I always love the responses to these videos because it’s invariably a bunch of skilled Linux people showing their entire ass trying to justify why the average user would somehow have had a magically better experience and the OP is uniquely bad at computers. Get fucking real. Sit down, shut up, and take notes. It’s never going to be the year of the Linux desktop if you ignore the issues encountered by new Linux users.

Scaling up fabs to increase supply is a very long-term process. You don’t want to do it if you think the demand won’t last at least several years. Maybe RAM manufacturers are drinking the koolaid and are spinning up fabs as fast as possible. Maybe they see the writing on the wall and are just cashing in until the demand dissolves.

2·2 months agoWish there was into on how to pirate adobe for Linux. Even into for Windows is hard to find (for obvious reasons) when you’re someone like me who doesn’t know where to look.
This is not an invitation to tell me how and get banned lol

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Why is Mamdani not banning the sale of stolen Palestinian land in New York?
8·2 months agoThat’s why OP specified “participating in genocide.” That’s how language works. They didn’t say “protesting against synagogues” they said “protesting against synagogues participating in genocide”, a subset of synagogues.
I work 8 hours and then I come home and cook dinner, what the hell is there to talk about? I don’t like talking about work because I try to forget it exists, and I don’t have time to do anything else.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you use a dishwasher or wash dishes by hand?
4·4 months agoIt’s been a while since I watched that video, but didn’t the person you reply to address every point stated in the video?
The only other point not stated in the video (but is mentioned in the more recent video) is to not use a brand that also sells pods, because they’re likely making the powder shittier to upsell you on pods.
“Sounds like it is working pretty well to me” when I spend multiple days trying to get Linux working for one purpose (to draw) and am unsuccessful.
This is why “current year is the year of the Linux desktop” is hilarious to anyone who doesn’t use Linux.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you have a strong opinion on the death penalty?
1·5 months agoThe death penalty is not an effective punishment, it is a security measure and should only be used if confinement is unsuccessful and the risk is sufficient, which should be a high bar.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some loanwords (originated in another language and usually retains original spelling in equivalent english) for concepts, things, or experiences that English doesnt necessarily have yet?
2·5 months agoI mean, that’s not a uniquely Muslim concept. I think that’s pretty universal, although we don’t have a word for the concept in English. It’s just considered unhygienic.
Unless you mean to say that when someone has used a utensil it is permanently tainted.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something you never understood the hype for?
1·8 months agoGreat comparison. Just as asking the woman to cover up is ineffective, so is trying to enforce pedestrian safety on the pedestrian side. Much more effective is to prevent the suspect/driver! Glad we came to an agreement.

You don’t actually get that much storage doing this unless you increase the scale by a couple order of magnitude. At which point you’re basically describing building a dam in practical terms.
