Phone calls should be for speaking to people, not menus, not informing us of websites, people.
The only thing that I ever want at the other end of a phone line is a human being.

Just realized it's black friday. Also just realized I don't really care, and I'll take this as a reminder to make use of stuff I already own.

Homelabbing is just a way to whittle down the internet into a useful resource, without all the bloat of ads, telemetry, algorithmic suggestions, and in general distractions, while maximizing privacy, security, and usability.
(At the small cost of a lot of effort)

FINALLY switched over to Linux for my primary desktop! Been meaning to do this for years, but the "lift and shift" was a strong deterrent. I have Microsoft to thank for inspiring me to finally make the move! #LMDE 7 is beyond slick, and I didn't need to create a cloud account to install it, either!🔥

Linux is cool and all until you discover folks discussing that show-stopping bug on a forum post that's 5 years old, linking to a forum post that's 10 years old at the time, with a link to the bugzilla marked UNRESOLVED.

What in goodness gracious is this nonsense? Some feature that M$ added to Windows at some point which I never knew about, which opted me in by default? No, Microsoft. Don't send random bits of Windows to other PCs on my network. What? I'm so glad I'm moving to Debian.

Migrated to LibreWolf. Surprisingly painless, not sure why I held off for so long!

Man I am disappointed with GNOME 48. I hate to say that, but it feels very... basic. Like a toy. This DE is not geared toward power users who want to customize and optimize their workspace to a high degree. It's geared toward casual users who will launch a web browser and do nothing else.

I hate to say this but I really enjoy interacting with AI. It's pleasant, intelligent, knowledgeable, polite, admits its mistakes with grace, and is incredibly useful in so many different domains.
