I get the point. I would describe Windows as a prison, where you're ordered what to do and your boundaries are tied, and Linux as a playground where children can choose, learn, and experiment. Children belong in the playground and not the prison.

I recently sat down and recorded a podcast with @geoff_eg to talk all about the Fediverse - what it is, how photographers can use it, and how it is different than your typical social network experience. Those of you looking to explain it to others might enjoy the listen/watch:

I've been using Derrick's Boot And Nuke (DBAN) for many years. I should compare the two to see how they stack up.

done. Installed Bottles a few weeks ago and have been impressed by the ease of use. Definitely helped in avoiding Windows another time.

ok, but nobody wants to support anything Mozilla anymore. I think a lot of people want Mullvad VPN as a flatpak, which this one is an overpriced rebrand of :blobshrug:

@vonxylofon it's perfectly okay not to know what something means that's why the article has text too ;)

The thing is that I ยปknowยซ what it says, but tech headings these days have become such a mumbo jumbo shorthand of previously unrelated words that even connecting which words go together is a feat. ๐Ÿ™‚

And I'm saying that as someone who has read tech headings since 2000. Maybe I'm just old, and you kids should get off my lawn...

Maybe they could do them weekly with different specialties on alternating times, thus different volunteers on different days.

US people are so scared at the moment.

I can find people who are unhappy about the current political situation in the US, but when I ask them to help resist, they either disappear or get angry with me for asking them to do something that they find terrifying: standing up to bullies.

I can be polite, gentle, kind, understanding. Hey, I get being scared and not feeling ready! Do what you can where you are.
What is disspiriting is having them turn around and furiously tell me off for making them feel badly about themselves: this is not their fault--and, what's wrong with me!

Please, instead of succumbing to shame, take a tiny step and see what you can do!

It's quite difficult here in Canada too -- especially in places near the border (and most of the most populated areas are all near the border).

We (Canadians in general) are not visiting the USA nearly so much any more (down over 30%), and small USA businesses in border towns are suffering very badly as a result.

Americans aren't visiting Canada quite as much either, though only down about 10%. Some are afraid they will have trouble getting home. Some are afraid we're so angry with them that they don't feel safe coming here.

Overall we hear lots from Americans who want to remain our friends, and are just as angry at Trump, but few seem willing or able to actually try to do anything about it other than complain and commiserate.



I have shared many bathrooms on here that lack privacy. Those were nothing. Sure, this one only has 3 walls, one of which has an open panel of glass... but nothing prepared me for the TRANSPARENT FLOOR.

I'm working on networking.
Big brain energy needed. I've read and studied a lot about networking in FPS games throughout the years, but my own implementations so far have been rather unimpressive.

You think I can knock it out of he park this time around? I've been doing Liblast for 5 years now, this is the 4th from-the-ground-up iteration of the project. I hop I've learned my lesson by now...
