  So I am currently using KDE Plasma as my Desktop on my main computers. What are viable alternatives? I need something that will play nice with an NVIDIA GPU.

  Folks, does anyone have any work? It's becoming urgent for me to find more work now. I'm trying. I need at least €1500 by the end of next week. I am going to try and get a loan today, but I'm not sure if that will even be possible. I'll do software dev, embedded dev, simple PCBs, QA of software, Small part CAD Designs, pixel art, take minutes of meetings. Anything please. #getfedihired #underemployed

  People need to realise that one can't actually take a truly "apolitical" stance about any issue. Sitting on the fence about something or ignoring an issue is also a political position. An individual or organisation can never be truly "apolitical". On some level, almost every social interaction has a political element. #bothsidesism #whataboutism

  Something that fascinates me, and maybe this is just my mostly Irish and Scottish heritage coming through, but I have never viewed the "UK" as a "country". It is true the "UK" is a sovereign state but it is composed of 3.2 countries that don't really see eye to eye and don't get me started on "English culture" because that is at least three or four distinct cultures. Even the first part of my life in England, it was *always* England we lived in. Ne...

  Ah, I see FFG are trying to do the "High Vis and Helmets are going to be mandatory for pedal cyclists" authoritarian bullshit again. 🙃 A high vis vest wont make me more visible to drivers, but a trans pride flag cape would make me more visible and rapidly increase the likelihood that "fellow" motorists would murder me. #sarcasm #iepol #fuckffg #cycling #ireland #bullshit #transrightsarehumanrights

  Hi folks, I'm really in a tough financial position at the moment. If you can offer any help or even if you need programming or electronics tuition or something or if you have any gamedev or coding work. I need to cover €400 of bills tomorrow and I have €15. I have 30 hours a month but it just isn't enough to pay bills after busineess overheads. https://ko-fi.com/alannakelly #getfedihired #MutualAidRequest #lookingforwork

  I'm not anti the general field of Artificial Intelligence, it's an extremely interesting subject. I am deeply skeptical of the LLM/GPT products that are being deceptively sold to people as "AI solutions" or claiming to be the science fiction of Artificial General Intelligence. The cult-like following developing around them is even more disturbing, it is like something from Dune or W40K. Please learn how these things actually work, even on a basic level, before...

  Wow, businesses and people really do abuse Open Street Map without thinking. I don't get why people don't respect the licences and tile usage policies, it really isn't that hard and they aren't complicated policies to comply with. #OpenStreetMap

  How on earth is this sort of thing legal? This is simply a slum. It's ironic because I believe houses such as this were used as such from the early 1800s to mid 20th century. This is just neo-colonialism. Creation of slums needs to be banned. https://www.thejournal.ie/clare-street-dublin-bed-spaces-7007748-Apr2026 #Ireland #slumlords #landlordscum #neocolonialism

  Getting very annoyed at the "just buy an electric car" crowd. Even second hand the cost *to buy* one is still prohibitive and one is going to give me a loan right now when at best I'm taking home just over a grand a month. /rant

  I hate to say it, but I wish people would realise the Irish Government can't really do anything about fuel prices. Yes, they can reduce excise duty, but only so much before that causes other problems. Protesting the price of Diesel isn't going to achieve much right now. Making EVs affordable to the average person and removing the tarrifs on Chinese EVs would be much better. #FuelPrices #Ireland #Diesel #motoring

  For some reason I have just been reminded of Unpleasant Horse, a parody of Robot Unicorn Attack, I wonder if you have preserved it? @gamesthatwerent I remember playing a prototype of this and laughing uncontrolably at my desk. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unpleasant_Horse #deadgames
