I trust TikTok as much as I trust any American owned company. We all know either way, the data is going to some government or other. It just that America are more likely to do something with it that will affect me. I have no plans on going to China, but seeing as how buddy-buddy the US is with the UK, FAANG are more likely to do me harm than TikTok.

Person 1: Is your friend Bob coming over? Person 2: No, they can’t make it, they’re busy

One Bob, and we all know it’s one Bob, no confusion. Look for context. It’s not that hard.

Plugged a server in after it had been repaired but the person whose responsibility it was insisted it would be fine - they didn’t release the FSMO roles from it, the time was an hour out, it changed the time EVERYWHERE and broke ALL THE THINGS. Not technically my fault, but i should have pushed harder for them to have demoted it before I turned it back on.

Someone in a school I worked in changed from saying ‘specific’ to ‘pacific’ just because the deputy head said it that way.

That if they use a Maf they’ll know what the Finder is. I was doing some support to help out new starters at a university and someone with a Mac came up whilst I was helping their friend so tried to help both and asked the Mad user to open the Finder (something I asumed they’d know how to do owning a Mac) but apparently they didn’t. I then lost faith in all Mac users and realised most of them have no idea what things are called and just use a Mac in willfull ignorance.

Anyone else notice that the first three are Ubuntu?

They’ve got you - you’re addicted and/or locked in and the hastle of moving to alternatives is too great. The short answer is : ‘They no longer need to be favorable, they have you, your data, and your friends and it’s too much effort to go somewhere else’

Thank you - I love how it can look at the site and suggest scripts - and you can’t go wrong with Opensource. Thank you.

Which greasemonkey scripts do you use? I’ve never used it but have heard it’s a good one to have (also, it’s been recommended several times on here)

You forgot to mention the ‘little red button’ :) - Well played for putting his whole monologue here - I was going to suggest that gun.

Is there a specific setup for this? I’ve not used fzf

2024 - The Year of The Linux Desktop!!!

anyone remember when this flooded Digg.com the day it came out? Happy days.

That f-ing settings menu. Want to change the settings of an app? You don’t change it within the app like you’d expect (and is same), no, leave the app, go into the ‘Settings’ app, scroll around the unordered list of apps, find the one you want and change it there. Who the heck is that a sane way of changing settings??
