No, no. It’s different because the stones humans use are rare. Right?

… Right?

Valve literally released hardware and said “hey, competitors, feel free to add your own stores and even OS”. None of their competitors even bothered to try.

Valve doesn’t need to resort to underhanded tactics to secure their monopoly like other monopolies. They just know that they provide a good service.

Lift up your mouse. What is an LED but a spicy candle?

I found Hades hard to beat. Yes, there’s meta progression and item combos that make it easier, but the game requires a level of mechanical skill to beat.

Don’t feel discouraged; focus on how you’re improving as you feel more comfortable with your movement.

Anyone interested, there’s a colony sim game named Timberborn where you play as beavers. Unsurprisingly, this comic gets posted there every few weeks. :P

I’ve been to a few pride marches, and yeah it’s full of pride flags, people waving signs with clever slogans and loudly complaining about the government.

Would recommend going to one if you feel safe enough.

I was going to point out that comics like that should already be covered by the rules against discrimination… But reading the sidebar it doesn’t look like we have rules like that. We have a full paragraph detailing how an exposed nipple should be tagged, but nothing saying “hey, don’t be a homophobic sexist bigot”. Probably worth adding something to the rules like:

Discrimination such as homophobia, transphobia, sexism and racism are not welcome here. This applies both in comments and posted comics. Likewise, artists who have a large history of posting discriminatory content such as Stonetoss and Jago are similarly not allowed here.

Nazi bars form by exploiting moderators who are too afraid to say no and actively kick out a culture of hate.

I have no interest in watching quarter of an hour of clickbait nonsense, what’s the tldr besides the licencing non-issue?

This is a distro that received crap because of the transition to snaps and the whole Amazon shopping lens thing. There’s pretty stiff competition for “worst release”.

I’d recommend using an atomic distro. Then if you get shot to pieces you can roll back to a good state.

I’d certainly feel primal if I was hiking and got a splinter in my feet.

You need to watch out for hallucinations - you need to use brown glass rather than clear glass.

They aren’t available as regular boot options, so you need to use timeshift itself to switch to them. It provides a cli though so it can be used in cases where you’ve broken your x server.

I can hear the laugh track in the last panel.

I’m not sure if it’s treating “localhost” as a hostname or not, but does replacing it with 127.0.0.1 function as expected?

Even then, it’s possible that there may be small embedded circuits inside the camera with the sole purpose of constantly recording and sending that data who knows where.

You know, if you want to go full tinfoil hat.

Not paying open source devs or firefighters is taking advantage of their enthusiasm.

I’m no elevatorologist so soneone can correct me, but don’t elevators need a lot of surrounding machinery in order to operate? Like, there needs to be weights and pulleys and all that. I image there would not be enough room for both that and the stairs.

I don’t know how available it is for other distros, but Mint has a gui tool called Timeshift that allows you to take and restore snapshots.

Snapshots seem an ideal tool for the job. It won’t replace a full backup system, but as long as the cost of failure (such as you mistyping a command and nuking the disk’s partition data or something) is only a few hours of OS reconfiguration rather than losing priceless family photos, it should work.

I use btrfs snapshots on my system. When I’m about to do something “risky” (e.g. trying out kde or cosmic) I take a snapshot beforehand. Then when I want to go back, I just restore the snapshot and reboot.

For /home, there won’t be a lot of OS configuration there, and if it’s a burner machine you probably won’t have much personalisation done on it. However, if you want to backup configuration there, look into a dotfile manager.

I usually have Nutella in my Nutella jars, but you do you.
