Trash's Linux Update | Parking Lot

0:00 Emergency parking lot trash. You had a Linux experience. And you were moving to Linux, but nobody heard the update. And we've seen comment after comment saying, what has trash been doing? with Linux. Is it actually still awesome? Or has he quit? What's going on? Tell us what has happened. Everybody is yearning for it.

0:22 So tell us. Yeah, my latest developments was I think like last week or two weeks ago, I made a NeoVin plugin based on Tejas telescope plugin. So I didn't like I was looking at all the two weeks for Spotify. I didn't like any of them. So then I just built one built out that was like extending telescope.

0:41 So now I can just play Spotify through telescope. So now I don't have to leave my terminal inside Linux. So that's like my newest one. And then I think I made some updates. Now I have like this sick light and dark theme switcher, which will change my background, change everything with just a click of a button.

0:55 So those are my two latest ones. As far as hardware goes, I was going to buy the Dell XPS 14, but apparently the bad thing is like you got your option is you have to buy like Copilot and all this stuff on it, which I correct me if I'm wrong. You just erase it. Yeah, but I don't want, but it actually like costs money to have those on there.

1:15 Like there's like a line item that says like Windows or Copilot, like a hundred or something dollars or something like that. I was like, okay. So I was like, I went to go look at framework. And then like the, there's like pre-orders for framework. They don't have a 14 inch. I really want a 14 inch laptop.

1:28 So I basically am picking between a Dell express 14 or the framework 13, but I don't know because since the 13 is on pre-order and 13 is kind of small, a 13 was small. I will say a 14 is much more comfy than a 13. I want, I want a 14. Well, yeah. He's firm on that. I'm firm on 14. I'm not budging from 14.

1:48 So I might have to just get the XPS 14. I just hate when I'm looking at it. Quick question. Yeah. Is the $100 for co-pilot make or break for you? Because I'm just looking right behind you and wondering that you've got some other issues in your life. It's $100. It's an opportunity. This is... No, I'm kidding, Trash.

2:08 Don't give Microsoft money. It's an opportunity cost. If he gives $100 to Microsoft for Copilot, that's $100 less Pokemon cards he gets. That's okay. Duh. My mistake. My mistake. Yeah. I was unaware of your game, Trash. Trash, what you got? What you got for us? This box was $59. Guess how much it's worth now?

2:28 79. More. 800. No, it's like 400 now, okay? But that's what I'm saying. Oh, that sucks, it's so much lower than what I guess. God, whatever, it's an investment. I hate you guys. When did you buy it? Couple years ago. Okay, that's not a bad ROI. See? That's not the worst. That's actually considered a great ROI, it's just it didn't scale.

2:52 Like you should have bought a thousand boxes. I know. Yeah, that's a good point. Well, you know what? I'm not a scalper, okay? So I do it for the love of the game. Trash, can you help me understand why is there so many fistfights that happen at Pokemon vending machines? And have you been a part of one, been next to one, or walked away from one?

3:13 Because I got to understand this PvP server that is known as Pokemon Drop Sights. Let me tell you something. Good question. I went through a phase of my life where I was like that guy that sat at the vending machine for like two hours, waiting, because there's like a timer and you have to wait, and you have to figure out the algorithm because all these vending machines have different algorithms and they only drop every 30 minutes, 45 minutes to an hour.

3:35 So what happens is while you're waiting, another filthy scumbag walks up and there's no there's no like etiquette here. It's like they can just walk up and touch the screen. They can walk like you can't just say, hey, you can't touch that. I'm like in the middle of like a rouse. Like, you know, I already look stupid.

3:49 So people will come up and just start touching the screen, which could potentially fuck up the timing. And then people get mad and then they start like wrestling and stuff. I'm like, bro, come on. So you know what I do? I just go and I walk away. Cool update though. There's like four more vending machines by me now.

4:05 I don't go to them because I don't have time anymore. But you guys check them out. Is that why you learn jujitsu is so that when you inevitably get into a fist fight, you can get them down to the ground and like submit them. I'm low key waiting for that moment to happen to me. Dude, I can imagine that.

4:21 I can imagine you've played that scenario quite a few times in your head already. I watch those same things you're watching. I'm like, those guys don't know what they're doing. I was like, you would have been asleep by now if that was me. No, violence is terrible. I want to know, though, any other, like, are you still daily driving Linux, or is it your main dev?

4:43 No, no, I do all my development on the side, on Elix right now. But what about at Netflix? Are you Linux there yet? No, I still have the MacBook. Like, I don't feel like going to IT and asking for a Linux thing. And then, like, I was talking to other people that use Linux, and sometimes they have problems with some of the stuff.

5:02 And I was like, all right. I'd just rather just keep it on my personal stuff. Like, the downside right now is I'm still... It's kind of nice to have them separate, too. Yeah, yeah. The downside is just, like, the hardware is terrible that I'm using. So I have to use all the cloud agents and all that stuff.

5:15 You know what I'm saying? I know what you're saying. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. But otherwise, I'm waiting to get a good one. It's just like it. The XPS just rubs me. Every time I'm in the cart, I'm just looking at it. I'm like, I can't do it. I can't do it. I'll send in a message today and let them know.

5:32 No, it's actually an excellent point. Having to pay Microsoft $100 to run Linux is a punch in the gut for people who want to run Linux. Yeah, and it just comes with Copilot. Like, I don't want Copilot. Just take off Windows. Take off Copilot. Just give me the laptop. That's all I want. Does the laptop have a Copilot key?

5:50 I think it actually does. But you can get it. Well, actually, it's not. We got ours. They gave us Omachi keys instead. What? Yeah. If a laptop has a Copilot key, I simply would not ever use it. I'm like, no. That goes in the middle. That's a pretty fair idea. That's why I just can't do it. Draw in the sand.

6:08 Yeah. Yeah. This podcast episode could be the place where they decide it's time to put in a line, a non-co-pilot line. Michael Dell himself said if there's enough demand, they'll do it. He said so on X.com, the everything application. Formerly known as Twitter. Formerly known as Twitter. Formerly known as X, now it's SpaceX.

6:31 X. What is it? Which way is it now? Is it space X is X? Space X dash AI slash cursor. Is the space implied? So it's just like X space. You know, like space is actually like there, but you don't say it. All right. We're way off the rails here and trash has to go. So thank you everyone for joining us in this parking lot.

6:52 Yeah. Or whatever it was just called. I don't know what that means. We've had a wonderful time. Trash has to go. Great point. Going on a plane. Thanks for keeping us on track. Bye, Trash. We'll miss you. Thanks for the parking lot, Trash. Bye. Thank you. You're welcome. Bye, everybody. See you later.

7:09 Bye. Bye. Bye. XA Highspace.com.
