- Comment on Using Ubuntu may give off a hipster vibes to the average PC user, but within the Linux community its has the opposite effect. 6 months ago:
Ironically I’ve tried installing Ubuntu a couple of times in the past, but for whatever reason it didn’t work. I’m currently using Debian instead just because the install worked. No idea why, maybe my laptop is just weird.
I used Arch for years because I wanted to learn more about how linux works and it was a good way to push myself. I think it worked because I am better at problem solving now - I even read the error messages lol

Umm I don’t think New Guinea is part of the Australian continent. I live in Australia and they definitely didn’t teach us that in school
- Comment on Choose your difficulty 6 months ago:
For some reason New Guinea is included with Australia, even though the western half is owned by Indonesia, and the eastern half is its own country. Either way with the civil war going on there at the moment I’d much rather be living in Australia!

It’s a satire piece
- Comment on I have never seen an ad in the past 6 years. I use android phone, windows PC and Android TV. Keen to hear when was the last time you saw an AD ? 1 year ago:
I use sync for lemmy, so every time I go on lemmy I see ads. Also when YouTubers have in- video sponsor ads. I skip them but it’s still an inconvenience. Same for podcasts

Cool idea, I think it’d be more aesthetically pleasing if you painted them all the same colour

No it’s “literally” been reduced to $1000.
- Comment on Streaming TV costs now higher than cable, as 'crash' finally hits 1 year ago:
It’s true they did, and it took me less than a minute to make an account on a new instance. An instance that I know will never block said community, because it’s hosted from here!

what a legend

I mean you still need to pay for your VPN/ Usenet server subscription, but it’s more like $80/ year as opposed to per month
