I’m nostalgic for Ubuntu when it still had Unity as default, and Linux mint around 2014. That’s when I began coding, and that’s the time I liked the look of them more than the current modern offerings. Plus there was more ease of customization it felt like

I like just good old gnome terminal. Theming scripts work well with it, like the gruvbox one that has like a hundred color themes. it’s got all the right features. just works

Currently, I have 3 DEs installed that I use regularly. Cinnamon, i3, and Unity. Cinnamon is for retro themes, and Unity is for a modern mac look after tweaks. and i3 is just nerd porn

Not that you could before, but I wouldn’t trust any chips, hardware, software, anything made from there from a security stand point anymore.

I pay plenty of taxes. from my full time job, my purchases, my personal property taxes, my breathing tax. I pay taxes to the city, state, and federal government. Nothing would be underfunded if we didn’t spend so much providing weapons to bomb children as well as doing it ourselves.

Pot has been illegal in my state my entire life, still smoked it. I still speed on the highway. It’s all a game of cat and mouse. I’ll live my life my way no matter what rules they make. one day it could be illegal to love who I want. It won’t stop me though :)

shit like this is why I won’t declare my upwork earnings. My dad declared nothing for his side job construction work for 30+ years and faced no issues, why should I with my digital work.

I already found a loophole for not having to pay a fine for lack of insurance. I’m sure I can find one for this. I mean, the 1% do it…

I like the AAA and pc games that have come to mobile. I prefer to buy games outright upfront over getting Nickle and dimes or constrained by time limits which is so pervasive in mobile gaming. Like I like games like Grid Autosports and retro ports like the rockstar collection.

I prefer to play with an attached controller like my razor Kishi. I hope more developers will port their games to mobile because I hate made for mobile games

Ww2 was also a time for internal conflict for the participants

ProtonDB recently told me civ 3 didn’t work or had major issues. Here I am playing flawlessly.

I love mint. I use it everywhere. You wouldn’t recognize it anywhere I use it though. I customize the hell out of it. Right now I got this retro Ubuntu thing going on, running Unity DE and no snaps. not that I’m wholly against them, I just don’t have them.

I like all the shows on Jupiter broadcasting . They’re really into the fediverse, self hosting, etc. their shows are:

Linux unplugged Linux action news Self hosted Coder radio.

Chris and the gang have created an awesome community that you can find on matrix as well.

I also like their shows because they’re always trying new things and it encourages me to as well. The hosts are really human and it’s not like a voice reading a script. They’re really accessible and I’ve had many conversations with them. They’ve even featured one of my apps/projects They’re active in the community and Sponsor projects and meet ups. They’re also independent and really picky about ads.
