fixate on what you think you know… you’re missing what you don’t though.

I am curious… what was running through the mind of your downvoter?! everything you said was spot on. linux based distributions are at great place right now and debian is the perfect distro for my needs.
when I want to 'splore I will boot an semi-exotic like aros or hurd… how is templeos doing these days?
ymmv, but debian has always been near perfect through upgrades for me: even a recent buster -> bullseye -> bookworm -> trixie went smoothly.
issues usually arise from not maintaining a clean debian stable install (e.g. you were using backports or lots of 3rd party repos). if those are cleaned up prior things still usually go well.
not saying you didn’t have issues, but in my experience with with lots and lots of debian systems, upgrades have been 99.9% cakewalk.
2·9 days agohonestly, I have always had pretty decent experiences with non-oem lead-acid batteries. my local battery place has a decent supply and longevity is roughly the same as the oem ones (3-4 years). I have never had any issues (type or frequency) that were not also an issue with oem batteries.
almost no UPS mfcr makes their own batteries, so if you strip off the labeling from the oem ones, you may even find an exact replacement.
edit: another advantage of a local place is the core-return rebate and disposal of your old batteries.

only 99,800 years to go. optimism!

spaghetti is delicious for a reason.
in-line all your code and avoid the linker :-)
agreed, upvoted. for our current reality, this tracks.
recently had to do some socket level ICMP and UDP timing stuff and this article was a great little rabbit hole!

thats a pretty astute observation. still, narrowly missing a “state-level charlie kirk” because the fascists are just fucking bad at the job is not the type of comfort I hope for.
this looks like a state charge. trump (theoretically) has no control over state pardons.

from meta? not a snowball’s chance in zuckerberg hell.

agreed. a tad snarky, but it was an honest opinion. lemmy will grow and communities will fill out.
dumb idea here..
one thing that may help are clients that allow community aggregation into meta communities. this would allow users to be presented with a themed superfeed of similar communities across many instances. easiest done at the client level (no protocol changes needed), but could be extended to communities using meta tags or moderator inclusion into meta communities with protocol help. protocol support would also allow meta communities to be presented via the web interface.
perhaps this has already been done in some clients. if implemented thoughtfully it could be interesting and perhaps even useful.
HAHA HaHa haha… * cry *
understood. I can upload something generic in place of, but that kinda modifies the author’s presentation. :-(
other than that, I don’t have a good solution to the ai graphic slop - even for mildly interesting pass-time content.
edit: interestingly, jerboa never shows youtube thumbnails and my workflow through newpipe doesn’t either - so I have zero idea what these thumbnails look like.
