    You’re allowed to say whatever you want. I just don’t get why everyone on this platform is so insecure about downvotes. This isn’t the first time downvoters get insulted. Hell, maybe the downvoter agrees with you, they just thought the post didn’t fit the community for whatever reason. But even if they disagreed, does that make them an idiot? Because they aren’t on your side and you have the moral high ground, then they are an idiot?



  • Of course you don’t operate the kernel, but the kernel operates the system.

    My point is that there are many layers between the kernel and user and which you interact with depends on the person. The only common point between all these, at least for linux, is the linux kernel itself.

    I get that the “axchually GNU/linux” is just a joke, but considering how much impact linux has versus GNU, it’s totally fine to omit it. You can totally just use busybox instead and you’re still using a Linux OS.


  • Then where do you draw the line?

    The vast majority of people also don’t interact with the GNU tools at all, so GNU/Linux isn’t the OS either. KDE would be, or perhaps the distro itself. I’m not sure I’d call the OS GNU/Linux/Ubuntu/KDE. At that point might as well throw in firefox, for many it’s pretty much all the interaction they have with the computer.

    Or what about the distros that don’t use the GNU coreutils? They are generally still called linux and still get to run apps made for linux, even with no traces of GNU.

    This is a bit of an extreme view. Most conservatives do have empathy, though they will prioritize their closed ones with it.

    The problem with this specific scenario with the tarrifs is just people being misinformed and buying everything the party tells them, but I wouldn’t blame it on lack of empathy. If they’d actually known what the repercussions would be, I don’t think most of them would have voted for trump.




  • And so, instead of asking yourself questions, you straight up jump to the conclusion you want to hear. This is what I’m criticizing here, and you’re far from the only one acting that way.

    Here’s a translated part of the local conservative party’s website:

    spoiler

    The Conservative Party of Quebec, for its part, supports improving care for vulnerable patients, but by offering solutions that do not come at the expense of other Quebecers:

      Ensure that patients with serious illnesses who are waiting are given priority in getting a family doctor, without depriving other patients of their current services.
    
      Increase the number of doctors by raising admissions to medical programs and more quickly recognizing foreign diplomas.
    
      Decentralize hospital management by incorporating contributions from the private sector to tailor measures to the specific needs of each institution.
    

    Moreover, the Conservative Party is proposing a modernization of the healthcare system based on the experiences of the world’s most developed and high-performing countries, particularly Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Recently, the PCQ presented a study based on the experiences and results achieved by these European countries in healthcare, which confirms the importance of increasing the number of healthcare professionals and adding private services to the public hospital system.

    Now I am by no means saying this is the best way to do it, or that they are actively working on it, but to say they aren’t trying to fix it is just a lie. You didn’t even bother researching it, you immediately assumed the answer you wanted to hear was the correct one.





  • Lemmy being black or white like always. You can be a leftist, vote for the left and still recognize the flaws in your own parties and the good ideologies in the other…

    I swear, the left usually calls itself open-minded, but as soon as someone on the right comes around, instead of trying to convince them with arguments, they are being called straight up evil russian bots. So what do they do, they go back to truth social, where they are well treated, and keep voting conservative.

    By far the best option. Putting them in bags takes forever, though they can then be reused for compost and the likes.

    Not sure what the other commenter is talking about though. Unless they have like a single tree or something, I fail to see how the grass wouldn’t rot. There’s always this one guy in town who doesn’t clean it up and it smells awful down the street.
