Make your content good enough and be a good enough person so that people are willing to give you money voluntarily or for token rewards. Let those with the means subsidize those without.
Occasionally you see something and the comments are full of "let me throw money at you". Maybe at least partially try that as a goal rather than searching for infinite growth at the expense of anyone who isn't an executive.
Linux Mint tends to be a bit conservative in terms of kernel version (which is what usually determines driver and hardware support), which explains why you had trouble getting hardware to work. I think they're getting better at it now though.
Under Linux, I find "gparted" to be a good application for looking at and managing partitions.
However, if talking and partaking in sexual acts is less stigmatised, people will hopefully feel a lot more comfortable about getting tested and talking about it.
And honestly, if it does turn out to be that big a problem, vetting and requiring regular testing seems a reasonable thing to require before people are allowed in.
... Why should private internet be banned or discouraged? What benefits would that being?
It's a bit of a cop out, but maybe talking about and dealing with feelings. At best people usually only talk privately with a professional for money. Normalise just having regular group therapy for everyone that they can just drop in and out of.
Or if we want to really push boundaries: Orgies and kink parties. Sex is a natural part of life, no need to keep it secret.
This has the problem of being both overly simplified and overly complicated.
On the simplification front, it has the same issues as aspergers/autism or the three levels system that the US uses. By simplifying it to several axises you lose a lot of nuance. Someone could have a lot of difficulties, but not even appear autistic if they happen to miss whatever is being measured. Every autistic person is different and has specific needs and desires. Making a simple "political compass" style thing is going to miss that.
As a comparison to lgbt people, consider a woman who doesn't feel sexual attraction to anyone, but derives sexual satisfaction from a big burly guy choking her. Where does she lie on the lgbt spectrum?
However, you're also overcomplicating things. Instead of people just saying that they're autistic, they have to list all the symptoms they have in some kind of grid decided by some person who is never getting a consensus.
We should normalise "hey, could you stop whistling? I'm a bit sensitive to high pitched noises". Rather than pushing for "Hey, I'm diagnosed as a high-sensitive-hearer, here's my diagnosis".
And as well as all that, people are almost certainly use this as a way to gatekeep. Happens a lot in lgbt circles; gay people saying bisexuality isn't a thing, bi people saying homosexuality isn't a thing, people denying the existence of ace, trans or intersex people. If you create a criteria for liking routine, then there's going to be people that say only autistic people that meet that criteria are REALY autistic.
Honestly, this whole idea feels like it comes fron the academic desire to categorize and study rather than a desire to help.
How would this work? As I understand it, GE is used in things like Heroic or Lutris where you typically just point it to the exe directly (unless you own Skyrim on gog, I guess?). In that case, wouldn't it be easy enough to point to the modloader exe rather than the main game exe?
Even if it could happen through steam (can GE be added to Steam?), wouldn't Steam's mandatory automatic update thing cause issues meaning you'd just launch it through your mod loader anyway.
IQ is an arbitrary scale, and throughout history the US has been using it to withhold rights to marginalised groups. It's their equivalent of the social credit score. :P
It's interesting how there suddenly became a huge pivot to normalizing it based on country once being racist stopped being fashionable.
Firstly, for my dotfiles, I use home-manager. I keep the config on my git server and in theory I can pull it down and set up a system the way I like it.
In terms of backups, I use Pika to backup my home directory to my hard disk every day, so I can, in theory, pull back files I delete.
I also push a core selection of my files to my server using Pika, just in case my house burns down. Likewise, I pull backups from my server to my desktop (again with Pika) in case Linode starts messing me about.
I also have a 2TiB ssd I keep in a strongbox and some cloud storage which I push bigger things to sporadically.
I also take occasional data exports from online services I use. Because hey, Google or Discord can ban you at any time for no reason. :P
If only steam had a way to mark games as "hey, this game is in beta, expect issues". I don't know, making it clear that we were accessing it early or something...
I can't speak for everyone, but I know I'd be willing to tolerate games being a bit buggy if they up front said "we know this game has issues. You can try it now or you can wait until we fix them".
Basically 100% subscribed. Being exposed to the unfiltered hivemind of lemmy seems like I'd see a lot of stuff that I don't want to see. :P Especially since I have nsfw turned on.
Chromebooks have the advantage of being mostly a laptop with a keyboard, mouse-analog and largish screen... Phones don't really have that, so it seems an odd choice to me. Especially for a platform which is hostile to giving users permissions to install software on their own devices.
