I never met anybody that used Luna. Including my friends that worked at Amazon Game Studios/Tech.

Which TCG does she prefer to get Deck pics of?

I’ve got a killer red/blue mtg deck she might be interested in seeing.

Was it a fair trade? Did she get his deadname out of the deal?

Are you familiar with allusions? How about implications?

Things don’t have to be said explicitly.

Oh the PROFANITY!

I disagree.

Rewrites can happen due to new feature support.

For examlle: It’s entirely possible that a synchronous state machine worked for the previous needs of the software, but it grew to a point where now that state machine is unable to meet the new requirements and needs to be replaced with a modern fam with asynchronous singals/delegates.

Just because that system was replaced doesn’t mean that it wasn’t maintainable, wasn’t readable, or easy to understand. It just wasn’t compatible with the growing needs of the application.

Have you heard of this new thing called thr “K-Shaped Economy”?

It’s this gross thing where corporations have realized they bled all they they can out of us pleebs and are now resorting in sucking off the rich.

It’s missing the arm that has the gun pointed at themselves.

Looks like his name is Dow Jones to me.

I’m glad to hear that you don’t have a family, a pet, or other unit that you need to support other than yourself, and do not have an illness that requires medical insurance in a country that requires it for care, that a capitalist can exploit you for.

The rest of us, we are not so lucky to be as chronically unattached and healthy as you.

Gambling is just polling in 2026.

Is it an advertisement trying to get you to buy something, or is it a public service announcement with no intent to sell you something?

If the EFF bought up ad-space to push PSAs about net neutrality and garner support and person action, would you be miffed? I wouldn’t, because that’s not really an “advertisement” .

Edit: Yes, I know VPN behind this has a profit motive. But sometimes businesses stand up and advocate for personal action for the betterment of all. Just like Pornhub in states & countries that are requiring ID verifications are redirected to a page advocating for personal action for your rights instead of complying with a security nightmare.

I first read “abuse” in the title as a verb and was thought to myself, “damn, that’s super duper fucked up. Something straight out of a poorly written Dick Wolf show”.

Then I realized “abuse” was an adjective and the meaning shifted. Still super fucked up, but not nearly as fucked up as first read.

Unfortunately for her, he’s wearing polkadot instead of heart boxers.

Buddy is feeling great with himself and isn’t looking for anything at the moment.

I’m getting closer and closer to either leaving the US as a tech-refuge or moving to the middle of nowhere and living off grid with my data horde that has more offline media than one could consume in a lifetime.

Not sure which is the best option. My bet is that Trump will start dropping nukes to prevent himself from leaving office and wind up cooking the planet alive before I get to choose.

In Seattle, during the summer solstice, sunrise is @ 4:30am with full daylight by 4:50.

Starting things an hour earlier is cutting into sleep time.

<insert almost live sun skit>

Damn, now that they’ve tapped it, it’s unusable until their next turn.

Too bad for them.

It’s 2026. Are people still that puritanical that they care about somebody else’s sexual activity?

The places I’ve lived in the last 15 years have been extremely sex positive, which was a slight shift in mindsets from where I grew up, which was slowly coming this way.

Is there a sudden resurgence in this behavior? Is it part of the man-o-sphere bullshit?

I’d recommend CachyOS over SteamOS on non-valve hardware. As much as I love SteamOS on my Deck, it’s highly tailored to the hardware, and has some limitations. But that comes with caveats I’ll cover later.

I also find Bazzite to be too locked in, and complicates how to do things that aren’t managed, for a general gaming desktop. If it’s a media center PC Bazzite can be great, but can easily feel locked in if you want to start adding TV apps or Kodi.

That said, for a beginner friendly Linux distro I’d point most users towards Mint or Pop!_OS depending on their use case. If the user has a high technical knowledge and capability, but lacks Linux experience, I’d point them towards CachyOS, their docs, and the Arch Wiki. Maybe Garuda if they want to additional bundling and update management tooling.
