One of the things that people like about Linux is how configurable it is. This meme is alluding to the power that Linux gives users through a technique known as "humor".

Yeah, because only an idiot would want to get rid of Edge. Obviously.

Yep. GNOME is terrible. Unfortunately, it's the default desktop for most distros, so it's most new users' experience of "what Linux is".

It just bothers me how much more effort simple tasks take on Linux

Such as? I've never had this problem.

graffito*

One graffito, two graffiti.

Does it actually help with pickpockets though?

I've never had it stolen, so...perhaps?

I feel like if anything, it advertises its location

Where else would it be? Don't right-handed people store it in their right front pocket? And since most people are right-handed...you're going to be correct most the time.

with a good strong yank the fabric loop is attached to would just rip out.

That would be a helluva strong yank, though, and it would certainly be much more difficult than just lifting the wallet out. Nothing is going to be 100% secure. It's about making the theft as difficult as possible.

Could somebody set an instance up on a nes

I think that in order to run Lemmy you'd need at least a PlayStation.

Some of this fight has to be legislative. We need to repeal Taft-Hartley.

You're god-damned right.

I don't understand why anybody wouldn't use a chain wallet. You don't have to worry about your wallet falling out or getting pickpocketed.

I think Connect is closed-source. I haven't been able to find much info on it, though, which is weird.

You're surprised that open source folks are using an open-source, decentralized network?

What is Biden planning to do about the environment?

I never said "Don't vote". However, I do think that we should be able to vote "no confidence", and if "no confidence" wins, they should have to do a while new election with new candidates.

I vote for candidates who offer me something more than "I'm not a fascist".

There absolutely is a No Trump voting option - only one - and it's voting for Biden.

Voting for Biden is... voting for Biden. It sounds like you don't want to improve anything, you just want to avoid it getting worse. Or, at least, have it get worse slower.

This idea of a "real man" is part of "this weird American macho thing".

Malarkey detected.

The issue lies in not all those people vote.

Partly. There's also the issue with the electoral college, because that makes some votes worth more than others (depending on where you live).

We don't get a vote of no confidence. There's no box to check that says "No Trump".

Also, Hillary got more votes than Trump did, so simply having more voters on your side doesn't necessarily mean that Trump will lose.

I loved Infinity for reddit, too, but I'm kind of squeamish about installing pre-release code on my phone. I'll wait until it's out of beta.
