57 system apps still enabled.
110 system apps removed.

There's literally no loss of functionality in the phone or any of my apps, no errors, no missing features, after removing 2/3 of everything that was on it.
Feels kind of nice, actually. I just wish I could degoogle this thing, though...

Since this work contained positive depictions of gay men, explicit (by Chinese standards) gay sex scenes, and resurrected the ghost of Tiananmen Square, at the time, no mainland Chinese publisher would have published it, nor would the author be safe from government reprisals. Hence, its anonymous publication on the Internet.

Ah, such a free and progressive society!

Just use magnets.
Pls send my Nobel price by mail, I'm not good at speeches.

Uh, so how's that "limit warming to 1.5°C" target coming along?

Global average temperatures from January to September were 1.4 C higher than 1850-1900, almost breaching the 1.5 C warming goal of the 2015 Paris Agreement, C3S reported.
That threshold is seen as essential to avoid the most catastrophic consequences of climate change.

FUCK

Ah yes, because making drugs illegal has worked so well in the past.

This actually works. All you have to do is decelerate the train once (because it's spinning with the world while you build it).

And solve the trivial engineering task of reducing all friction and air resistance to zero. Oh, and that of getting on and off the train.

The Fediverse isn't a platform with a server you can take down, though. That's the beauty of decentralization.

The only ones who have to be concerned about the looks are the instance admins.
Lemmy isn't a product in need of marketing.

Oh boy, here I go distro-hopping again.
Just kidding - you can pry Slackware from my cold, dead hands.

Either use Stable or Unstable. Testing is actually the most unstable of the three branches, due to how Debian works:

Updated packages are first introduced into Experimental, then into Unstable when they actually build and run. So Unstable is equivalent to Arch's main branch.
Then they automatically enter Testing after a few weeks without anyone reporting a critical bug.

What this means: Testing is the only branch where the decision over what enters isn't made by a human.

If someone notices critical bugs in Testing, the packages may be kicked out of Testing again until the bugs are fixed. So Testing is the only branch where packages can simply disappear when you run an update.

It's also the most insecure branch: When a vulnerability is discovered, the packages in Stable are patched to close it. The packages in Unstable are updated to a new version that closes it. In Testing, the vulnerability stays until the new version eventually migrates down the line again after spending a while in Unstable.

I've run Unstable for years. IMO it's a great rolling release distro with horrible branding.
