Debian + KDE and then install synaptic and your basically there man. itsfoss.com/synaptic-package-manager/ You could go with Ubuntu but it has telemitry bullshit (if you don’t care then its fine). Launch Synaptic once a month and refresh and apply updates or add the software from the repositry from there. Debian is all about being stable so it wont have all the latest versions of software but if you want a Windows XP version of Linux that just fucking works, Debian is the way to go. Everything has a .deb installer if it is trying to be available to the wider Linux user market.

my wife and I didn’t have but a couple grand saved up, in 2011 we bought our first house at the begining of the end of the 2008 bubble. We got a house that was extreamly cheap compared to the value
when the oppertunity comes, make sure to take it

I tried using an LLM for making an 3d object in openscad, an open source CAD app for making 3d printable objects
its basic and uses an open source language. The LLM should have infinate examples and access
but after 4 tries I gave up and just did it myself, sure the crap the LLM gave me helped form a general setup but I had to spend 2x as much time fixing the code then it did writing it from scratch
I haven’t tried using LLM for anything else, that failure told me everything I needed to know about its ability to do basic shit

dim sum is called dim sum though, you wouldn’t expect to get dim sum except at brunch/lunch time and if someone says they are going to get Chinese food it’d be a surprise to get dim sum. Even traditional Chinese restaurants that cater to Chinese people serve Americanized Chinese food. In the Seattle Chinatown there’s restaurants that have Chinese only menus that don’t have any of the same stuff as the English menu. I’ve been to them with Chinese speakers and it’s a totally different experience then going there with just my wife.
my original point is that “Chinese food” to most of the western world is the stuff that American Chinese immigrants invented. Real Chinese food isn’t called Chinese food because China is massive and they have so many food cultures that those cultures are what that style of food is called
- Comment on thx for the diabeetus 3 weeks ago:
Chinese food as we know, everywhere except China, is a purely American invention. It’s history is really interesting, especially how the restaurant owners of the 80s convinced everyone MSG was poison.

it’s a life changing event getting blacklisted from something like your career goal. I found a more rewarding career path but it still hurts that I was trying to make Microsoft a better company and I was outed for trying to argue that Linux wasn’t going away and Microsoft had to recognize it’s strengths

I worked at Microsoft in the early 2000 era. before Xbox. I did the top level os consumer support stuff. not for corporate but for the general public that uses the os support channel. one day I was in a discussion group and we talked about what you think about the future kinda thing. it was supposed to be a relaxed discussion but once I brought up Linux and older hardware, I felt the temperature changed. it was later explained that I was black listed for my argument because it expressed that flaws in Windows and the potential of Linux. Years later I joked with a friend who still had an MS job, that putting the Linux subsystem in Windows was admitting I was right back then… this new Xbox coming out in competition to the steam system just makes me feel so justified. Microsoft will always be a second best because they can’t break the internal mindset that they are the top
