Ah, a fellow bread bro


Do you have kids? “Because I said so” doesn’t usually come out of nowhere. It’s a response of frustration, usually because that conversation has been had multiple times already.
Because they want corporations to do their job for them of holding the government accountable.


Yeah but all the other people drove off


What am I missing? As far as I can tell this is a great example of several groups of people successfully outrunning a fire.


Russia can’t even handle Ukraine. What are they going to do against the rest of NATO, even without the US?

From behind? How many elbows do you have?


I’m not an expert but I have a decent set up going. If you think it would be helpful shoot me a DM and I’ll find a way to show you what I’ve got set up and give any tips I can. It sounds like I started in a similar position to you and I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned so far.
Edit: anyone else reading this is welcome to do the same.


Fake and gay. There’s no sun
You can’t solve the problem on your own and that’s the point. Instead of just driving past those protesters go join them. Invite others to go with you. Start a new organization of some kind in your community or volunteer with an existing one. Do whatever is in your power to do.
Victory over fascism is not something that can be bought from Amazon. It requires active participation. The action is less important than the participation. Just pick something and do that until you find something better.
I am a night owl that stays up past midnight almost every night and I eat dinner at 5:30 on a regular basis.
Does that make a stoner a baked potato?
I’ll see myself out.
Sure, but my point was that someone new to Linux can only answer that question with “what the fuck are those”
I appreciate the effort put into this but if answering yes to “are you new to Linux?” leads to the follow up question “apt or rpm?” then there’s a problem.
I tend to think that any conclusion that could be reasonably summarized as “I (or a group I belong to) am smart and everyone else is stupid” is not an opinion rooted in objectivity and is therefore very likely to be heavily biased.


Yeah paid software babies users, often to the point of being annoying. FOSS assumes you can troubleshoot complex issues effectively. There’s a happy medium somewhere in there but like you said, it’s tough to get there with a limited volunteer dev team.


In my experience most of them are pretty easy to set up with basic computer skills and a look at the documentation. There are two big problems with that though.
Basic computer skills aren’t as common as you would think.
FOSS documentation isn’t written for people without those skills.
That leads to a lot of issues that aren’t terribly complicated to solve but would be showstoppers for regular users. I would not consider myself a high level user but I’ve managed to get quite a few applications up and running with nothing but time and a willingness to be frustrated. The few people I’ve gone into details with about those applications had no clue what I was talking about. Mostly because they would never tolerate the frustration required to get past the initial setup and have therefore never learned how to do any of it.
You don’t ask about salary? I hope that means you had that discussion before the interview and not that you’re just hoping it’s worth your time
