Humidity ruins PLA. It turns brittle AF once it has absorbed any major amount of moisture, and that is significantly sped up with temperature.

Any strikes occurring after January 20th will be met with immediate deadly military force and decade long prison sentences, so the port owners are just going to ride it out.

The first amendment is dead

Don't let Matt gaetz know about her wearabouts

If enabling fascist means funny market number go up, they will do it.

 

My go to back in The Day was just Ubuntu because I was lazy. We're talking the 14.04/16.04 days. Ubuntu was simple and mostly just worked. I now find myself needing to de-spywareify as the coming administration is likely to force Microsoft into tracking "dissidents" so need to get back into weaning myself off the Windows teat.

I recently dualbooted my main desktop with Ubuntu 24.04 and have been... entirely underwhelmed. The whole separation between APT and snap packages doesn't work well together and is really the big problem I have, as a lot of standard deb packages just refuse to install properly now. the UI is hard to use and doesn't make me happy, and it's not been playing nice with my Zen 4 desktop when it comes to ACPI power states (no sleep, doesn't reliably turn the power off when i ask it to turn off, etc). So overall, I am just not terribly interested in using Ubuntu anymore.

What I primarily want is the sort of "mostly just works" like old 16.04 but still gave you the full ability to monkey under the hood- and is also something based on a normal distro that most people write guides for because I am a smoothbrain. Should I just head to using basic plain jane Debian or something?

Bye bye first amendment rights!

I guess Trump's weekly marching orders chat with Putin doesn't count

Certain things are OK to not have a political opinion on. Example: Taxes are complicated and most people don't understand them; most probably want to pay less of them but do not really need to put their limited political energy to focusing on them.
That applies to most nonpolitical subjects too... most things to have an opinion on like food, movies, music whatever, are generally of little consequence.

Things that affect the base existence of large swaths of the population, aka human rights, are not something a living citizen can admit a "don't care" opinion on. You either want to live free or you don't, and having no opinion on such is how you end up without the legal right to any opinions..

The key to both is to have a complete information stream before forming any opinion or comitting to not having one. I do a nonzero amount of research even before writing a lot of comments here on Lemmy to make sure my facts are straight, and maybe 40% of the time discover it's either not worth my time to write, or I was initially wrong and my comment shouldn't be made.

ITS NOT A "JOKE" AND NEVER FUCKING HAS BEEN

????? i was talking about car engines? Hyundai's Theta engine series has been cursed with design flaws and horrible machining quality for so many years now that I don't really trust any of their vehicles enough to even consider switching to one.

Listen if I did the Grammer English more gooder, I would have become a writer or a journalist and not an engineer.

Well that one has "accountability" in the name and Trump hates that word.

Dan Osborn has a chance to break Republican control of the senate with an extremely labor-friendly and human rights friendly policy book. He may not be "liberal" liberal but Nebraska is unlikely to ever flip otherwise.
