One time a girl in a bar just walked up to me and asked if I wanted to make out. Of course, it happened after I was well into a relationship with the person who is now my wife, so I had to turn her down, but it felt amazing.

Well played. Smartasses' power does not yield to time.

Yeah, likewise. Everything about that show was stellar. At this point, I think it's only available to buy via Amazon Video.

It's because the potential customers for your product are asking about AI adoption. It's become a box to tick for all of the non technical goofballs making decisions.

Ever heard of xdg?

There have been a veritable ton of amazing shows from Adult Swim that flew under the radar. My three favorite are:

• Dream Corp LLC
• Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
• The Heart, She Holler

I think you are right in the sense that this may be under the radar now, but this was a big hit at the time. Made the careers of all the people you list, plus Jessica Hynes. Fantastic show.

You might enjoy Black Books, if you haven't seen it. Another one is The Royle Family.

I think that there are more than ample options for non technical people, like Mint. I also don't think that those users are coming to Lemmy to stir shit, so it really doesn't make sense to me who makes these posts.

Like, are you unaware of the distribution model of FLOSS projects like Linux? Because of the lack of profit motive from selling licenses, development is funded and done by donation. Some is corporate sponsored, but not much.

When people piss and moan about the state of things, it just makes them look really foolish, because they don't know what has gone into getting it this far.

If you don't like the tool sets available, feel free to roll your sleeves up and organize a design team to change that.

It may seem hard at first, it's just that people are scared of the terminal. It's not as if widely used programs with fancy UIs aren't also complex.

I'm understanding of people who are just using their computer for web browsing and email, but I'm directing ire towards Windows power users who just expect certain tool sets to materialize for them.

Dude the only people expecting shit are the ones who get mad when they migrate to Linux and won't just learn a few simple tools to make their life easier.

Your package manager commands and options and some basic tools to troubleshoot local networking are really not that fucking hard.

Copy-pasting commands from search results instead of learning how the applications installed on their machine work. It's a lot deeper than skill issue...

This is not about intelligence. People, in general, are really fucking smart. Think of the dumbest person you know, who is not cognitively disabled. I'd bet they are intelligent enough to hold down a job and live a meaningful life. Of all the things I've seen that hold people back, lack of intelligence doesn't even rank.

I think high levels of bias are to blame. Current media and culture encourage the embrace of bias because it makes people easier to sell to; more suggestible to marketing. It doesn't matter how smart you are, if your navel feels good when someone sings your tune, you'll believe whatever they tell you. Especially if you aren't even making an attempt to understand your bias tendencies.
