Feel free to AMA about picking a pet/reptiles in general, I have a lot of recommendations for that!

  • No I did not see that, link me to it? I can’t find it, a primary source please.

    also i’m fairly certain such meat wouldn’t do anything? have you ever had animal meat? it would also have such chemicals and be mostly indistinguishable in terms of adrenaline content. You’d just digest it?

    “Adrenochrome is mass produced and commercially available to the public, and is not a controlled substance.”

    so you can just… get it without that?















  • Even if llm’s are a dead end, the amount of money going into creating AI dramatically pushes forward the date of its existence, we just emulated a fly brain, they’re doing a mouse next. This is a somewhat undeniable path to real intelligence, it will happen soon, even if the compute needed for a human brain turns out to be immense, the fly intelligence basically proved all you need is the connectome, so uh, yeah. If someone figures out how to automate the work that was done on the fly on a larger scale we’ll be there real quick.


  • If you don’t like the immutability then use nobara.

    Tbh I don’t think the issues with immutability are CURRENTLY there.

    you said this:

    “Entirely community-driven (so suffer much less from corporate influence, and are better from the Linux “freedom” standpoint compared to Fedora, OpenSUSE, etc.)”

    give me one example of a time this mattered

    “Widely adopted (have extensive communities supporting the repos, a large knowledge base and active forums)”

    fedora obviously has this.

    “Not heavily opinionated (allow proprietary programs, work with systemd, etc.)” And this.

    i conclude that you have still not made any case that there is even one reason to use manjaro that isn’t the cost of switching.


  • that’s not an argument to what I said in fact it’s basically exactly what I said, manjaro users only use manjaro because it’s what they’re already using, not because it’s better designed for any particular usecase.

    “There’s literally no reason to use this distro that isn’t just that you’re already used to it.” Was exactly what I said.


  • you’re right, I oversimplified, bazzite is great because it’s unhindered by patents and preinstalls the drivers, I’d recommend a community fedora fork, the key being that it’s much easier to turn fedora into this than arch.

    manjaro is this but with way more footguns, I say this having maintained a bunch of manjaro systems for people, switching them to bazzite fixed nearly all of my maintenance burden, because it’s easy to remove them from fedora but impossible with arch, intentionally, and by design.

    If you want something easy that just works arch is very deliberately designed to not be that, on purpose, even.
