And the taxpayer money spent?

… To shreds you say …

Neither did I. Now I just don’t have time for sleep.

You can block it with a carefully-crafted userscript that hooks the fetch API and returns fake responses for the svc event, but then Reddit starts flagging your IP address as a bot and demands you log in to an account to prove otherwise. You can’t win.

Curious what kind of real world use makes it a good choice?

It’s declarative. Everything is (usually) configured via Nix itself, without requiring manual steps of running additional commands. This ends up being pretty useful when you have a fleet of devices that you want to configure.

Changing config is atomic. If you end up breaking your system when trying to tweak it, you can boot into the previous generation and try again with different settings.

DisplayPort has a +3.3V 500mA pin specifically for pushing power. In theory, great for powering an active adapter. In practice, has killed motherboards because Dell can’t design a computer for shit.

I bet the next step will be to block a device from wireless debugging itself, so they can kill Shizuku.

During this admin, no doubt about it. Previous ones at least had competent leadership that were hired for their expertise instead of loyalty, however.

I had the same experience. It’s regrettable how desensitized to violence I am these days.

he was a master of deflection.

With words, maybe. With lead, evidently not.

With Linux:

I don’t have forced updates.
I do have driver compile error when I update the kernel.

I don’t have spyware recording my screen.
I don’t have Discord record my screen when I want it to, either.

I don’t have ads for games in my launcher.
I don’t have HDR for games in my Steam library.

Etc.

A thought on the upper half of the meme: those “fans” sound like creeps with a fetish.

Streaming is just acting for a digital audience. If someone is going to be so upset over the identity of the streamer outside of their streaming persona, they are unhealthily invested in that person’s life.

Edit: I’m not surprised about the downvotes, but I am disappointed. This isn’t very different than followers on Twitch getting pissy when they find out their favorite gamer girl streamer actually has a boyfriend, and I’m sure most of you would agree that those people are creepy, obsessive, and fetishising women gamers.
