I am not too clued up to say this or that, but Mental Outlaw on YouTube has been doing very good breakdown on loads of Linux stuff to noobs.
So I will link to this, https://youtu.be/3MwJbRq3-rM
I saw no one mention ZorinOS.
I personally love Mint, tried different distros but I keep crawling back to green Ubuntu
Abraham Lincoln, also Republican President, was probably the first
Abraham Lincoln, also Republican President, supports this message
In high school, in the late 2000s in South Africa, a TV crew came to our school and we were wondering why. So we were sitting in class and the presenter walked past the door talking to the camera and we heard her say, these kids do not know the danger they are in, for all these classrooms were made out of asbestos. Fun times
They wanted to see if there were any cut corners that could help explain the low cost other than government funding and the general low cost of labour in China. Did not find any cut corners during their teardown and sang the cars praises.
Unfortunately shifting blame to reporting is not correct. In a democracy the people have a duty to inform themselves, unfortunately people choose to rather inform themselves with, how you put it “feeds”. They think because they are hearing the same thing over and over, due to being in an echo chamber, they are informed, nope you just reinforced your biases. But the people have sold their duty to these influencers to do their informing for them in an easily digestible manner that makes them feel safe and reinforced their beliefs.
And also know this is off topic, I am a big believer in libertarianism, in a classical sense, not the US way. And I am curious to see how Milei does, and I also open myself up that I could be wrong with his libertarian ways, I believe the proof is unfortunately in the pudding at the end of the day, did it achieve success or not. Disappointed in the scandals so far but I hope Argentina one day achieves the success it truly deserves, maybe this way or maybe another economic model.
But I find Argentina interesting as a case study for my beliefs, like I said will change if I see Argentina fails.
I think aid from the US was the last thing on their mind. Never have I ever voted for a party because what US, EU, China or any other foreign power threatened.
These midterm elections are usually an indication of how the general population feels the current administration is doing, think of the blue wave during Trump’s first midterm.
Is there any indication that wide spread voter suppression or fraud was happening, not just anecdotal but like verifiable like what happened in Venezuela last year. If not I would say whether you like it or not, that is the crux of democracy, the masses have decided
I think you are reading way too much into it, I was mocked for never kissing kissing someone when I was that age. Kids can be cruel, and I think this episode is just surface level deep. The target audience is young teens - children. I do not expect neon genesis evangelion depth in the writing. But maybe you could be right, but usually the hints are way more subtle, like Peter Parker’s jizzed hands in the first Spiderman movie when he wakes up (big puberty analogy). But, for me, the iCarly episode would make it very disturbing if a Nickelodeon show wanted to make subliminal messaging about sex
Geez, I think you had a good point and now it seems you are being burned at the stake. But arguments are good if held in good faith, and I see your point, and mostly agree.
The problem is everyone wants a good house in a good area, yet there is only a limited supply. Houses are a depreciating asset, breaks down etc, the land in a desirable area is what makes it expensive and appreciated. So by logic the landlord took a chance and bought a place to rent out, that will depreciate but they focused on location, location, location in the hope it will bring in a profit (speculation).
Honestly if the area is desirable, close to working areas, good reputation with low crime… It will sell itself and becomes desirable thus increasing price.
But no one forced you to live in a nice area, I moved to a rural town, where a nice family home is cheaper than a 1 bedroom flat in the city more than 3 hours drive from me. Unfortunately yes that means less comfortable options like work or services a city can provide me. But some benefits like I love the isolation and community a small community brings.
Nothing stops anyone from moving. In my country the government has tried to give RDP housing to the poor, except it stays theirs and if you get a work somewhere else or have to move due to wide variety of reasons, sorry lost your housing benefits, you cannot sell or swap or anything, a stupid law and makes people choose between housing or a better paying work, hopefully opposition is trying to give these people ownership rights and further strengthen property rights in general.
There is a salad dressing that also agrees
In South Africa, it is illegal to open carry, unless you are a police officer or security guard. So citizens are required to conceal carry. Yet in the rural areas where I am from, most of the firearm carrying people prefer to open carry, they feel it is a deterrent and easier to reach.
It’s really weird how everyone in America, what I assume we are referring to, wants to conceal carry because the government does not want you to, and here in SA we want to do the opposite because of what the government wants.
PS this is my opinion from personal experience, maybe a lot more are carrying but I do not see them.
Clearly a joke to upset certain people
Imagine the guy that had to go down the slide in front of their glorious leader, like think even in front of your own president you had to take a waterslide, have them take a picture to share to the world
Can we start a thread with like blocking words, but yes blocking makes Lemmy the best
Yeah the Melania strategy doesn’t always work, probably gonna beat Carter’s record
Fuck now I gotta run from the law as well
This cool microscope, is Harvard going to keep it for themselves or are they planning to share the equipment with the rest of the scientific community
I cannot speak for this area of science, but in my field China’s research papers, for example rock mass failure response to complex stress states, are like a god send, really quality work. This is my opinion in my field but if I had to extrapolate… Remember the Soviets with all their propaganda had amazing scientists
Yeah not sure what Ukraine is doing there, clearly a troll. But not even the Soviet Union, China, US, UK all the other does not excuse them from their atrocities. They are all bad, it does not matter if a Communist or a Capitalist is oppressing you, oppression is oppression. Trying to excuse your oppression by referring to the other side does it too is not a valid argument. People deserve freedom not subjugation
