I’d like to think they’d be more accommodating.
“Ahhh Mr. Albatross, we’ve seen your social media traffic and we’ve been expecting you! In anticipation of your arrival, we’ve prepared some lovely poop, if you would just step this way…”

I honestly feel safer with my data in a foreign authorities hands than domestic.
China can’t do dick to me nor should they want to. I’m just a lil guy! The US does nasty things to its citizens on the reg, I don’t wanna be caught up in that!


It has been right add the top of the page, it looks like they changed it.


Holy shit that image… we need to destroy AI I’m sick of this absolute garbage polluting the web


It’s a good reply even if it helps but one person


Ya can’t make me worried about China when I live in America


Yup. Mountains of slop is gonna replace schlock. What was before schlock will soon be slop. Well, it won’t be the end of schlock entirely. I’m sure we’re still gonna get some schlock that’s also slop. Slop schlock.


It’s all the proof one should need to see that he’s on their side, not mine, not yours.


Yeah… reading the stuff about Frey telling ICE to get out of Minneapolis really stunk of “because I don’t want a repeat of 2020’s unrest” not “we think ICE is gestapo”


Personally, the issue is ease of installation and configuration of programs.
Some things (edit: admittedly, most of the “important basics”, such as web browsers, Steam and Office-suite equivalents) are just as simple as they are on Windows and iOS with just clicking a button and using a wizard of sorts, but some things need you to parse a series of terminal prompts and figure out how to rewrite parts of the instructions to fit your particular machine and setup.
Often I end up missing or misunderstanding some step and it doesn’t work and I have no idea why.
It’s not impenetrable and it’s not a problem exclusive to Linux, but it does make setting things up a bit more of a chore.
I got Ubuntu on a laptop now to test out how to use that as my daily OS before I commit to figuring out how to swap over my Windows 10 desktop sometime next year and it admittedly is MUCH EASIER now than when I last tried around 2008, but I still run into problems.
I’m currently trying to schedule a weekend where I can diagnose why my raspberry pi won’t boot after a power outage when it’s survived that in the past and another weekend to figure out why the self hosted tandoor app I got successfully running a few months ago suddenly stopped and cannot run now, even after what I thought was a clean install.
I wanna switch. I do. But so many steps of it are full on projects. I’m learning a lot and it gets easier every step of the way, but it’s still at a state where I need to schedule time to address these things that “just work” on Windows.
Edit: I understand why this is the case. A lot of these things are free, open source projects made by teams who don’t necessarily have the time and resources to make their program out-of-the-box ready for every conceivable software and hardware set up out there. And I understand why someone might think that a corporate backing of resources might be able to address that issue, but I agree it isn’t really isn’t in accordance with the goals of Linux or helpful to the point of moving away from these corporate structures.


Juuuuuuuuust enough DNC members refused to vote or “switched sides” to ensure it didn’t pass.
Fascinating how that seems to happen at just the right times.


What a FASCINATING concept!


“Wanna learn about the threats to your livelihood posed by this upcoming court case? Pay us just $5 a month! Don’t worry, we’ll automatically increase that to $10 a month after three months. No action required.”


Lmao buddy you turned marketing buzz words into ontological argument come the fuck on
You might as well say Mr Clean is clearly a diety of some sort because of his undying commitment to purity


I would love to see an article about bobobos titled “So Much For the Tolerant Left!”


It is a disgrace, though it comes to mind that Marjorie Taylor Green does say this kind of thing about Jews with little consequence. She recently called Ben Shapiro an invader over the rumor he might take over TP USA.
A disturbingly large enough portion of Americans seem fine with the Christian fascism that’s been fermenting in our country for a while now.


Honey I don’t know bout you but it’s Friday night this human is absolutely gonna be enjoying some poison!


Look I’m all for the idea that we eat too much meat currently and all, but are mice really good analogs for humans in this instance? I’m not a scientist of any sort, so I really don’t know, but it seems to me like a creature that doesn’t naturally eat, like, any red meat would be a bad analog here.
This isn’t a news article it’s a fucking sentence!
Goddamn yo
