Are there seriously no lemmy users on a Mac? Lol.
I use Debian.

Gotta wonder how many state actors have been using it for years.
The passive (or exonerative) voice in that article is infuriating. Police tackle the suspect, but the bystander was just “shot in the head”. By whom? Hard to say when you’re licking boots.
Yes! The whole “lawyers are evil money grabbers” is a corporate psy-op. They want you to think it’s unreasonable for a person to sue a corporation when the corporation’s actions are harmful. They also want you to think defense attorneys are people who just look for technicalities to free guilty people.
They created armies of lawyers for themselves, while making americans distrustful of the ones fighting for normal people. We used to think of lawyers like Atticus Finch or Perry Mason. But now we just think of Saul Goodman and Lionel Hutz.
Yeah, I’m trying to convince everyone to start using signal before the slide towards fascism turns into a drop
Do you think they’re lying to authorities when they get a search warrant? https://signal.org/bigbrother/santa-clara-county/ That would be quite a big deal, and someone will be going to jail if you’re right.
All they have is your phone number, the date the account was created, and the last time it connected to the service. Yes, that represents a vulnerability, but you;re just casting aspersions that the whole thing is compromised.
Maybe there is some super secret NSA back door that Signal engineers aren’t even aware of. But it’s at least pretty clear that the local fascist authorities aren’t getting that info even with a warrant.
I wonder if engineers protested getting rid of the buttons. Who’s responsible for that terrible design trend?
I have a Toyota from around then, and yeah it’s the best. The great thing about that era is the milage is decent, and also I think it’s when abs and traction control became standard on all cars. So I have a manual transmission and aux cord, but it’s not ancient, it’s still very safe and efficient

Embarrassing
Oh right, sometimes I forget people have computers other than old thinkpads
IDK if thats true in 2024. Debian 12 isn’t much harder to setup than mint or Ubuntu, and the version of gnome it ships with is perfectly fine. I’m not a beginner anymore, so maybe there’s something I glossed over.
Oh wait, I just remembered the thing I glossed over. Needing to install sudo would definitely throw a beginner for a loop. (Iirc, you only need to do that if you give a root password during install). And that’s the problem with trying to learn Linux. Someone will tell you the thing is easy, but they forgot about some arcane step
I was more surprised by the northwest. from Casablanca to Algiers to Tunis.
Europe looks less dense than what I expected. And north Africa is way denser than I thought. Which puts the “migrant crisis” in perspective.
the polls showed Hillary was going to trounce Trump pretty handedly.
Not true. She was within the margin of error in the swing states.
I think Fivethityeight’s explanation went something like…
Don’t confuse 538’s model with polls. 538 takes polling data as an input, and then runs simulations that output the odds which side will win.
Polls don’t measure the odds a candidate will win, they measure how many people would vote a certain way if the election were held today. Predictive models take that data and do a lot more than simply average the results.
I meant the players lol
“species” is simply more accurate, and makes multiracial games a little less awkward

This. (although I follow the directions here, which is a little more than apt install). The only thing I couldn’t get on Debian stable is the latest gnome. But when I tried debian testing, it was slightly broken anyway. And gnome extensions could get most of the functionality missing in my older gnome version. Debian stable + flatpak + anaconda + adding repositories (like for firefox) is a perfect compromise.
What’s nice about a stable distro is you can update the things you want to update, and your OS isn’t constantly changing a million packages a week that you don’t even know the function of.
