Fucking right? I need to get better at linux. My mint install keeps crashing in weird ways but i haven't cared enough to fix it.
I'm lucky in that almost all software i use that isn't games is foss already.
Fucking "ai"
Hey what if you had a personal assistant who couldn't do anything right and was always slpurnned out of their mind on halucinogens?
Ubuntu is nice. I had mint on my desktop, but I just like Ubuntu way better. I find Ubuntu to be the Windows of Linux, without all of the spyware/malware shit. It's the most popular, it's kept up to date, and it works out of the box.
I'm typing this on Ubuntu from a Windows Surface Laptop Go. This little ultrabook is hella cursed and it just... worked. Ironically, the 5 minutes I used windows 11 on this thing were chugging like hell. This is an Ubuntu only device now.
I have one of those windows surface tablets from an ill-considered mania/panic purchase years ago and I rarely use it because the touch interface is so wretched on windows. :(
Oh, the Surface Laptop Go's are like Macbook Air clones, really nice.
