Hi, I’m Shauna! I’m a 37 year old transgender woman from Ontario, Canada. I’m also a Linux enthusiast, and a Web Developer by trade. Huge Star Trek fan, huge Soulsborne fan, and all-around huge nerd.
Seems like you’ve run some bad distros. Every problem you’ve described I’ve seen solutions for, and GUI solutions too, not just command line. Linux certainly was as you’ve described, but there are loads of user friendly distros that never require you to open a terminal window, ever, for anything.
Or just switch to Linux. It works flawlessly with everything except games that with anti-cheat that refuse to support it.
It seems like this vehicle comes with (as far as I know) the first solid state battery in a commercial vehicle which is HUGE news if true! I’m slightly skeptical because of this claim coming from the Chinese government, but who knows, it would be a huge boon for all of humanity if they’ve figured out solid state batteries.
The huge benefits we’ll all see are increased capacity so batteries last longer, and INSANELY fast charge times. You could recharge your car to 100% in the same time as it takes to fill it up with gas currently.
It might just be a coincidence but I’ve had a lot of trouble using Invidious or Piped lately too. Videos load and titles load, but video thumbnails don’t load for me.
Okay, I chose the wrong word, but it’s semantics, I’m pretty sure you know what I mean by the word “productivity”. There are already plenty of countries where there are jobs going unfilled for months or even years. Teams stretched thin and expected to do the same amount of work as 2 or even 3 people would have done in the past, and it’s only going to get worse if immigration is limited because developed countries currently depend on immigration to fill the gaps.
You’re right that it’s totally unsustainable to depend on immigration to fill gaps in your labour pool. The hope many governments seem to be hinging on is that this crisis will rectify itself as the bloated elderly population of the pyramid starts to die off. There definitely needs to be systemic change, but that takes time. In the short term, there are plenty of immigrants that can fill those roles and keep your country’s economy strong in the short term. Countries that fail to recognize that are going to have a rough time.
Of course there are plenty of other reasons that immigration should be accepted. I just figure conservatives are really the only ones who oppose it and they tend to think in terms of the bottom line and their own selfish interests, so I thought I would frame it in a way that would appeal to them.
It’s pretty stupid and short sighted to hate foreigners. Every developed country has a declining birth rate right now and an inverted pyramid age graph where there are far more elderly people than young people. The only way countries can keep up their current level of productivity is by allowing immigration. Ban immigration and you basically guarantee your country is going to suffer economically.
Of course the racists think that this is a “white genocide” which is obviously bullshit. The entire Earth is on a trend of declining populations. It’s actually estimated that we very likely will hit a peak population of 11 billion and then it will start to drop dramatically and could drop down as far as 6 billion by 2100.
Here’s a wikipedia article about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projections\_of\_population\_growth#/media/File:World\_Population\_Prospects.svg
And a nice picture from the same article showing the trend: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0e/World_Population_Prospects.svg/1280px-World_Population_Prospects.svg.png
Who the hell would have guessed that we’d have to deal with not one but two potentially civilization ending threats in our lifetimes? I want off this crazy ride please!
But then why is it available in my command line terminal as a command that I can use? Like when I type do and then hit TAB twice to list commands that match the output is do done dofsck etc... but when I just enter do in the command line or do --help I get bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'do'
I would assume that since I can run sudo apt update that I could also run do apt update where it would run it not as a super user. I know just apt update would do that too, but I’m just so curious if it’s possible to use do as a user-level sudo or what else it might be able to do.
Serious question, what exactly does do do? In my terminal I can see that do is a command but all I get is bash: syntax error near unexpected token do’and obviously with such a common name it's hard to find information on google about whatdo` actually does.
Banning abortion is the number one way to make sure more abortions happen, and more women die as a result of unsafe abortions. If you’re in favor of banning abortions, then you’re not doing it to “protect children” or whatever stupid reason, you’re doing it because you hate women. Either that or you’re woefully uneducated about everything surrounding the “abortion debate” which has no right being a debate, there is an objectively correct side, and it’s the pro-choice side.
If you’re pro-life or just don’t know much about it, please educate yourselves:
NBC article about how abortion rates are four times lower in countries where it’s legal
WHO report on abortion
Amnesty International fact sheet about abortions
US centric study by NPR about how abortion bans punish women by removing their right to choose and having pathetic maternal support systems
If you really want to protect children, then make sure your schools are teaching proper sex education, and that contraceptives are readily accessible to young people, so that fewer unwanted pregnancies are happening and that children are welcomed into a loving family who is prepared mentally, emotionally, and financially to take care of them because they chose to have children rather than being forced to.
There are plenty of distros which can be operated entirely through graphical user interfaces. Ubuntu, for example.
You can use Linux for free which has never been shittified.
Get out of here with this racist bullshit
We’re not enemies as soon as a Windows user walks in. Or… Uuuugh… A Mac user.
I don’t really get it either. My best guess is it’s a reference to a recursive function that calls itself with a return statement?
At the very least you’d think they’d get C:\> correct, but I guess whoever made that was probably on iOS or Linux.
I wonder what the CLI for “They” does. Pretty odd that it takes 8 arguments, let alone starting with an uppercase letter.
What are you crazy? They’re completely different! You think ASCII code 01100100 is the same as ASCII code 01000100? COME ON!
Seriously though, if Linux would implement a fuzzy search for capitalized and uncapitalized letters that would be pretty cool. Like if you do cd downloads it should be able to pretty easily find that you meant cd Downloads
This is a pretty roundabout way of saying back-end vs front-end.
An investigation from a neutral third party is a good thing, but in this case LTT hired the third party investigator so the investigators obviously have an incentive to find LTT innocent of all charges since LTT is paying them through Linus Media Group (LMG). It’s better than nothing, but it’s like when there’s an internal affairs investigation into police misconduct… by the police… Nobody believes it and for good reason.
