Jul 25 "Signing up for an educational quest into Linux, history, or motorcycle repair actually is an incredibly effective alternative to therapy! At least for men who'd prefer to feel useful over being listened to." https://t.co/fFFkcHJ0fx 661 47 22 45.2k 232 .
Jul 25 "Happiness comes and goes, but the meaning of being directly connected by DNA to a human you brought into this world is ever lasting." https://t.co/UfgvX19233 287 16 8 29.3k 158 .
Jul 24 We got some sweet Omarchy monochrome merch going already in the 37signals supply store: https://t.co/mDIkIMNMUf https://t.co/tD1vAgVTe8 194 7 17 35.7k 135 .
Jul 24 "This was the original killer insight by the architects of the short-lived woke theocracy: If you can capture culture, you can capture capitalism. But it's one thing to capture culture, it's quite another to hold it." https://t.co/XCcgBp2pIB 261 14 16 34.1k 241 .
Jul 24 "I hope we never do discover immortality. A hundred years, give or take a decade or two, is enough. The constraint is part of what gives the duration its meaning." https://t.co/W5flzmXpWZ 687 18 90 86.1k 187 .
Jul 24 And she followed up with the take that this is why women like dad bod over the obsessive-fitness figure: It signals positively about the underlying psychology and priorities. Like Jung said: "Mentally unhealthy people are usually fanatics of healthy lifestyles". 1.5k 41 91 81.7k 262 .
Jul 24 Public companies run by professional managers rarely have any principled positions. Their actions are entirely downstream from the way the wind blows. This is actually a feature not a bug! Fix the culture, they'll follow. These new ads featuring family and fast Fords are proof. 364 14 5 28.2k 278 .
Jul 24 Building competence with computers by learning new skills and making new friends is a great way to treat your garden-variety petit depression. I bet it would beat talk therapy in a clinical study as easily as regular exercise does. Much cheaper and useful too ๐Ÿ˜„ 701 30 29 58.3k 261 .
Jul 24 Didn't think I'd use that stock drive for Windows at all. But it's actually super practical that the Beelink has two NVMe drives. Windows and Linux are thus fully separated and both are encrypted. Nice ๐Ÿ‘Œ 136 2 16 18.7k 203 .
Jul 24 Instead I just dual-booted into Windows on the Beelink. Turns out Windows is actually fine when it's just a Lightroom box. And the Beelink runs it as well or better than the Mac. About 30s from Omarchy to Windows. And here I have a 1TB NVMe! 108 1 11 19.1k 241 .
Jul 24 Short-lived experiment! Turns out the "256GB" model actually only has about 180GB free storage before I loaded any pictures!? Can't even fit my smallish Dropbox folder and a single camera dump. Should be a crime to sell a computer with this little storage. It's gone again ๐Ÿ˜‚ 366 6 42 72k 274 .

Jul 23 "It's such a symbiotic relationship. There are a ton of programmers who have become Linux curious, and @Beelinkofficial offers no-brainer options to give that a try at a bargain." https://t.co/z0Puhjo4bv 560 36 35 82k 203 .

Jul 22 Proxmox is such a great tool for testing Omarchy and Omakub releases. I just have a bunch of snapshots at different versions and times that I can upgrade to verify that stuff works. All powered by my lovely Minisforum A2 home server and accessed via @tailscale from wherever! https://t.co/SnVjkaxvuf 605 27 39 60.7k 299 .

Jul 22 Once you do, you'll realize that one person's "linux bs" is your fun adventure learning more about Linux and how computers actually work. I guarantee you that this is not time wasted. The entire internet runs on Linux! You'd do well to study. 549 8 23 27.5k 242 .
Jul 22 We now have over 2,000 people nerding out together over Omarchy, Omakub, Beelinks, and Frameworks in the Omacom Discord. If you're curious about THE NEW LINUX WAVE, you should come join us. Rarely met a more friendly, helpful bunch of computer geeks! https://t.co/AgsWlLFtm3 602 38 24 40.7k 274 .
Jul 22 For the last few Beelinks I've used, I don't even bother to boot the bundled Windows. Just plug in that Omarchy USB stick and marvel at how quickly you can get a fully productive system going. And we are going to make that even faster when we do the full ISO! 367 1 35 73.7k 259 .
Jul 22 If you keep promoting good ideas and good ideals, they'll eventually spread. We've been planting these seeds of persuasion for a quarter of a century. Now we bask in the shade of fully grown and mature conversions. https://t.co/crgRm20TFL 262 8 2 64k 238 .

Jul 21 I think the road to that dead end is finally being retraced, but its path might take as long to unwind as it did to pave. A western version of the one-child policy. It's hard to reprogram culture. But reprogram we must. Grind>family is not virtuous. 363 8 8 25.9k 252 .
Jul 21 While Europeans love to fret about the state of the American democracy, their states pursue free speech with ever-increasing authoritarian zeal, and by any means necessary. Disgraceful. 796 37 26 56.1k 185 .

Jul 19 Love to see so many @Beelinkofficial computers being bought for Omarchy! It's a great match: Superb performance at an excellent price running a free and fast Linux setup. Hard to beat the SER8 in the $500 category! 580 20 38 96.6k 214 .
Jul 19 Now we send anyone with a failed install directly to the Omarchy Discord, so the community can help diagnose, fix, and quickly usher out a new release. Rarely seen such an extremely help gang of Linux enthusiasts excited about others joining the party! https://t.co/AgsWlLFtm3 110 2 5 24.9k 276 .
Jul 19 If you tried installing Omarchy in the last few hours, you might have gotten an error preventing you from proceeding. My bad for merging a "simple fix" without verifying end-to-end installation ๐Ÿ˜„. This is now sorted! https://t.co/afwd3DQNoK 360 11 16 38k 240 .

Jul 17 "Most Europeans are allergic to anything that even smells like a commercial promise of a better tomorrow. 'Hype' is used as a term to ridicule anyone who dares to be excited about something new or different. Only a fool would believe progress is possible!" https://t.co/1MXf2tNYjQ 903 62 66 76.5k 280 .
Jul 17 Did you know the Dropbox app on mobile also does an excellent job scanning documents? TIL! I've been using CamScanner and all sorts of other apps, just to dance documents into my Dropbox. Don't need that any more! I still โค๏ธ @Dropbox. Happy customer since '08! 423 6 40 50.9k 260 .
Jul 17 Great walk-through of all the latest Omarchy v1.4 updates from LinuxBTW. Migrations really are key to making this system something that can evolve cleanly, not just as a one-off dotfiles dump. And there's another v1.5 release coming today! https://t.co/5WLIwZulzo 168 5 5 42k 263 .
Jul 16 I mentioned the trifecta of children books What Do You Do With An Idea/A Problem/A Chance on the Lex podcast. The author is Kobi Yamada, illustrated by Mae Besom. Wonderful books for kids (and their parents!). https://t.co/HGg0DXigQo https://t.co/R7DUqVjidv 1.1k 44 37 83.1k 257 .
Jul 16 This new series for learning Ruby on Rails from scratch couldn't be better timed. I've heard from a ton of programmers interested in coming on board after listening to the Lex interview. Now you have a perfect place to start! 638 35 19 53.8k 225 .

Jul 16 We used to listen to NPR's But Why in the car with the kids. When NPR then got ideologically lost somewhere along the way, we started using AI to create our own But Why. Ask it about the cosmos, about rocks, about ants, about everything. So good to have it built in! 246 3 13 42.8k 266 .
Jul 15 It's also a product of both of us knowing that the elusive exit, the early retirement, is a mirage for most creatives. It's hard to give up the game if you're good at it. Maybe even immoral! I don't know how long we'll keep going, but so far it's beaten Mojito Island hands down! https://t.co/dKI5dm4pvi 162 10 7 27.4k 303 .
Jul 15 Jason and I have worked together for nearly a quarter of a century now. Built an incredible company. Released countless products. Written four books. I never take for granted just how rare a business partnership of that duration is. And from such an unlikely beginning! 984 18 18 79.5k 269 .

Jul 11 The FSD experience has me wishing you could still preorder the Roadster 2.0. Buying FSD in 2017 was essentially a Kickstarter for the future that just delivered now. I'd vote for more of this future with my dollars any day! 613 10 28 96.6k 223 .
