ROFL He should be a writer for The Onion!

As a casual user of Linux (no strong inclination or skill in coding), I tend to veer towards distros that minimize the Terminal usage in favor of graphical user interfaces for accomplishing most changes. Modern Linux distros are a lot friendlier in terms of installing Software from a distro store and graphic drivers via a graphical interface. You won’t ever fully be able to eliminate the terminal usage, as it’s inevitable for certain tasks like adding PPAs on Ubuntu for example. It was honestly word salad for me during my first foray into the Linux world; but now I have a basic understanding of the Linux kernel and how it functions on a very surface level. I know enough to string commands together and understand the reason why it’s necessary to do things in a certain order.

I’m not sure if you’d have a good time with Linux, I’m hesitant to tell you to take the plunge because you will have to faff around with the terminal and use commands at times to accomplish certain things. That requires both focus and patience, something which is naturally difficult for those with ADHD (unless a hyperfixation is quite strong). I’d give yourself time to think about switching for a while, ultimately you might be better sticking with the current OS that you’re using.

Good, coordinated strikes and marches in the places that hurt Amazon the most with prepared, concise demands is a great strategy! Corporations need to understand what they are doing to people is wrong and people won’t just take it anymore.

Before I had access to the internet; These were basically my, ‘Don’t die, eat something easy’ list of relatively quick foods back in the darkest, deepest depression days (turns out my brain chemistry reacts horribly to antidepressants and antipsychotics). I was just an anxious dude that didn’t know it due to being heavily medicated.

That annoyed me with Windows too, however, Active Hours adjusted to the times that I actively used my PC. As I kept my PC up to date and never kept it running while not in use for too long, I’ve never been threatened with a forced restart randomly. That being said, a user should have full control over their PC. They will though in turn be responsible for any poor outcomes due to making poor decisions.

I ended up choosing a Linux distro over Windows because I have absolute control over my PC at all times. Freedom to modify, to potentially break, but also easily recover my distro if I truly fuck up.

I haven’t specifically seen anyone go off the rails when it comes to emoji usage on Lemmy; I can only comment on my particular feelings about emoji: Like any tool, emoji can be used in ways which are confusing. However, the value of these little images conveying additional context to written text is useful. There is so much of the personal voice which is lost with written words, unadorned with body language, tone of voice, and facial expressions. Emoji are like a written solution to this issue (for those that don’t pick up on context on words alone). I am fine with the usage of emoji.

I do agree that motion capture and voice actors should be given a heads-up about the scene they are about to shoot. Nobody should be asked on the spot to ‘perform’ a disturbing or explicit scene without first at least being able to make mental preparations! It would certainly help to have some more ladies assisting in the capture to make it less awkward for a woman acting/voicing such a scene.

Oof, yeah, Death By Appointment might be a better name as I couldn’t see them offering on the spot meat suit evacuation! It’s a process to get approval for getting a humane end to one’s medical suffering. They’d likely be too swamped to do it any other way.

I’d love to know, as this individual’s instance is one I’d love to block, I don’t want to run into them in the wilds of Lemmy if it could be helped. They’ve got to have a lot of weird takes that I simply don’t want to see.

ROFL Way to sink a vessel sooner, CEOs are so ridiculous! I used to care, but now that I have no skin in the game; I just laugh. Or fight if they try to bring their bullshit to another platform.

We know he wasn’t as the ‘clean-up’ from the fallout caused by a supposed sarcastic remark is truly a secondary gaff. You were serious, couch fucker, and we know it. So go make sweet love to couches, you weirdo, and leave US citizens alone.

Argh, this is so infuriating! This needs to stop, we need proper protection against this bullshit. Clearly, the current way of doing things is insufficient. I can only hope that real change comes by actively fighting for it.

Beacon, a shining fur friend! He’s an adorable best boy ever, he has such a gentle demeanor that could likely soothe the most troubled of souls.

Same, I truly love to see these weirdos getting destroyed on TV. It won’t sway the cultists overmuch but general population will likely be, “I don’t wanna vote for that.”

If anything, this is a sign that Rachel Scott is highly employable to make that insecure orange wanker go off the rails! He’s a weirdo who desperate cultists want to get elected. Not worthy of being handled with kid gloves, grill his ass!

So freaking cute, I can’t contain the squee that wants to be let out!

Its only one LTS Version behind, but its still very usable. I have confidence that COSMIC is going to be just as easy to use as Pop!_OS is now. This gives them an opportunity to make even more changes that will improve the end user experience. The System76 team knows what they are doing and won’t release a busted product.

Pop!_OS is built different than other distros, I only had to apply 1 tweak and was minor AF. Honestly, if they were up to date with Ubuntu, I’d still be using that banger distro. First they must build COSMIC, their Rust based DE.

With tweaking, I’m sure most games would be just fine running on the Steam Deck. It’s just a matter of figuring out the right settings.

I find older Windows games have the most issues like Oblivion or Morrowind if you install the stock standard GOTY. However, there’s an open version of Morrowind that can be run via Lutris its just a bitch to get Lutris to work. Persistence is key.

They are being disruptive in a way that isn’t kind; arrests would be the best way to deal with them. They are white nationalists, shouting slurs at black people who are fellow citizens in the USA, we should not let them believe this behavior will go unpunished. It will make it worse in the future, enabling hate groups to thrive is something a sane country should never allow.
