Because selfish vibes driven by greed and fear come easy when education is lacking.

You underestimate how sensitive the working class is to anything involving removal of capitalism. The red scare never really ended.

I second the syncthing method, it also works great for a private password manager like keepassxc or keepassdx depending if youre on a computer or phone!

if you are looking for an Foss alternative for obsidian, check out logseq. it isn’t a 1 for 1 copy of obsidian and its feature set, but the way I use them they are identical, besides the source code availability!

Not OP, but to me the first season kind of hurt to watch. Super poor pacing, bad acting, lack of connection to the characters. The second season picked up a bit and was at least somewhat entertaining because Sauron put on a great performance and carried every scene he was in, but thats just my two cents.

Fl does work with wine, I have used versions of it in the past quite flawlessly. There is an easy one click installer in the bottles interface for FL, give it a try!

EDIT: I say prior versions because I have since switched to bitwig, such a cool process flow!

They added native tiling a while back! I am running debian 12 with plasma 5.27 and it is super comfortable.

Tiling is built into plasma after late versions of 5. You can hit super+T to change default layout, shift+drag window to snap to layout, and set custom keybinds for keybord navigation. There might be default settings but I set mine to mimic i3 of the bat so I couldnt tell you what they are…

Plasma has such a good tiling window manager now as well, with one of the most low resource draw frameworks powering it. But it isn’t cool and hip I guess!

At mine it was not. Hotspots and the like that stayed up for too long were flagged and action was taken to have them disabled and the student reprimanded.

Nope! Plasma has a nice settings page dedicated to to this power related configuration, so you click exactly what you want to happen and forget about it. I configured plasma to work almost identically to gnome with the overview and gestures and it is so snappy. Still hope that the gnome devs work out a way to make these options more accessible, but even if they added those there’s no way I’d switch back now!

It may seem silly but I switched to KDE plasma becaus of this feature. In my humble opinion as a sysadmin, a modern desktop PC in 2024 should not need the user to query config values for power settings!

Home depot and Lowes both let you make purchases as a guest without an account. I have done it recently at least.

Isn’t this just freecad?

90s Volvos are great! S70 over here.

Until some open standards are made for car computerization, it will continue to be used as a tool to keep you as a consumer dependent on the company’s good will and certified technicians. It is so much easier to lock a silly little consumer out of a digital system with closed source and obfuscation than a mechanical one, if both systems have a way to be serviced. When this status quo changes, I will finally give up my old 20+ year old cars. As of now, they are reliable as long as I keep up with their routine maintenance, and they dont track me, monitor me, or lock me out when i need to get something changed or modified. - gen Z system admin

I ended up figuring out how to do mine myself with a Mr Cool kit when the furnace died due to the fact that every hvac guy believed a 4th gen heat pump would be useless in the northeast us. It gets down to about 0F here once or twice a winter and the heat pump starts struggling to keep up around those temps but it still does its job.

Unfortunate. My wife has an inspiron 7000 gaming laptop that I bought for school in 2016… it has survived a repair to the screen due to being ran hard and dropped often, but it is still a powerhouse and keeps up with any task thrown at it with Fedora Kinoite. The keyboard stopped lighting up a few years back but other than that it shows no sign of stopping.

I still have the refreshed second gen version running, got an android 12 rom flashed and now it is being used with an amcrest camera as a privacy friendly nanny cam monitor!
