Democrats are also conservatives. If you allow the oligarchs and aristocrats to choose who represents you then they will always choose candidates who rule in their interest. You can’t change this system by playing within the ruleset you’re given. Democratic power can only ever be wielded by unions of workers and communes of citizens. Those organizations combine and concentrate the power of regular people and can effectively wield this against the ruling class.
This is literally a post of someone trying to find a workaround for a problem that only exists on windows… A question was asked and an appropriate answer given, if you refuse to accept the answer, thats on you, go read a different post
What non-fiction book could you just not put down? Was it a biography? Some obscure textbook? A collection of papers or speeches? Share your suggestions below!
I’m going to give you two because I pretty much only read nonfiction and I can’t decide.
Outlaws IncWhich is a lot of fun tales of the adventures of post-soviet aerial smugglers.
The other is Topsoil and Civilization which you can request a copy of here. This is about how all (from memory) great civilizations have collapsed in part due to the degradation of their topsoil. Its very good, highly relevant, and many years ago started me on the life path I’m now on
An overwhelming majority of what we eat is made from plants and animals. This means that composition of our almost entire food is chemicals from the realm of organic chemistry (carbon-based large molecules). Water and salt are two prominent examples of non-organic foodstuffs - which come from the realm of inorganic chemistry....
My partner doesn’t do much on the computer except web browsing and writing. The Scrivener writing program had a Linux version at some point that was abandoned....
Have to use Windows for work (I’ve asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification… That’s clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it
I’ve been using various distros for the past 6 months trying to find the right fit for my work. I do remote desktop support of many windows based enterprises.
I use Linux desktop every single day for 8 hours. I also play games of all sorts.
KDE neon was what I had when I started out and it was great. Zero problems. There’s no reason you’d ever need CLI in plasma desktop that I can see. Fedora/plasma is a no go. Too complex with selinux and you really do need to know what you’re doing. Still quite usable for 90% of day to day
For the past month I’ve been on mint 21 and have had zero issues and zero CLI time. Been enjoying baldurs gate 3 out of the box, using outlook, teams, various browsers and whatnot. Not going to give a comprehensive list here, but everything works perfectly and almost everything has been installed straight from the software manager.
I had a pile of old parts of all sorts of machines sitting in some boxes. Was poking through and thought “hang on”… Bing bang boom threw some bits together and built a new PC to run a jellyfin media server on Mint. Don’t even know what most of the parts are…

I just got this popup while playing New vegas. I don’t even use chrome, i’ve switched to firefox. How can this be allowed? Also, this is Win10

Apart from water and salt, are there any inorganic foods?

Game ad notification on Windows... (lemmy.world)
