I will say the only thing more convenient for most people is that it’s preinstalled on the computer they bought at a big box store. If that changed it would make a world of difference.

that’s not in the plan it won’t increase until they dominate the market and lock in the user base and I don’t think enough people subscribe yet. squeezing free accounts to put you in the just enough annoyed state. Just like mobile games do.
also a big thing was the rapid openings of malls in the 80s and 90s. honestly they opened too many of them then just kind of limped along as it was too hard to close and Sears kinda funded them till their death.
yeah that’s literally the definition of Cold War. The biggest lie we were told is the cold war ended, it didn’t. Think about it the US defeated an economic system Reagan didn’t give two shits about the Authoritarian Mob that took over after the fall. As long as capitalism won the US called it a victory. I’m no tanky by any means but it’s plan as day where the US priority was when it came to the Soviet Union.
i agree with all of that but everything you have listed is voting which I already said you should do without question and really should be the bare minimum of civic duty and as you have said not very effective. Plus that only affects domestic policy and you have to change a lot of domestic policy to even scratch the surface of changing foreign policy.
By no means am I saying give up but the more you look at foreign policy and spend your mental capacity. The more they distract you from changing the local that will change very slowly the domestic that will change the foreign. the powers at be want you terrified of the things you can’t change to distract you from the things you can. so they stay in power.
It’s the same thing with terrorism conventional warfare doesn’t work against an irregular force. It takes slow moves at a very local level like like we leaned from FM 3-23 assuming you are US military, forgive me if you already not.
I was in the military as well but other than voting and writing your local and regional Representatives. Which everyone should be doing no mater what. what do you suggest the avg person do to affect geopolitics other than stress ourselves out. Let me know what we should do and I will be there.
There is no morality in Foreign Policy it all about power be that soft or hard power. That machinery of that power goes back hundreds of years ago. Do you know what I worry about?
I worry about if my neighbors have enough food to eat. Do the teachers have the supplies to teach our kids the best they can. Building a community support network. These are things I can affect change.
The sad thing is climate change will take us out and cause more suffering than a true WW3 will ever do and I’m not just talking about the heat. I’m talking water wars that have already started happening. Supply chain issues caused by climate stopping people getting the right medicine another pandemic.
The rest is just Saber Rattling.
if it helps give you any comfort WW3 has always been around the corner in one way or another for as long as most of us have been alive. if you are reading articles about it. Then it’s not going to start and if it does start it will all be over before you even hear about it. So try your best to just live the life you can.
if history of the world part 2 is anything to go by having Mel attached is definitely not reassurance off quality. but hey good on him for getting a payday.
the default is pipewire now so you may need to install the alsa pipewire module
very true the only reason I’m okay with it is the files are standard markdown and there is no database that locks you in. the only thing keeping me with them is features and workflow. if any open source project gets feature parity I would switch tomorrow
you are correct i feel guilty every time I use it. but making my company pay for a license on every job I work on. it’s got one of the best licenses you can get for proprietary software. my only concern is it might go away and can’t last forever like open source can.
it was good I would put it on the same level as Agent to the Stars or Fuzzy Nation. plain old goofy fun.
it is really good and has a great pay off. So much so that it turned me from not knowing him at all to getting what ever he writes without question or even reading the synopsis, but if you are looking for light hearted story this is not the series for you at this time.
tracker-tag works
no judgements but I’m curious what’s the need for the folder to be sorted first that something like folder pinning or tagging doesn’t work for you?
there is a cult of Debian? where do I sign up?
good thing that command won’t do anything anymore
honestly the biggest problem with the media is. Linux represents the very thing corporate culture in those media empires just can’t fathom. the idea of cooperation for the greater good that Linux represents and not being 100% profit motivated. They just don’t get it and worse they see it as a threat. Microsoft can be a competitor to them but the idea of open source is a competitor to the whole system and that is a far greater threat to the people on top.

by definition food is considered a drug, so no one I guess
You could buy box copies of the original suse Linux that had manuals in the box the size of a TI graphing calculator manual.
Once you got X working everything else was cake by comparison.
