well if just watched Johnny Pneumonic, you’d know that a dolphin is the best animal for navigating files.
(seriously, watch it).
“explorer” is the name for the windows file MANAGER… but still, whatever name they choose could reflect the thing it does a little better.
while we’re on it, the name “Lemmy” is terrible for this app. Sure, the musician is cool… but has nothing to do with it, and i think a big thing holding it back. (as far as social animals go, Lemmings have a terrible fake legend about running off cliffs together… they don’t do that, but it’s what most people think about).
e.g. Mastodon has been around for years, is actually really federated, not owned by a corporation, and a lot more features than BlueSky… but bluesky already has more users and i think largely because: marketing… how are people going to talk about “Mastodon” when they’ve probably never even heard the word before? (also named after a cool band, but not suitable for the masses).
GIMP is an awful name…
these things usually start as one person’s pet project, and they name it what they want… which is fine but once it starts to gain traction, they should rebrand it.
feds can’t meme
nice try, officer
if it was just Nepalese style by nepalese people, it could fly… their version was wavy with a lot of other symbols added on…
i mean, there’s other traditional versions too…
game changer… also any other sports reference…
“brb”
could be a little controversial… although maybe they should take the swastika back… take away it’s power the way n-——- has changed meaning…
that’s a good point about some cultures seeing a foot the way i would see using a linux distribution with Goatse as a logo….
well with my tendencies, i’ve found that alcohol doesn’t help anymore with the current timeline….
there’s just too much awful shit and being drunk is just frustrating because then i’m dumb and still in this stupid timeline….
i used to be able to make problems disappear (for a minute), but now they’re still right there, alcohol just makes me feel more stuck
sometimes a footprint represents humanity and isn’t about fucking it….
i’m so happy i didn’t get that foot fetish hardwired in… it seems so silly to me…
homeless people find sitting in the shade of trees to be comfortable, and the city whole point of urban design is to make them uncomfortable and to suffer
my dad told me like 5 dos commands, gave me permission to do whatever or break whatever on the home computer his work provided, told me there was some games on there but he didn’t know where… and i figured out the rest pretty much… whenever i broke it he’d just take it to work and bring it back fixed.
this was back in the wild wild west, where the hospital IT had one master hard drive image, and people threw random games and programs on there…
i was always surprised how ok he was with me breaking it weekly, but looking back on it i think he was proud…
i was really lucky in that i had free reign on yearly updated computers, starting on dos when i had just learned how to read, and growing up with that through all the versions of windows…
i mean, i hate microsoft and all, but i just think it’s crazy all of these people have super computers in their pockets and are afraid of the terminal….
it’d be hard to start a kid on the terminal first now, when they can use a touch screen in the crib….
my first computer didn’t even have pictures, but the next one did…
another example of: one of the best ways to teach children is to trick them.
try to force them to use linux and the terminal? booooring, hell no….
give them linux computers without games?
they’re 1337 haxors in two weeks… with skills that will help them for life….
especially if they ever get locked in a building with velociraptors….
the whole turtle body should be GNU with the head as Linux
they’re not bots, everyone is sick of AI slop everywhere, and it’s especially distasteful to use it for activism messaging, an extremely human endeavor.
if there’s any shill-bots involved, they’re creating and promoting these while downvoting human made art because the ai argument is inevitable.
in fact, the amount and ratio of upvotes compared to people actually writing out complaints proves that i’m right.
appropriate username, btw…
considering that viruses mutate, this would be the most horrible thing to ever befall humanity….
that’s crazy, it in no way affects interstate commerce to provide a service for free…
affecting interstate commerce would be something like having racially segregated restaurants
get 6 screens and watch them all simultaneously, no audio, just subtitles.
