Wow, dude. Get back to your echo chamber. You’re brittle and shrill outside of it.

The last paragraph is vital. Grab a flatpak of any software you need to be more up to date. Flatpaks running on Debian are amazing. Current software running on a stable base.

I have no formal tech background, but I’m pretty damn good with it. And I like Arch and Debian with XFCE.

Wait, you’re not making your sexuality and gender your identity?

Loser.

That’s the least of your worries. Once it reboots, its proprietary spyware…errr…AI…will resume taking screenshots of everything you do.

Yes, absolutely. But I also wouldn’t want to. GUI tools have their issues sometimes. The command line is basically raw compute power.

I can’t wait for some new bargain Linux machines.

My coworker does graphic design, and he paid $8k for his Mac laptop.

I honestly don’t know if there’s anything I could order in a Windows/Linux laptop that would add up to $8k.

I get great performance out of my $90 eBay laptop running Debian, by the way.

Buying a Mac didn’t help.

I was team VLC for certain things it could do, and then I found that MPV could do all those things and more. Crazy how versatile it is.

Never made it to the end. Just couldn’t.

Napoleon Dynamite was definitely like this for me. Watching it was fine, and funny even. But quoting it after the fact with my friends? Fucking hilarious.

Been on it for a few years now. It’s great.

The only other one I’d really recommend is Podcast Addict. I only switched to Antennapod because it has a little less busy UI.
