In my experience I’ve noticed Linux tends to (disproportionately) attract both libertarians and socialists/communists. I feel like I run into more of both within the Linux community than I do in other communities.
I started using Linux because I couldn’t force myself to use Windows 8. Up to that point I used whatever version of Windows came right before the graphical interface but 8 was too awful so I started playing with mint and never went back…
I got off the capitalism train in the middle of that but that was only because I decided to major in business and when I saw how the sausage was made I jumped ship but I didn’t know anything about socialism or communism or marxism or whatever you want to call it. I was so not into politics or economics that I literally had to search the Internet and ask people on social media what was an alternative to the crap I was reading for my classes… And then I went down that rabbit hole. If was enlightening. I learned a lot.
Also… for people who think college is Marxist indoctrination…Marx was brought up for one paragraph in one book at the very very end of my 4 years. But by that point I already knew who he was just from the rabbit hole I went down when I was curious for some alternative to what I was being taught.
I’m on Lemmy.world & using the eternity app I haven’t had any real issues yet but it’s only been about 2 months for me since I started using this platform.
For me it’s this (the color coded notification LED on phones) and while on the topic of phones I used to have a xiaomi phone several years ago that had an infrared face unlock feature so you could use face unlock in complete darkness. Haven’t had a phone with that before or after. It was awesome.
Yes definitely look into docker. It’s a very cool piece of software. If you can find a tutorial for what you want to run try that as it can be a bit confusing if you never used docker before
Just Linux for me…I haven’t used windows since windows 7. I’m probably going to sell my steam deck though because it mostly just sits in the case on top of my computer (where I usually play since my computer is plugged into my 50 inch bedroom TV. But the stream deck is nice and fun to play with.
By not caring who wins you already seem to understand this sick game of three card monte they keep playing on Americans every 2 to 4 years. Good on you for not playing along.
I don’t think it matters all that much if trump/republicans win or if Biden/democrats win.
I feel like I’ve seen enough elections in my life to know that the POTUS is largely just a human sock puppet for the peasants to fight over online and in the street.
No matter which corporate owned tool wins the gameplan stays the same.
Impoverish you. Obey the donors. Sanctions + bombs. Tax cuts. Turn their pockets inside out when it comes to anything poor/working class people need. I could go on but I think you get the point.
The slow suicidal summersault into ww3 shall continue. Buckle up.
You’re right. I was just referring to items where the generic version did but the name brand version didn’t.
There would be another president & the west wouldn’t be happy with that one either
Hard to say. Gotta check the labels because I’ve noticed a lot of the store brand items (especially at Walmart) have known carcinogens in the ingredients.
Idk what client you’re using but I’m using eternity on android. It let’s you select all the text from any post/comment.
Many others commented that their clients allow it as well. Maybe consider trying some new ones out?
I think the US would be better off to finally have a president who is one of them. Meaning not rich or famous. Just a regular working class person who isn’t well connected.
Seems like every president is rich, well connected, famous or totally bought off and they all end up running the country basically the same way. The only thing that ever changes is the surface level Idpol/who they pander to.
