No US president has ever faced a war crimes tribunal, despite every one of them killing large numbers of civilians.

Nor will they face one, until like nazi germany, the US is overthrown and its leaders are made to account for its crimes.

We also do have a forum sort on here, that allows infinite necrobumping (not limited to 2 days like the Hot sorts), called New Comments.

But ya I agree link aggregator is a good enough descriptor for what lemmy is: a place to post links to communities, and comment on them.

I think link aggregator is fine, and most descriptive of what lemmy is. Its a place to post links to communities, and allows for comments on those links.

No probs! @Cowbee@lemmy.ml also has some great introductory resources.

The western project of humanizing nazis who massacred so many ppl in the 20th century is sickening.

She's been a presidential candidate.

George jetson house, what they thought the future would look like in 1960:

I'm not sure either. I think arch used to be one of the less popular distros (because of the more involved install process, solved now by the arch-based distros with friendly installers), despite having some of the best features, so it required more "evangelism", that's unecessary now. Arch-based distros are now some of the most popular ones, so its not necessary.

Others have commented on why its so great, but the AUR + Rolling releases + stability means that arch is one of the "stable end states". You might hop around a lot, but its one of the ones you end up landing on, and have no reason to change from.

They were being sarcastic I think.

JFC, orientalist rage-bait propaganda is off the charts.

USA.jpeg right there. That image is for everyone who lives there except for like three cities. And the bike route is actually crossing several major roads.

In that case flatpak is basically a hack for OS's with broken or improper dependency manangement systems. Either those OS's should fix their broken systems, or ppl should move to OS's that do it properly, as that's one of the most important functions of your OS anyway.

Which ones? Everything in the arch main repos are compiled for your system, and most things in the AUR can either be built from source, or have -bin installs.

Can someone explain why flatpak isn't necessary for distros that have proper OS dependency management like Arch-based distros or Nix?

Seems like flatpak is solving a problem for OS's that don't have proper dependency management.

Why, it's totally unnecessary.

I just had a convo with someone about how the most dangerous job at their factory, which involves repeatedly getting near a 1700 degree furnace, was always mandated to be the highest hourly rate, even if other jobs were skilled labor, and no one thought this was unfair in the slightest due to the dangers involved.

Nice, those are some good bird pics. I like the coloration and little red flourishes on the woodpeckers.

Around me we get a lot of nut hatches, and titmouses which are my fav. They have little mohawks, and are quirky, but brave, as I've seen them do david and goliath standoffs with much bigger birds like crows. Not my pic but here's one

I'd really love to get into that, especially bird photography as it's been fun to try to learn bird calls and try to spot them. Nature really recharges the brain in a way nothing else can. Esp for those of us who are goal oriented or always feeling the need to be accomplishing something, being out in nature helps us drop all the expectations and distractions.
