I tried GTA Online once, thinking I could just cruise around and have some fun.
Within 2 minutes I was killed by some dude in a flying motorcycle rocket launcher thingy.
He then proceeded to spawn-camp me and kill me every time I came back.
Haven’t logged on since.
I thought it stands for Sucks
8.10 was the last good Ubuntu. (It also had the best default wallpaper ever)
If you look at the “improvements” in every release since, you’ll notice that shit like they do currently isn’t an accident:
9.04 integrated web services into the main user interface.
9.10 integrated Ubuntu One (Ubuntu’s OneDrive, upgradable for money) by default and introduced the slooooow Ubuntu Software Center
10.04 integrated an interface to post on social media
10.10 added app purchases in the Software Center
11.04 made Unity the default
11.10 removed Gnome as fallback to Unity
12.04 introduced the buggy HUD
12.10 added the famous Amazon ad lense to it by default
and it goes on like this…
I used to have an old Zenit ET. I loved that thing cause it had a small solar cell that powered the lightmeter (which was just an analog indicator moving over a scale).
So it needed no batteries.
When I moved to a new place I accidentally toppled an oak wood wardrobe which fell on the camera.
The wardrobe then had a hole in its back panel, the camera still worked fine.
I have an old Soviet mechanical wristwatch that cost 3€ on an Eastern German flea market.
Compared to other watches it sounds like a Diesel tractor, the bezel rotates freely and the wristband pulls my arm hair out.
When I wear it, it’s too fast and when I don’t wear it, it’s too slow.
But I only wear it during the day and take it off at night, and that way it’s been keeping perfect time for 15 years.
Read my comment again:
install Firefox from FlatPak
the Mozilla repo
or from source
In none of these cases will Ubuntu be able to install it from snap instead.
Only the Firefox “package” in the Ubuntu repos actually just links to a script that installs the snap.
Arch is so great, bro! The AUR has everything!
With yay, it’s so easy, bro!
Update Arch
yay breaks
stays broken for days
Any other distro that had a broken package manager for 3 days, ever?
when I don’t have a choice and I am being forced to use what the distro maintainers think is good for me.
That’s the case on literally any distro.
And just like on literally any distro, you can also install Firefox from FlatPak, the Mozilla repo or from source.
Termux. A Debian-based Linux system running on top of unrooted Android.
It lets you interface with your phone’s functions (GPS, calls, etc.), and install packages to extend functionality.
Turned my phone into a mobile network troubeshooting device, lets me grep through my sms, and I can ssh into my server on the go.
With AnLinux you can install a full standard linux system in it, including a GUI, and connect to it with a VNC viewer. (AnLinux is just a helper script linking to some dude’s repo, so if you are at all security-minded, you can also bootstrap and install any Linux distro manually).
So you could have a Debian with Gnome desktop running on your unrooted phone.
It’s vanilla Fedora preconfigured for gaming on Proton, then made immutable.
a really nice one, like 1K euros plus
1K is below entry level for a decent adult bicycle nowadays.
Be the lack of change you want to see in the world!

Does there need to be a solution?
Do E-Sports competitions on identical certified hardware and otherwise ban people caught cheating.
Root kits aren’t necessary for having fun in a game.
There’s also been a Republican campaign for years to actually try and make those votes not count.
switch to Slackware
tell everyone
feel superior to billions of Arch users
occasionally drop a “Linux has become much too easy nowadays”
Checkmate, Satan. Praised be Bob!
