Presentation is huge, at least for me. The thing that pulled me over to the Linux side was people posting screenshots of their tricked-out desktops with cooling-looking terminals. It made learning the terminal look fun, not intimidating.

Until you get to Mambino, the boss of bosses!

Weird. It let me in, no problem.

It’s an ad. You were reading an ad.

This is just another ad for AI. Gotta keep that mindshare up!

I like the corollary I heard: “An AI can never find out, so an AI should never be allowed to fuck around.”

At which point people will have forgotten about DOGE and have to be reminded.

I don’t understand why the guy is recording.

For “content”.

I don’t get why these random people care.

Because creeps can stalk and harass you online.

What’s the appeal of watching random women at the grocery store?

There’s a video on YouTube of a guy counting to 100,000. That’s it. Simply counting out loud in a droning voice. It has over 33 million views. What’s the appeal of that?

You’re being recorded from his glasses, yes, but you’re also being recorded from like 8 other camera angles with or without him.

Sure, but the store isn’t posting those videos on social media for people to comment on. If they were, they’d probably get sued, and for good reason.

It’s extortion because he was refusing to take the video down unless she paid.

Relevant Todd in the Shadows that came out just a few days ago.

Vaporwave went one better by putting symbols in the band name. Sometimes the band name is just a bunch of triangles or something.

Of course, there was that time that Prince changed his name to a symbol, and there’s also a band called !!! (pronounced “chik-chik-chik”)

Bandcamp and/or Navidrome.

So, what you’re saying is… It is a drop-in FOSS reddit replacement.

You never heard of a talking horse?

Not sure if you’re kink-shaming or ableist-shaming.

There’s already Latex, and the purists calling it Lateh only make it seem like they know and are ashamed.

It’s always been pronounced “Lah-tek” or “Lay-tek” (not “Lateh”). That’s because it comes from Greek where X makes a K sound.

Oh, cool. I didn’t know about SponsorBlock!

I couldn’t find Lawnchair in F-Droid.

This is like saying “Why exactly is chocolate so popular? Nobody needs to eat chocolate!”

And, of course, you’d be correct while totally missing the point of chocolate.

Dragon Launcher. Apparently it isn’t on Play; you have to use F-Droid.
