  • My office “requires” that I use the provided Apple M1 but I don’t give a shit because 1) MacOS is garbage, and 2) I make frontend and backend services that are going to run in containers on the cloud. So I’m using a Mint mini-pc in office and a Mint VM at home. Just use whatever you like.

    BTW:

    Immutable setups ftw

    I don’t like them but if you are willing to work your ass off to make docker and everything else works be my guest. I prefer to keep everything work-related in a VM so I can just save snapshots.

    Arch is stable enough though

    Too risky for me but whatever.

    Type of work affects distro choice more so than DE choice (I do backend webdev, my deliverables are very platform independent, so I didn’t think about this much)

    I also do full stack and neither the distro and the DE matters IMHO.

    Plenty of XFCE users out there!

    I have XFCE on my Mint mini-pc. It’s fine but it looks so poor…



  • More homes is good

    There are ~600,000 unoccupied homes in UK, of which over 248,000 are long-term vacant, meaning empty for 6+ months. Why the ruling class wants more? Are we so delusional to believe that they want to bring down house prices? I think the “professional landlords” and real estate corporations just want more assets, and they will outbid who wants a home to live in and will raise the prices even further.














  • Sorry but I’ll never buy the idea of the good man that tried to stop the conspirators within the government and was killed. It is naive and implies that the system - the capitalist USA - is not evil, but it’s just few bad apples that ruin everything. Fuck that. You’d make a nicer impression saying you’re drunk than believing that crap.

    As the Commander in Chief, JFK is responsible of all the terrorism the USA did during his presidency. It doesn’t matter if he was the mastermind or an unawere useful idiot.

    And BTW this is the kind of lies that JFK said during the Cuban Missile Crisis:

    our history, unlike that of the Soviets since the end of World War II, demonstrates that we have no desire to dominate or conquer any other nation or impose our system upon its people
