I mean, yeah?? I just put the soap wherever it needs to go??

The soap isn’t dirty folks. Half of the time all I’m showering off is sweat and dead skin cells anyways. And if any bugger dares reply to this with some clever comment about taint smears, I’ll inform you beforehand I do not speak with bidet-less miscreants.

It seems crazy that Twitter is actively taking steps to become a worse social media company. Back when I was a kid, companies were supposed to be these well thought out, highly methodical entities that would only make the most optimal moves. I suppose it’s 2023 now though.

Blind nationalism is certainly bad, but I don’t really think that’s the reason all the flags are so numerous and big:

• Your average redditor is on r/place and wants to place a dot on something. However, you can imagine they participate casually and aren’t joining any of the designated subreddits or whatever to coordinate their effort. So what is the lowest hanging fruit they can do to place a dot?
• They can fix or contribute to an already existing artwork. However, to do that they already need to know what the artwork is supposed to look like. Well, flags are well known and generally easy to reproduce
• In fact, some flags, such as Germany or France, are endlessly reproducable, and you can just keep infinitely expanding horizontally or vertically, contributing to the size of these monstrosities
• But maybe you still want to contribute to something that resonates with you, instead of just a blue corner or a black void. Maybe lots of communities want to put artwork on place, but your average user will still probably resonate more with their identity as a German or American more than their identity as a subscriber of r/aww
• Finally, all of these factors spiral. Maybe a reddit user is a fan of r/HydroHomies, and it just so happens they’re making an icon. But the user doesn’t know about this because it’s too small to pick out, and if they did they’re afraid they’d just mess up the design, but the flag of Germany is right there, so might as fill in the bits on the end of the rectangle that aren’t straight yet.

TL;DR: r/place is just conducive to flags. also i had 10 mins to burn so i wrote all this for some reason idk

Pre-Med student here. Just ya average non-average queer neurodivergent zoomer. I’m not from a tech background, but I do use Linux, which basically makes me a programmer 😎

This power would be super useful. Imagine if using mirrors you could just lift all the dirt & grime off your skin, pick up all the dust on the floor, lift up a small camera and fly it through the air, or eat without utensils

To be able to stockpile time up to 24 hours. For example, if I’m running late on a project, I can dip into a time stockpile for 8 hours to get it done. At a later time I can then lose 8 hours from my time

It is Sloppy Joe.

As a linux noob, I can’t give some in depth explanation, but I can empathize over troubles troubleshooting 😭

I mean, to first acknowledge the base difficulties of just getting used to a new operating system that doesn’t want to hold your hand, all the troubleshooting advice being splintered across multiple distros and updates, and most software just not being designed to be compatible with Linux, it’s impressive there are distros that manage to be beginner-friendly-ish in the first place.

For instance, when I was setting up Ubuntu, the following didn’t work out of the box:

• The general need to reinstall every program you use
• The microphone
• Switching between Windows and Ubuntu led to a weird time difference on Window’s part (it still does)
• My fingerprint sensor stopped working (I don’t even think this is fixable)
• My brightness hotkeys stopped working (they still don’t)
• touchpad scrolling was really fast (I honestly just got used to this rather than fixing it)
• Increased the icon size of a lot of things
• Set up night light settings

But more than that, I’d say one of the hardest things about Linux is that it is so customizable it inspires me to find a solution to issues I would’ve just ignored on Windows. For example:

• I moved the time bar from the top of the screen to the bottom
• Set up my own searx instance (though I hardly use it, if anyone knows how to run a set of code on computer startup please lmk)
• Installed wine, Lutris, and software to support Linux gaming
• Set my wallpaper to rotate between a bunch of landscape photos

But ig that’s just my 2 cents. Really I wrote this to feel proud of myself for all the troubleshooting I’ve done 😭

Ubuntu because it’s Linux Easy-Mode

I would only recommend it to Windows users looking to start using Linux. The average Linux user is a lot more tech-literate than me and can use the more difficult but more customizable and streamlined distros, and the average Windows user has no chance on Linux, not even Ubuntu which was already a lot of work for me to switch to

I’ve been on Ubuntu ever since I switched to Linux 7 months ago, tbh I don’t understand distro-hopping. I’m not any tech wizard, and Ubuntu fulfills all my criteria: worked out of the box, worked faster than Windows, hasn’t broken yet 👍

All I do is run Firefox and Steam on my laptop anyways :/

still better than reddit

Cardio is awesome, the runners high is real, but you have to be well conditioned so it’s tough for beginners.

Sometimes, I also like to do workouts because it makes me feel productive while not being as mentally taxing as my ‘job’ of being a full time college student :/
