A vote not for Biden is a vote for Trump and the death of thousands of Americans AND Palestinians AND Ukrainians. No matter what option we choose, Palestinians will die. One option just has significantly less death than the other.

Don’t the case

Another 5 years and then he can run for president

That’d be great if there actually were functional public transportation or any alternative transportation in most of California and 99.9999% of America.

Bird also could’ve been sedated while being transported

It’s very easy to change languages once you learn the fundamentals. I’ve worked with more languages but those are the ones I worked with the most with my favourite and goto being Rust.

It was. There’s a partially working Linux build available and it looks like they’re trying to port to windows too

Jackfruit! These taste pretty good when ripe but can get a little bit messy to clean up. It’s really sticky when fresh and soap does not clean it off. You have to scrub your hands and the machete with vegetable oil to dissolve the sticky goop and then wash them off with soap.

One of my local gas stations had that to where it was so loud you can hear them in the car. A few weeks after they installed them, someone came by with a hand drill and drilled out all of the speakers. Not sure what happened to that hero but we need more people like them.

I remember a documentary touching on that subject but I think it was moreso related to the amount of sugar and processing the cocoa goes through before being sold on the market

And then not voting is like the attendant coming back after everyone else has made their choice but she only has one of the options left for you

You guys don’t just grab the stick of butter and rub it into the bread like a glue stick?

There’s also the whole fact that you’re less likely to get downvoted and berated to hell on lemmy. Still happens sometimes though if you openly present as American

In the US, those are pretty much the only option unless you know a local farmer or producer willing to sell in bulk directly to you

I think the main issue is too much fragmentation within Linux. There’s the whole choosing the distro, choosing a desktop environment (or window manager), figuring out how to use the packages for your distro, etc. Then you have issues like some software being too outdated for your distro or not packaged at all so you look into Flatpak but it’s a whole other system on your computer to have to keep track of and maintain or the software you need is not there either so you have to compile from source. There also comes the issue of getting help when something breaks. There’s hundreds of different little bits in every single distro that makes it a pain in the ass to fix sometimes unless you’re using one of the few large distros where the guides actually work.

I really don’t think Linux will become truly mainstream for the every day user until there is a proper “default” experience like what Windows and MacOS provide. Sure some people will say use this distro and this desktop environment and it’d just work but that forces the common person to trust the other person online and that common person has to make a choice. If their first experience on Linux is bad, they’ll just throw it off altogether and go back to Windows or MacOS. Everyone has a different first experience with Linux.

I’m not saying strip Linux of all configurability. I’m saying there needs to be a focus on a standard Linux distro with a standardized desktop environment and standardized overall user experience. If the user wants to change any of it, they’re free to do so like anyone can with Linux right now. Also, the user should be able to manage the system entirely through a simple GUI. If the user has to for any reason go into a terminal, Linux has failed at being usable by the common person.

I say this as a person who uses Arch (btw) on my laptops and desktop and Debian 12 and Proxmox 8 for my servers and RHEL 8 at work. I really love Linux but I just can’t in good faith recommend it to a person who wants to just use their damn computer unless they’re willing to put up with the massive fragmentation and lack of support in the community.

Tl;dr Linux doesn’t have a “default” experience like Windows or MacOS so a common user will struggle to even get started or look for help/advice
