They are the true blue bloods of the animal kingdom, they are already at the pinnacle.

Looks great! Where can I download this theme?

Years ago I tried running Debian on my desktop computer and it became very quickly apparent it was not suited to my needs because of the out-of-date software. These days I only really consider rolling release distros for my desktop, or at least something with a fairly snappy release schedule. If I went for Debian, I’d probably run sid or testing.

Now, in situations where the bleeding edge is not necessary, Debian is fantastic. I’ve run it on my laptop, Raspberry Pi server and PinePhone. On the laptop, having a solid base that doesn’t break if I don’t use it for a while was great, since I didn’t use that laptop often. I did use flatpaks for some applications that I really wanted to be more recent and it worked nicely. So yes, you can use Debian as a solid base and use Flatpaks/Appimages/other to run apps you really need the newest version of, where available of course.

Is there anything this wunderkind can’t invent‽

He didn’t leave, he just went on to invent metal.

God, I hate that meme format so much. It adds absolutely fucking nothing. It’s insufferable.

Dave Grohl’s speech at Lemmy Kilmister’s funeral is beautiful though.

People trying to have long-form discussions on Twitter/X has baffled me since the beginning. It is decidedly not the right platform for that and it was never designed to be. In fact, its design clearly discourages any meaningful discourse. I have never been able to wrap my head around that site and its users.

The interface is a bit bare bones and 90’s but I like it that way. It’s a good and reliable client.

Been using Plasma Wayland for a few years now with minimal issues.

I’d be perfectly fine if everything was just mixed mono. I see little value in stereo. I’m weird like that.

Can’t help you there, I buy CDs and lossless copies from Bandcamp and Qobuz. Those work for me.

I really should read that one. I’ve been a fan of Poe’s Haunted for a long time.

I’m reading Universal Harvester by John Darnielle. I think I like it, but how much probably depends on how the writer is able to bring it all together in the end. I do like the somewhat unconventional structure though, and the book is very atmospheric. It feels like it’s more focused on painting pictures of a time and place than strictly telling a story, or something, I’m not good at describing it.

I’m sorry, but that’s private.

“Install Gentoo” is a meme, not life advice. With Gentoo, the installation process gives you good insight in to the internals of Linux systems and compiling (almost) everything from source is interesting, but won’t produce noticeable benefits for average users. Especially since updates take some time, what with compiling the programs again. Gentoo is a great distro with a fantastic package manager, but unless you’re an enthusiast or a serious hobbyist, Don’t Install Gentoo.
