A lot of that may just be the bloated shambling corpse that is windows.

Even my main PC immediately felt more responsive when I shifted to Linux a few months ago.

Dr Oz? You mean that guy in the Trump-Epstein Files?

It’s alright. I don’t believe it was all that bad. But I never really tried or cared, so it was 100% low effort haha

Oh what a cool take!

I always liked to think of the Borg as being almost more like an emergent property of a certain level and type of organic/inorganic interfacing.

So it’s not that one species was the Borg, all are in potentia. And every time a species commits the same error or reaches the correct level of “perfection”, they find themselves in a universe where they were already existent.

Like a small hive self-creates, opens its mental ears and is already subsumed into the greater Borg whose mind it finds.

I like that it adds almost a whole new level of arrogance to their statement, “Resistance is futile.” They believe it not only because they are about to physically assimilate you, but because every advance you make brings you potentially closer to being Borg through your own missteps.

No one gave a shit about my shitty low effort shit while alive. Who the fuck wants a slop version of me to be disappointed in as well?

I also want this suite of things. I stream movies to friends, share games I’m playing…

These are core features to me now in a robust chat client

I agree with this. I even went with LMDE instead of the main Mint and there have only been a few small things I had to really fiddle with to get working how I wanted.

Having so much documentation that is actually correct and useful is a godsend to a noob like me.

Installing graphene was not like flashing a ROM ten years ago. You just follow the simple steps on the web installer.

Jfc. The stupidest timeline, I fucking swear.

On LMDE, you literally just install the driver from the software manager like you would download most other things.

This is the stupid shit I get instead of actual public transport and infrastructure. What a dumb timeline.

I’m sad that I read this as Weird Al icon and didn’t see his face and glorious curly hair

There’s a few reasons to get that data.

To weaponize it against us himself, or sell it to our enemies.

To create a “master list” that the authoritarians can use to disburse and destroy those they disagree with or find impure.

This isn’t just about some shitty AI. It’s about destroying and controlling us.

He’s currying favor with world leaders because he saw how easy it has been for such vast wealth to undermine and topple American democracy and he wants to do this everywhere.
