Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I’ll not name, not doxxing myself).
Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I’d rather use Tails than something I’ve never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?

Oh, wait. He wasn’t fictional…
Nothing, really. I only check the chats with my best friends, look at the time, and check the school timetable (I do have it on paper, but they always make some changes and then I’m the idiot for going to the wrong class…)
I personally use JetBrainsMono, it’s my favourite. What do you guys think?
As a fellow cli junkie, I made my own script like this years ago. But I got rid of it as part of debloating my system. Whenever I want to extract something, I create a directory and move the archive there.
Name one current country that’s not capitalist. I’ll wait.
I agree I should have phrased that better. Something like a “secret agent following you wherever you go” maybe?
That nearly everyone is carrying a tracking device with them, designed to disguise itself as a convenient entertainment device.
And here I thought I was decent in Math… Thank you for the explanation :)

In my opinion, the Framework laptop is great for people who want the newest and fastest CPUs, whule also getting the customizability and repairability. I mean yeah, I’d buy an older Thinkpad, but programming in C doesn’t require much compute power or RAM. However, my graphic design and video editor friends won’t make a living using the same machine as I do. For them, the Framework is miles better than any other brand new machine with the same specs (if they want repairability, etc.).
I’ve had this idea for a long time now, but I don’t know shit about LLMs. GPT can be run locally though, so I guess only the API part is needed.
Apparently you can configure KWin (the WM for KDE) to act like a tiling WM. It’s very customizable. Also, you can replace KWin with a TWM, such as i3. I remember doing this a long time ago, can’t remember how, though.
Oops, I guess all my math problems infringe a trademark. There are simply way too many things named X. Also, the X.org foundation don’t have as much money as Twitter, which makes any fight a lost cause.
Many people have asked me this (I’m the certified neighborhood tech guy :P), I always recommend Linux Mint, with the Cinnamon desktop environment, or KDE. Ubuntu used to be the best one and it’s still very good, but pretty heavy on hardware and they keep adding frustrating features nobody asked for.
Please please please, at the start, stay away from Arch and it’s derivatives. I daily Gentoo, but you need a decent knowledge of Linux to use both. If you need help, post to the Linux community or DM me :)
Ever since I started talking, I wanted to be a heart surgeon. I read tons of books and watched hours of youtube videos about heart surgery, some of which were so graphic, that they made my mother pass out.
Later I got interested in networking, Linux, and systems programming, and this is my current job. The tons of graphic videos with blood, etc. increased my tolerance to nasty injuries pretty drastically. I was a bystander to a few very serious car crashes and I had no problem helping the survivors with incredibly awful injuries until the paramedics came, so I guess at least something positive came from it.
Do people deliberately not use archive.org? That’s the one I always use but with everyone using these alternatives, I wonder if I should use them too.
