I wish Bloomberg would stop spamming anti marijuana propaganda all the time on his website and passing it off as "news". Fuck that asshat. What companies does he own so I can boycott them all?
His commentary of police chases that he does on rare occasions can be entertaining but meh.
I pirate too much stuff because monthly fees and everything as a service are eating everyone alive. Hard pass.
I had a "good" job at one point. I didn't put money into a 401k because I knew I wouldn't be employed there forever.
Let's say you're 25 and you put 6% of $50k/yr into a 401k and then get fired 4 years later but then the best job you can find afterwards pays only a bit more than half of what you were making. You don't get that back that until you're 65 or whatever. That would have been $12k that's just gone. I want to actually live to be 65. I needed that money. I'm glad I didn't do that.
I might not have a retirement but at least I've (so far) never been homeless or had to live in my car.
I think Endeavour OS is like that too. I have 2 "unfixable" bugs on my arch installation that can never be removed. I have to manually do 2 annoying workaround tasks every time I turn on my computer before I can use it and this will likely never go away. I've been told both these issues can't be fixed without a complete os reinstall and even then it might not go away. I booted into an Endeavour OS live usb and what do you know, both those bugs were fixed out of the box. Endeavour is based on Arch. The kernel it was running was a kernel number release after my installation developed both of these "forever" bugs.
Arch is great and all but holy fuck I'm sick and tired of this fucking bullshit all the time. One of these times I'm going to type sudo pacman -Syu and it will develop yet a third unfixable forever bug. This is the same shit that drove me away from Windows: uncontrollable degradation over time that can't be fixed without os reinstall. Even Gentoo isn't this unforgiving.
llamacpp. Remember to modify the launch script to use multiple cores. Go to hugging face io and look for GGUF compatible models.
Surprised to not see computer tech majors on here. I have a degree in IT and have to compete with people more experienced than me for jobs that pay a dollar or two an hour more than retail jobs. I'm going for a degree in computer engineering now but I'm starting to doubt if this is a good path.
Cinnamon is the only other desktop environment that I can really use besides KDE. To me they're equal in quality. Cinnamon does some things better than KDE, KDE does some things better than Cinnamon. It varies based on how each one is configured in your distro's repository more than anything. KDE on Arch is top notch. Cinnamon on Arch is hot garbage. Cinnamon on Ubuntu is usually really good, KDE on Ubuntu was barely usable last time I tried it.
If you know a lot about desktop environments you could fix either one yourself but I only use them based on which one works better after I download it and configure basic settings.
Huh, I'm going to try shaving my armpits. I'm a smelly guy and I seem to need to use a lot of deodorant to keep it under control.
I fucking hate seo abusers. I have to use a locally hosted ai for a lot of my "googling" because modern day search results are fucking worthless now.
It'll happen some day. There will eventually be "Illegal" wireless transmitting devices that do things such as transmit data over disallowed frequencies, break the token rate speed limit imposed by the fcc (fuck 56k) and illegally use encryption (using data encryption on amateur radio is illegal). When they do start becoming a thing, they'll be able to transmit data maybe a few miles at up to a megabyte per second (not 1 megabit), or for dozens of miles at a few kilobytes per second. Depending on whether the designers wanted to prioritize speed or distance.
The technology exists to make such wireless transceivers using off the shelf parts available to normal people, there's just no reason for them to exist. Yet.
