Fierro

My laptop needs reliability to be fairly certain I’ll have everything working when I use it on poor internet, my desktop is always comnected to high bandwidth and has a decent cpu so I can spare a bit extra time and cycles on updating everything when something breaks

Different needs

I did like having the same thing going on on both for the couple months I used mint on both.

I believe the biggest hurdle (even bigger than the mountain of tech and capital needed) is people having the will to try to migrate to something else.

Everyone talks big about stuff beong crap but almost nobody puts an ounce of effort into trying, even when there are viable alternatives, the slight amount of discomfort of actually making the switch is enough of a deterrent to actually do it.

Think of when everyone were doing that reddit blackout where they would solemnly swear they would come back after pretending they would abandon it, lemmy existed, forums existed, nothing was one-to-one with reddit so barely anyone actually did leave or even tried replacing it with something else.

Night of the dead. Might be a bit jank but it’s pretty fun if you enjoy the game-loop.

Just heard about a phenomenon where people paint their houses white right before selling them (I assume apartments too) and then the new people won’t paint on fairly new paint so they end up keeping the bland colors.

Some people probably depend on their lightbulbs to make the walls look yellow instead of white, I can see those cases comparing the light to a hospital.

I personally like cooler lighting, but there’s too much color around to feel like a hospital in my case.
