I guess this is the 2nd time, this has happened, where the guy's family just didn't notice or think it was weird that bro was missing for a week

and it turns out they just died
spooky you should ask for a huge raise
your work kind of needs hazard pay
more people have died in your company this year than people I knew my entire life to this point
I think the email is the part that made me wtf
more than him being dead
if we're at the point where HR is using emojis
(I'm betting he wasn't solo)
wait
he might have just killed himself
that thought hadn't occured to me until right now
that makes more sense, because we do actually have pretty no-shit protocol for people going out on the range

Thank God Ubuntu is leading the way on this
will hopefully finally kill off their OS being the LTS "default" for Debian

Replying to Kribbles #kribbles1 Just very, very basic software. I only know their web browser, surf, having no tabs and people use it to limit their ADHD on the Internet
Surf is such a great meme
I have fun spinning up random trendy distros, and seeing if I can spot which specific minor thing caused the lead dev to bother making it
I do think in general, the shelf life of any specific distro feels like it's getting shorter and shorter
not necessarily a bad thing, just what I've felt, especially when people clearly dipped out and are a few years out-of-date with their commentary
Replying to Kribbles #kribbles1 What are you talking about, Pop_OS is stable and useable
God I love Pop_OS
Can we declare that the winner
And force the whole world to exclusively use it
I think last time we talked about Popos, I also went on my System76 screed
I want to like them more than I do
They're really performative in their whole concept
The fact that their bare bones kits have already been previously fully assembled, and are disassembled so you can play with your redditor Lego kit is retarded
We have a bunch of them, they're nice enough
But I don't think the usecase for a Linux laptop is really that large to begin with
Ignoring Mints Thinkpad mountain
Which is fun
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 Ignoring Mints Thinkpad mountain
in recent years it has sadly not increased
Honestly, Linux is about being fun at this point to me, I'd never use it as a main device (same with a Mac) but there's something pure and soulful of seeing different fundamental concepts
