Whatever distro you pick will have instructions for where and how to install the drivers, if it doesn’t do so for you during the install. Ubuntu is probably most likely to do so easiest. I prefer Fedora for other reasons, which is also easy to get nvidia working, but sightly less easy than Ubuntu where it’s a single checkbox during OS install.

There are a ton of great UI libraries available, many with bindings for whatever our preferred languages are. We don’t need an LLM for any of that.

Creation of the Gods was awesome, IMO.

According to Wikipedia, it’s “the most ambitious and expensive Chinese production ever made.” If you like epic fantasy like LotR or GoT, then you should definitely give this movie a try.

The second in the trilogy came out in January, but I haven’t had time to watch yet. Looking forward to it though!

Basically everything I can recall being told in D.A.R.E program classes (war on drugs era propaganda taught in public schools in the USA) was utter nonsense and fabricated bullshit. After actually having personal experience with most of the substances they vilified, none of the effects - good or ill - are what I was taught in that ridiculous program.

On the contrary, some of the fear tactics they used made me curious to investigate on my own. The breathlessly scared rural teacher describing the mind bending effects that “magic mushrooms” was supposed to have sounded fascinating to teenage me. In reality, they are very fun and therapeutic to use, but nothing like the wild Alice in Wonderland mind journey they made it sound like it would be.

This is cool! I’m almost more interested in the underline gaps for descenders that got snuck in as a “oh yeah I did this too” feature. That makes underlined text so much easier to read, IMO.

It is probably a good idea to mention what Redshift actually is, since it’s far from the top result in a search, and a lot of people associate that word with an AWS product by the same name. Wikipedia describes the Redshift you presumably mean as:

an application that adjusts the computer display’s color temperature based upon the time of day.

It also mentions that gammastep is a more recent fork, but it has not had any commit activity for 2.5 years, so gammastep might be abandoned as well.

Could you elaborate what you mean by “doesn’t have Wayland”?

Krita works fine on Wayland (I just finished using it to scribble out a comic strip, in fact), but is there something specific you’re finding that is broken?

That’s a pretty vague question; what kind of NSFW “stuff” are you looking to post?

However, if you’re talking about art, then Slushe is a fairly nice NSFW art site (though it may be abandoned by it’s creators, last blog activity was over a year ago) that varied artists post plenty of stuff regularly.

An effect that becomes less surprising with repetition. At some point, it’s no longer a “surprising effect” but an entirely expected one.

Yeah technically you aren’t supposed to ride on the sidewalks here (USA) but there’s barely any safe infrastructure to do otherwise, and I’m sure as hell not going to ride on the street with the death machines honking all over the place, so the sidewalk it is until city infrastructure is less car-brained.

Thank you for providing a non lethal alternative method. I’m uncomfortable with how much death humans gleefully visit upon the insect kingdom when they don’t have to.

all of the kids are progressive

I’m not so sure that’s entirely true, there are plenty of angry social regressives among the young too.

Anybody who buys one of those vehicles is someone who sucks also. Fuck em all.

Just pointing out how ironic it is that your response to someone informing you that you are being manipulated by police propaganda is to… go find stats sourced from the police to argue that you feel justified agreeing with the police propaganda.

🤔

This looks interesting, but I don’t understand what it’s for. I read through the readme, but came out none the wiser. What exactly is a compose sequence?

traffic cameras in fucking Cornwall, this is where we really really need to draw the line and talk about systemic discrimination.

You may not be aware, but the world is larger than just Cornwall. Your bad faith reductionist arguments are idiotic.

You acknowledge that systemic discrimination exists, but you want to paint borders around where it’s appropriate to talk about it. Why? Systemic discrimination is always worth examining. Yes, even in Cornwall, but also everywhere else.

there’s an extremely simple solution for not being „filtered into the justice system“: stop driving too fast

Nice how you conveniently ignore the other points made in this thread about how speed cameras actually are used. They don’t call these approaches “speed traps” for nothing, there is intentional entrapment built into the system.

The camera is not what’s discriminating (in theory), it’s the justice system that they have to deal with after the camera triggers on them.

To expand on what the above commenter said, the cameras are also discriminating because of the simple statistics of class dynamics. There are more poor people than rich ones being filtered into the justice system by cameras. Cameras also could be installed disproportionately in minority or poor neighborhoods, for example. Pretending that there aren’t other discriminatory dynamics at play and acting like it’s as simple as “tEchNoLoGY iS nEutRaL!” is ignorant.

The sentence just prior.
