To half the users in this thread, normal people use computers as a means to an end.

“If you’re not prepared to get your hands dirty this OS is not for you” you’ve already lost me, this is unhinged behaviour. You have one life and you choose to spend it fixing your computer so it will do the same things except slightly differently.

But I know this is an unpopular opinion for Linux users.

And not just “a beach on the ocean”, but literally just the open ocean.

Sounds like the government needs to eminent domain them and then rent them for whatever price will fill them. Or if you’re cool, then you’d say it should be for free.

My school gave us swimming lessons but they were not very accommodating to me, I came out of them not knowing how to swim. When I lived with my brother, I taught myself to more or less be able to swim in his pool. It’s just very tiring.

As someone whose second language is French and has everything in French, set your computer to English. it’s so much easier to Google error messages when they’re in English.

The whole thing about flat earthers is that they come up with more and more elaborate explanations to fit each individual observation, when Occam’s razor says that the theory that explains them all should probably be the correct one.

Like, they’ll argue about refraction of light due to hot air being the cause for the disappearance of ships past the horizon, and then their explanation for how time zones work is something else entirely, and why we have seasons, and why planes take the routes they do, and all this other nonsense. They all need separate, complicated explanations, and they willingly accept them and vehemently deny the simplest theory that ties everything together.

The actual explanation for this behaviour is flat earthers are a friend group, doubly so for the people who pushed “globeheads” out of their life. So to change their view is to socially isolate themselves

Third option, stop antagonizing them at the behest of the Americans.

That would be regular Mercator, actually. Greenland is as big as Africa in regular old Mercator projections.

Edit: although maybe with a slight uniform vertical squish

Existing nuclear energy, too.

The need for anti fascism didn’t stop with the arrests of January 6th

Good ol’ Germany getting back to its roots

The thing about it is aluminum cans leach into their contents, especially if left open. Aluminum isn’t particularly harmful in that amount but it’s something you can taste, particularly with acidic contents. Not sure how much water suffers from this, but if it comes through in things with flavour, I’m sure it would come through in water, which is supposed to be flavourless, even if it’s not usually very acidic.

no it’s still stupid

I have 3000 mbps. I literally don’t have a way to verify that they’re delivering those speeds, since I’m limited by the speed of my computers’ motherboard Ethernet ports.

I looked for this in my microwave’s manual on two separate occasions but alas…

Everyone I Don’t Like is Authoritarian: A Guide to Online Political Discourse

It is, because “authoritarian” is a nebulous word not based on any actually reality, used to try to refer to both the USSR and Nazi Germany as if they are similar in any way.

The truth? on .world? lmfao

Pedestrians?

The definition was actually for 4 °C, the point at which water is most dense. At 20 °C the density of water is about 0.997 g/mL. However, we don’t use water to define the metric system anymore, so even at 4 °C - or more precisely 3.983035(670) °C - water is not exactly 1 g/mL.
