ButtBidet [he/him]

I use my (likely knockoff) Kobo that I got cheap from a shady online shop. Adding EPUBs is so damn easy.

So I read somewhere that Fedora has great nvidia support and I installed it and everything worked

OK maybe I’ll try Fedora or Arch, cuz Mint is being weird about my video card.

Actually you might be right. I was just a bit lazy to research it.

I’ve just seen enough Wikipedia sockpuppet investigations, where the server admin can see what device you’re using. I’m assuming that they can often view your OS and device name, which indeed are easily changable.

This isn’t particularly helpful, but getting off of is gonna end up being a good thing, long term. There’s been a hundred incidents these past few years that have frustrated me on traditional social media. I was very annoyed at the time, but the end result was to get me off their terrible platform, and my mental health has been way better.

If you want to read reddit without posting, just access via old dot reddit dot com. There are browser extensions that do this automatically, which are amazing. You can even access NSFW stuff if need be.

If you need to post to again, you almost certainly need a new device. Reddit probably blocked your MAC address as well as your IP. But you’d probably need a new router cuz that has a MAC address as well. There’s weird ways to change or spoof MAC addresses, but AFAIK they’re not simple.

Maybe someone can correct me on the last paragraph, as I’m only 90% sure.

Honestly I feel a bit uncomfortable seeing nudity in films. I think “he’s this person who’s half my age, so agreed to take her clothes off and be filmed because her job required it”.

Involuntary pornography, my guy. How are you not disgusted at the guy who was arrested?

Intel is on the BDS list though

I know very very little about India, but it seems like the country is going the neoliberal route of Amerika, bringing some limited wealth, but a heap ton of poverty and stress/competition for those who do have a job. I admire India for their educational system, how hard working and responsibly their citizens are, and how much their country has grown since independence (a difficult feat).

I know that not every Indian is a BJP member, but that’s gotta be embarrassing frustrating as MAGA is in the US. I’ve seen some center-right Indian friends go hard right these last few years. This seems to be everywhere now, though, not just India.

Don’t at me, this is from a place of profound ignorance.

Edit: changed a word so I don’t come off like a racist prick

I’m not very knowledgeable about this sorta thing. I’m just gonna say that modding games with the Flatpak version of Steam is way easier.

Are you really though?

I’ll let you guys make the decision about what to do. At least do let me comment that supporting Intel is supporting genocide.

I type this on a 1 year old desktop with an Intel chip. So hey, we’re all learning.

Is Lemmy going to allow Intel posts and forget that Intel is on the top of the list for BDS?

@AgreeableLandscape@lemmygrad.ml sorry to tag the top mod

I actually gave up getting Roblox to work on Linux. It had more issues than most games.

Fuck Bill Barr. His commentary on Bill Maher was centrist at best. I’ll never forgive him for the other fucked up shit he said, or at least until he actually apologises (spoiler: he won’t).

The Australian Strategic Policy Institute thinktank estimates that 95 civilian universities in China have links to the defence sector.

Oh, the think tank with the guy who gets satellite images of schools and says that it’s definitely a Uighur concentration camp, the one funded by the military.

You realise that they are entering with valid visas, right?

I know that I was almost an adult when Harry Potter came out, but I really tried to get into them as everyone else loved them, but the writing was flat af.

I was a huge Tom Clancy fan as a teen. Thank fucking God I grew out of that shit, or otherwise I’d be a massive chud. The worst fucking part of his books is the way he writes women and relationships, every woman needs to be rescued, and they have no personality of their own.

I just double checked. This was NOT yet published in the NY Times or Washington Post.
