Arch is fine if you like tinkering. If you want stuff just to work try Mint.

Los Angeles City Controller Kenneth Mejia apparently took to Twitter (accounts such as this are no longer verified in Musk’s Twitter) to announce his office’s investigation of tree trimming on the sidewalk where workers, writers, and actors are picketing.

A sexy outfit can get you arrested in Phoenix — especially if you’re Black or trans (www.phoenixnewtimes.com)

If there was no intellectual property, what would prevent a company like Amazon to simply sell any work every published in their best monopoly marketplace without ever giving a cent to the creators? How would, for instance, the author if a novel make money?

The Cybertruck is a vehicle that's unlike anything that was had ever been fine before. It's not surprising that bringing it to market was a challenge. The question is whether being different will also make it a better vehicle.

How safe is open source software? What are the general benefits?

So with open source software more on my mind lately I was wondering - while I get the benefits of transparency and such, how safe is it? If the source code is available to all, isn’t it easier to breach for people (like the recent cookies hack)? If I’d have an open source password manager, would it be easier for people to...

Vulnerabilities exist in every piece of complex software. Open source means that when a something is found, it'll be patched and pushed out quickly because there is no secrecy and everybody just wants it to get done. In commercial, closed source software, the infectives are different. Companies world rather spend their time on money making activities that supporting their old stuff. And they're scared of reputational damage, so they're more likely to sweep things under the rug. Generally, i trust open source software far more.

But kbin and lemmy can federate with each other (that sounds strange) so it's not a competition.

I'd question your choice of friends.

Have you had any bad experiences with people on Kbin yet? Can we do better than Reddit culture? (lemmy.world)

However, when reddit crapped the bed, by comparison, the threadiverse basically didn’t have an established culture. There was a handful of lemmy instances (we were one of them), but the only one of notable size was lemmy.ml. kbin didn’t even exist in any meaningful way until a couple of months before reddit died....

Reddit actively encouraged far right groups in the name of "engagement". Also, Huffman has never made a secret of his right wing leanings. Here we have a chance to keep out the fuckers by sane and consistent moderation. Also we don't have algorithms here that foment hate and divisiveness.

It's a theory that fits the available evidence. So it's more valid than most conspiracy theories.

Idaho opts out of nearly $15 million that would feed children this summer. Why? (www.idahostatesman.com)
