    Linux very much is obscure

    To paraphrase Bill Hicks about drugs…

    See, I think drugs Linuxes have done some good things for us! I really do. And if you don’t believe drugs Linuxes have done good things for us, do me a favor. Go home tonight, take all your albums bookmarks, all your tapes links and all your CDs websites and burn 'em. 'Cause you know what? The musicians servers who made host all that great music web content that’s enhanced your lives throughout the years?

    Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fuckin’ high hosted on drugs Linux.

    :3 Well, that nearly worked. n_n

    (I had intended to add a “they[servers]'re all running linux” meme… but failed to find… instead, this’ll do nicely too…)

    Behind every Linux user, there's a former windows user that was let down by Miccrosoft.

      Wish I didn’t cave in and bought an NVidia card back in 2022. But well now we’re served with severe shortage of PC hardware all thanks to fucking AI and I’m stuck with a 500GB main SSD and an almost full 2TB spinning disk with a 3050 and I’m sick of MS getting slower by the day it’s ridiculous; I’m still on 10 and not actually paid MS for it ;), but still.

      The plan was to get a new 2TB SSD and install a distro, but see above fuckery because of AI.

      I’m going to check if I moved all my installed Steam games to the spinning disk will Steam on Linux be able to read it. Because I’m sure as hell am not downloading the game files again if I can help it. If the answer is yes, I’ll just nuke the current SSD to install a distro. I’ll figure how to move installs again later in 2029 or something when SSD prices have gone down again and I can get 2 or 4TB SSD for less than 2 kidneys.

      Fuck Microsoft. Fuck NVidia.

        I’m going to check if I moved all my installed Steam games to the spinning disk will Steam on Linux be able to read it.

        I advise against trying to use the same library for windows and linux, but if you just want to migrate, it should be possible to use Steam’s backup feature.
