@xgerman Macron had a decade to address the issues that caused the fascists in France to gain strength and instead he continued austerity and all the things that cause fascists to gain strength.

@w7voa so let me get this straight. When Romney ran against Obama he was a plutocrat that was going to ship everyone's job overseas, but now a decade later we should run him as the Democratic nominee?

That says a LOT more about the Democratic party than it says about Mitt Romney.

@molly0xfff I'm just trying to figure out what repository I contributed to that would be considered web3. I absolutely do not work in that space.

@molly0xfff The NSO token, someone's been cramming these in people's car door handles in my neighborhood. QR code removed.

@molly0xfff The FLT one is weird because it's someone from a gmail address spamming me about my web3 contributions (which I have not done any) and is asking me to claim some token and give them a finder's fee.

@molly0xfff have some more crypto scams that I've encountered this weekend. Details in thread, but it's for a token called NSO and another called FLT

@edmundo just a note, FreeBSD does have a compatibility layer for Linux where you can run Linux applications. For CLI apps it works great but for more complicated apps I've had some trouble getting them to work, so it's not for the faint of heart. It's a great OS and it's always getting better but some stuff like the Slack desktop client, haven't figured out how to get it running yet so it's not 100%. A high 95% right now

@edmundo ZFS filesystem, has really great documentation (The FreeBSD handbook) and I really hate how `journalctl` on Linux ruined logging

@alexmath @skyfaller I never have the time to migrate my configuration to neovim.

So I keep using MacVim/gVim.

I'm sure neovim is great I just don't have the time to migrate

@xgerman yep I tried using WSL2 for stuff and it was okay for some stuff but for day to day tasks I need my mutt and irssi which don't benefit from being containerized.

Would love to grab a drink and catch up.

@skyfaller literally for everything else, I'm doing visual mode with click and drag highlighting via gVim.

@skyfaller honestly I don't go crazy with modal editing anyway. The big thing for me is `cw` and `dw`, `jw` and `bw`. The main thing that is an advantage is that if you want to stay on the home row, you can. It's really just the motion keys that are a lifesaver.

@skyfaller Vim/gVim, but that's maybe because I have 10+ years using it

I'll still keep a Windows partition for gaming, but everything else is migrated over to FreeBSD. I don't play a lot of games so who knows how often it'll actually get used.

I tried to run a Frankenstein cygwin setup on Windows so I didn't have to dual boot, but honestly it was a shitshow. I was trying to optimize for boot and startup (because Windows is so bad about that), and had forgotten how fast a FreeBSD or Linux desktop can boot.

I have finally gotten fed up with Windows 10/11 and moved to running FreeBSD 14 as my main OS on the gaming rig. It is incredible how bad Windows is, because the FreeBSD/KDE5 experience is NIGHT AND DAY. So much faster and snappy.
