Live as others say...

What bothers me about how some people think, is that many seem to think that everything is other people responsibility. And when they face the consequences of what they do, or didn't, they are quick to blame others.

It's sad to see how many really seem to believe that someone else should care for them, and solve all their needs. They take no blame for their own actions, and refuse to face the consequences that come from them. There is always an excuse for whatever happened.

The blame lies on the government, alcohol, or society. Never think of that the no one else can make them do anything, the choice to do any action is theirs alone.

By living like this, they are effectively letting other people control how they live. Which is rather annoying, since they want all the rights that the ones who actually take the responsibility of their own life, but want no of the obligations.

At the end, those individuals add nothing of value to society. Or at least no innovation, because they live only to imitate or do whatever they are told to do. They live to do what other people do, never to ask themselves why, or try to make things better.

Most of their actions are not motivated in what they want, or where they want to go. They do things because others do them, or because they are expected to do or say them.

They live the life that people expect from them, not the one they want. But, many not even question if that is the life they want, they just transit. For me, that's hardly a life worth living.

At the end, most people don't even rise their eyes to the sky and marvel. Most are contempt just living the life set before them by others.

Machenike and Linux Mint: quite a nice combo.

I've been using a Machenike L16A  with Linux Mint  as my daily driver for four months now, and I must admit that I'm impressed with how good the experience has been so far. The Machenike was recommended to me by a close friend about six months ago, since I told him that I was looking for a new laptop. He had bought one a while ago, and said that it was a solid machine. Not only that, Machenike laptops were quite a great value for the money since they are significantly cheaper than comparable laptops from the competitions. And to be honest, when I got my laptop i expected to be so, but not to the extent it has been so far. After four months, my laptop feels really snappy and the performance is just great. And since I upgraded to Linux Mint 22 Wilma, it only has gotten better. One of the areas where I see most improvement, in on the Bluetooth connectivity. It connects more consistently with the three Bluetooth headphone I use, and now I can see how much battery the headphones I...

Machenike L16A: a great value for the money.

I recently got a Machenike L16A to replace the HP laptop I've been using for about 4 years now, and it has been quite a good upgrade. The value for the price has been excellent, it has really felt like an upgrade. Specially going from 8Gb of RAM to 16Gb. I specially notice the better performance when at work, since I use a remote desktop. I simply don't see as much slowdowns on the same use. Most of the time, at work I've the remote desktop app, Firefox , Thunderbird , Spotify , or sometimes Rhythmbox , open at the same time and having 16Gb of RAM gives the performance I need since at time around 6-7Gb are used. I also feel the AMD Ryzen CPU has been quite an upgrade, since it has more cores and threads than the Intel CPU my HP laptop has. That makes for a better user experience. But, where I see the better user experience is on the keyboard, and display side of things. The keyboard keys got stuck often, making the track pad unusable and characters to repeat themselves. ...

Linux Mint 22.1 Xia: a solid point release.

It has been about a week since I upgraded to the Linux Mint 22.1 Xia,  and it has been one of the best point releases Linux Mint has had in a while. The change that has proven to have the most impact on me, as an user, is the ability to change the power setting on my laptop. I've seen a mayor battery life improvement when I set the power setting to power saving when not plugged in, and one of several hour. It has gone up from about 4 hours, to about 8 from a full battery charge. Other than that, it has been a great point release so far for my daily use. Now, I'm looking forward for Wayland to supersede X11 . And that's why I like Linux Mint, it give a modern OS that only changes things when necessary and it just works. It isn't at the bleeding edge of Linux, but I don't need to be at the bleeding edge. I just need at the system that just work.
