There’s a delightful DC Comics Elseworlds story that amounts to this. It was fun.

A font is such a prefect thing to generate with AI.

There’s nothing AI can add except mediocrity.

Generating a font can really shine a bright searing spotlight on our having not even a snowballs chance in hell of achieving the fabled any-day-now AGI worth anything with our current technology.

I don’t really think you can possibly do something to deserve eternal torment like some of these comments seem so gleeful about.

It wouldn’t be eternal. Most kids don’t have that kind of attention span.

Plus, these consciousnesses might be carefully protected the way major corporations have protected my SSN. So maybe the billionaires have nothing to worry about…

I mean, I would.

Of course, the pool won’t have a ladder…

I tolerate continued existence out of a morbid sense of curiosity.

That’s beautiful, in it’s own way.

I felt that way at one point. It led me, eventually, to moments that I later decided mattered very much, to me.

If I hadn’t had that morbid curiosity, I’m not sure I would have made it to those moments I now cherish.

Here’s to morbid curiosity!

Eh, you can post, but people might just ignore it. So you’re screaming into the void for the most part.

I love this analogy, and I need to expand on it.

Lemmy is like taking a pleasant walk, with mostly chill fellow hikers, through a nature preserve, and then taking turns shouting into an empty canyon.

Sometimes a nice and/or informative discussion follows during the hike back to the lodge for some hot cocoa.

Why can’t you just use a butterfly to manipulate bits like a normal adult?

Sadly, I never learned, and C-x M-c M-butterfly, feels like cheating.

Debian and nano?

I think you might thave invented the Linux version of “straight edge”.

I choose to believe you also have no community package sources enabled, and use only the included Debian themed default desktop backgrounds.

Is openSUSE and Neovim ok?

Excellent choice. You’re going places!

We accept everyone here*

Hmm. That matches my recent napkin math guessing where they would land.

It’s a little short of what they probably need, but they can always raise prices in a few months.

I like this better.

The threaded conversations allow a useful interesting discussion to continue, even after some random person’s comment details half the participants.

You might try Wayfinder.

It feels like classic World of Warcraft without the grinding for levels or loot.

Oh. Good to know. I’ll keep an eye out for that one. Thank you!

You may want to check out the new “One Piece” game on the same engine. It has the same game play loop, interrupted by a surprisingly nicely animated story line.

Does BSD count as fake Gnus?

What’s up with the Rust hate?

The Rust community keeps trying to rewrite key pieces of Linux that aren’t broken.

They probably have the right idea, in the long run, but it’s still fun to give them a hard time about it.

I’ve stagnated at my position and have learned just about everything my position can learn.

Get a cloud learning subscription and spend an hour every day learning DevOps skills or something. You’re in a great spot. You probably don’t need to drive an hour every day just to learn something new.

No. You’re restless. But you’re asking here because you need someone to tell you to wait for a decent opportunity, which this is not.

Don’t take the pay cut.

Don’t give up one hour per day to commute.

Don’t waste your time and money and health eating lunch away from home.

Keep your ears and eyes open for the right opportunity.

This isn’t it. Don’t take it. Wait for the right opportunity

I expect that’s why the internet’s been falling apart lately.

I’m sure it is.

It’s been interesting to see people not really getting angry about it, yet.
