(re) Started my Linux journey today. Last time I used Linux was around 2005.

It has come... a very long way in 20 years lol.

I can't believe how smoothly everything is running. So fast. Everything works. My bluetooth mouse, my Xbox controller, my webcam, my bluetooth headphones.

No enshittification, no copilot, no ads. Just feels like a pure "this is my computer" experience so far.

I bought a brand new Lenovo Thinkpad for this, and have already deleted Windows 11.

‘Hostility to migrants and refugees rests on lies that almost no prominent politician will challenge.

That’s why Zack #Polanski’s election as #GreenParty leader is welcome: he unequivocally says that migrants are “not to blame” for crisis-stricken public services, and that we should instead focus our anger at “the private jets, the private yachts, and to multimillionaires and billionaires”

How well could linguists predict how language will look like in say 20 years? Which words will be considered old-fashioned, which will disappear entirely, and what new worlds and slang will people come up with?

Saw this ad on a bust stop and my first thought was "This sounds exactly like a shameless NFT scam".

Then I realized that this is exactly what NFT people hoped NFTs would become: something required to exist in the modern world (web 3.0) and something they controlled and could profit from.

Sigo cansando por aquí con #falloutnewvegas

Hace tiempo que no encontraba un juego que me gustase y atrapase. Me pasa con libros y supongo que a mucha gente también en general.

He encontrado una tribu llamada Boomers y les he dicho Ok al despedirme.
He sacado un avión bombardero de debajo del agua en un lago. He buceado bajo el agua del lago.

El juego es recomendable. La serie que hicieron también aunque es menos violenta que el juego.

En la serie entran a los refugios cuchillo en cuello.

Warszawska drukarnia Agora się zamknęła, ale #drukprasowy jeszcze nie umiera, ma się całkiem dobrze!

Drukarnia Agora zamknęła się z paru powodów, ale to przede wszystkim powody związane z korporacyjnym charakterem firmy: drukarnia jest częścią ogromnej korporacji, jeśli więc nie przynosi oczekiwanych zysków, spółka podejmuje decyzję, aby ją zamknąć. Dokładnie z tego samego powodu Agora parę lat wcześniej zamknęła drukarnię w Tychach. Druk nie jest tym, na czym Agora chce się skupiać. Gdyby zaś Agora była spółką sfocusowaną na działaniach związanych z drukiem, drukarni prasowej Agora z Warszawy, nic by się nie stało. Ale Agora nie drukarnia, tylko duży holding. internetem, radiem i telewizją.

Co parę miesięcy media branżowe rozgrzewają się od informacji jak to bardzo dzienniki ogólnopolskie i regionalne straciły czytelników i niejednokrotnie wieszczą koniec prasy.
