We need to sanction these fuckers. If you own a business, stop doing business with them. Don’t conduct any kind of transaction with them. Refuse service, tell them to leave your establishment, etc. Stop dating these losers, hanging out with them, etc. If you have one as your neighbor, give them the cold shoulder. These people live among us. Find out who they are and isolate them as much as possible. Don’t invite their kids to birthday parties, kick their kids out of sports leagues, etc. Be calm, polite and firm.

It’s generally easier because the drivers are built in. Nvidia is perfectly usable, but it’s more susceptible to breaking during kernel updates. It’s not as bad as everyone makes it sound though. That said, AMD is usually the way to go on Linux unless your use case requires Nvidia.

FYI this is the nouveau driver no one uses. There is absolutely no reason to use an nvidia card and this driver.

The point is it's a dumb, old argument that apparently hasn't affected adoption of the language. Python is immensely useful and significant whitespace is a big, fat nothingburger. It's just silly to still be debating it after all these years. The time for that was like 30 years ago.

Meanwhile, Python is one of the most widely used programming languages.

I thought we moved past that complaint 20 years ago. It’s not as if you won’t indent your code anyway.

They are required to.

It wouldn’t be a tragedy and it wouldn’t be terrible. I am confident it will be a worldwide holiday.

I have the latest Framework 13 and I had a ThinkPad before this. I can recommend either of them. The Framework is one of my favorite computers I’ve had, but it’s not cheap. You will save some money if you ever have to make repairs, but I don’t know how the TCO works out for upgrades. It’s more about empowerment and reducing waste though.

Linux runs fine on both the Framework and the ThinkPad. You can pretty much just take your pick of distros and they should work, although you may want to stick with one of the more up to date distros on Framework because it has new hardware. Fedora, Arch-based, Tumbleweed all work well.

The internet has been broken for at least a couple decades. The Fediverse is about the closest thing to the old internet.
