Much more ethical and safe to get blurays

Why do you think the NSA isn't targeting you?

It is a huge threat just like any low level firmware. However, there isn't much you can do

Maybe they should require everyone to be happy all the time. I'm just imagining everyone going around with freaky smiles.

Nix is cool but also incredibly painful

Did someone's script wipe out your tax returns?

This is such a weird gatekeeper take

Just use flatpak. It runs and installs local but still has the benefits of a package manager

Snap'd

App images are a very Windows way to do things. They bundle everything so they are big

No one uses app image anymore

What? Containers are the easy route. There isn't anything easier that I know of. You just deploy it and be done.

How so? There are lots of valid complains about gnome but stability is not one of them. They are very careful about the stuff they ship by default.

It isn't bad I just think it is important to keep in mind many if the listings are deliberately misleading.

Side note I wonder who will buy that listing. It has jumped in popularity thanks to lemmy

Just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should buy it or that it is a good deal.

Just use eBay directly

Also a lot of these listings are junk. The want $100 for like $50 worth of hardware. I personally am waiting for the market to get a little more sane

His friend probably

Vegans hate this one weird trick

He seems alright to drive

Just use containers. Any Debian package would be years out of date and doing updates wouldn't be a challenge to say the least. Meanwhile with containers I can easily update the version.

Honestly that's not a bad strategy. The biggest weakness of the Democrats is the wide range of political views

For what its worth I agree. The Democrats are killing themselves from within. Say what you want about Trump but they are smart enough to target the moderate crowd. Meanwhile Harris is busy dodging hard questions about her political stance. The liberal media likes to brag about how good the Democrats are doing but the reality is they have lost a lot of ground and Harris is too far left for most of the swing voters. People have not been happy with the way Biden is running things and it shows.

I also find it funny that Harris is adapting the Trump strategy. She is increasingly responding with insults and slander instead of being a cool collected alternative to Trump. Her association with Biden is also not doing her favors and many people just don't know her well enough to support her.

I suppose Lemmy isn't the place for political discussion. Lemmy as a whole is far left and it shows. This might be a shock but social media isn't a good representation of the bigger political views. If you go on a platform dominated by the right you will end up with people calling you far left because you don't believe in racism.

To be far the US has seen many different parties come and go.

Ranked choice voting seems like a great way to create huge political instability. Let's take the system that has worked decent for 248 years and completely replace it with something less well tested. We already have uncertainty we don't need to mess with the system more.

That makes sense logically. At the end of the day people lead toward groups with shared views. A lot of the issue tend to be yes/no like answers which creates two parties

IF ONLY THE US WAS AS GOOD AS THE ONLY TWO FREE NATIONS ON EARTH, RUSSIA AND CHINA

Joking just in case it isn't obvious

🍿🍿🍿

The problem is that these systems are way more complex and have edge cases where someone unpopular gets elected. Making major changes to a system that has worked for 248 years seems like a recipe for disaster.

Do you just call and ask?

They really should find and arrest the perpetrator. This is a serious offense and should not be tolerated.

You can collaborate across instances. Think a video call where you can all edit one file.

Also it now supports activity pub so you can interact with Lemmy and Mastodon

No

I know

It still won't really matter. The domain name is arbitrary in this case

I disagree. I personally don't see any reason why someone would seriously see communism as legit without shoving there head in the sand. At least the free market doesn't lead to mass starvation. To be fair it isn't a black and white thing but communism is a failed system from the 20th century

That's never going to happen

You don't need to vote for a main party. However, your vote isn't mathematically significant

I don't need to have substance to have fun

Email isn't a private system

That's not much of a surprise as China isn't exactly known for free(dom) internet.
