I haven't heard about this. What states are trying to ban birth control?

This is a show vote. It's not serious... It’s a phony vote because contraception, to my knowledge, is not illegal. It’s not unavailable.

If you say so, Sen. Corbyn.

The vote is part of a larger push by Senate Democrats to draw attention to how the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has affected all aspects of reproductive health...

They confirm what the republicans are saying in the very next sentence? Who's editing these articles?

Yup, if we can sequester the extra CO2 in the biomass part of the carbon cycle I think that's the best solution, it doesn't fight life on the planet, instead it works with it.

Yep, I concur. I'm of the opinion that that's all you need to solve this problem.

All in all good news. It means less plastic and more biomass.

That's because this narrative is at odds with another environmentalist narrative.

Carbon compounds are oxidized by non plant organisms to form carbon dioxide.

Yup. Plastic's main selling point, it's durability, is no longer going to be a factor when choosing it as a material.

There's a lot of discussion in here about how great this is. And it is. But it is at odds with another environmentalist concern.

What if we could take carbon dioxide and turn it into something that can't be degraded by living organisms? Well, plastic is one of those things, or was. Plastic is a form of carbon sequestration.

These micro organisms, they're turning plastic into carbon dioxide. Any and all carbon compounds on earth will enter the carbon cycle. every drop of oil pulled out of the ground, even the stuff that's used to make plastic, will wind up in the atmosphere.

How so? The parties they're competing against are incumbents, and often, there are laws preventing them from campaigning. If anything they're at a disadvantage policitally, and yet they're winning. Obviously, what they're offering is popular for some reason.

Fuck yeah thanks man

Well, they win because they get votes, what is it that they're unhappy with that they're drawn to the potential leadership of these parties? I'd start with that. These are democracies, so these parties can't gain power unless they offer the citizenry of their countries something they want.

Really, wow. I didn't know that.

I use heliboard and futo for speech to text. I was using sayboard for stt, and it worked OK, but futo just seems so much better at it. So far in liking it, I didn't know they released a keyboard as well, I won't be giving it a try but I hope it works out, I'd prefer FOSS.

If it's on steam it will run.

What happens November 2025?

It's not really satirical.

Why do you need a program that tries to predict things about your sleep, or that checks the clock for you at the push of a button? It's overcomplicated crap that doesn't actually add value to your life. Just write it down.

Yeah it's called a text file.

Yeah you're right it's refresh databases, my bad.

I have never, once, run into an issue due to rolling release. I have never once read the news before updating. I've never had an update on arch break my system, never.

"Bleeding edge" is beta or alpha releases, people running those are the guinea pigs. All packages in default arch repositories are release versions, intended for use by users.

It is always expected to update your system periodically, no matter what distro or even software you're using.

None of these are actual problems

Yes, and I argue that this is true of new users as well.

normally just works

Yes, very user friendly

excellent wiki to get answers.

Yes. All users of systems, new, intermediate, advanced, and of any system, including windows and Mac, google stuff sometimes and look for information. This is probably one of the most important components for any software, the more easy it is to find information the better it will be. You can't find anything up to date on Ubuntu anymore, you're in a forum with a post from 2008 following outdated information.

expected to read the wiki

yes, when using software it is expected that at some point you'll want to look at documentation, so documentation needs to be detailed, accurate and up to date.

This problem you're talking about with packages A B and C and wrong versions and stuff, I've never run into it. I'm sure it can happen, but I've never seen it. I have run into it on Debian based systems, every time I've tried to run one for a few months I get broken dependencies and stuff due to mismatched versions. Basically every problem after your edit applies to all package managers, forcing yes on dialogs (the "y" in -Sy) is always dangerous, "apt purge" and "apt autoremove" to clean cache and remove unneeded dependencies, this stuff isn't unique to pacman, and again, I've only ever seen it on Debian, it's theoretically possible on arch but a guarantee on Debian that you'll run into these problems.

But we are getting lost in the weeds. Give someone an endeavorOS installer and a Linux Mint installer, will there be a noticable difference in ease of use? No, there won't, generally what determines user friendliness is the DE. The few things they could get stuck on are in the terminal, that applies regardless of the distro, and the big difference is the package manager, and like I've said, I've never had pacman break, I've had apt break something every time I've run it for a few months.

The wiki just likes to make the details available. Installation of nextcloud is as easy as pacman -S nextcloud

You're comparing a simple install guide with the entire detailed documentation of a package. of course the package docs are going to have more details.

Ignoring details is not the same as being user friendly. Having a bunch of corpo marketing pictures of slightly above average people smiling on video chat in your installation docs does not make something user friendly. Is this really the metric we are going by, how little information is in the documentation?

Dude thank you, someone who actually tried what I'm recommending weighing in.
