For me it was Manjaro that helped me switch over, and now I’m on Fedora. Didn’t like Mint either.

Nice, but highlighting a particular Linux distro might not be great. I see the point in minimizing amount of choices, but many people may not like default Mint experience.

Nice! The more I hear about Piefed, the more I am inclined to check it out

In Russia, this is basically a default option alongside straight black tea with lemon.

It goes so far that even some name brands made international series based on Russian Earl Grey (btw, none I’ve tried capture the correct taste, but the general direction is right):

So, in my case this was just growing up on those great teas

Lemmy still relies on upvotes for ranking the feed, so, farming them makes sense, it’s just isolated per each post.

And I believe the issue might get worse as Lemmy grows. The reason Reddit came up with karma and all that is because the more people you have on your platform, the more baddies you have to account for.

For now, Lemmy is small enough for a basic interpersonal reputation to mostly just work, but as it grows, we need something else. Presumably, not karma.

What I read was “don’t let these bastards stop you”, as in “whatever they do, you have your place in science or any other pursuit you make”.

It doesn’t mean “no change needs to be made”. Rachel didn’t give up, and was right about it, and it’s good she spoke up.

Those are two real medical diagnoses - Swyer syndrome or XY gonadal dysgenesis for XY women (occurs in about 1:100000 women) and de la Chapelle syndrome or XX male syndrome for XX men (occurs in about 1:20000 to 1:30000 men)

Here is a NORD report on Swyer syndrome, as well as the original article on de la Chapelle syndrome: 1.https://rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/swyer-syndrome/ 2.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1762158/

I don’t think the game wanted to paint an “unbridgeable gap” here, as the author says. The way Mio and Zoe get more into each other’s stories is exactly the testament to the way this gap can be closed through a unique shared experience, and to the way one genre can enrich the other.

I play Split Fiction with my girlfriend, and she is a fantasy fangirl, while I am very sci-fi, so the characters land just perfectly. And I can’t help but notice that, as Mio and Zoe get more open-minded and try to look into the root of how those two preferences formed, me and my girlfriend also get more passionate for each other’s interests.

And that’s one of the most powerful things about the game. It helps to deconstruct our notions and perceptions about both genres, and become more open to each other’s vision.

Basically, it allows you to steal all the code and use it in your closed-source programs, giving a green light for corporations to use open-source code without giving anything back.

GPL doesn’t allow that, forcing you to open-source anything that was produced using other GPL-licensed code. That’s, for example, why so much of Linux software is open-source - it commonly relies on various dependencies that are GPL-licensed, so there is no other legal option other than sharing the code as well.

Yeah I sure meant that

Thanks for challenging me up on that with evidence.

Sad to know this does happen.

The elections are commonly rigged, and budgetary employees are often forced to promote Putin and the United Russia party.

But then you made them right!

That’s a positive life lesson :D

(Also: just apply a bit more pressure and make sure you keep on doing it up until the lowest point your nails can take, then simply roll it with your palms, squeeze it just a tiny bit et voila! Helped me at least)

That’s a smart move. But won’t your evil self be interested in screwing the experiment uo?

Interesting. From my observations (I’m male, so take this with a grain of salt), women and girls are generally given positive attention - which might be unwarranted in its own right, but I rarely see hostility to this group of gamers.

There is even a phenomenon of male gamers, especially among teens, to represent themselves as female to either just get more positive response in players or to actively abuse this for gaining social perks.

I’ve tried it and I absolutely do not trust it.

And them covering left and right is part of it, yes. It works with made up American definitions of left and right, in which centrists to moderate rights are put on the left. As a result, international coverage is normally represented as left-biased, while really, Ground News and a broader American political landscape is right-biased. This is not a fair coverage and it and it doesn’t allow you to break through the propaganda.

Overall, concept is good, but if you follow this and think you are well-balanced and informed, you are not.

I’ll save everyone the trouble. If you want unbiased news, Ground News is not for you.

The most hilarious part is that Ground News tries to present itself as “unbiased” by covering news from “left” and “right”, but it does so from a US perspective, so almost all international sources are considered “left”.

They are not left, it’s you who is right, lol.

Which, BTW, highlights the broader issue of American politics, which is that people were honestly made to believe moderate right is the center, or even left. It is not.

Yeah, cheaters bother me way less than some random program with root level access able to monitor everything it wants

By level of confidence, from top to bottom:

Bitcoin will dump soon and then raise up again around 2028

Trump will stay in power until next elections (and yes, elections will still take place)

Ukraine will have to surrender to Russia around late 2025-early 2026, boosting authoritarian regimes around the world

Linux desktop share will raise to 6% by 2027
