Plus, each of those options are more or less forever if we never get around to carbon sequestration that actually works.
Obligatory reminder that the easiest by far way of sequestering carbon is to simply not extract it from the ground in the first place.
Demonstrating the need for jail breaking firmware for smart TVs (and repealing the DMCA anti-circumvention clause that enforces Tivoization) in two different ways at once:
If the SNAP program is supposedly unable to function because the government is shut down, how is it still somehow finding the money and manpower to enforce its regulations?
No money or manpower to help the public, yet somehow plenty to harm.
I’ve been playing Hogwarts Legacy1, and one nice thing about it is the way it separates out gear items from “appearances.” Each piece of gear comes with its default appearance, but also unlocks access to it permanently, so you can choose any appearances you’ve unlocked without having to wear or even keep the items that granted them.
1 don’t judge; I didn’t buy it – it came with Amazon Prime2
2 okay, that you can judge me for
Ah, another ulterior motive for the rise of SUVs and crossovers.
It sounds to me like the toolchain to build apt itself, not stuff packaged by it.
Do any of those architectures even still have new CPUs being designed for them in the last decade or so?
If all you want is file sharing, like the blog post author wants, I don’t understand what’s wrong with something like a plain old SFTP server.
The weaker (permissive instead of copyleft) license alone is a reason to be suspicious of both the project and OP. At this point, it’s just telegraphing plans to eventually go proprietary and enshittify.

only in my very niche communities that aren’t likely to be targeted for this kind of bullshit.
I think that’s a point that deserves more attention. Considering the “long tail” of niche communities and that the propaganda surely isn’t evenly distributed, it’s very possible that the big default and political subs are mostly propaganda and other shilling at this point.
I love that top comment:
My favorite thing about Tom is that he is a very clearly talented musician, and he uses his powers to make shitposts.
Of course, he has some awesome non-shitpost music, too. Namely, this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLzxuIfD9rU

First of all, it was Massachusetts (edit: damn, I apparently can’t tell m-states apart either), not Michigan (although some articles claim he was planning to target some Michigan politicians too).
Second, that’s proving my point, not refuting it. The assertion I was challenging was that it was in “our” (i.e. leftist, or at least liberal) repertoire too, but what you cited was the common case of a right-winger targeting progressives, not the other way around.
In theory, I guess. But when’s the last time that sort of thing actually happened in the U.S.? Even perpetrators of “kirkings” of right-wingers are usually either infighting right-wingers themselves, or are just nutjobs with some motive other than politics entirely (e.g. impressing Jodie Foster).
It’s pretty hard to fit all of what you just said into a meme.
I see that now!
Anyway, if what your meme is actually about is people that only use the browser and then refuse to switch but still constantly complain then yeah you’re dead on.
My meme is indeed sort of about that, but it’s even more about pushing back on the other thread and similar sentiments, where their flying monkeys defend their useless complaining and then try to make us out as the bad guys for responding in any way short of wallowing in their misery with them.
Yeah it’s a tough switch. It’s a lot like getting out of a relationship that you know isn’t gonna work, but every time you go to end it you think “hey it isn’t that bad right NOW is it?” and put it off.
A clean break would be faster and easier for everybody involved.
Exactly! And having enablers of that toxic relationship, like the person quoted in that other post, scolding people for making that exact point only makes the situation even worse.
I was using “you” in the general sense the same way the post I was quoting used it, not to address @prettybunnys in particular. In fact, I’m well aware that specific-you was not among the general-“you” I was addressing, as I referenced people with “your [Windows] problems” and specific-you had made it clear that you’re a Linux user. (Cute tattoo, BTW, although I’d have believed you even without the picture.)
Anyway, I apologize for not making that clear enough. I should’ve noted it explicitly like I did in this other comment, but I thought the context was sufficient. Or maybe I just got lazy, and have no good excuse. Either way, personally attacking you was not what I intended.
First of all:
Just use this other thing instead” has never been a good faith solution
Bullshit. That is very often an excellent solution!
Second, the thing this post was made in response to is as follows, and I quote:
Sometimes people just want to be able to complain about Windows or iOS without being told about Linux.
…
If the obvious reply to the post is “use Linux,” as a rule, do not post that. You are not adding anything.
I counter with this: if you [speaking generally, the same way the the original post was – not referring to @prettybunnys specifically] know the obvious reply you’re gonna get is “use Linux” and you don’t want to hear it, don’t fucking post your complaint in the first place because you [again, speaking generally] aren’t adding anything! You [still speaking generally] are not entitled to complain and then tone-police the responses you solicited! Who the fuck do you [even more speaking generally] think you are, to believe that you have the right to bother us publicly with your problems [continuing to speak generally, and that part makes it obvious because “your problems” refers to Windows problems and @prettybunnys apparently has a Tux tattoo] but we don’t have the right to ‘bother’ you with the solutions to them in response?! How is that behavior anything other than incredibly toxic and condescending?
That’s nothing; I cut mine in the Age of Aquarius!
