Gentoo was mentioned more actually.

I’ve worked with a bunch of hardcore Linux users in my career, some of whom even knew about Lemmy. Not one of them have ever worn striped socks though.

RTX 3080 owner here. I get a black screen whenever I try to play a game after the desktop goes to sleep in Linux Mint. The only workaround is to restart the PC and play it before its screensaver comes on. The struggle is real.

Wish they could post a security camera image of the racist couple who did this. Make them infamous dammit.

Too bad B&J’s can’t decouple from Unilever.

Currently suffering through the pain of a programmer leaving a year ago and seemingly no one inherited his knowledge of the stuff he was working on for one of my projects. It was also the fault of other departments for delaying my work for even longer but they don’t care. It’s agony having to ask around the office for someone who might actually have the info I need.

This might be the cover the Orange Julius Caesar needs to argue in favor of taking down the post office for privatization.

Too late. He was already immortal.

He’s a rich evil man. He’ll probably live to be a hundred. I only hope the shock of a leopard eating his face will still his icy heart for good.

Tesla must go down. So long as Musk’s wealth is tied to the company his influence will persist.

Thanks for this curated news update! It almost feels like reading segments from a gaming magazine.

To be fair insurance providers shirk obligations to pay for your treatment anyway. It’s why Luigi is so damn popular.

Never ever forget who those people were. They were okay with Trump’s racism, the saber rattling, the promises of tyranny, the misinformation, his chaos, his love of Putin, the weird relationship with Elon Musk, Project 2025, the kleptocracy, the nepotism, the bullying, and even his promises of tariffs. Now that the American markets are crashing and the world hates the US she finally drew the line. She’ll always be a piece of shit and will embrace the next conservative who talks like a dumbass at her level, so long as they don’t go too mask-off I guess.

IIRC Sriracha had an exclusive provider for their peppers as they provided a unique taste to it. The company then decided to demand lower prices from the farmers causing them to have a falling out. The sauce was unavailable for a long while and when it was brought back it no longer tasted the same, at least IMO. I still eat it occasionally but not as much as before.

The orange buffoon doesn’t see the US isn’t the only trading partner Canada and Mexico have. They’ve obviously prepared for this ever since he tried doing it during his last presidency. Maybe the pain he inflicted on average Americans will finally make them start mobilizing against him in even bigger protests.

International relations standpoint aside, she offered no benefits or relief to the economic woes of the working class other than telling them to suck it up because everything’s fine. She ignored progressives in a pathetic attempt at currying favor with the likes of Liz fucking Cheney because she thinks conservatives would actually pick a Democrat over literally any Republican candidate. Everything about her screamed corporatism, the status quo of deadlocked improvements in Congress, and a lack of willingness to meaningfully change things for the better.

She is the quintessential establishment Democrat who would rather campaign for fundraisers than actually act on meaningful legislation. Despite all these (and many more) flaws, I voted for her as she was the only meaningful opposition the DNC could regurgitate out because Biden was too proud to stop his reelection campaign early on. For California governor, I’d want an actual progressive with the intent to make things better over her any day.

I want someone who doesn’t seek approval from conservatives. She can fuck off and collect speakers fees for the rest of her life for all I care.

I think the Northwest Passage being referred is the Elizabeth Islands which is a geographical choke point not unlike the Strait of Malacca. If the Arctic sea ice fully melts then it’ll be a very important location to control traffic going to and from the Eastern Seaboard. The only way around coming from Russia is to go East of Greenland. Trump wants Canada and Greenland to act as a shield against Russia and to a lesser extent, China.

I’m sure repeatedly shocking the market with surprise tariffs will be good for the overall health of the economy… Right? Surely the market will bounce back every time tariffs are lifted?

Societies being run by brains in a jar still sounds better than our current system.
