• never sent a postcard

36 years old. Just grew up mostly without access to music until I got my first PC. But I did have the opportunity to use a radio with a cassete tape player a few times as a kid.

Even Nvidia drivers have come a long way recently. I used to always have a windows setup and used it more than Linux whenever I was off work, but this year I was finally confident enough on Linux to ditch it. I have Nvidia gpus on all my PCs, with both Intel and AMD cpus, and they are all working perfectly fine with multiple 4k screens.

So far there were only two games I was unable to play on Linux - Demoncrawl and Inzoi. And the second is filled with reports saying it works ootb for other Linux users, so if I had tried to tinker I could probably get it to work. (I haven’t had to tinker with anything else tho).

I agree with you in general, but there are people out there making specific distros with that sort of stuff in mind too. Ublue’s OSs is pretty much that: “just use it and leave the tinkering to us”. And I would argue if you’re not a developer doing advanced stuff, those work just as smoothly as windows does.

And you don’t see them pulling the same shit with Iceland. I guess the name trick worked in the end.

The longer they stick around, the less safe they’ll be.

If they make higher premiums specific for teslas, then those dealerships can just stop working with teslas.

In most of the US they have HOA who likely forbid such things for an absurd fear that a slightly uglier house down in your street will tank your property’s value.

I agree about the Democrat party, but I wonder if the regular people of those states aren’t closer to Canadians in their views. If they were to join I imagine the existing party wouldn’t carry over and new ones would need to be organized.

When they do the exact same thing after you already forgave them before.

Also when they were given plenty of warning before doing whatever they did.

So, for both cases, it’s when they show that they are OK with breaking your trust because they expect to be forgiven afterwards.

Because the US doesn’t have any opposition parties or any local leadership that can organize anything. Protests in other places are usually organized by unions, for example. In America everyone just sits at their own couch thinking “someone should be doing something by now” and it never crosses their minds that they should be that someone.

Maybe “Most Americans support Trump” is wrong, but “most Americans do not oppose Trump” isn’t.

It was the cashier on a stationery shop. She had to hold the mouse in place with one hand so it wouldn’t move, then used the other hand to click it.

I once watched an adult need both hands to click on a button and haven’t been surprised since.

Aphantasia can stop you.
