At least with dems nothing changes

the problem with “nothing changes” is that it in fact, does change. wages have stagnated for decades and the cost of living keeps rising, and dems won’t vote to increase minimum wage. meaning dems are actively making things worse for people by doing nothing. dems could have enshrined abortoin rights in law, they did nothing and now those rights are lost to a portion of the nation, with plans by republicans to make that nationwide.

I could keep going like this for hours, talking about all the things dems have made worse with their “nothing changes” policy, but I think we all get the idea. nothing changes is nothing more than a policy of slowly making things worse.

You know you got a true friend when they give you one of their kidneys.

I assume it would be very fast and painless if it just comes charging in.

Even if it comes in very fast, you’re still talking about many months of forewarning, perhaps even many hundreds of years if it was a “normal” star instead of something like a brown dwarf.

And Microsoft is shutting out most third parties in the near future because of Crowdstrike, so Linux likely won’t be supporting Secure Boot in the future, even if someone did want to enable it for some odd reason.

As I said, I really hope not. Doesn’t really matter what hypothetical situation you talk about, if it involves another star being in or close to our solar system, it’s gonna end badly for us.

that’s maybe $200k if it’s covered in gold, but if that’s an actual gold bar, then it’s worth a couple million or so.

And I really hope it stays that way, at least until it’s not my problem to worry about anymore.

The great thing about GOG is you don’t need the launcher, you can use a third party launcher like Heroic or just download the installers directly from the GOG website once you log in.

In this case, it’s Australian conservative Christian bullshit, but no doubt they have many supporters in the US as well, since this is every Evangelicals wet dream.

Religion needs to fuck right off and stop harassing people.

For touchscreens, Gnome is great, I dunno how well it would work, but I wouldn’t be sad to see someone try to make an actual fully featured Android UI replacement out of it.

wait a minute… did you join my mastodon just to scrape memes for your meme comm? you leftist scum

Somebody is gonna put Gnome on an Android, I can feel it.
