My use case for Linux is very minimal, so I can’t say I know your particular use case, but what drivers do you have issues with? Purely out of curiosity.

Allow me to introduce myself, I am Rupert Rupertingdington The Fifth, Lord of RupertLand, and Bringer of World Rupert…my friends call me Ru.

ROFLMAO! 🤣

Oh yeah, I’m sure going to ChatGPT rather than the handbook for installing Gentoo will go just fine.

Molly White does a better job at explaining what Ghost is than I could. She did so on Ed Zitron’s podcast, Better Offline a little while back. Sorry, but other than that I’d just do some more research.

Here is said episode.

I’ve been using Links for years. I rarely meet another Links user, as TUI web browser use is rare in and of itself, and most go to w3m or lynx from what I’ve seen.

TUI browsers are surprisingly capable of getting you around the web even with more limited features, as long as you mainly are focused on accessing public text documents and communications.

I know one of the main uses I saw some utilizing Links for was when it was recommended during the Gentoo installation process when you had to download a stage 3 tarball. Most just had another browser or used a different Linux iso during installation, but if you were installing via the tty, and had no other device with a web browser on it, that was (and still is) a solid choice for finding and downloading the needed tarball.

Anyways, just a bit of lore. My only complaint with Links is it doesn’t let you change the keybindings and they default to emacs. No shade to emacs, but I am and probably always will be a vim user, so there’s that. Other than that I’ll always be a big fan of Links.

Ghost might fit your needs.

Pfft, as much as I hate Nazis, this is a war/nation state problem. All 1st world militaries contribute to climate change, all in the name of war and preserving national borders.

All for the explicit ultimate purpose of accumulate power to the top of vertical hierarchical political strucrures, be it dictatorships or representational democracies.

The #1 contributor to greenhouse gases isn’t the private/public sectors, though the private sector plays a significant role for sure.

No, it’s the US military. The US military is Earth’s Greatest Enemy.

For most supplements its likely you have to give it time.

I’ve done everything from trying to enhance my brain using nootropics, enhance endurance, and mitigate mild/moderate depression.

And y’know what I take today after all that experimentation? Lol, Vitamin D, Vitamin B, and a medium quality fish oil supplement.

Supplementation falls within a weird area as it covers a lot of different ground. Some of it is BS, while some of it has some scientific ground to stand on.

Based on my own personal research and consultation with my doctor, I’ve determined fish oil and vitamin d, and probably vitamin b, are safe supplements to take when closely monitored with regular blood work checks, and are highly likely to have positive benefits when taken regularly.

I’d always default to advice from my doctor, and when I mentioned the high dose fish oil and vitamin d, he simply said my blood work looked fine and asked if I felt good, which I did. We closely monitored my blood work as I continued the regimen, and nothing bad really happened after taking these supplements daily for almost a decade now.

I personally take fish oil/d because it helps to regulates my mild to moderate depressive episodes, and the fish oil noticeably reduces inflammation from exercise. I take vitamin B complex mostly to ensure I get enough B12.

Anyways, that’s my 20¢ on the topic.

I’m skeptical of this. Ed Zitron laid out exactly why this is unlikely on his Better Offline Podcast last December, and I would generally agree with his assessment in regards to the argument.

I’m not really a Trekkie (haven’t watched almost all of the franchise), but have watched all of Lower Decks, Picard, SNW, and am keeping up with Star Trek Academy.

I loved Lower Decks (personal favorite), wasn’t the biggest fan of Picard, loved S1 of SNW, and don’t think I’ll be sticking around after disliking S3.

I am currently keeping up with Star Trek Academy. I like the characters, but I feel like it hasn’t picked up steam yet. So we’ll see.

This is one of the best overviews of the differences I’ve seen. Nicely done.

The only thing I want to add having played around a bit with Bluesky before eventually deciding it wasn’t for me is that, unlike Mastodon, Bluesky does use a series of algorithms you can choose from when you initially sign up that curate your feed for you.

Basically from a purely user experience, the major difference is the sign up of an instance on Mastodon (which technically exists on Bluesky, but doesn’t really exist in practice), and the more apparent difference is the lack of an algorithmic feed on Mastodon.

What I like about the Fediverse is that I am in complete control of my feed. There are no algorithms trying to analyze my behavior to predict what I like. I prefer to have people recommend me shows, movies, books, articles, subjects, etc., and that’s what I get on Federated Platforms.

This does mean initially though my feed is just filled with a chronological ordering of hashtags I’ve followed by selecting interests during sign up, and thusly it takes some additional effort to setup and personalize when compared to centralized platforms.

It’ll take a while before people wean themselves off the abusive relationships inherent to centralized social media, but imho, Federated Platforms will eventually become as ubiquitous as RSS feeds and wikis. Quietly everywhere, not flashy at all, but running the best parts of the web.

EDIT: Removal of repetitive wording.

Even The Mighty Finn is susceptible to reverse psychology! Lol.

Finally, an honest tech billionaire! 🤣

He’s just trying to save face cuz Orange Pedo Protector Daddy is mad at him.

Gentoo, OpenRC, BSPWM, Nvim, Librewolf, Ortholinear Keyboard.

Also of interest in this regard is IP over Avian Carriers.

Dude, either you are me, or I’ve been spending waaaay too much time on Lemmy, or both, lol.

Same fucking page. You broke it down better than I did. No notes.
