  • You may not realize it, but this is why Hamas was telling people to stay in their houses and not leave. Because this has happened before, this is not a new thing.

  • Bro, who hurt you?

  • AirDroid. It's not free, but it's pretty good(or at least it was, years ago)

  • It's not just that. By leaving they lose everything to the settlers. There are very good reasons for not leaving.

  • RCS is an open standard. Many mobile providers dragged their feet for so long that Google finally just started making it so that Google messages would relay RCS through their servers. The whole point is for the carriers to have RCS servers. Blame the carriers not Google for this. For once, Google isn't the one that did something shitty.

  • Robertson has the issue of when force is applied it is at angles that can easily damage the head and the tool or both.

    In general I feel Robertson is excellent for low torque applications, but torx doesn't have any of these issues.

  • Torx is superior in every single way.

  • No they can't. Single payer means that all the control is in the governments hands, because there are plenty of providers and only one payer for the entire 300+ million Americans. This is how single payer works. Medicare does this, for example.

    In the current system there is 0 incentive to lower prices. The incentive becomes to charge as much as will be maximally paid.

    Before you try to argue, the nhs, Canadian healthcare system, and pretty much every developed country that isn't the US, would like to have a word.

  • "I don't want to pay the government $20 a month for universal healthcare. I want to pay a private company $200 a month for healthcare that is only covered at select locations by select facilities by select doctors and can be denied at any time by the insurance company. Freedom!“

    How did Americans become so stupid?

  • Mint.

  • I am decidedly not a Trekkie.

    I love every single one of the movies since 2009 (there is one I take issue with, bit it's relatively minor) and every single one of the new shows. I've never seen any of the old shows and they hold absolutely no interest for me.

    Having said that, I love Discovery. It is an absolutely fantastic show.

    Strange New worlds is among one of the best sci-fi shows I've ever watched. It is absolutely fantastic and Anson Mount is utterly fantastic.

    For me, the Orville is a window into old Star Trek. I absolutely love The Orville. The way that it touches on difficult subjects is done so beautifully that I can't even begin to gush about how perfect it is. The moclan arc with topa and the follow-ups were so wonderfully done. As a cis white guy, I can't think of a better way to handle and portray these situations and how important they are than the way the Orville did.

    It is my personal opinion that the biggest enemies of Star Trek are it's hardcore fans. You guys shit on everything that isn't old Star Trek and you make it so that new viewers are less likely to check out the shows. You like to crap all over Discovery without understanding that is actually a really good show. It's also a really good way to bring people like myself that could give a shit less about Star Trek into the universe so that I'm more likely to check out other shows like strange New worlds for example which is about the best representation of what Star Trek is that we're ever going to get.

    That said I do have one major gripe. Beasty boys? JJ Lim, are you fucking stupid? The movie was great up until that point, and then you chose the dumbest way to close it out. How the fuck did this get out of table reading? What the actual absolute fuck?

  • This should really be a top level comment. This actually solves a lot of my issues with Linux.

    I remember complaining that Linux apps were not self-contained like Windows apps are. And I got the standard speech about losing space with libraries blah blah blah and my reaction is I don't fucking care.

    In my opinion, Linux dependency setup is hilariously broken. I understand that for the most part it works, but when it doesn't the results are disastrous generally.

    Also I agree. Nautilus is hot fucking garbage.

  • It's fun until you run into issues. Be careful of updates. Randomly it will fuck itself for no reason at all and require a from scratch reinstall.

    It's good that you're having fun. Learn all you can. It's good knowledge to have.

  • This is a stupid question. Because by and large damn near every democrat would lose their next election. Independents are desperately needed, and a large swath of independents still support israel and will fall for the "You're antisemitic if you criticize israel" bullshit.

  • Hermit app make PWAs a realistic alternative

  • Currently, you will run into far fewer issues and limitations if you use Plex.
