I’ve always known it as “Idiots Out Wandering Around”

So is your wife single?

Of course they re-invented the bus. It’s like carcinisation but the end product is always trains or busses., but if this means less cars on the roads I think I’m for it. As long as cities don’t get lazy and use this an excuse to cut their bus programs.

What’s a scroll saw? I know I can look it up, but it’s more fun to engage in conversation with people that nerd over specific things.

Why would I leave one walled garden for another walled garden?

You learn so much more doing it yourself instead of having AI write code for you. When I first learned how to admin an Apache server I had 0 understanding how it worked, but with some effort I’m now confident enough to do a simple setup on my own. I did follow along with tutorials and examples configs, but I made sure I knew what each part did at least on a high level. The reason I’m confident in this is that I know how to read the docs and how to troubleshoot issues when they happen.

When you let AI do all the work you don’t learn the inner workings of a system and are only hurting yourself. If you want to use AI use it for writing some boiler plate you’ve already written hundreds of times or taking simple functions and converting them to another language. I use AI for basic and repetitive tasks, which is something it’s great at. I don’t use it for making large design decisions since that will (not “if”, but “will”) bite me in the ass later on when something breaks. Examples of good uses of AI (in my opinion): generating a list of US states in JavaScript, take a function that converts a strijg to a date object and try to translate it to another language, use it as a tool to bounce some high level ideas off of when you’re at a development block.

In that same vein I’ve seen pibling for aunt/uncle.

Wait the truck hobbles itself if a non-critical part isn’t working?

It’s more the TV won’t be at eye level so you’ll naturally hunch your back which tends to be poor sitting posture.

Gotta find your limit on lactose some how.

Am I actually agreeing with MTG on something?

Can I ask what quirks/off behavior you see (genuinely asking)?

According to this source https://www.etymonline.com/word/daylight#798. It seems to refer to an old figuratove usage of the term daylight to indicate a clear space between two objects. That makes sense applied to the methods use in “daylighting” intersections since it’s meant to create a visible gap for better visibility.

Welcome to Windows 11 it’s gotten real bad. Even though I would rather just stick with what works Windows 11 has made it so Windows is no longer “what works” in my opinion. If this tech stuff is too much maybe look at a Steam Deck? A lot of my friends have one and they run great. It does run on Linux but everything should be setup for you. Edit: nevermind the steam deck I forgot you had already ordered a laptop

The hard drive was just trying to turn itself into a much trendier vinyl record.

OP is secretly a cannibal confirmed.

That’s the beauty of Linux, you get to use it the way you want to. There’s probably an elitist that will say you did it wrong, but just ignore them. Even if you did it the “wrong” way you can learn from it.

You may also want to pay attention to how hard your gripping the handle bars and make sure to have a neutral position on your legs when coasting. These are 2 issues I ran into and it made a huge difference to how sore my body was. I was subconsciously death gripping the handles and would almost always have one leg fully extended when coasting that would cause me issues.

I would be lying if I said my cats haven’t been the primary reason I haven’t seriously considered suicide. Maybe taking care of some living thing (even a plant) can give you a reason for life. This question hits close to home for me, and feel free to DM if you want to talk.

Major shame since I was about to get a friend’s Mac setup to play some basic adventure games. I’ll have to fuck around with Wine then which I guess will be a net positive since I need to be more familiar with Wine.
