People in this thread are realising they are oooold.

Sorry, it wasn’t directed towards you. I was thinking out loud.

I got one the last time I moved houses. Now I’m very glad I have one whenever I am about to send or return a package, reinforce a box or do some quick and dirty fixes that would make landlords weep.

And we’re all adult enough to handle reading the words.

It’s such a strange idea to use bad words but okay it by censoring letters out. Either use the word or don’t.

Ukraine is fighting back against a military invasion from Russia. EU is backing Ukraine because it is in our best interest to keep Russia at bay. People are supporting Ukraine and because the invasion is unjust, cruel and on the constant roll of inventing new war crimes against both military and civilians. Everybody with the slightest hint of history and knowledge of Russia knows that if they take Ukraine, they will keep moving into other neighbours. Putin is old and dying and wants to be remembered not only as a corrupt despot but as the historical leader uniting the old Soviet Union under the Russian flag. He has no intention to stop so it is up to us to make sure it doesn’t happen, because anybody powerful that stands up to him in Russia will have an unfortunate window cleaning accident.

OP is so disconnected from purpose that they think it’s a sports game where you bet on winners.

I think cancer treatment will be more costly than a new pair of earbuds or whatever your next cheap accessory that is leaking unknown chemicals.

Different countries have different languages, alphabets and keyboard layouts. Scandinavian countries keyboards are quite commonly produced together because they share most but not all of the letters, symbols and positions. This looks pretty standard to me.

Edit: As a user from respective country you learn fast to read automatically the position for shared keys before you learn touch typing or looking for an uncommonly used symbol. The real annoyance is when laptop makers switch up key positions because they think they know better.

Install both, let her try them out and decide for herself.

It’s been up and running for years. The uses I’ve come across is as a network of geo located file caching proxies. You need to have your own server up to seed the proxy instances, but then they will serve for future access until it is cleaned out from the cache.

I’m looking forward to it.

I was just thinking the other day that there should be an integration with ipfs for sharing video and other large files and media in fediverse to help offload the strain of that which is hot.

Would you care to share any examples of the math questions?

Humanity thrives on revolutionary new ways of social organisation. This is the end stages of the current one that is about to eat itself. Nobody knows what comes next. My personal guess is that humanity will keep doing this cycle of improving itself and letting decadence and greed make revolution inevitable many many many times over. People in every epoch of history so far have proclaimed it to be the last and yet here we are. For the good and the bad, it’s all part of the biological programming that makes humanity what it is.

There are terrible people everywhere and in particular everywhere online.

This is why I would never be bothered moderating and I am reluctant to release anything to the public of what I do for my own enjoyment. Cheers to moderators and people that post their art and comics and other stuff online.

Dude, this is exactly what you are doing. You have wandered into the fediverse that welcomes everybody and you are upset that not everybody agrees with you on everything and that justifies you being a dick. You are exactly the thing you are hating on in your head canon self righteous hero narrative.

Take this moment to reflect on your first instinctual mental response. Is it “but that’s because I’m right”? Think about this and what it implies.

If you think so and that this is important, maybe you could be the one that makes it happen. Start a project and gather like-minded people. That is how Linux, FOSS and community driven efforts operate. It’s useless to complain that nobody else makes the effort if you have the capabilities but can’t be arsed making an attempt yourself.

There is no authority delegating responsibilities of writing tutorials for Linux. It is the responsibility of nobody and everybody. If you can’t find one for your problem, write it yourself when you have figured it out.

For every change there is an angry Linux user. Even when it is easily disabled and never a problem again.

On the flip side - how often do you install new programs so this becomes an annoyance in the first place?

I install something new maybe once a month or less for desktop use. I have not even noticed this blip.

Somewhat more often in and for terminal use.

The clearing where we bury the unbelievers and let the forest thrive on the nutrients released from their rotting carcasses.

Well, that’s what we do here at least.

Hey OP, you were released today with performance gains!

Ha, gotchem. The drive by compliment strikes again.
