I've arranged a replacement. In the meantime I've fixed its overheating...

I did, but completely forgot! I haven't used a local library in years >.<

The only thing stopping me from migrating is 90% of my Steam library isn't available on Linux. I'm stuck on Windows for my main

Edit: Thank you everyone! Last time I checked was about 6 months ago, I didn't give Proton a proper shot and I will be glad to migrate fully!

This. I don't do much but I have spent $1,200 on HDDs alone. Then there's the true saviors of the internet with hundreds of TB, even PB of backed up, virus-free content

I can be negative. But I love people and want the best for everyone. What I don't like are the toxic systems of control that some people are under, and some people follow. Aand sometimes I can be swept up in the injustice, and lose my patience with extreme followers.

I apologise in advance to this community if I make someone's mood worse, instead of better. I can often fail, and yet we should all strive to be a healthy member of the communities we inhabit!

world on fire
people in fire
OP: Why aren't you smiling?

Good thing your government isn't the world police - we have multinational organisations that handle that

South of UK, been fine here for several years throughout the issues elsewhere. They're either not bothering with banning uBO in my area or it's scattered and I'm lucky

Unfortunately, according to the standardised definition of 'inclusive', they were out of order in policing the community in a way that did not align with the community rules. The post alone was directed at women, but the community is not.

The instance I'm on :)

Good luck 🏳️‍⚧️💜

Google has pretty much always been a prick, but recently they've been showing just how bug a prick they can be, with ramping up company acquisition, destruction and closure, ad obsession, censorship and other anti consumer moves. I believe rooting is essential to privacy, because Google. The less power conglomerates and corporations have the better.

I knew the Israeli-Palestine conflict would cone up eventually. I'm with him for most things up until that point. He called the attack on October 7th a "genocide". Genocide is attempted eradication of a demographic of humanity deemed lesser by the attackers. The IDF is committing genocide against Palestine, not the other way around..

On a side note, is there any truth in his claims about increasing antisemitic attacks on Jewish residents of, I'm guessing, the US? I know the acting President threw a sieg heil but if the US is really starting to go that way, that's very worrying. Last time Jews were persecuted, between 11 and 29 million non-'cishet white christian males' were murdered alongside them.

I appreciate a no-bullshit approach to moderating users. This is an instance that doesn't allow assholes or transphobes. I like that.

Thank you so much! Turns out my router is buggy and yes, I realized the hits were just peers. I'm a stoopid

Bingo - I haven't been in this exact situation before so I had no idea. Clicking the link opens the app flawlessly, I should make more of an effort to check links in a browser

I also appreciate that Notepad notes now don't need to be manually saved to a file. They're probably in temp storage somewhere, but the point is you can just write and close.

I've recently discovered a very useful app on f-droid called YTDLnis, that uses yt-dlp. Most of the typical scripting and config is hidden and the frontend just involves a URL to video/s, and pre-download preview.

Is that what they taught in your school? In mine they just taught mostly useless subjects. Schools now teach critical thinking I believe, which to me is insane, as I used to think everyone had the innate ability to make decisions for themselves.

Or a goddamn mech suit from Fallout
