@sjw it looks like these only have 5mg of thc? so that's good. any more than that and you run the risk of actually getting high.

@verita84 @Jojothegoodperson @i_lost_my_bagel @Goalkeeper @bronze @af2 session is better than signal is because you don't need your phone number to sign up. matrix is great as well.

@PonyPanda stopped when i started following him, stopped following him recently and still nothing

@LukeAlmighty lol that's a funny little quirk. if you know it exists it could be a little security measure hahahaha

@sjw @matrix rolling down a mountain is pretty fun actually, you only break like 5 bones

@LukeAlmighty @f_o_u_r_t_y @NEETzsche i just dicked around with it enough until i understood what was going on tbh, never watched any video guides

got the late fee removed AND got paid about $100 more than i thought i would. HALLELUJAH PRAISE THE LORD.

@LukeAlmighty I normally eat 4-5 smaller meals a day. It keeps your metabolism healthy.

@f_o_u_r_t_y @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche ever tried playing games on a laptop with a dedicated gpu and an integrated gpu using linux? i swear that shit is actually impossible, i could never get it to use my dedicated gpu no matter what i did. on windows it's as simple as changing the power setting.

like i said, linux is just super unintuitive. hardened, and free, and super customizable... but horribly unintuitive. i'd rather spend time working on/playing stuff than troubleshooting it.

some people actually do enjoy the whole troubleshooting nature of it though, and i'd be lying if i said i didn't for the most part (i really do love fucking around with technology). it gets to a point though where it would be nice if i didn't have to. or, to a point where i have exhausted every resource and the thing just still doesn't work, which has only happened to me using linux lol.

@LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche linux, and pretty much any other FOSS out there, comes with a steep learning curve but once you get past that learning curve you end up with about the same amount of tinkering with shit you'd have on windows or other "proprietary" software once you start getting into more nitty gritty stuff. linux is nitty gritty by nature.

it's not nearly as intuitive as windows is, though, hence the learning curve. the most intuitive linux experience you can find is ironically one that just mimics windows or mac.

i like the idea of linux, and it is good to use for certain things for sure. but when i want shit to just work without *too* much finangling? why would i use linux over windows if i'm just playing a game? so i can brag i'm playing on open source software while i'm getting 20-30 FPS less and i had to add a bunch of launch arguments to make it work in the first place? not worth it. that's how most people see it because most people really don't need a computer to do anything more than basic tasks and video games.
