Ohhhh that makes sense lol. Also don’t worry; I don’t actually mind being necrobumped.

But yeah, I will! The Windows to Debian to CachyOS to Arch to Artix to NetBSD pipeline is quite the ride.

mate it’s a bit rude to necrobump

also i’m switching to NetBSD now lol

I have been extremely satisfied with Posteo, and it’s so affordable too!

I actually have an alias specificay for my fediverse/matrix shenanigans :3

“Scared to death” of losing access to my gender-affirming care. It’s a poetical exageration; hyperbole, one might say.

This is gonna really shock you… I’m not the 1%. Most Americans are dirt poor. The only reason it looks like we’re all rich, is because the ultra-wealthy skew the average.

I never said my life is hard; I never claimed that I’m in danger (yet). It takes time to get one’s affairs in order, and to obtain a visa.

Of course, you’re probably not going to listen to any of this, since you just like to sit on your computer and tell people they’re wealthy fascists because they want to have a modest safety net before they try to escape the country.

I actually can’t leave yet. I don’t have enough money saved up to actually pay for it. Most people could never afford to move to another country. You’re very luck that you could manage it.

Also, I can’t downvote, since it’s disabled on my instance.

he actually said to not open AI-generated PRs…

This is quite rude, honestly. In 2024, I was a seventeen-year-old closetted trans girl.

I had constant dread and anxiety because I knew he was going to be elected, and I couldn’t even vote.

I was scared to death. I still am. I need to get out. I wish I could get out.

on this episode of “am i just tired, or is this post title hard to read?”

I can’t stand “smart” TVs. I’d choose a Raspberry Pi and huge monitor over one any day

Except maybe the Nvidia Shield; it’s genuinely pretty good. I have Retroarch installed on it, but I don’t use it much (no monitor for it lol).

“Hey, you can’t do that! Only we’re allowed to plant malware and spyware in people’s homes!”

I am glad they shut it down, though.

I take cold showers in the Summer. Otherwise, I literally sweat. Like, in the shower.

dw, i need to shower more too!

probably most fediverse users do

Oh no, the showering penguin is official. He’s the mascot for Linux-Libre, a fork which cleans up the kernel by removing non-free, proprietary blobs.

After reading through this whole comment thread, reading this was the last straw. I’ve been planning my exodus for a while.

Soon, I shall say “I use Artix, btw”.

I may not be a good writer, but I am fairly skilled in written langauge. I am extremely confident that I could fool an AI system like that.

If anyone knows a way I could test such things, pls lmk :3

Lol no problem! I’m a fangirl/evangelist for Linux, and I’m only intermediate at it.

Thanks for the resouces; I love awesome-* lists! Also the videos look rather interesting (I see that Linux-Libre penguin…)

I’ll get started today, methinks. It’s my day off :3

Is it okay if I DM you any questions that come up while I explore this magical new world called I2P?

Y’know what? I’ve been waiting to try it, but I shall wait no more. Thanks for the little push <3

cool! ill have to check it out.

im now even more motivated to get all the berries lol
