Let's hope for an API debacle 2.0 then. Fuck Spez!

You too!!!

One great instance of Mbin I've been on is kbin.run. So far, very stable and no complaints

Ramping up his authoritarian rhetoric, Trump pledged in the lowa speech to institutionalize an authoritarian crackdown of the same sort he falsely accuses the Biden administration of implementing. “Upon taking office, I will create a new federal task force on fighting anti-Christian bias to be led by a fully reformed Department of Justice that's fair and equitable," he promised. «Its mission will be to investigate all forms of illegal discrimination, harassment and persecution against Christians in America."

This is the quote from the article about the task force.

I don't have any experience with Tuxedo or Framework, so I can't really comment on those 😅

I have definitely heard Lenovo ThinkPads are great though, and I'm currently rocking a Lenovo Legion Slim 7 which has been fantastic so far (albeit I JUST got it and I'm rolling Windows on it with WSL2 Debian, so not exactly a pure Linux experience).

R-ch (pronounced Arch btw)

I think I get what you're saying.

I work in a company with a very young workforce, and the few people who do put periods on the end of their sentences and say "thanks" are out-of-the-ordinary. Usually for us, it goes:

Hey {first name}, [Request Here with Emojis Strewn Throughout]. Thank you! [Signature line]

I think the few "Thanks" we do have are just from an older generation and / or members of HR (whom I am convinced have no soul at all)

RIP Artemis

I wanted to point out kbin.social has been having some stability issues, so I've been using the mbin fork at kbin.run and it's been working amazingly.

I also had a similar experience with Nordvpn.

You said you needed something more immediate, I'd say there's nothing wrong with being a waiter / waitress / bartender while learning something else. They're not the most secure jobs for sure, but they're not exactly going extinct.

Alternatively, hotel staff make a lot (at least a lot for the small town I grew up in).

If you're looking for a trade skill - HVAC, plumbing and being a mechanic will all be skills that will stick with you through life and they all pay pretty well.

Truck driving is really, really in-demand right now. If you're willing to drive 12-14 hours some days, shower at travel stops and sleep in your cab (at least, that's what I'm hearing a lot) then that could be for you.

Same here

I 100% get that (and I know it's an archive), but I'm just saying why doesn't double-clicking a .tar.gz just run "tar xf file.tar.gz | sh" on that file? Or check if there's an executable in the extracted files and then run it if there is, and if it's just an archive of files then open the extracted folder?

True, I really do think Linus was right when he said "fuck Nvidia" but sadly it's still a point against Linux :(

Just run stuff out-of-the-gate

Connect to WiFi properly in a Panera (ymmv, but this was my experience with 3 different Ubuntu-based distros)

Play pretty much any game (Proton has gotten us far but it's not the end-all-be-all)

Be usable without the command line at all (tried giving my GF Linux Mint, no it's not entirely usable without the command line, and I haven't found a distro that is)

*Run Nvidia flawlessly out-of-the-box

*Be backed up fully and easily (no, TimeShift is not easy, it's just easy for you after looking up documentation for a hot minute)

*Except immutable distros like Silverblue *I know Pop_OS! comes with Nvidia drivers before anyone says that, but it's the odd-one-out

Being real, why DON'T distros just have the ability to do the installation if you double-click whatever file is downloaded?

I feel like we should have either option - download and double-click or just use the command line.

I mean, what else would double-clicking a .tar.gz file or an appimage do than install it (yes, I know, look into the archive, but really - how often is that the desired thing to do)? So, therefore, why don't we just have it install the files that are downloaded?

This is a legit question btw, I really don't know the answer

Can confirm, in the US it is very, very rare to find a part-time job and it sounds really awesome to have the right to reduce working hours

This sounds like the same issue I went into on my old account multiple times: @BiggestBulb@kbin.social

About to perform the best Metallica song - Cattery

I'd also like an ELI5. I'm not new to the game, but I'll just say I JUST hopped on the Torrentio bandwagon
