Blank is absolutely better. "Sign in to my platform to make your auto generated lusting better" is way more attractive than "sign in to make it not actively bad" But every app store should require a screenshot of the ui. If it looks ugly that's the devs issue.

Developing for linux won't work on windows, but developing for windows will work for Linux and you need windows to be successful in gaming. Its 40% less effort for double the support. Also game dev is so rooted in windows that swapping out the tooling would be an incredible expense

hey, if AI proponents hadn’t been making up nonsense about AI tools while forcing them on us, then maybe people wouldn’t reflexively block AI tools, even when they actually work. that’s not on normies for being rational consumers. that’s on AI proponents for being systematically full of shit

It was an honor to meet with Archbishop Elpidophoros of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. In the Assembly, I was privileged to represent Astoria’s vibrant Greek community. As Mayor, I will work alongside the Archbishop to support every Greek American who calls this City home.

New project! I got frustrated with remembering cargo commands, especially since I have been hopping between languages like python and JS with their own stuff. Cargotui is inspired by lazygit and made with ratatui to get memory out of the way. github.com/Samarinara/c... @ratatui.rs @orhun.dev

The specific style of slop Ui being so prevalent might make designers even MORE important in the future. If less time is spent in code even more time can be spent on polish and overall coolness

Some of the more useless stuff like calendars are immediate uninstalls for me as well, but some things like light utilities and screenshot tools really make me happy

Regardless, it should be expected that the non techy newbie you give a new OS to will continue to use it as long as possible. It seems absurd to me to give someone a beginner OS that they will use longer than they will be a beginner

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

I'm not a security person but I don't think there is any necessary link between fde and pwquality.so. Bazzite looks cool but they are very gaming focused so unless I was encouraged to try it I wouldn't pick it up for regular use.

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

As for omarchy, I don't care how the software is made as long as its secure (ufw and required disk encryption) and just works. As janky as the bash scripts may seem, the fact that omarchy let's Normies use hyprland without editing any config files and almost never breaking is good enough for me

100

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Mint has been nothing but a buggy mess of problems and crashes on every laptop I tried it on. Bazzite doesn't really apply here because I'm talking about using a computer jot a homemade console. "Normal" distros like Debian, Fedora, and most things with KDE or Gnome crush mint and manjaro

100

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

I'm also of the opinion that "beginner friendly" distros don't actually work as intended because they have terrible software availability. If you need a stable OS use fedora or debian with flatpaks. If you need wider software availability use an Arch fork like omarchy with non CLI tools

100

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

My experience with Linux has mostly been on performance oriented distros with very good memory management (shoutout CachyOS) but it also depends on which fork of chrome/Firefox you're running

110

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

If you live in a web browser your experience is better because the lack of bloat means chrome and Firefox hog a smaller portion of available ram. Most Linux versions of software are very similar to the windows versions, just with their jank in different places.

110

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

I will continue to advocate for using Linux with windows in a docker VM like omarchy sets up for you. If something needs a lot of work to get it on Wine this is HANDS DOWN the best way to use windows apps. (Debloater scripts are borderline required though)

I definitely have a different opinion in this because I believe deepfake nudes are inherently harmful and qualify as sexual harassment. For the record, creating and distributing explicit caricatures or sketches of a real person is also harassment. Not all art is protected.

Sam Katevatis @samarinara.bsky.social · 27/01/2026

Idk about that. 99% of internet arguments are in bad faith so you just have to temper expectations and know that you may not be convincing the other party, but you may convince a later reader. There also is an interesting conversation to be had about Ai images as closer to hentai than photos
