FrankTheHealer,

Starlink already uses Linux the whole way up the stack. It’s only a matter of time lol

FrankTheHealer,

I remember when Avast was considered the least shit or at least, one of the less shit options for Antivirus. Pretty much seems all those antivirus products are just malware with marketing teams now.

FrankTheHealer,

Lovely. Thanks for that Russia. I really needed reminding on how abhorrent humans can be, to get me through my day

FrankTheHealer,

We have it in Ireland, but it’s not even remotely like the stuff they have in the US. Our Mountain Dew is just like sweeter sprite.

FrankTheHealer,

I fucking hate when publications use these terms.

Other ones that grind my gears:

‘Claps back’

‘Outraged’

‘Caused a Storm’

Like 9/10 when I see ‘outrage online’ used in a piece, it’s actually just like a handful of Twitter people complaining for the sake of complaining.

Also, what the fuck does clap back even mean.

FrankTheHealer,

Wasn’t that compatibility based on SMS which is inherently insecure?

FrankTheHealer,

Great news. Thank you Signal

FrankTheHealer,

In my opinion, relying on upgrading users automagically to an encrypted and secure protocol isn’t good practice. If someone wants to use an encrypted chat, they should do so consciously. It will only cause confusion otherwise.

Do people still use SMS these days though anyway?

I would have thought iMessage, RCS and separate chat apps like Whatsapp, Signal and WeChat would have largely replaced SMS by now.

FrankTheHealer,

Watch the UK media begin autistically screeching about how this is anti semitic and how Labour is the racist choice and that Tories must stay in power and must keep supporting Israel no matter what.

FrankTheHealer,

Caoimh - kweeva

Siobhán - Shivawn

Sinead - Shin-ade

Níamh - Neev

Grainne - Grawn-ya

Sorcha - Surka

Bláthnaid - Blawnid

Clíodnadh - Clee-ona

Órlaith - Oar-la

Ciara - Kee-ra

All these names make sense when one understands Irish grammar and pronunciations, but I can absolutely see how people elsewhere would struggle with these.

Ukraine’s Zelensky Signs Medical Marijuana Bill, A Step He Says Can Heal ‘Pain, Stress and Trauma Of War’ With Russia (www.marijuanamoment.net)

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has officially signed a bill to legalize medical marijuana—a step that he and other officials say can help soldiers address physical and mental wounds incurred during the nation’s war with Russia....

FrankTheHealer,

Wasn’t on my list of predictions for 2024, but fuck it why not. They deserve to get high if they want after all they’ve been through lol

FrankTheHealer,

Imagine thinking you can make encryption illegal. Fucking imbeciles.

FrankTheHealer,

Have they ever said if vertical-tabs is a feature they will add? Vivaldi and Edge both support it by default and it’s awesome.

FrankTheHealer,

The extension is awkward to use imo. The way Vivaldi has it integrated for example is miles better and I really want to see Firefox do same.

FrankTheHealer,

I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but the main dev of Elementary OS is trans. And I think one of the devs behind Asahi Linux.

There is a slight association. Not a bad thing, there are probably more examples too. But those are the ones that immediately came to mind.

FrankTheHealer,

Hon the girls. I respect their decision. The treatment of Palestinians is almost certainly just genocide at this point.

Ireland is not antisemitic. We just sympathize with people who are made second class citizens in their own home since we know how that feels.

FrankTheHealer,

Fuck Discord when it’s used in lieu of a forum, documentation or proper support channels.

FrankTheHealer,

I switched to Linux in 2018 because my lovely to use MacBook stopped getting updates despite being a perfectly capable machine. It really sank in for me, how much Apple relies on planned obsolescence etc. I switched to Elementary OS and was fascinated by how it worked. That was nearly 6 years ago and now I use Linux on fucking everything.

I have come across times when I’ve needed Windows but I can usually just set it up in a virtual machine temporarily. However the times when I need Windows are becoming increasingly rare, thank fuck.

It’s been absolutely phenomenal in the last 6 years to see how far the Linux and open source eco system has grown. My Steam Deck (Steam OS 3), Jellyfin server (Ubuntu) and even my Starlink (OpenWRT) Internet connection are all great examples of that. And I hope it continues.

FrankTheHealer,

Wasn’t the end of the world but I didn’t like Apple not shipping new features etc, just because they wanted me to buy a new machine.
