Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Never buying milk from Walmart againEnglish
292·2 months agosome whole milk has cream that settles at the top. Are you sure it was actually bad?
Edit: looks like you’re not the only one with issues with this brand. If you keep the container you can get a refund from the manufacturer or walmart.

politics @lemmy.world•2 Key Democrats Come Out And Say It: Trump Has 'Some Kind Of Dementia'English
7·3 months agoCynical view: neoliberals are in bed with republicans, gotta follow the money and lobbyists.
A kinder take: The dems definitely have a messaging problem.
Bernie and AOC will tell it to you straight.

politics @lemmy.world•2 Key Democrats Come Out And Say It: Trump Has 'Some Kind Of Dementia'English
17·3 months agoBusiness climate would be better under Vance, at least he won’t throw tariff tantrums and we know what to expect. Companies might actually start hiring again. Trump is so volatile that companies are hesitant to do anything right now, its just low hire, low fire wait it out for the next 3 years.
Edit: I would be surprised if Trump gets removed under the 25th amendment or impeached. The rules state the VP and majority of the cabinet would need to declare him unfit, then President could challenge, then you need a super-majority of two-thirds votes in both houses for it to stand. Very unlikely sequence of events. Unless something drastically changes in the midterm elections, I think its more likely for Trump to stay on as a puppet if he really has dementia or mental decline.

92·3 months agoWhy do you make baseless claims like that? They refunded everyone when they didn’t meet their funding goals, and also committed to creating a special edition phone in the next campaign for everyone who supported. You can see the campaign here on indiegogo
Edit: Librem and Purism the controversial ones, not Liberux

601·3 months agoThis linux phone by Liberux seems like the most promising option in the near future. The crowdfunding campaign failed this summer but the project is still moving forward, just waiting to hear more from them @Liberux
Also GrapheneOS but not sure how far along any of this is: “We plan to partner with OEMs to have devices produced meeting all our requirements, providing additional privacy/security features beyond them and ideally shipping with GrapheneOS rather than massively lowering our standards.”
Edit: here’s a recent post from GrapheneOS from August 2025:
After living in D for half my life, the lack of decent Mexican food makes me a G person too.
I’ll argue that C has a pretty solid showing. Southern Italy, Greece, Croatia, Serbia, the rest of the Balkans, Turkey, Ukraine, Russia, Northern China, Central Asia, Mongolia, Northern Japan. There’s a lot going on there.

6·3 months agoAgreed on the stupidity. He should have had PR running his accounts or at least approving his posts. But now that the cat is out of the bag I’m really conflicted about being a Proton Visionary subscriber, and try to use other services like Filen, Cryptpad, Bitwarden, Aegis, etc, so I’m not all concentrated on Proton like I was on Google Suite.
I just made a Tuta mail account for if I do decide to move away from Proton.

4814·3 months agoThere’s a lot more nuance to it than just ‘Proton CEO supports Trump (and therefore all of Trump’s policies)’
From the comments: “Andy’s statement was to recognise the choice of the Assistant Attorney General for Antitrust division at DOJ. This is someone who has history of going after tech monopolies and allowing room for the little guys (startups) to have a fair chance to grow and innovate. This was not a political endorsement.”
And at the very least the CEO controversy reveals all the issues with America’s two party Sith or Jedi system, there’s no room for nuance or discussion, just rage. Look at all the other top comments here.

For all your gaming needs, there’s a Steam app you can download from whatever app store or flathub, or download/install directly.
I went from Windows to Mint Cinnamon, to PopOS, to PopOS Cosmic Alpha for the last year on both my laptop and desktop. PopOS and PopOS Cosmic Alpha have been great, minimal issues for me on Cosmic with gaming but there were a few hiccups or delays with newly launched games, more so an issue with Nvidia drivers than the OS. For example I had to wait a month or two after Starfield launched because there were bugs with the Nvidia drivers.
Protondb is a great resource both for checking if a game runs well on Linux, and also checking troubleshooting steps if you do run into an issue, there might be some advice on what worked for other people to get a specific game running.
Also avoid Razer or Corsair gaming mice or do your research on the specific model before buying unless you want headaches with not being able to edit the RGB settings. Best if you still have access to a windows machine if you want to own anything Corsair (or are fine with not being able to edit RGB settings). I have a Logitech G502X without RGB because of all the headaches I was having with my last few Razer and Corsair mice.
Edit: OpenRGB is another resource if you have an RGB device and need to change some settings, there’s a list of supported devices on the website.
