I feel like the marketing for Artificial Idiocy comes down to three words: "Resistance is futile."
As put aptly by one text (which I have yet to read): "When you trick somebody into participating in a small-time fraud, it's called a 'scam'. But when the scam is so big that people have no choice but to participate, it's called 'economics.'"
Man, I swear in DS9:"Bar Association" that Rom had the 2016 DC Flintstones comic pulled up on his PADD while doing research.
P.S Like the person in the video, I too use Linux.
BTW usually the graphics glitches weren't immediate, but would come after waking it from sleep a few times.
As an ex-Linux on Surface Go 1 user, I didn't like the experience. Under Debian Testing, it was always mostly usable, but I'd come across the weirdest bugs, like graphics glitches. Also, last time I checked, the camera was miserable to set up - I got it working, but it's really weird. Secure boot was also really painful.
Running Linux on the Surface Go made me curse the Surface line and put the Go in a junk drawer. I might go back to it one day, but I have no reason at the moment. Still, if you already own one, it's worth a shot.
If you go ahead, though:
- Whatever easily supported the linux-surface kernel.
- I really don't know. I don't quite use Linux in that manner.
- No. SD cards are slow, so the system will take an eternity to load. Put personal files on the SD and the install internal, not the other way around.
- I have no idea about the pen, but the keyboard mostly worked fine. I remember it having problems in the Debian installer, so I had to use a USB hub dongle and a keyboard to install, but after that I remember it working pretty well both mainline and linux-surface.
Wasn't he always kind of a cartoonish mustache twirler? I mean, he basically invaded Cardassia after the manipulation of his meme-ishly large ego.
The truth is Gowron is a cartoon, and that's why we love him.
The secret about TNG:"Cause and Effect" is that it took place on February 2nd, 2368. 😉
Debian is on the right track. XFCE might work - I remember it running pretty well on a laptop with 4 gigs.
Rom before becoming Nagus: "One day, Brother will die and I'll get the money."
Not necessarily - pavucontrol switched to GTK4, and there are a lot of other applications that I use that are on it as well. If XFCE stays on X11, I wouldn't be able to run any application that updates to GTK5 (except through some hack like running Weston nested in X, which I used to do when I used Waydroid).
Stares in Debian Testing. (Though I use Bookworm on my laptop, probably soon to be Trixie. Nice thing about Trixie is I'll no longer have to use the Backports kernel on my Thinkpad and can just stay on the LTS one.)
Let's just hope XFCE can finish the transition before then. If not, I am not looking forward to having to shop for a new DE.
I'm not sure about NVIDIA drivers. Otherwise, it depends on what kernel your distro is using; if it's Debian, there's a chance you might have problems, though you could install the backports kernel, which I do on my Thinkpad E16.
"Generations of warriors from our house have jumped with this jump rope. Use it with honor, my son."
On a side note, I have no idea if kids these days do jump ropes. Heck, when I was young not too long ago, jump ropes were just those mythical things from the TV - I don't know if I ever saw one on a school campus (granted, I'm also on the spectrum, so it may have just been I was so bad at physical activities like that that I ignored them).
I'll just predict there's a good chance someone's going to respond something like, "they're always on them tablets these them days", to which I say, Yes, that's a factor in the problem, but I also feel like there's declining social opportunities for kids in general. If I go on, it'll turn into a rant that I don't think fits the tone of Risa.
Why do we even bother with data at all? Let’s just not exist - humans greatly increase attack surface.
I think it wasn't actually Stallman - it's a common misattribution.
Depends on your hardware and distro. Linux-libre not be so bad assuming it’s one of those old Thinkpads. Also, though, if you’re on Debian; they deblob their kernel already and put the blobs in separate packages so they can be optionally used. Don’t install any blobs and you’re good.
“…And the worst part is I can live with it.”
It's mostly a breeze. The only misery I can recall is I remember I had a wonky knockoff Arduino board that kept jumping serial ports, but that was a hardware issue.
Apple should experience bij.
Gul Dukat on Empok Nor: I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage called the blood of the exploited working class, but they've overcome their shyness; now they're calling me "your highness", and a world screams, "Kiss me, son of god."
Any plot involving Joran Dax: Each night I lie awake, completely alone. A voice is speaking, and I tremble, for it's not my own, my own. I can't ignore it, although I try. The intrusive whisper fascinates me.

Murf in PRO: Mysteerious whisper. Mysteeeeeeeeeeeerious whisper.
LD Minding the Mind's Mines: And what they found was just a statue standing where the statue got me high.
ENT finale: Everybody dies frustrated and sad
When Dukat killed Jadzia (or Rick Berman on the floor of his residence tomorrow 😉): Now it's over; I'm dead and I haven't done anything that I want, or I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do.
Let me guess: "Birdhouse in your Soul" and "Istanbul"? (Was Constantinople. Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople. Been a long time gone, Constantinople. It's a Turkish delight on a moonlit night. Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople, so if you've a date in Constantinople, she'll be waiting in Istanbul. Even old New York, was once New Amsterdam. Why'd they change it? I can't say; people just liked it better that way.)
TMBG's back catalog is very chungus, though - lots of stuff about death.
