follow me on OF? pls?pls?
Google wants the internet simplified so they can get it under their control, what else is new? I started learning web design a few years back and this is the kind of shit that makes me suicidal. There’s almost no point when they have such a huge monopoly in the space.
You need drivers for your external USB most likely. Unfortunately, a lot of brands only support microsoft’s malware of a OS and use unnecessary proprietary firmware…
Yes, yes yes! The world needs more femboy dads. That said this happened the other way around for me. Just goes to show how much overlap there is among fringe internet cultures- I really wish we could all play nice more often.
Well chickpeas are underrated asf for one, fry em with oil and add a little salt and it’s like vegan bacon… Well, vegan bacon spheres. Hummus is a chickpea dip that is to die for, flavor-wise and it’s really easy to make fresh + keeps for weeks. Highly recommend mushrooms and nuts too for when you need something a little heartier.
Mindless optimism isn’t the answer either. We need real change immediately, the window to slam on the brakes as a species is already behind us arguably. The only answer is to be both realistic AND ambitious.
Follow my OF so this stoner can get hers framed? I’ve wanted to put it up right behind the bongs forever
Anticheat software, sure that’s what it is. Totally not a excuse to steal total control of a player’s machine, nope not here
Self own.
@invaderDJ @Porous_gray_matter. SBCs and their recent popularity show there IS a demand, as well as the existence of the pinephone period. I’m not convinced either. The government, -especially the USA’s undeniably has a vested interest in keeping versatile, powerful technology out of reach for most.
You’re mistaken. Imperialism is capitalism, my friend. War is just easy profit to some. Regardless, tech companies LOVE to work with the state to design products; most motherboards do have backdoors used by the likes of the NSA. So I think there’s a fair case to be made for it being more of a don’t-piss-off-the-government decision rather than scarcity of parts or demand.
Okay but I’m absolutely serious and I bet a lot of the upvotes on that ARE unironic. There is a market for chunky, powerful portable devices -few manufacturers seem to want to cater to that type of customer however, probably because of a worldwide capitalism hegemony that exists to make you as placated and dumb as possible rather than empower you as a individual or something
I want a fucking headphone jack, thanks. Also 3 full size USB ports, a physical keyboard and a inch-thick battery, because fuck you.
Love to hear it! Hope that does what you need it to for a long time! being a commercial product (kinda, system76 mostly makes money off hardware with it iirc) there should be great support and I’m pretty sure it has its own forum too like many other distros. Good luck!
Well I only suggest it for sites one has to use, and even then I think it would still show google people are fed up with their shit
*especially! Spoof user agent if you have to.
Switch it up. even just tortilla chips and hummus or salsa too with plenty of water and you might even survive! Nuts are great too. Dense calories and nutrients, underrated.
If you don’t like it there are always other options (if you like a lot about arch, Garuda or Manjaro would be my next suggestion) but I do think Pop is great for those adjusting to the new ecosystem from windows
You absolutely should, sounds perfect for your use case. It’s meant for gaming PCs, and as you’re starting out don’t be afraid to take advantage of the several different package managers out there (I think pop has one built-in but there are others like snap). Finding and installing programs via command line isn’t as hard as you might think either and is usually more secure/ideal. If you need something more cutting edge and are willing to dive into stuff like that I’ve had great experiences with garuda and manjaro too. There are lots of FAQ’s out there, and it can be really daunting at first but I promise it’ll be rewarding somehow. I personally love all the different free software repositories and having apps like fortune run when I start my machine- there’s something so cozy about configuring a PC to be a little fun and reflect your own personality a bit.
Nah RIP Craigslist personals, it was one of the only safeish places to advertise sex work -imo these services should be state-or-community-funded, free AND respecting of privacy, ideally. Maybe it did need more moderation; but even more so it needed less outrage about the useful connections and exchanges of services it enabled. We should always mourn the old web, sure it was flawed like anything else 20 years ago but it was still faaaaaaar better than the google-ravaged wasteland of today.
