Never argue with the fool, let them be. Anonymous 09/20/25 (Sat) 08:39:50 No.14921 [Open Thread]

This philosopher from the 1950's predicted image boards and the Internet:

"In the heat of battle, your own ego quietly steps onto the stage. No longer is it truth meeting ignorance, it is mask confronting mask, each insisting 'I am right'. But the louder the masks shout, the less anyone truly hears.

"What began as a gift of clarity turns into a performance of pride. You wanted to offer light, but soon you were defending yourself, and so is the other. Thus the dance begins not a dance of wisdom, but of egos circling each other, terrified of being unmasked.

"The cost of this quarrel is not in words wasted, but in peace surrendered. You hand over your calm, your clarity, your joy, and in the end both look equally absurd!"

---

"Truth can't be forced into unready soil.

"The kindest act may be to speak it once, and then let it be.

"For if their heart is not yet in season, no argument will make it ripen faster.

"People would rather cling to their rags, than be stripped of their certainty.

"We are not only afraid of being wrong, we are afraid of looking wrong. Afraid of appearing foolish, of being laughed at, of being seen as less clever than we hoped.

"Yet notice this curious twist. Resistance is itself a sign that the seed has touched fertile ground. If it had not struck the ego, it would pass by unnoticed. The very discomfort proves [truth's] potency."

Privacy Search Engines Anonymous 09/08/25 (Mon) 19:36:51 No.14918 [Open Thread]

Big search engines like Google track your activity and sell your data for ads — which is why a lot of us don’t search freely anymore. I’ll share a few alternatives I’ve found, and would love to hear what others are using too!

DuckDuckGo: Best for untracked searching

Startpage: Best for unprofiled browsing

MyAllSearch: Clean interface and an emphasis on user privacy.

Qwant: GDPR-protected searching

Startpage: Combines the top results of multiple engines, primarily Gigablast and Yandex.

I’ve reviewed a few of the options listed, and the results are largely the same across the board. What I find frustrating, though, is the constant appearance of 'AI Suggestions.' I’d prefer to do my own searching without having snippets pushed at me. I get that this is the direction things are heading, but seriously—if I want an AI-generated summary, I’ll ask for one.

I can't be the only one fed up with that!!!

arch linux vs debeian Anonymous 07/19/21 (Mon) 19:21:55 No.13899 [Open Thread]

hello i've been messing around with Arch and Debian on a vm for a while now but today I want to make my big change from windows today, i'm wondering which one would you guys would think be the better choice to make and not regretting it later on in the future, also i've tried gentoo and I personally don't think i'm ready for it but I might give it another chance in the future, sorry about my spelling eras.

Debian also has a rolling version. But it seems to lack the simplicity of arch.

Arch has better documentation, better support for compiling from source, typically less bloated and runs better.

But biggest difference is the Arch repository which makes installing Linux software much easier.

Don't Miss !! Andromeda 07/29/25 (Tue) 05:08:27 No.14886 [Open Thread]

🧠 Andromeda Is Quietly Becoming the Smartest Protocol in Web3

While most chains are chasing hype, Andromeda is busy building the infrastructure for intelligent, modular, AI-powered Web3 apps.

Not just another L1. Not another overpromised roadmap.

✅ AI-native onboarding (Pulsar)

✅ Composable building blocks (ADOs)

✅ Modular OS (aOS) that actually works

✅ Real-world partnerships (like Acoer for healthcare data onboarding)

✅ 360+ builders already in bootcamp

The ecosystem is growing fast — and it’s only the beginning. If you’re still chasing meme coins with no product, maybe it’s time to look at real utility.

LE AVERAGE USER on Linux distros because PewdiePie Anonymous 04/30/25 (Wed) 17:12:53 No.14785 [Open Thread]

Anyone else looking forward to the onslaught of retarded end users enshittifying the free software community whining about:

- how Linux distributions need to change to a retard UI (or [insert feature]) a 1:1 copy of their shitty proprietary "competitors" because of "familiarity" to appeal to the knuckle-dragging lowest common denominator (i.e., retards/niggers/"THE AVERAGE USER")

- how their shitty corporate slop apps of choice doesn't work and not therefore "'Linux' is bad" or "'Linux' doesn't 'just werk^TM" because they are immune to voluntarily changing their bad habits they learned and accepted from shittier kernels and their distributions.

Oh joy! I can't wait to get flooded with requests about how bad changing settings in files is horrible because plain text is SCARY!

Oh come on. Linux doesn't need more elitism, it needs more adoption.

Still, we should firmly resist any windowification attempt. My biggest concerns atm are rustrannies pushing to rewrite everything and the forced flatpack cancer, way more than newfriends.

Sadly I think a lot of software that makes linux more like windows will see the day in the wake of the massive adoption to come, and most of these small projects won't be bothered with packaging correctly which means it will all be snaps and flatpacks. And this is what worries me.

I don't think the UIs will be impacted much.

... except for the recent meme of not having an 'Apply' button, which already started contaminating Linux years ago. This is to blame on the soydevs who imported this shit from their mobile UI coding jobs to Linux.
