Closer look at Comit. My little crawler robot #robot

To anyone unaware, #Canada is destroying #Mexico with open-pit mining, and has hired armed thugs to "protect" their interests and intimidate the local affected population, in particular indigenous peoples.

I know people like to make fun of niche operating systems, but for the five years I was at Microsoft I used Windows (10 then 11) as my daily driver. It’s much less stable than a professional OS, but it does kind-of work. I wouldn’t say it’s ready for the desktop. The UI is inconsistent and changes randomly between releases, a load of common software is basically useable only in a VM, it lags and freezes periodically (unlike an OS designed for interactive use, random drivers run a load of things directly in interrupt handlers, so you get latency spikes that you wouldn’t see in a more mainstream desktop OS) and the update process can hose the system, so it’s mostly of interest to people who like tinkering with their machines than people who actually want to get work done. Oh and a load of random bits of the OS have ads, but that’s what you get from a free ad-supported system instead of one developed by an active open-source community.

I don’t think I’d recommend anyone use it as their daily driver or in a work setting, but it’s not totally unusable. It’s not at the level of maturity than you’d expect from, say, Linux or FreeBSD, especially not for client workloads. If you do have to use it, I recommend that you install FreeBSD in a Hyper-V VM for real work. That’s what I did and it works quite well.

If the plague doesn't get me, that is.

I'm getting a very annoying tick on my feed.

People mention that the notable Nazi uses Linux and also uses a Nazi compositor.

Do the vast majority of people not realize they're giving fucking spotlight to Nazis?

Do people not recall that the Nazi compositor is run by Nazis?

Worse is the fucking admins who aren't striking down on this.

“Don’t fight back against the fascists, you’ll just give them an excuse to crack down on us” reflects a catastrophic misunderstanding of what fascism is or what motivates them to act.
