(Not OP.) Sucks that you gotta debloat. I want to say it should be opt in for anything thats not basic function, but I think that’s too extreme. Maybe people out there find the web search function super useful, or they appreciate the adverts or whatever.
Anyhoo, even though I debloat everything like crazy from day one, i find myself debloating something new about once a month or so still.
But I don’t have a self destruct button on my car. I don’t know anybody that does.
Not OP, but I believe there is a big difference between reading a book or longform article vs 3 paragraphs in a Fediverse thread. I certainly feel it when I sit down to read longform (but i still often read longform).
I’m certain they’ve changed their recipes. The PSL was weak af this season. I admittedly treat myself to at least one a season because they used to be tasty. They are no longer tasty. I tried twice in different cities/states. Same weak flavor from both stores.
I still have the right, but it’s being routinely violated and not upheld by a supreme court that’s clearly in the tank.
Holy Christ, what are you guys doing on your phones to fuel this much paranoia? I have a constitutional right to privacy and i dont want my information/data (the very essence that makes me me) harvested and sold – for those reasons im opposed to most searches and i’ve never used biometrics. But the need to nuke my phone because a cop got it is so far from a necessity that I cant think of what im doing that I would need it.
But we think you’re a genius!
Well I can eat a whole Hot and Ready on my own and then do a minute-long fart the next day.
Thanks for taking a second to research that. Maybe my search results are skewed for some reason because i double checked before posting that comment. Weird. I’ll think about it more.
Everybody always goes on and on about how great linux is for gaming pcs these days. I recently poked around online to see if my rtx5070ti would be supported and found a bunch of people facing issues, and that Mint and Ubuntu weren’t recommended.
I dont want the AI nonsense, and Windows/Microslop blows, but I want my new gaming laptop to work correctly for several years given the money I spent on it. I can’t see making the switch when the gpu support is so convoluted.
Ive had many Linux machines in the past, so that bums me out.
Edit: someone should make a webpage that automatically reads the hardware and specs of your windows machine and then creates a table of suggested distros. That table should also include “what you’ll lose” that shows which features will become lost or finicky. And it should also include direct download links.
If the goal is to have morons like myself adopt it, it needs to be basically fool proof and easy. Linux is much better and easier than it was in 2003, but that doesn’t mean it’s two-click easy.
Not cringe, but cliche yeah.
I also have noticed the trope of Crossword puzzles being a sign of brilliance/intelligence (Brooklyn 99, Stranger Things for example). Let me tell you something – i do multiple crosswords daily to keep my hands and mind busy, and i’m a friggin moron.
The Zero G sex in the first episode of The Expanse was fun and memorable.
No, that’s still bad because it conflicts with religious values.
If you dont own the company, you’re getting fucked even if you’re not literally getting fucked. The whole employment system abuses humanity. It’s all fucking depressing. Sex trafficking sucks much worse than run of the mill getting fucked by the workforce, and it should be eliminated, but it wont be eliminated by shutting down the porn industry.
One controls the flue, another controls the damper. The rest are just there to look cool and hang tools from.
I’m all in on no limits for free speech. The government’s job is to provide services, not determine and police morality. And hate speech does not have a concrete definition, so it’s a moving target (the government could define talking shit about Republicans as hate speech and make it illegal, for example). I don’t like Nazis or racism or homophobia, but i like the idea that you are legally allowed to say nazi, racist or homophobic shit and I can hear it and choose to shun you.
I’m glad Canada is there for you with their rules if that makes sense to you. Not everybody has to agree with no limits on free speech – plenty of places to live with mostly free-ish speech laws.
Anywhere between like 15 and 45, I think. I dunno because i didn’t look it up and im not a brain doctor guy.
I immediately wondered if some other country called something else “Greek salad”… I tried to click the link in the photo to see if it was another name for like Ambrosia Salad or something desserty.
Nope… Just a delicious, oily, salty Greek salad like I know and love from the local Coney.
Raspberry preserves and pretzel rods.
My roku does this shit. Pisses me right off.
