  • I’m convinced our media is hell-bent on promoting Trump at any opportunity.

    I feel like Trump could do anything on that stage and the story pushed out by the media will be some weird criticism about how disappointing Harris’ performance was.

    Like, Trump could answer every single question with a rant about how cheeseburgers just aren’t as good as they used to be and no-one would bat an eye. Then the story for weeks will be about how “Harris just wasn’t detailed enough about how her economic policies. She didn’t even mention how the Distiller’s Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS)/cash corn ratio would change per week over the next decade or two. Harris clearly is too light on the policy front.”

    I hope I’m wrong, but I’ve come to expect the worst from our media lately.




  • I’m one that finds the GNU/Linux naming annoying. I think calling it that is mostly silly, and am mostly annoyed at people who militantly argue it’s the only way to describe a Linux OS (which aren’t as common as they used to be).

    To me, it’s just overly verbose and pointless. For the most part, the GNU part has been implied for pretty much any mainstream form of Linux for decades. And even if it wasn’t, who cares? Like, you wouldn’t say that you run KDE/X11/wpasupplicant/neovim/docker/pacman/paru/systemd/GNU/Linux… Just saying KDE on Arch Linux is simpler and far more informative.
