The big problem is that we’re not just up against plain stupidity, we’re also up against organised and weaponised stupidity that is being enabled and fanned by those in power and the media, and also their billionaire backer donors, who want to drag us all the way back to the medieval ages.

That’s much more sadistic and worse than plain stupidity which we are all guilty of from time to time until we learn better. With organised and weaponised stupidity, they don’t want us to learn better, because our ignorance benefits their wallets.

That terminal he is typing on is pretty much the physical ancestor of the terminal emulators we use today in Linux!

Yeah, the sound quality is pretty bad!

I’m now more glad than ever that Reddit banned me when they did, I would have hated to see it yet again becoming even more worse.

I’ll often order stuff from Ebay/Amazon even though the shop is right next door. It’s partial anxiety but also mostly pure laziness.

Weren’t elders/shamans/gurus looked up to as sort of spiritual and worldly advisor/authority figures back then? Granted, it’s not the same as being a chief/leader, but they talked, and their community listened and generally followed their advice.

Explorers 1985! I love this movie to bits and never knew it was considered a flop until recently.

If it helps the nights began to get longer again on the 22nd of June, the day after the longest day of the year! That’s what keeps me going.

We’re advising her to be cautious, not advising her to call the whole thing off. What’s so wrong with that?

It’s quite possible that he is indeed a generous person, but still be careful. Truly generous people like that are very far and few in between, at least in my own experience, so most are usually that nice early on when they want something from you. Not trying to put him down, because we don’t know him… But be careful.

How long have you known him? If you two have only just met or met very recently then it’s very weird behaviour for sure. Heck it’s a little weird him being this forward so soon, if you did know each other only as friends before this.

I get what you are saying, but games are not streamed from the discs anymore and haven’t since the PS3/Xbox 360 days. They are installed to the SSD which then loads up the game as normal.

They sadly have too much confidence in their AI banning system.

There have been reports of people being permabanned for no reason they can think of, and then later being unbanned after some time. They are fast becoming like Facebook in that regard. Whatever your reason for being permabanned, count it as a blessing in disguise.

I was upset at first because I was permabanned for sharing pics of my own body even though they were posted in the right NSFW subs(I had an adult only alt account, that got banned and then when I logged into my SFW one I was permabanned for ban evasion even though that was my 5 year old main, go figure :/)… but i’ve come to realise that Lemmy/Piefed are much better than Reddit in many ways that I wonder why I did not come here sooner!

It wouldn’t actually be so bad if everything else wasn’t fast becoming unaffordable as well. If bills, rent, shopping and other expenses were not already sky high, then we might be able to afford the higher game prices.

Try it and see how it works for you. There’s really no telling what it will be like because each system is different and will respond to the different distros of Linux and their kernel versions in different ways. For a time Fedora worked better on my laptop but Kubuntu caught up and hardware support was improved in their newest kernel so now I’m back on that xD

But yeah, for my 2025 laptop Fedora was extremely stable and I never ran into a problem. I just missed the big repos of the Debian/Ubuntu family.
