most people, and already not tolerable for others

I hope OP’s mom leaves a secret upper decker in their house next time she visits

Well, do they give the answer in the article? Kananaskis?

may I introduce you to ubuntu pro spamming your apt-get these days? You’re welcome

Don’t they mean allerjen information?

Meh, I’m not in for comfortable as in “I have two seats for myself”. More like: It’s fucking awesome to drive by bus, because you can sleep (horizontally!), have a meal together, work/have a video call, have sex, store your gym bag, whatever you may come up with. Luxury for the masses at a higher quality than you can do all these things in cars at the moment. That is what I want to see, not the sad future where we all just sit on regular buses like we do now. I think we need to demand higher standards.

Japan is experimenting with some of those things much more than European countries. The “luxury” type night buses are quite comfortable if you’re not over 1,80m and thus exceptionally tall. Switzerland has panorama trains to enjoy the alps while having a snack with your friends (even if you’re 80+ and can’t hike anymore).

That, not the village bus that comes once a day, is full of vomit, girls get harrassed and all the other shit

Same dynamic as “well, the streets are too full, let’s build more streets!” which has worked great over the past century to fight traffic jams!

I agree we need fewer cars and more pubic transport, but these comparisons always assume maximum efficiency in bus use and minimum efficiency in car use. What if we only have 3 people on the bus? Maybe people prefer cars to an extent because they are not all crammed up? We need to make buses/trains enjoyable to use for those people who are now using cars (not me, who is already on the train anyway)

Once you discover you can just install the nix package manager with one command and then install everything with another, snap is out of the game. Even if you just use nix for like 2 packages, it’s already much better

Classic Kahneman/Tversky here

I think a huge human torso on top of a giraffe could also look funny enough

Why not scale up the size of the human so it fits with both solutions?

Isn’t a pegasus a bird? Would that mean that they lay eggs?

Sort of:

“Her body his choice”, but then interrupted by a “his body her choice”, to restore the sane “her body her choice situation”

the other difference between snap and systemd is that there are clearly better alternatives to snap that are technologically superior in practically every sense and not tied to some company that tries to sell out.

Here are some of the tools, with input from the GPT (90% was not funny, these might be but I don’t speak Dutch).

Package management:

bami -opdienen <pakket> # Install a package

bami -opeten <pakket> # Uninstall a package

bami -doorroeren # Update all installed packages

bami -keuken <pakket> # List available packages

bami -smaaktest # Check the details of a package

bami -restanten # Clean up orphaned or unused packages

Process management:

vla -aanzet # Start a new process

vla -proeven # Check the status of a process

Wait, so it became a “his body her choice” situation?

I usually fly in to buy it locally. Important these days to know your farmers
