@kleisli thanks! I have Ubuntu on my Raspberry Pi 4 and really like it. But I've always heard so many great things about Mint, so I was tempted by it... plus I may one day give that laptop to my child...

@_elena I can't find anything in my notes about that. Sorry! I think the hardest part was getting it to dual book - but I recall the hardware working just fine.

@_elena I guess it depends on what you want to do. To learn Linux, Arch might be a good way, but just to use Linux, I recommend a more out-of-the-box distribution. I'm using Ubuntu for years on my main laptop and I (usually) don't have to tinker around.

@Edent thanks Terence! Did you have problems getting your Wifi to work?

@CorinaKarstenberg thanks! I have Ubuntu on my Raspberry Pi 4 and I like it... but I've always been tempted by Mint

@_elena I ran Ubuntu on my Air quite happily.

@_elena I use Mint on the laptop that I use a lot. It is very easy to handle and update. For my writing I have a special laptop with Ubuntu. They say it is more difficult I don't know.

@vicfroh from wikipedia, that's simple falseen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_tArticle about the goddess doesn't even mention friday

@vicfroh remember that time we told the church to fuck off and mind its own business? I do, It was Friday 13th.

Snitches get stitches.

@arstechnica Notable that 7 lawmakers called for a pause in the rollout of the tool, pending safety concerns: thehill.com/homenews/house/614Also, the gov now wants billions to overhaul, but it's not to be forgotten that DOGE gouged the FAA: pbs.org/newshour/show/how-doge

@StarkRG We reached the same conclusion though I was slow.

@nek My guess would be that the screen is actually in Canada while the rest of the cinema is in the US.

@arstechnica Was watching the press conference. What a load of excrement. Old equipment is being blamed. Sure, our air traffic control system is antiquated, but it doesn't all fail across the nation at the same time. I can see them closing an airport, but the entire system? The BS is strong with this one.

@vicfroh She seems to be screwing over the USA pretty good right now.

@vicfroh not me :(

@jerry

@jerry but you said push it to production!

@arstechnica I guess if all the planes are grounded because of slop, there's no congested flight paths. Mission accomplished.#Enshittification #AI

@GroupNebula563 they’re calling it the funniest post of the day /silly

@arstechnica I am never flying on a plane in this fucking country until the FAA is completely overhauled and properly staffed with humans after all this bullshit era.

@arstechnica it is interesting that the Ars article published just before this one was about the FAA expanding the use of so called AI...

@jerry is this about email, or airplanes?

@arstechnica What a day to publish this article. 🤣

@jerry I doubt there's a sale at Macy's though. Is Macy's still a thing or did they follow Sears into the Private Equity toilet?
