This. (although I follow the directions here, which is a little more than apt install). The only thing I couldn’t get on Debian stable is the latest gnome. But when I tried debian testing, it was slightly broken anyway. And gnome extensions could get most of the functionality missing in my older gnome version. Debian stable + flatpak + anaconda + adding repositories (like for firefox) is a perfect compromise.
What’s nice about a stable distro is you can update the things you want to update, and your OS isn’t constantly changing a million packages a week that you don’t even know the function of.
Are there seriously no lemmy users on a Mac? Lol.
I use Debian.
Gotta wonder how many state actors have been using it for years.
An anarchist would take off the capitalist mask to reveal hierarchy
Oh right, sometimes I forget people have computers other than old thinkpads
IDK if thats true in 2024. Debian 12 isn’t much harder to setup than mint or Ubuntu, and the version of gnome it ships with is perfectly fine. I’m not a beginner anymore, so maybe there’s something I glossed over.
Oh wait, I just remembered the thing I glossed over. Needing to install sudo would definitely throw a beginner for a loop. (Iirc, you only need to do that if you give a root password during install). And that’s the problem with trying to learn Linux. Someone will tell you the thing is easy, but they forgot about some arcane step
Pipepipe is pretty good on F-droid, although Idk how it compares
Open camera is the best
Idk if it can be called a smartwatch, but I just found out about the sensor watch, and now I really want one. Basically a hackable Casio f-91w
I think you mean like Peru and Chile told Bolivia,
I’m surprised they didn’t also mention the climate of fear and distrust around Chinese academics in the US. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/wrongfully-accused-spying-china-professor-wins-appeal-sue-government-rcna86109
Every warmonger to ever exist:
Naturally war is bad, but
That’s like 1-2 urban highway interchanges
Look at the article, though. IMO it looks like HHS was trying to keep quiet, navigating political pressure and recent research. It’s the NYT that decided to box the administration into this very public position. It’s effective Advocacy journalism for terfs
War bad (Unironically)
They weren’t even in trouble here! It’s just the NYT spreading fear, uncertainty and doubt about one of the only openly trans US officials.
Not that it even matters, since SCOTUS gets the final say in all administrative matters now.
Because of propaganda, people find it easier to imagine the end of the world before the end of capitalism. Just the same, theres lots of commenters here that could imagine the end of the internet before they imagine the end of advertising on the internet.
