I’ve had LMDE on a USB stick for a few months now, waiting for the right time to boot it up on my wife’s PC, and she finally agreed to try it tonight. Cross your fingers, boys; we may soon have another convert.

If you’re going to speak for all conservatives, you’re also going to take responsibility for all of their beliefs and decision-making, like the desire to outlaw contraceptives. If you don’t want that, don’t speak for others.
It’s exceptionally difficult already for a woman to get sterilized. The decider may be whether sterilization has the same stigma/religious fervor around it that abortion has in that people will willingly waste their weekends off protesting against it.
I’m optimistic, but America likes to disappoint me.
I’m not streaming it, it’s on my media server, so there are no ads. I don’t pay for any services except Shudder because it’s still cheap and niche.
Same, been watching Dead Like Me and Xena: Warrior Princess and it’s pretty distracting when it happens.
You could also go with no DE and check out Fluxbox, i3, or sway. There’s something about Fluxbox that’s still charming all these years later.
FWIW, these are effective only when both are used on the same circuit. If you live in an older home, the chances of this being the case are higher.
My entire apartment, except for the washroom, is on the same circuit. It also means I can’t run an air conditioner without tripping the breaker. :|
What a nothing burger of an article. I’m so ashamed to be Canadian amidst our government’s abject failure (really, it’s a refusal) to rescue Palestinians through the asylum program that was proposed months ago.
We are beholden to Israel, so I will be astonished if even 1/3 of the 45,000 actually end up here.
I use Cockpit to manage my system and containers and Dashy as a browser dashboard. It’s similar to Heimdall but more minimal.
I also run Otterwiki and I’m planning on documenting my setup, but I haven’t got around to it yet.
That sounds like a fucking nightmare. I had to troubleshoot poorly-written-yet-somehow-functional GOTOs a lot when I was a BAS technician and that’s annoying enough.
I’m not suggesting that this is the sole reason, but have you considered the possibility that the US supports Israel in part because it is a white-majority nation of largely European ancestry among Arab states? Especially considering the circumstances that led to its creation. I am more and more convinced lately that this plays a part, though it may be small.
However, what you mention is clearly happening too. It’s likely a variety of factors, but I would agree that money is a big motivator. AIPAC is certainly able to achieve a high level of autonomy, so that would point to it having tacit endorsement/approval from the US political establishment and that’s more than likely from legalized bribes.
That’s a very fair and reasonable analysis. I just think that Biden actually believes in Zionism and fundamentally agrees that Israel should exist and “defend itself” (i.e., commit genocide). He isn’t just playing politics like Reagan. That’s why he does things that don’t seem to make logical sense.
There’s obviously something going on behind the scenes though, I agree. There’s probably a lot of money being paid so politicians on both sides sit on their hands, among other things. Here in Canada, Israel lobbies aggressively, pays for our representatives to take trips there, etc.
But I do think Joe Biden is an earnest Zionist himself.
Biden has been a Zionist advocate for 40+ years. He probably believes that supporting Israel gives the US a stronghold in the middle east, and he’s probably right.
Israel is a proxy state for the “war on terror” so that the area’s resources can be extracted by western powers with little organized resistance. It’s textbook imperialism.
Where did I say it’s vital? Lol. I don’t give a shit. But it’s still news. I don’t care about everything that’s in the news, do you? Sounds exhausting.
I didn’t realize that being party to a civil suit meant being indefinitely detained in a foreign country. /s
Surely you wouldn’t expect the US to allow civilian sailors from a domestic ship to be detained in another country with no timeline for repatriation. There would be something done.
Many people have no trouble attending virtual depositions or flying to attend trial. Indefinite detention (again, for a civil suit) is a pretty big ask just so some insurance/city investigators and lawyers can have in-person access.
Morrissey’s face was not captured in the video, but fellow lawmakers were able to identify her by her gray hair.
Lol, fucking roasted.
The FBI and the US Coast Guard already cleared them to leave. The city wants them to stay.
Yeah, where have you been? The concept of a celebrity is not new.
I like Debian a lot, and Mint seems fine too, but I don’t like the styling, or Cinnamon really. I use Fluxbox (WM only, no DE) with a bunch of tiny customizations.
The main reason I picked it is that I like to tinker and she doesn’t, so I think that Cinnamon will be the easiest for her coming from Windows 10.
We both have AMD GPUs (and she has a AMD CPU too) so I haven’t had to deal with Nvidia headaches.
I like the glacial updates so things don’t break as easily. I don’t want to spend hours fixing a system (hers or mine tbh) unless I have to. For anything that I need the latest features for, there’s usually a repo I can add to Aptitude or a Flatpak.
