  • That’s literally how any update on a computer ever will work. Real downsides worth mentioning would be like “you’ll be unbootable, you can’t rollback, it’ll update a bunch of other packages, it might delete user home”. Having to select an old entry in your grub config at boot because the new kernel doesn’t play nice with any number of custom peripherals or packages on your system is not what I would consider a serious downside and you’d have to do it if Kubuntu decided to roll a kernel update anyway. Do you uh, use linux?




  • Definitely not anti space sentiment, to clarify. I love the space program and funding it fully with public dollars has historically led to massive returns in scientific discoveries we use daily. Memory foam, aerogels, paints, etc. I’m just venting about the people (who I’ve talked to irl) who hype space so hard they disregard how important it is to look back towards our mother planet before we set our dreams on the next. IE “So what if Earth has problems, we’ll just colonize Mars” without acknowledging the inherent and extreme environmental challenges that exist in that unknown that don’t exist on our shockingly perfect little flying rock we have here.
