Dont forget that the vast majority of users either doesnt know Linux, distrusts Linux, has heard rumors at any point in time about some feature or component not working as perfectly as under windows, is uninterested in computers beyond their daily usage function, or finds themselves in a social circle or job environment hostile to Linux.

What Linux needs to get widely adopted is settle for one central distro, iron out all bugs and compatibility issues and do a bunch of testing with windows users to determine what differences they are confused by. The goal must be to create total feature and compatibility parity with windows, and make the whole process so incredibly simple that even absolute morons with zero interest in computers can both use it instinctively and not miss anything their windows used to do. Then run a massive adoption campaign.

Now I know many aspects of this are directly opposed to the fos ethos, but if Linux ever wants to claim market share they need to spend big on it and pick up the users where they are; in a place of zero user ability and a lot of ignorance.

I mean, I also acknowledged them as philosophical dilemmas in another comment, but I suppose it is my own fault for not clarifying that in the first.

Very interesting stuff, thank you!

Albeit the post seems a bit esoteric for lemmyshitpost without the extra context

Not op, no idea either. Best I can make of it is some sort of surrealist fifth level multi layered reference to several memes at once? The only one I know is the trolley problem one

Yes of course, not utilizing the resources in the waste is entirely illogical in a zero resources environment. Just that we would probably run it through some sort of purification system first to break down the dangerous contents

We dont fertilize our agriculture with human waste as is, there are far too many diseases and such to be transmitted. I believe the north koreans are doing this, and are often suffering from parasites and disease transmitted this way.

To use it on the moon they would need bioprocessors first that break down the waste thoroughly

Having the pixel buds myself, I feel your pain. Do a little bit of physical activity and at least one side gets loose and slippery.

I found that I simply dont have symmetrical ear canals, I use the mid size plug on one and the smallest plug on the other ear. That way they seem to fit somewhat reliably.

Dont you worry, mint provides a detailed step by step tutorial on how to do things:

My mind went here:

My personal belief still is that the prohibitive approach is futile and ultimately more harmful than the alternative: embrace the technology, promote it and create deepfakes of everyone.

Soon the taboo will be gone, the appeal as well, and everyone will have plausible deniability too, because if there are dozens of fake nudes of any given person then who is to say which are real, and why does it even matter at that point?

This would be a great opportunity to advance our societal values and morals beyond prudish notions, but instead we double down on them.

E: just to clarify I do not at all want to endorse creating nudity of minors here. Just point out that the girl in the article wouldn’t have to humiliate herself trying to do damage control in the above scenario, because it would be entirely unimportant.

Am a bazzite user myself, and haven’t had those issues at all. I would recommend joining the discord as well, they have a reasonably active community there

Not op, but i dont care much for the show myself either. I used to, when it was new and something different, but I believe I have grown past the pseudointellectual, but actual college humor. It just hits different these days

Fair points, but this is also a numbers game, and the vast majority of people is not romantically interested, or rather, compatible with them. Seems logical to me that people end up alone more often under those circumstances

You think a company producing weeb games can’t do this at the behest of a totalitarian government?

Okay then

If the does dont find you handsome they should at least find you handy lethal

As the other commenter suggested, try bazzite. Setup as easy as configuring a new smartphone and ready to game right off the bat

Once you’re older than 15 you will discover that a few things in life can have a massive impact on your general well being and health, and it absolutely makes sense to spend big on those. Good shoes are one of these things, a quality mattress appropriate for your body type is another.

Very accurate and disturbing

Definitely. There is about a handful of terminally online users who are posting here way too much for way too long, they should probably take a step back and touch some grass, which i mean in the most respectful and understanding way imaginable.

On the other hand, those people are main content providers and their unhealthy behavior is our gain.

Very cool, I assume this is some kind of mutually beneficial arrangement? What does the fish provide? Looks like the shrimp is already doing the interior design and home defense.
