This is more about cloud storage than anything else though

“the survival of the center” lmao he fucking killed it

Another post said facebook has 3 billion MAU, reddit 800M iirc, they can hold out for a while as they circle. I don’t think they are going to disappear anytime soon.

Then we agree. I guess others don’t, judging by the downvotes my post got 😂

Had a look, all I can say is that they don’t quite come up when I browse all, and if they do I just don’t bother and skip over them. They’re not funny and the message therein is not one I support.

What’s so hard about that? You are jumping to conclusions because my account is registered on lemmy.ml because at the time it seemed like a good place to start.

Stalin wasn’t the greatest benefactor.

Now you say it about Trump, Netanyahu and Putin.

You can’t prevent people from using older versions. New versions need to be tested, by the time this process is finished, upstream already released a newer version.

If you use the talking point of “own customizations”, did you get that from the mint thread and did you read it through? Software should come as is, but in some cases devs work slower or have other priorities so I understand bugs get fixed some other way. The whole pipeline from dev to user isn’t as simple as you think.

Could someone give some examples of these leftist propaganda posts? I just browse all top day, maybe they get diluted enough for me to overlook these… i’ve seen this argument pass by so many times.

I’m not arguing any of that. Package maintainers are doing invisible and often thankless work. The way this person communicates really struck a cord.

I avoid Bottles out of principle because one of the devs doesn’t understand what open source means and harasses distros to remove older versions.

Also referring to “inferior package manager” in that post.

Same dev harassed Mint for shipping Gnome Calendar in their repositories.

Double digits! So happy, 1 in 10 desktops run Linux.

I just deleted all my comments, first edited them before deletion with power delete suite. It ran for days, but eventually, as far as I can tell, all deleted.

A few of the big subs kept sending me messages, that my comment was removed because I didn’t have email verification. My account is 15 years old I think, email wasn’t a requirement then. Crazy that some subs now enforce this to post.

It might be stored locally, then shared with a call home through telemetry after which Microsoft then sells it as “anonymized” data, which is then again recombined with other sets by the buyer to recreate your profile.

I read that they can combine 3 anonymized datasets to fairly accurately identify a person.

No idea why that’s such a hot take by them. So many people have AC here. Houses, establishments, public areas, and increasing for obvious reasons.

AC here are nearly always split units though. Our windows don’t slide up, so harder to install that type of AC unit that sits on the sill.

That license allows you to take the source, make changes and keep them to yourself. Which is not in the spirit of open source imho.

I would simply delete sda1 and sda2, then that whole part will be available as 1. Format as ext4.

If you play games with steam you could then use it as a space to put games. Steam handles it for you. When you add a disk via Steam settings, it will be listed as an option.

Moving partitions is a tedious task and doesn’t always pan out, I personally wouldn’t risk it. Let it be a thing to do if you would ever reinstall completely for whatever reason and start fresh then.

Also, backup backup backup.

Link rot is gonna be crazy

Russia had some reputation of being a large and powerful army, but as soon as they attacked Ukraine it showed the world it actually had shit. It basically lost its credibility of being a world power because their arsenal is old fashioned and they were just throwing in bodies.

I feel the US is going through the same. Everyone saw them as an undefeatable nation, but this little stint in Iran had their stockpiles dropping faster than expected and it’s not going as they expected. Hegseth and Trump contradict each other and besides squandering their soft power over the past years, they are also showing that their military might has limits.

They are both still to be reckoned with and they are capable of doing great harm to innocent bystanders, but my view has changed a bit.

They’re becoming “smart” as well, unfortunately.

And Amazon often has a video in the image caroussel
