Not the biggest distrohopper on the planet, but I have been using GNU/Linux since around 2006 so I will throw my hat in the ring with some comments and answers I have seen to similar questions over the years. * Straight-up Debian is no

Is this a "Curse of Knowledge" kind of feeling? Like, when you are talking to someone you begin by thinking they will understand, but then realise they do not. Or is it really just the feeling that you are surrounded by stupid peo

Yep. (NOTE: Nope.) First you ask Reddit, then ChatGPT, then HN. Then you bikeshed the answers until someone points out some language quirk that passed unnoticed and reveals the answer. Perhaps the babies were not born at the same time? Perh

'The Century of Self' is great. All of Adam Curtis' documentaries are awesome. I also watched that Matt Walsh thing. A little vomit-inducing, but a great example of manipulative documentary techniques ("experts," sc

I don't live that far from Giverny. I went here once, with my mother, and it happened to be garden replanting day. Everyone was shocked. There were busloads of tourists from far away. We all just stood there looking at patches of soil.

They are not super loud about their work. If you swing by their forum or read the about page, you see they are a small-ish team. They are constantly tweaking things and proposing different features though.

The fine print says it all, and it is restrictive. But, as someone who has lived in France for about 16 years, I have certainly met people that meet the requirements. Do they want to have an e-bike? Maybe. I could see someone trading their

I go Mojeek, then DDG. I kept forgetting about Kagi. I have a login for that. Yep.com has a different model, I haven't read into it far enough to decide if they actually do as they say they'll do.

I am a professor too. It has taken me about 15 years to realise that my job is not plagiarism hunting. My institution has almost no ability to enforce plagiarism rules. Many of my colleagues plagiarise. When I do catch students cheating I h
