These videos make me so happy. 🙂

The Linux kernel is a few hundred million lines of code, probably. It does need to slowly be moved into a memory safe language.

I envy you. You’ve reached what I desire.

Why is that? The planet will be fine without us. It will probably be better off without us.

I don’t know. Having a family member with dual citizenship gives me a good comparison between the US and the UK. Both of our governments are getting very Orwellian.

I hope I am wrong, but we’re now essentially being run by an unelected oligarch. Authoritarian regimes like the US will see it and demand the same for here.

My government is now basically a fascist regime. Musk is going to see this and demand that Apple do the same.

Go to an electronics recycling center and get a retired thinkpad (or 5). Once they’re decommissioned by corporations, they wipe the drive and send them off to be recycled.

I should buy another gun.

I already have. Long before the threat of tariffs. I shop thrift stores, yard sales, and social media markets. I go to electronics recyclers and find perfectly good laptops that just need an OS installed.

I’ve had the same phone since 2017, and the same car for 10+ years, neither of which were new when I got them.

That only works until they find a leftist who is armed and fed up with their shit. Then they take the pine box challenge.

What’s a good VPN service? Is Proton still good?
