#JRE

1 post1 participant0 posts today

I am not enjoying Linux (Mint) tonight. I want to run a utility that I ran all the time on Windows. It has a Linux version-yay-but apparently wants JRE 1.6.0.

Seems I have Open JDK JRE 21.0.7 which is a lot higher than 1.6.0 so why the griping?

I feel I may be sliding into being a sysadmin rather than a computer user and this makes me want to set my computer on fire because I'm not interested in making the tool I want to use the tool...

"There were beautiful girls and this really funny guy (Hunter S Thompson). And I didn't know who he was. And we just had the most fun, ya know, making girls laugh. That's kinda what...may or may not be the reason I was brought here." #BillMurray on #JRE.

at the end, Bill tries to break the #MAGA spell. good try buddy but I'm pretty sure that's why this didn't go 3 hours...

When #ElonMusk talks about the current state of rocket technology, we're supposed to believe and trust him. Sure. He knows a lot more than me. #JRE

But when others talk about things they know much more about, they are idiots and liars. Ramp up the conspiracy machines. Do your own research etc.

"Don't trust the experts that I don't like" is what they always actually mean.

Listening to #ElonMusk on #JRE, #JoeRogan is asking the guy cutting the jobs of people who say they are doing a good job, if he himself is doing a good job. Of course he says yes. Everybody will say that. Cutting based on anti-government ideology, not evidence.

It's beyond stupid. It's a blowjob. Interview one of the 17 fired inspector generals whose job it was to look for waste etc. Or Bernie again. Have them on with Elon. Do something useful, you fucking coward.

Listening to @adam on #JRE...

1. everybody should have good health care and have all those things checked but most don't because it's not covered.

2. re fluoride, we do everything based on experts. sometimes they are proven wrong. but trusting randos and anecdotes is not how you do anything well. he just finished telling you about tooth problems that fluoride clearly helps with. they are selling toothpaste w/o flouride to your fans.

Does @zuck talk about fedi at all on his recent #JRE appearance? Trying to listen now. #SocialWeb

I think he made these changes to appease Trump but I don't think I have a problem with what he did. I never understood coming out with #threads to seemingly compete with #xitter and limiting political conversations on there. He says he's doing all this for free speech and I don't believe him but if they ever truly fully federate I'll have to reconsider.

Please go deeper than bad speech = block.

#Blagojevich is full of shit. I worked in the Lt Governor's office when he was governor. He was the epitome of the Chicago Dem machine politician that Republicans love to hate, yet somehow Trump has convinced his people he wasn't. I can't understand it. #JRE

edit: actually I can. both Blago and Trump have that greasy salesman shit going. it repels me but so many love that shit. it makes perfect sense why they like each other and how they can share a constituency.
