No, we can’t, that’s literally what Union busting is - intentionally adding as much friction as possible to people agreeing on that very thing. Perhaps we would if we could but powerful forces work such that we can’t, even if it could be argued we ought be allowed.

FFS.

Counterpoint - if we were on .ML these people would be blocked - they’re exercising their freedom.

We’re not on Reddit, Facebook, or X and you’ll find whole communities of haters for those sites, too.

Believe it or not, negativity tends to spread further than positivity in general as we are a risk-averse species, and it’s one of the documented harms of social media in general. You’re probably gonna find some version of this style of bitching no matter where ya go, it’s a human thing.

No, many people know this; but there are virgin minds born every day. Consider XKCD’s classic Ten Thousand. Part of the vigilance means doing the documentation, and on a social media platform, that means periodic updates as content. Few people take up arms on a fight that nobody can see.

This person is doing good work 😋, even if the conclusion is unsurprising.

I’m worried we’ll start a war with them and we’ll be put down, blasted by tranquilizers.

My Visio TV developed a thing where the OSD menus freeze up and the controls unresponsive frequently - it’s not connected to WiFi. Its my opinion that some internal drive is filled up with my watch data that a factory reset cannot fix, and I suspect the lack of disk space is why it’s freezing. I can’t* prove this, but I suspect it to be.

*I might possibly have the skills to, but my time is devoted to other tasks, and I don’t want to deprive my household of the living room TV just because I want to tear it apart.

Pirates of the Caribbean. The plot, characters, actors, and effects are fine enough. Specifically the plot is bland; it’s deliberately a hodgepodge of everything piratey tossed into a blender. Johnny Depp’s performance is excellent, but more because it feels the script was shaped around his eccentric dude persona rather than them stretching their skills. None of this makes the film bad just mediocre.

… but the score is a masterpiece. Instantly iconic, filled with layered motifs, carries the sense of adventure and perfectly shapes the mood of each scene. Both catchy enough to become an earworm, but orchestral and textured enough that it’s not unwelcome as one.

You are welcome to that opinion. Welcome to Lemmy! I see your account is a day old and has two comments and both are about what you don’t like.

I’d love you to enjoy your time in this social experiment, so let’s shift: what are your favorite things? I personally think that there’s more community value to everyone in finding what we share.

They make a nice server rack, for what it’s worth

As always, the actual story is in the comments. Thank you for the summary.

You’re thinking villager. A villain is a dried seed pod, used as a spice.

It’s can be fun to plumb the limits of computing and Arch’s gimmick is living entirely on the bleeding edge of computing - it’s where all the exciting issues are being actively identified and worked on. However, if you’re not into tinkering, I agree - Arch is ‘C tier’ for average users - specifically because of the dangers of playing in deep waters. As an enthusiast myself, I have Arch on my daily driver, but only because I have a NAS, home server, backup strategy, and other Linux machines running Debian, Fedora, and SteamOS at the ready in case I hit one of Arch’s infamous ‘Bad Days’.

One difference: the horse vehicle may run off to the fjords, the truck vehicle may run off to the Ford’s.

Or posting on-time, yet being too short, or too detailed; Play it cool, but speak fire… keep it light, yet deep.

Propaganda?

Right?‽ the logic of this is just so messed up on both ends

Bought one yet it arrived red and tasted sweet. When I asked why they sent me something that looks and tastes like an apple, they said it must have been a lemon.

This is the part I don’t understand. Mobile data would work in your houses too, right?

Actually, first - ironically mobile coverage is terrible right at my new home since I moved. Great about 200 yards from home and most everywhere I go, but there’s a weird blind spot at my address specifically.

Second, Most mobile data plans are 30-80 Mbps†, most home WiFi plans are 300 Mbps-1Gbps†. WiFi isn’t just faster, it’s a lot faster. † your milage may vary, these are based on my experience

Finally, again this is another case of maybe I’m weird, but my friends and I are into retro gaming, and self-hosting and both of those have LAN-specific options that only work within the WiFi and home network.
