FOSS

Same. I adopted a google account a long time ago, but I’ve finally hit my limit on what they’ve been doing with youtube and everything. Free and open source alternatives are the way to go, it may take a while to catch on or may never fully, but who cares. Switching to linux recently was the best thing I’ve ever done.

I really miss old school MTV though. I feel like, for a time, bands were doing some crazy music videos that were as much works of art as the music itself.

Just watch lol.

The problem is the US is getting dragged into that, and, speaking as someone who knows something about the subject, Iran almost certainly has a few nukes smuggled within US borders. The CIA has recovered quite a few soviet era nukes that were smuggled into the US, Vice did a decent job showing how black market nukes are in the US.

I’m going to laugh and laugh when the collective Muslim world grinds Israel to the dust one day. I’ll probably even get to see it in my lifetime.

They “elected” Hamas. In an election that was never certified, had more votes total than people living there and there hasn’t been an election since.

But even if they legit did vote for Hamas I wouldn’t blame them. Killing Israelis after all they’ve done is just.

The Quaran, Torah, and Bible all have passages on killing atheists.

lol… the KDE crowd seems really devoted, and intent on snagging a new convert. I’ll give it a shot I’m sure. But I’m definitely saving an image of this just in case.

I’m the same way. I just started using Linux and Landed on Pop!OS. Tumbleweed is high on my short list of things to try, but I finally got everything working, and boy is it working well.

I think the reason is my hardware profile is extremely similar to Pop!OS products, so I just happened to land on something per-optimized for my system out of dumb luck. I’m frankly shocked at how far linux has come. Lutro is what we’ve been waiting for on game installs for better than 20 years. Steam integration is of course nice, but I hate using game stores and hate being locked into that.

Anyways, been a cool experience so far.

See, I can’t separate the FACT that their religion calls for our death in their ‘holy and perfect word from god’ called the bible and they follow it still despite that. Their religion also justifies misogyny, slavery, and a myriad of completely immoral things.

It literally says it’s good to kill atheists in their holy book, regardless of which abrahamic religion you choose. And while, yes, Christians, Muslims, and Jews can pick and choose what they follow, but in the case of Muslims, clearly you have to see the threat. If you don’t recognize the potential, or hear how they demonize atheists, I really can’t help you. You can allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security by some of them that pretend to be better, but I won’t.

Violent anarchists are Libertarians, whom literally state their mission is to remove all government limitations at all costs.

How Libertarians avoid the anarchist label is beyond me. They’re like weird corporate anarchists, compared to the actual anarchy movement.

Progressives are people who value the freedom of religion for all people, the freedom to be who you truly are, even if that’s the opposite gender you were born as, and the advancement of human rights on topics concerning body autonomy and well anything humans rights related. We also tend to firmly believe in addressing income inequality, poverty, availability of medical benefits to everyone as a human right, and an end to monopolies and corporate malfeasance.

I think a lot of conservatives try to paint Progressives as anarchists because we riot. But they ignore the literal mission statements of the right wing which is that smaller government is better and that people should run their lives completely freely. THAT is anarchy my friend. And what that gets us is a dying planet full of pollution with infinitely rising cost of living and slavery to corporations, and we’re dangerously close to that now. You’d better hope like hell Progressives win this fight, because everything you enjoy, everything that’s good in your life, is a result of Progressive policy. Or are you actually going to sit here and argue policies like Reaganomics are a good thing despite almost 60 years of data to the contrary?

After what I went through at the hands of my ultra religious parents, at the hands of the Catholic church I went to, and finally at the hands of the conversion therapy religious camp I was imprisoned in, I can tell you right now I have absolutely zero capacity for any compassion for any believer what so ever.

If I could press a button and kill them all I’d do it in a heartbeat. No believer deserves even the tiniest iota of your sympathy or compassion. I promise you one atheist to another, they feel the same way about you.

How does that track?

Those kids have zero chance of growing up as anything other than the religion they’re raised in under even normal circumstances.

The one good thing out of all of this, is at the end of the day there’s that many less believers in the world.

Ideally we wouldn’t sacrifice our ideals of freedom for money. This is America though and we’re all capitalist whores first and foremost though.

You’re talking about Gaza or Tel Aviv? I’ve been to Gaza man, 95% of them didn’t have clean water in 2014 and that number didn’t change up until today. Gaza itself was a hellhole.

The resorts and stuff you see are on Jewish territory. They’ve destroyed anything nice Palestinians have.

I’m not even going to do you the dignity of reading this.

They chose for religious reasons to slowly invade and genocide a people in an area that was extremely hostile to them.

Historically Jewish people have been given land in Spain and Italy to found their own nation. Both times they sold it and invaded Israel in history.

I have zero sympathy for them, because historically, they’ve been the invading aggressors to the region because they feel they have some sort of religious right to it, and since I’m anti-theist and believe religion is the root of all evil seeing both sides die in this conflict is kind of desirable to me.

Then feel free to fuck off.

You came in here and started this saying it’s basically my fault I had a bad time with Fedora. Your condescending and pretentious attitude has been noted, but I’m a new user to Linux my man. None of this is familiar. As my day 2 and 3 posts show I can actually troubleshoot and fix things, if I couldn’t figure it out, I’d say it’s indicative of production and deployment issues on the developers end.

But please feel free to not respond, you’re exactly the kind of Linux user that gives the community it’s negative stigma.

…you mean at the military checkpoints where Palestinians routinely disappear? How about the fact that Israel conducts human medical experiments on prisoners. Or the systematic rape of Palestinian women. How about the systematic attacks on Palestinian infrastructure that leaves 95% of Gaza without access to clean water. And that was before this current mess.

Grow the fuck up and open your eyes. Israelis are straight up evil.

…there’s a faq on the router itself that told me how to do it in windows. That was show I got on the right path for Linux. So yes definitely easier when the manufacturer includes instructions for one but not the other. Granted the windows process is significantly easier to get it enabled.
