this probably sounds stupid to most of you, but in a world run by greedy asshole tech-bros.... running linux and foss on old, low spec, bottom tier hardware feels like an act of defiance/resistance. own your data! own your privacy! reclaim your digital independence! fuck google, meta, and apple!

Decided to breathe some new life into an old dell a6 dual core. Scored an 8gb stick of ddr4 for $15(!) locally and grabbed a dinky 128gb SSD for $35 from the beez... JFC old laptop's fucking suck to work on! Screws holding on the back cover are under the fucking keyboard? What the actual fuck?!?

John Candy was fucking great! just watched Delirious (1991) a few days ago and it was a ton of fun! Huge bomb back in '91 but has perfect Sunday 3pm movie vibes. Highly recommend!

#mxlinux will literally run on anything!
Might throw a super cheap $25-30 SSD into it, and another 4gb of ram if I can find it cheap enough...

whenever a mega-corp says 'we are not enron!', it means they 100% are cooking their books, and faking profits by moving money around in shady ways.

I don’t know who created the videos in this short thread, but it’s a stunning example of the questionable truthfulness of the information #ChatGPT & others are giving out. People tend to believe what #AI is imparting with very little questioning.

Look at the starting 2 images, then watch the clips

Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.

Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.

A Few Good Men. Best in Show. A Mighty Wind. Miss Congeniality. Barcelona. All three movies in Linklater's "Before" trilogy. Music & Lyrics. Michael Clayton. All films that were able to be made because of the production company Reiner co-founded in order to give talented filmmakers creative freedom.
without Rob Reiner’s Castle Rock production company we wouldn’t have:

City Slickers, Honeymoon in Vegas, In the Line of Fire, The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise, Dolores Claiborne, Lone Star, Waiting for Guffman, and more - in a six-year period alone
