  • I’m doing my part.

    I set up bazzite in a VM and passed my GPU thru it.

    Now I’ve got a nuc clone in my office with bazzite on it as well and it’s just a moonlight client. But it’s silent. Or damn close. The GPU is two floors away, I hear nothing!

    That was two separate downloads, too…Nvidia-gnone and gnome-standard.

    I was on Nobara a couple months ago and liked it…but a colleague piqued my interest on immutable distros and now here I am.







  • Yeah but police follow the money until it gets too hard to pull people in (or someone on the force is protecting them).

    So usually they just take your basic B&Es and corner street dealers and shoplifters and leave it at that.

    Nobody ever asked why the criminals chose a life of crime.

    Nobody goes after the employers that are paying slave wages, training employees how to sign up for welfare, or getting their employees to work off the clock.

    The welfare one especially. People get mad at welfare recipients and not the people that put them in that position. Welfare is subsidizing the Walton’s more than anything. They could afford to pay their employees a living wage, but why would they when they can pay the minimum and working-class taxpayers can pay for the rest. Dumbass redcaps should be shunning Walmart, not sucking its proverbial dick.


  • I had to rent a car from Enterprise during a mild snowstorm.

    I picked it up the night before and brought it home (work paid for the rental, I didn’t want to put miles on my car).

    They had filled up the wiper fluid with water, so my wipers wouldn’t work. Frozen solid.

    Swung by the rental agency on the way to my trip to complain and swap out the car.

    Next car was fine for like 30 minutes but then it stopped working again. Frozen solid.

    I guess some idiot decided to top up all the cars with water. Which doesn’t work so well in the wintertime.

    ETA: for those who don’t know driving in the snow…you often need wiper fluid. Especially when the road has a mist of salty, sandy water on it from melted snow + sand/salt trucks.






  • I honest to fucking God don’t understand how cybersec is so fucking bad that there are so many damn data breaches that I lost count

    Really? It’s hard to understand?

    Dude it’s a fucking arms race between cyber security teams and attackers.

    And there’s more money in attacking than there is in defending. Defending is an expense. Attacking is almost entirely profit

    And some attackers are backed by nation-states.

    Attackers only have to get through once. Defense has to work 100% of the time.
