Yes. One is also a doctor. She got vaccinated earlier than most of us. Same with boosters.

I'm in Asia. I can't speak for everyone but the people I know distrust the CCP much more than the US government. Sure, the US is far from blameless, but at least over here the CCP has a much worse reputation. I guess that's one factor.

Another is more than a few people seem to think Meta is strictly a private company while tiktok is somehow being used/controlled by the Chinese government.

Not to mention long COVID. Personally know at least 2 people who got it (myocarditis or something? Can't remember).

In puberty? Hannah Montana Linux.

Kim Jong Un is god? Red Star OS. There's a Linux distro for everyone.

EndeavourOS is more like an opinionated Arch install

Fellow EOS user and this is a hilarious yet accurate description. Still have vanilla arch but EOS on my laptop now since I tend to mess with it often.

This. That was my initial reaction before checking out the community. Your description is accurate, although I kinda wish they didn't choose that community name. Lol.

Loving your username, btw, PugJesus.

“It is simply impossible to solve the issue of inflation in conditions ... when the military-industrial complex receives unlimited funding, when everything they ask for is given to them, when the share of this military-industrial complex in the economy grows at a very rapid pace,”

Fuck Putin and his stupid war. It's always the masses that suffer.

Yep. During my very short (6 mos) stint as a tech support rep for Dell, I've learned to assume your customer is an idiot. Even when they're using techie terms or jargon (and at times more so). Never assume other things besides that or you'll probably regret it.

You have to be very clear and precise. A single misunderstanding can take a simple problem a lot of time to get fixed.

Honestly, if I didn't need chat apps like Slack for my job I'd be pretty content with one of these. They'd still be good as secondary phones, but unless they can support chat apps (without other online apps like FB, IG, and even browsers - so good luck with that) they can't be my only/main device.

Is it just me? My comments don't seem to appear on other instances. I've tried checking using my older accounts (subbed to the same communities and instances) and none of my comments are appearing. Also tried on multiple apps. The issue started just a few days ago, iirc.

I was thinking I was blocked/banned, but this happens on multiple instances. What did I do. 😭

 

Saw a post about a user saying he enjoys reading the modlogs for some reason. So I went ahead and checked it out which got me thinking...

Have we deleted/censored anything in this instance yet? Have we banned anyone yet?

Anyone willing to take one for the team/instance?

(The last line was a joke. Don't ban me plis.)

 

Basically the title.

Here's a quick background, though (because I have nothing better to do today). Suffered a failed EOS update on my laptop and it refused to boot. Rather than fix it, I decided to do something I've been thinking about for a while now: I installed NixOS (I still use Arch on my VM, btw).

Problem is it's been a bit long since I last set up my laptop I can't remember everything I did on it. Lol.

So what do you guys install after changing distros? What are your must-have applications (for any distro)? I'm already running zen kernel, got bitwarden up and running, hardened firefox and installed ungoogled chromium. Seems there's no standalone pihole (yet?) for Nix so I'll be checking that out as well. Thanks in advance for your input!

How's your weekend? (iusearchlinux.fyi)

Just curious. On weekends (usually on Saturdays), I usually go out to eat and try a new restaurant or two. Sundays are down time so it can get pretty boring (like right now).

Do you guys have any routines during weekends? Drop some ideas of stuff to do. Your brother from another mother is bored as hell over here. Lol.

Windows Pro help (iusearchlinux.fyi)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by CheshireSnake@iusearchlinux.fyi to c/windows_help@iusearchlinux.fyi
 

Hi. I just noticed my Windows Pro is neither a professional nor does it have a window.

I also tried Windows Home but there was no house.

I think I was scammed. Help. This is there I got it from.

 

Windows DE sucks. What are some good alternatives?
