  • He should go back to Africa.

    I love that I get to say this guilt free for once.

  • I would've almost considered those downloads as reported in some way. Debain does queries into package use. Figured it might trickle down.

  • If I don't eat beef, there's not much incentive to create better alternatives so that I don't.

  • I get that, and I do my part,... but I recognize the reality that the majority never will, and that's the depressing part.

    I, you, everyone you know, everyone they know and their kids could recycle, buy an EV and be a saint, sipping solar from their rooftops until they're 70, and the world would still burn like a matchstick in thirty years.

    It's industry, law and utilities that really desperately need the change. Power stations and infrastructure, monetary investment, even.

  • How much of that is just new users doing their 23rd Arch install?

  • Not exclusively. Nicotine inhalation traditionally has been in combination with the rest of the chemicals and tar in cigarettes.

    Personally... yes? I know some vapers who have been around in the industry for almost 20 years. I've heard reports around x-rays of older vapers coming out nearly the same as a nonsmoker.

    The real enemy of nicotine inhalation seems to have more to do with what carries it rather than the nicotine itself.

  • Not much considering they've basically dipped toes into vaping rather than entire legs.

    Most of the vaping industry is independent companies removed from the likes of the usual tobacco figureheads and single-use Vuse and Juul vapes(their brands) were fizzled out years ago.

    PM and RJR do have their noses invested in some of those smaller companies, even Altria owned a chunk of Avail Vapor before they went to shit in the late 2010's.

    but their investors tend to be more cautious than the "black market" or smaller vape industry of juice bottles, single-use vapes and box mods, and they don't touch Delta 8/10 vapes with a 39.5' pole.

  • Nextcloud needs a heaping helping of a disclaimer before anyone installs it.

    Use the Docker or Podman images, they'll include most things a lot of first time users leave out that render Nextcloud buggy and inconsistent. It includes a cache, and about half of the security issues preconfigured out of the box.

    Installing it native from a guide with zero explanation beyond "welp, there's the start page" as the final step really doesn't do much for people and there's a lot of guides out there like that for Nextcloud.

  • I hope this place burns to the ground

    "Dad! Don't say that! What if it actually happened!?"

  • I was hooked. It was the first time my PC felt as transparent and lie-free as notebook paper.

    Like, there's nothing to hide because nothing is. It's pure, truthful freedom and that meant more to me than raw usability. I tried to do everything possible on Linux that i was told I couldn't do, hell, I ran Team Fortress 2 and Half Life in wine way pre-proton.

    and it sucked, but it was cool tho!

  • I used some Ubuntu derivative for recording shitty music me and my buddy made in a trailer. OSS off of a turtle beach soundcard with a hacked together driver, crammed into a shitty Windows Vista era desktop.

    I felt like some sort of junk wizard.

    I use arch these days, Garuda mainly. I've done the whole song and dance from Arch to Gentoo. I know the system, now I want to relax and let something I suck at, giving myself features be more in the hands of a catering staff of folks and the Garuda boys know how to pamper.

    The dragons kinda... yeah, the art's kinda cringe but damn, this is the definition of fully featured.

  • Yeah, modders could've filled it out into a full release by now.

  • walks into a gas station in an illegal state and buys a cannabinoid vape pen with the entire rainbow of cannabinoids available from actual weed sans delta 9

    walks by the drinks and see bootleggers, six different sizes of 40 ounce, high ABV drinks infused, some infused with 25 different drugs, vitamins and snake oil

    we can't get your ADHD medications!

    Clown-ass economy.

  • I mean, I get it. He's trying to sell capitalism to a dictator from the perspective of and you still get to be a dictator!

    He could just be the pissed little weapons hoarder he is, or maybe introduce some tourism and try to change the worldwide opinion of North Korea.

    Now, I don't personally think he can do both and the international community just be cool with flying tourists to NK. I didn't say it was a good idea.

  • One less sale is victory enough. It's one more than before the post.

  • Suddenly your video card is as mundane and trivial a solved problem as your keyboard or mouse.

    It just works and you never have to even think about it.

    To even consider that a reality as someone who's used Linux since Ubuntu 8.10.... I feel spoiled.
