… I haven’t cut* my hair in over a decade, and it’s been more or less the same length for the past 3-4 years. After a certain point your hair falls out regardless of cutting, and for most people that’s around 7 years.
EDIT: Forgot to include the actual length, which is core to the point. It’s about waist-length for me, but some people’s hair does get longer.
It mostly happened when I was using Arch, I’ve since switched to Gentoo. That also has update issues, but those tend to not always be the same issue xD
Usually I only remember to restart after an update because my USB drives stop working :D
Editing because I just realized you were the person I responded to:
Hey I have a question. How were you criticizing me? Because that sounds like you’re accusing me of being a Nazi when the only actual evidence you have of that is me not liking when people throw Nazi concepts out online. Because unless you were criticizing me specifically that logical fallacy doesn’t apply.
I used to work for a company that had a built-in AI summary in their search engine.
1: We were required to click the links that got printed out in the summaries. 2: That rule also applied to our helpline with worse consequences.
I’d occasionally call our helpline when I couldn’t figure something out/wanted a second opinion on a judgment call. The amount of times I got told “The AI said-” yes but WHAT DO THE DOCS SAY??? I don’t care what the digital meat grinder that tells me to break the law once an hours says!
All to say, yeah, people don’t click through on those links. I’d wager most people who use it don’t
I think “Shitting where you eat” works a little better, given they’re shitting all over the internet, which is where their training data comes from
Edit: Spelling
Ahh, sorry, misunderstood!
Yeah, I’m very interested in the user side of Linux, less so what’s under the hood. There’s some degree of it there, I do use Gentoo, which is more manual than any other distro I’ve come across, but that’s about as deep as I want to go for a daily driver. I am a little tempted to do LFS on a VM once I have a computer that can handle it again
I’ve tried… 3 or 4? All were from people I know who I told “Well, I didn’t like X brand, but if there’s a substantially different one I’ll try it again” and it hasn’t ended with a tequila I like xD I just think tequila isn’t for me
What the Nazis had was bigotry, and violence, I’m good???
We live in a world where I’m now seeing various slurs that originated in Nazi circles being used as regular slang.
“Degenerate” as an insult is based in social degeneration theory, notably something coined by the original Nazi party to describe people they classed as sub-human, and they thought were leading to the degeneration of society.
Forgive me for not liking when people use concepts coined by the Nazis in the same ways the Nazis used them, just on different groups. It’s not like classing people as sub-humans has lead to problems in the past or anything.
Yes, fuck Nazis, but also fuck Nazi ideas, and maybe we shouldn’t be using them.
Tequila. Why is my alcohol smokey?
I’ve been saying for years I wish they made decaf energy drinks because I want to drink more of them than is medically advisable, thank you :D
I’d say it depends on the beer a lot, as well. Personally I like sours, but will occasionally want an IPA. The American-style beer is only tolerable after you get a few drinks in
Our old cat (she passed, 21 years old) started getting chin acne, so we got a spare set of metal bowls that fit in the stand we used. Spare bowls in the cupboard would go into the stand, bowls in the stand would go to the dishwasher, then after it was run would go into the cupboard. Having spares definitely helps, especially if they’re dishwasher safe
Personally when I stopped using Ubuntu (this was years ago), I hopped around different Ubuntu distros for a long time. Probably a good place to start, especially since Mint is based on Ubuntu.
After that I used Garuda (fairly user friendly, does require some terminal usage), then Arch, then NixOS, back to Arch, and now I’m pretty happy with Gentoo.
My main piece of advice when doing this: Set up the install to use a separate /home partition. It makes things way easier. You keep all of your configurations and such, just have a different OS under the hood.
I did, for a while, subscribe to the RSS feed of a Linux forum to help people xD
Ehh, having used all 3 Arch and Nix are about the same level of difficulty, Nix just doesn’t have documentation (or at least didn’t when I was using it). Flakes make it more complicated, but those are 100% optional, and I didn’t use them
Gentoo is a notable step up. Shit actually breaks there, horrendously. Still love it tho.
HMLinux does, in fact, scare me. I’m debating doing LFS, but I don’t think I could handle the difficulty that HML would offer
Not a Nazi
Degenerate
You’re using concepts the Nazis used heavily in the same way that they did, just against them. You might want to interrogate that.
Yeah, I don’t either, and I don’t attach USB drives very often. I’m now tempted to try it, but I’d have to wait for the next kernel update, and I will 1000% forget to do it by then
