“The world is already destroyed by a nuclear holocaust, we did it, boys!”



Yeah, I know, I know, also people who are not tech savvy, you change the smallest thing to their GUI and they get lost, you need to do some training stuff.


I agree there are cases where you need specific software and in that cases it might be hard, but also there are a shit ton of other cases where everything you need is simply a word processor and spreadsheet.


I know you can pirate it, I doubt a government will decide to launch a national scale campaign to pirate every machine with Windows, it would probably be easier to install Linux any way since you have a lot of older machines.


How is the government going to handle the use of public computers if Microsoft is getting out of Russia? I mean, I’m sure they already have a lot of pirated copies and old versions of Windows, as any (at least third world) country does, but at some point I don’t see any option to either pirate every copy of Windows or start using Linux.

Honestly the reason why we get so many children is because there’s poor sexual education and free contraceptives, plus abortion not being legal and also massive propaganda since centuries ago by the church to make people reproduce like rabbits.


If they’re Usonians they’re probably guilty of at least 5 crimes against humanity.




Adding upper case letters to addresses would indeed increase what the “_” does, I don’t think we should add them. Your method also requires manual intervention which is just not a good idea.



The US Authoritarian Regime Bans ‘Fight Club’ Book in Various States

The author also said that he saw the irony in many Americans’ angry response to China’s actions, given that his books are banned in many locations across the U.S.

“What I find really interesting is that my books are heavily banned throughout the U.S.,” he said. “The Texas prison system refuses to carry my books in their libraries. A lot of public schools and most private schools refuse to carry my books. But it’s only an issue once China changes the end of a movie? I’ve been putting up with book banning for a long time.”


If we would follow that line of thought this community would be filled with Usonian shit, world news need to be something involving the world, various countries or something like that, not something that happens in the world because everything can happen in the world.




If you don’t improve material conditions is all theater, though.


While I totally I agree with you this community is not for this kind of stuff, /c/announcements is for Lemmy announcements, read the sidebar please.


I think having more admins from more time zones is the best solution, then e-mail verification and then having to fill out a form because it takes time to be reviewed and it takes more time from me because i have to write shit and anyway i can lie.


It’s all thanks to 4chan and their raids, God bless them. 🙏

It would be nice to modify the front end so that it looks better for that.



Low Disk Space on "boot"
So I've been trying to update/upgrade my system/applications for the last few days and it has been erroring, I ignored it and now when I try to `sudo apt upgrade` it tells me that I have "Low Disk Space on "boot" The volume "boot" has only 0 bytes disk space remaining."

Anyone else thinks that "_" in community addresses should be gone?
In my opinion the only good thing it does is to create copies of already existing communities, so basically people tend to follow one community or the other and it divides the people who could be active. If you want to create a community that's similar to one and for some reason you don't want to be a part of it, find another name, if you can't find another name, create your own instance. So if Lemmy is federating now we could have /c/worldnews, /c/world_news, and the same applies to every other instance that decides to do the same. In my opinion this only segregates people. The same applies to uppercase letters, which Reddit uses but luckily Lemmy does not, imagine how many copies of a community could be created if you use both.

Have you heard of it? Do you know anything about how they handle encryption and if it's any good?

Best looking and most minimalist text editor?
So I've been trying to find a text editor that's blazing fast with as little features as possible that doesn't look like it was designed in the '90s. I would like something that when I click on my files it opens almost instantly and only displays text in a notepad without any buttons tools, or just the bare minimum (like create a new file or something like that). I want this to read .txt files and that's it, if I'm working on a writing I'd use LibreOffice and if I'm writing some code I'd use Atom.

Can we have a rule that prevents using the word "American/s" to refer to Usonians?
I understand some people may not even realize it's a word that puts yankees before all the rest of America, or that English didn't have a better word like Spanish (Estadounidense) and other languages do, but I feel that since this is a pretty big community and one where the word will be out there a lot could be an opportunity to help spread a better word that does not minimizes a lot of oppressed people.

Puzzle ELO on Lichess
Is there a havy puzzle doer over here? How does puzzle ELO compare to other categories in Lichess in your opinion? Because I suck at chess but I'm kinda good at puzzles. For example, I am 1900 on puzzle but 1100 on rapid and 900 on blitz.
