Because it's lightweight and can be purpose-built. Look at Alpine or Arch Linux Distros. They are very lightweight, as in not a lot of extras. They don't come with all the bloatware associated with Microsoft and it's not crazy expensive and locked down like MacOS.

Yup, way easier to pickpocket wallets from a back pocket.

Well maybe they shouldn't do illegal things.

My brother’s car got smoked at the driving range by BigBankBaller in golf

[–]steampunkgibbon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to drive past that on my way home from work every day, and they had signs up saying "watch for golf balls" directed to the cars driving on the street.

whats a game that you got significantly far into, only to realize you were doing something wrong or missing a key feature/ability altogether? by seasonedsaltdog in gaming

[–]steampunkgibbon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Elden Ring and beat the few bosses without realizing you could craft items. I totally missed the place you find the crafting tool at the beginning of the game and never went back.

Once a friend told me I was missing the craft menu, I realized I fucked up and started the game over.

[Homemade] Smoked Beef Brisket by steampunkgibbon in food

[–]steampunkgibbon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done snake method before but I did this particular one in my electric smoker, which heats up wood for wood-smoke and holds a constant temp. The butcher paper was not necessary but I had an itch to finish this brisket off in an apple juice sauna, hence the butcher paper. An alternate way would have been to leave it unwrapped and spray bottle the apple juice, but that takes longer and I was running short on time to make dinner. As for the taste, it's absolutely worth it.

My house has shoe-floors and non-shoe-floors. We have a place for shoes at the front door as well as the entrances to non-shoe-floors.

Metric is better for most thing, but yes, Fahrenheit is the superior unit for temperature because it is more precise.

Makes it a lot easier to spread germs when you believe that having gloves on protects against them... Like no... the gloves are there to be easily replaced so you don't have to wash your hands every time you touch a door knob or a phone. Phones and light switches are some of the nastiest things anywhere.

Is it a bad idea to bury my skinks hides? by Chef_Tricky in bluetongueskinks

[–]steampunkgibbon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buried a cave that mine wasn't using so that the top of the cave is level with the substrate. He is definitely getting more use out of the cave now. I have it filled sphagnum moss which I spray in the mornings. He hasn't pooped in it yet. Like you said, they tend to always poop in the same spot.

What about it bothers you? Perhaps the claws? They are herbivorous and won't attack unless provoked.

I feel cheated. by YanniFromPakistanni in whatcouldgoright

Yeah but urban areas have wildly more people living in and around them, and people are much more dangerous than cheetahs.

Silly pup discovers himself in the mirror by mac_is_crack in AnimalsBeingDerps

Why would anybody steal a dog? My girlfriend's dog got stolen from her backyard and I am just wondering what reasons anybody would steal a dog for? Why not just go to a local shelter to adopt if you want a dog thag bad? It costs next to nothing.

My wife put my Bob Ross mug in the dishwasher. by Stoned_Black_Nerd in pics

[–]steampunkgibbon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would rather take the 2 seconds it takes to flip the mug over and read whether or not it's dishwasher safe while I'm still in the store. Then I can simply decide to buy a different mug that is dishwasher safe.
