While I love to jump on the anti-Elon bus, I have to query: the highest accident rates, or highest accident rates as a percentage of vehicles on the road? If you have 10 Tesla cars on the road, and there are 2 MGs on the road, and 2 Telsas and one MG crashes, then what? 20% of Tesla vs. 50% of MG, but also that could be framed as ‘double the number of Teslas crash compared to MGs’ or ‘Tesla has the highest accident rate of any auto brand’.

Sam Altman has just been hired by Microsoft. LinkedIn

Yes. But if 90% of your friends use it, and have groups in it where things are planned and organised, then by not having it you’re going to be missing out on a big chunk of things going on around you.

The challenge is that these days a phone is rarely used for calls or texts, but used with apps like WhatsApp or Teams or Slack or your mobile banking app, or things like that. And so there would need to be a critical mass of these apps to get me to switch.

I think it gives everyone the same list of 29, but it’s the order that’s important. Gentoo came back as my top. I use Void which came back as 4th in my list.

Well at least at the end of the questions the distro I use (Void) was somewhere near the top of the list (4th).

In fairness I can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that the majority of relationships will fail. If I were to take a random Facebook user who updated their status to ‘in a relationship’ and said that the relationship wouldn’t be successful, I’d likely have a 99%+ success rate.

Its got the same ‘start raw’ that you get with Arch, so you can build it exactly the way you want. But you can also choose to go MUSL instead of GNU if you choose, and it’s non-systemd if that makes a difference.

It’s rolling release, but still stable, so I can upgrade after leaving it a month and be confident it’s unlikely to break as a result.

Hahaha that’s ok. I’ve tried them all except Slackware. Even gave LFS a go. But Void is home for me.

There was a day when I wouldn’t have dreamed of seeing Void in a list. I’m glad those days are gone.

Filesystem Table.

It’s a shortening. Not a shortening of File Systemtable though.

I use it as my primary home machine, running bspwm. I enjoy it, and find once configured it just works. Primarily web browsing, Kicad and OpenSCAD, and some Python development.

Puts our Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV’s 30km after a 5 hour charge to shame!

Because I don’t want my Firefox window overlapping my Vim window.

Gotcha, I’d misunderstood the context I think.

Can’t see how realistically it could be done.

I’m an individual. I register a domain using my surname. I upload a blog of my keyboard building. Additionally, I link to my git repo with the stl and gerber files.

All good so far.

But then someone asks if I can build one for them, as they don’t have a 3D printer/can’t solder/whatever. So we agree on a price and a deal is done. Still ok?

A few people ask, and I figure it’s a nice side hustle, so I build a form and une my bank’s payment gateway. Still ok?

It’s bringing in some decent money now. I’ve quit my day job, and hired someone to help me with all of my soldering. Because I need to pay them, I set up a company to pay them out of. The only thing that changes on my website is a little bit of text at the bottom that now says <surname> pty ltd. Not ok anymore. But who is going to police that?

Not Gentoo based, but have you considered having a play with Void? It’s a stable rolling release, bare bones with it’s own init. Very customisable. I’m using it as my daily driver outside work use (Linux isn’t allowed), and not having any problems, while still getting to tinker.
