  • I might be in danger of being "that guy", but how come you're not doing more frequent backups?

  • This coupled with the decline of insect populations (as someone who regularly drives from Missouri to Georgia in the states, you can count me as one of the anecdotal points of the windshield phenomenon) is like the icing on top of my climate doomerism. It's hard to find reasons for optimism.

    On the other hand, I'm even more vindicated in my desire to keep moving toward a plant based diet:

    The hardest hit were grassland birds, down by more than 50 percent, mostly due to the expansion of farms that turn a varied landscape into acres of neat, plowed rows. That equates to 750 million birds, from bright yellow Eastern and Western Meadowlarks with their incessant morning songs to the stately Horned Lark with black masks across the male’s eyes and tiny hornlike feathers that sometimes stick up from their heads.

  • Yeah, I'm definitely waiting on that

  • Nope. Deleted my account as soon as I heard about the API pricing and never looked back. As far as I was and still am concerned, even if they backtracked the API bullshit the writing is on the wall: reddit no longer cares about providing value to users, if they ever did. They're no in the endgame of enshittification of trying to extract value from anywhere they can, quality of service be damned.

  • Nope, not even a little bit. That's why I use Cinnamon. On the workspace front, though, I do use those heavily. It helps to have dedicated workspaces. On my home setup I have a sidedesk for Obsidian and PDF reading; a hobby bench for tinkering with linux, my network, and coding; a main for webrowsing and general info gathering; one for gaming (steam and lutris live there); and one for communications like discord, signal, matrix, etc.

  • Bro! Your dog is pretty freaking cute doing that compute

  • Argentine ants living in vast numbers across Europe, the US and Japan belong to the same inter-related colony, and will refuse to fight one another.

    The colony may be the largest of its type ever known for any insect species, and could rival humans in the scale of its world domination.

    What's more, people are unwittingly helping the mega-colony stick together.

    Argentine ants (Linepithema humile) were once native to South America. But people have unintentionally introduced the ants to all continents except Antarctica.

  • Not gonna lie, it was the will Reddit fiasco that has me concerned about my game library when Gabe goes

  • Normally I do but considering literally everything they brought up as a reason to support RH's decision was brought up in the video, it's apparent that they didn't watch it and so didn't even know the argument they claimed to understand

  • You say:

    I understand the argument

    But then say:

    but consider that Red Hat is a huge contributor to more than just RHEL. The biggest contributors to the projects you know and love like Libreoffice, gnome, and Wayland are from people being payed by companies like red hat. I can understand why people disagree with their choice, but when this company profits, they don’t just make RHEL better and support everything dependent on it, they make Linux software better.

    which would indicate that you don't understand the argument

  • Basically a libertarian socialist/anarchist gun club

  • Why is this downvoted? I'm not a huge fan of BRICS either but this is certainly news worthy
