Nice! My first distro was Kubuntu back in 2016. Pop OS is pretty solid and a good distro to try out, too- just stay curious and you'll probably find yourself hopping around from thing to thing for a while. Enjoy

I physically can't use a browser without Vimium anymore.

#1 is Guyana, for anyone curious

Long train trips and subway rides are pretty ideal. Mainly since they get rid of that nagging sense of whatever other things I "could be doing" in those moments (going to the gym, practicing an instrument etc)

The Pinetime's a pretty solid FOSS watch, actually. Assuming you're ok with pretty basic use cases (for now)- it's easily worth the $30ish to get one, anyway.

The vast majority of federal cases end with a plea deal. Any idea if that could include forfeiting any right to run for public office? Would be great for peace of mind if so

Can't imagine applying to work for an ad company in the first place.

Hope this brings us one step closer to never having to hear about him again.

Ubuntu at home (with sway), and unfortunately macOS for work (with its badly-broken and nonsensical window management)

No question, removing swappable batteries was pretty brazenly consumer-hostile.

One of the main reasons I'm 100% on board with stuff like the Pinephone, at least in theory (just wish Linux phones were actually ready to be used as phones.. maybe in another couple of years).

I'm on a Sony Xperia 10 IV now. Amazing battery life, decent for one-handed use, has a headphone jack, SD slot, and meh camera. Mostly solid overall- agree the situation's getting worse and worse every year

I've been voting with my wallet on this one for years- no headphone jack, no purchase

I'd vote for Windows 2000, but the point stands. All it needed (in hindsight) was virtual desktops

The only exceptions I can think of are streaming services that simply couldn't exist as standalone one-off products (Spotify, Netflix etc). But yeah, there's no logical reason something like Photoshop should ever require more than one transaction.

Technically I'm not, but fair point

True, or maybe I've actually gone too far back to the pre-boomer era with this one

Alcohol is toxic, carcinogenic garbage and we'd be noticeably better off if everyone voluntarily stopped drinking it.

The world is a slightly better place without him in it.

Same here (even though I own bluetooth headphones). No reason phones can't support both

Don't think anything can actually replace the power and expressiveness of keyboards and text interfaces- that's always going to be the bottom layer for a productive setup (i.e., you need to actually be able to write code, write shell scripts etc to control your machine, etc).

Guess what I really want is just some kind of Unix machine that hums along 24/7 in the background, with many different paradigms for interacting with it when you don't have (or want) a standard keyboard and display. Putting a display over my face feels like a giant leap in the wrong direction
