Deleted my Reddit acc during the APIcalypse. Lemmy is just awesome.

Maybe I misinterpreted the meme, I thought the yelling guy is also a Linux user.

Are there people who are mad at other people for using the terminal? Is this really a thing that exists?

My life is finally on the right track.

The right track:

First I thougt its just a prank by a bored social media intern, but it looks like the whole company is built on this insane absurd communication. It was a hilarious read :D

I think with applications, like Calibre its relatively painless to save the whole library, if someone is ready to jump ship. Now its the perfect time.

I personally use a Kobo without the online features, which is fantastic, but there are many great Kindle alternatives without the corporate spyware bullshit.

Great addition, thanks. There are similar online prescription glass webshops in Europe as well. They just need your eye exam results, some basic measurements of your head and they can cheaply make great glasses/sunglasses.

Its probably not the best answer you looking for but since I use prescription glasses for driving I always get a pair of prescription sunglasses as well. I can choose the frame, the lense and the type of coating on it (usually go for polarized/anti-reflection).Even my health insurance works on these so I can claim back some money from the price since its qualifies as regular prescription glasses (EU). Just need a descent enough optometrist. Some places even allow you to re-use existing frames and you only paying for the eye exam and lenses)

They are not cheap for sure (100-200 euros minimum for frame + lenses) but for me its a great long term investment.

Welcome to the club :D I did the same thing last summer and also switched to Mint and never looked back. So basically Im a fellow newbie. It was the best decision as everything just works minus the windows shenanigans.

Even gaming is almost perfect (apart from the occasional tinkering here and there) its more than great. All my games work great, some better than under win.

Im even in the middle of building my new gaming PC exclusively for Linux in mind.

As I have to use win 11 for work (work laptop) I can see switching was the right decision as every update makes it more annoying and bloated.

The third one is ECYCE

Ah yes, P for Phish, classic kindergarten stuff

I wish Nokia was still a big player in the phone business. My favourite (and most unique) phones were Nokia:

N95 - still looks gorgeous and classy and the “slide both ways” design blew my mind at the time. If they would release a new version I would probably buy it.

N-Gage - it was a cool and gimmicky phone, I admit it, only bought it for playing games, but loved how weird it was.

Lumia 920 - I loved windows phones, actually this was my second one and for me it was the best I could wish for. It had great camera, it was fast and looked super cool compared to the android competitors at the time. A shame the era of windows phones didn’t last long.

A failure is a failure, no matter how small or big. Just because its Apple why brush it off as a happy little experiment?

Every single review I saw said the same thing. Its amazing tech, with a big price tag and nobody knew who is it for. The magic wore off pretty quickly and nobody wanted to use it long term.

Would a mass test have this kind of marketing though?

It failed, no need to dance around the subject. It was a very expensive demo product, and nobody wants it.

A good warm-up poop gets your heart rate up

Tech support, the number of times I had to explain trivial things to some angry entitled asshat, who refused to read the instructions or didnt try basic troubleshooting steps (eg. turn it off and on again).

Also airport jobs. If people in holiday mode would just look up and follow the fucking signs…

Is this called a sink in the US? I thought the kitchen sink and the bathroom basin are the correct names, but might be UK specific…

Congratulations!

Nah man, I dont need kids with no life and jobs to out-sex me. My life is difficult as it is
