  • I think you would get enough though. Lemmy seems to skew older and and based on what I've seen a fair number of people have kids.

    I can think of someone who would probably be game to mod it, but he's a bit notorious for continuing somewhat silly arguments on occasion...

  • Back in the 80s and before, that extended warranty was incredible. We joke that my parents were the ones responsible for bankrupting Sears because of how much they used the lifetime warranties on things like appliances. As a kid it felt like we had a Sears repairman at the house monthly for the washer or dryer or fridge... Since Sears is long gone, I think I can tell this story. My parents had a betamax player that they really wanted to unrepairably blow up so they'd get a credit towards a new VHS player (they recorded all the shows they watched so they could fast forward through commercials, we had like 100 VHS tapes just to record TV on), so my dad wired up the betamax player to run 240v through it. Sears repaired it.

  • By the standards of US and Canadian politics, yeah we're to the left of center. But "center" has been dragged to the right so far that it's prompting this whole argument. The Overton window had shifted so far that liberalism - which, in a current context, supports relatively unregulated capitalism and trickle down economics - there's a whole swath of political ideologies that's basically nonexistent within our modern day electoral politics. I'm somewhere in the anarchist range and choose to engage with electoral politics - if they chose to participate within the context of a FPTP voting system with two options, we'd find ourselves voting for the same candidate despite our likely highly differing political beliefs. In many countries that left wing is less smashed, the range of political discourse is much wider.

    Shit just works is to the left side of, but comfortably within, the current Canadian Overton window. In a global sense, the instance is kinda to the right, in the same way that Bernie Sanders is moderate by western European standards.

  • Anyone know if Ublue Aurora works out of the box with a MacBook like OP has? I've got a 2014 MacBook Pro that I'm probably putting Linux on next year once I no longer need Mac OS.

    My gaming laptop, with an Nvidia graphics card, is running Bazzite and I've never had any issues with it (of course, ymmv).
