In NZ, churches don't have to pay tax. This makes them extremely attractive to people with no skills who want to obtain wealth

RecursionError: Maximum recursion depth exceeded image manipulation toolkit

No way, at least Gentoo is up to date

If you wanted to truly punish them, install Debian Stable

Yeah, but, like, how many hours will it take for you to deliver 5 complexity points?

I hope this never happens to me but based on the Peter Principle I won't know when it happens.

Oh shit maybe it's already happened...

I was thinking about this the other day. Because Lemmy instances keep defederating from each other, I don't really experience Lemmy. I experience a fragment of Lemmy as determined by the admins of the instance I'm connected to.

Even if I run my own instance, I guess there's nothing stopping instances from defederating from me (or just refusing to federate to begin with because my instance is too small to bother with).

Is there even a way to experience all of Lemmy, including spam and things some people don't agree with?

+1. I used to think it was just something that happened to old people, until it happened to me

"will the company go out of business if this isn't fixed in the next hour?"

Litmus test for urgency

Yeah eastern countries just don't have the same relationship with alcohol that the west does.

Gambling, however...

Purebred and inbred are synonyms

Why? All it's going to do is output some words that have a statistical correlation to your input words

Have they fixed that 100% disk usage bug in Windows yet? Seems to disproportionately affect laptops with magnetic disk's and just chokes the whole system making it unusable

If you go far enough right, you buffer overflow around to the left.

If you go far enough left, you buffer underflow around to the right

No, he would become a martyr which would only strengthen the resolve of the MAGA people

"politics"

Next in line are still elderly but they've been spending their whole life building up to this so they aren't going to put some young whippersnapper in charge and undo the years of bribery, corruption and arse-kissing that got them to where they are

even Valve told Ubuntu users to use the Flatpak for Steam instead of the Snap

Hahaha really? That's awesome. I wonder if Canonical will ever take the hint that nobody wants Snap when better, more open alternatives exist

Yeah, package manager is a big one. Many of us got burned by rpm's early on and just avoided all rpm-based distros since then.

Of course as you say that hasn't been a problem for over 10 years but the scars haven't gone away.

I'd only recommend Ubuntu to someone if I knew they knew some else using Ubuntu (so I could tell them to hassle that person instead of me when they have problems).

Otherwise, I'd absolutely recommend Fedora, because it's actually up to date unlike Debian. I use it myself because it tends to have the best of what the open source community has to offer while not needing constant tweaking

And then managers go "why does shadow IT exist?"

...you have my condolences
