Have you looked into Mint?

The linux mint forums make it seem like it works out of the box. I know that it worked out of the box for my Thinkpad x380, even the touchscreen, pen, and screen rotation.

by "client" do you mean "just use a browser"?

It might have been part of the divorce, selling the house and splitting the profits.

This is "ask Lemmy", what is the question?

Before Markus starting saying racist shit, or Q-anon shit, or anti-trans shit.

Generally through lack of funding, especially in areas like healthcare.

you missed the "!", so browsers parse that as an email address

Wow… Is there any org that doesn’t protect its pedos

One that have people outside their walls that check-up on them.

Public schools often do what they can to prevent/remove sex criminals. Being alone with a child in an area out of view may get you in trouble.
Law firms, and least in Canada, remove people very quickly. The Law societies will get you.

And once again, I have heard of police and military trying to protect pedos/rapists in their ranks, but not firefighters.

Our power in Sask is dirty enough that burning gas in the home is better for the environment than using electricity for water tanks. 500% heat pumps would be better in theory, but they're not good enough for our winters yet, and the financial costs still aren't in their favour.

29% of the power being generated is coal as I type this comment.

If you're not having a good time, stop. Life is too short.

If you're still interested in using linux, LinuxMint or PopOs! are what most people would recommend to a new user, not Arch.

Arch can be perfect for users with the time, knowledge, and effort to perfectly tailor things to suit their needs. They can make it perfectly efficient, without any excess.
I just want to use my computer whenever I want it to work. I am fine with it having a few extra packages/applications that I might never use. I've being using linux as main (or only) operating system on/off for about 20 years, and I currently use Mint.

Some games/software expected/relied on a certain CPU speed to run correctly. If your computer was faster than that, the software would run too fast. The turbo button let you toggle between the maximum speed your computer could go, and the speed that the software needed/expected in order to run normally.

Basically, there was an actual reason for the turbo button, it wasn't just marketing on computers.

If you would like to propose it to them or provide the code, they are the admins of Lemmy.ml and here's the github: https://github.com/LemmyNet

Because the lemmy software doesn't do a curated feed, and there isn't one "front page". There are 57 options for what you see when you first log in, depending on what you chose in your https://lemmy.ca/settings.

You can only change it for yourself by changing it to subscribed, or changing it to all. https://lemmy.ca/settings

Compared to other social media sites, lemmy doesn't curate/manipulate in the "feed". This is both good and bad. Because .ca isn't just Canadians, but every instance we are linked to, whatever communities from here that get a little traction globally will poison the feed.

It order to fix that, .ca would need to limit what kinds of communities can be made on this instance. They do this with the no porn/bigotry rule, but that's still not very specific. There is also the issue of a small number of people on the platform creating 50+ communities, not doing anything with them, not even making a single post. This poisons looking for new communities.
They could decide to change the rules and remove a bunch of communities, but I assume the admins discussed this, coming to the conclusion that it would drive a large amount of people away.

seize their family homeS.

That's about as far as you need to read before losing any empathy for them.

This seems like an issue with Backblaze, I think?

The problems may start with the laws in the country. Being gay is a crime punishable with the death penalty in some places, and helping "criminals" hide their crimes (or even just not reporting it) is often a crime as well.

It's the correct move. I know a few Phd pro Ph who went this route in their 30s.

Instead of just listening to U1 students with the same bad takes/logic, they now help people with actual tangible problems in the real world.
They also went from "maybe I can afford name brand beans" to "maybe I shouldn't eat out every day this week".

It is illegal, but kids get most content online now. So, although many countries have laws on the books against ads targeting children, it doesn't mean that they don't.

Juul got in trouble for doing this, using ads that were definitely not specifically targeting tweens/teens on websites for Seventeen magazine, cartoon network, and Nick jr.
