Comment on Please recommend me a Linux distribution that is super-stable and never make me install again, but at the same time allows me to have some newer packages with ease (xpost /r/FindMeADistro) in ~comp
povey LinkI love debian stable + kde + flatpak. Flatpak gives me the few applications I want (sublime text, telegram) that aren't up to date in debian stable, and everything else is a rock. And it is themeable!I love debian stable + kde + flatpak. Flatpak gives me the few applications I want (sublime text, telegram) that aren't up to date in debian stable, and everything else is a rock.

Battery life of ~5 days is amazing, and I'm also impressed there are no scratches on the thing. I can't speak to Spotify as I didn't get the music version, but I'm very happy with the fitness tracking side of it.

I'm sure Castro would get some cabinet or director position relating to immigration too.I hadn't thought about positions but those actually make a lot of sense.

povey LinkI wonder what it's like to be in congress, go on national TV and be like "EVERYONE I WORK WITH SUCKS AND THE WHOLE THING SHOULD CHANGE!", and then go back to work.I wonder what it's like to be in congress, go on national TV and be like "EVERYONE I WORK WITH SUCKS AND THE WHOLE THING SHOULD CHANGE!", and then go back to work.

I had little information on about half the field going in, him being one of them, and he came off as surprisingly competent and passionate about issues. Perhaps the field he was against wasn't the strongest, but he seemed in the top 4 for sure last night.

povey LinkI'm definitely not far down the EDC path, but I paid more than one would expect for Magnus HangKey and some clips. However, I love them and would absolutely spend the money over if I ever lost them.I'm definitely not far down the EDC path, but I paid more than one would expect for Magnus HangKey and some clips.

I greatly miss /r/nba. The NBA finals just concluded last night and the draft is coming up, and I just lost my main source of information about the sport. There were a lot of twitter posts that made it to reddit, but it saved me from 1) getting a twitter account (bleh) and 2) filtering through all the other tweets that I don't actually care about. Not sure where I'm gonna go next for following the sport.
