it’s also really stupid considering the liberal cites are literally what MAKES Texas. There’s mass amounts of population in rural areas that just flat don’t vote. If everyone voted in TX it’s be blue as fuck.
Either way when the cities themselves lose all the workers that high paying jobs need the cities start to fall and the revenue for the state will follow.
Literal idiots that just think the oilfield will go on forever and nothing else will matter
ubuntu is the most widely used distro and very simple to setup and gaming out of the box with steam is very simple. Distro end of the day doesn’t matter all that much because you can change them to your hearts content, but for a beginner, you’d probably have the easiest time with an ubuntu distro.
Doesn’t hurt to have virtual box windows on your linux box just so you can easily do some of that other stuff. While I have done fine with libre office for a long time there are definitely problems with formatting so having a windows VM would just solve that issue. Plus teams and w/e.
Epic games will take some serious tweaking, but not impossible.
Yah the people I know haven’t even read a single thing about the “don’t say gay” bill nor have they even read 1 thing about the Trump documents. They call it a political hit job and I ask them about the specifics of the documents that were IN HIS BATHROOM and they legit hadn’t heard any of it lol. It’s because the media they consume actively avoid its.
I’d argue that MOST of these whackos are so disconnected from reality because all they listen to is pod casts and watch fox news. They don’t read articles written by actual journalists with sources.
I’v been using Ubuntu for nearing 20 years now. Maybe like 18ish… It took debian’s rock solidness and made it ez pz. It’s super easy to install and configure and runs like a dream. Has long term stable releases especially important for server architecture. Has the “server” install that is minimal on disk space.
Etc… Just really rock solid distro that I’ve run for decades and has cost me $0 to do so.
I ran red hat till all the cool kids told me it’s got to be Debian and then Ubuntu hit the scene and that was that. I’m sure Arch is fine and I’d bet had I chosen to stick with Red Hat and move to Fedora it’d also be fine. End of the day it’s still Linux.
The people who support him don’t know he said this… They literally don’t know shit about these people and only watch Fox news which wont air this
I’m in a town of 3600… People are super fucking poor and still work their asses off. None of them would give a fuck if you “try that” or w/e the fuck that guy is on about… They’d go on about their business because they are just surviving. They’d sure as fuck not give a shit about any sorta of vigilante justice. They’d say “that’s definitely not my problem”
Pretty sure this dude is pandering to wannabees who probably have never actually spent any time in a small town in the US.
Brands that don’t buy enough X adds you mean
I think there are still lots of people holding out hope that we steer off the cliff, but meanwhile we’re still globally using as much fossil fuels as we ever have and while there are things on the horizon the CO2 in the air is not going anywhere. So we are going to have major problems to deal with in terms of human sustainability even if we went 100% green today.
Humans are smart, we need time to change entire species to a more sustainable living. Time we just don’t have. So it’s time we skip the BS and start talking about where we are going to get water, how we are going to farm, how we are going to keep the oceans from destroying our coastlines etc…
If we start now we might be able to mitigate some of the effects of climate change or at the very least make it so not everyone just immediately loses all their assets and/or dies from lack of water or starvation.
Let’s avoid mad max if we can.
I’m not saying we give up the fight on eradicating fossil fuels from our system, but I imagine the downvoters took my post that way. It’s just if you spend about 10 seconds watching CNBC or listening to our politicians you’ll find out pretty quick they don’t care about climate change all that much. Just making money… Even the politicians that do care the best they can do is try to help the “free market” move us to a sustainable future lol. Just not going to work.
We have some major water crisis going on right now in a lot of places in the US. Not just deserts. The water wars will be coming much sooner than we anticipated if we don’t start to prepare for it.
yeah my main problem is while we’re over here still arguing with people about climate change’s existence and the loud solution is to somehow rid ourselves overnight of fossil fuels… Meanwhile that’s all fine and dandy, but even if we stopped using fossil fuels today the damage is there and we’re already seeing critical water shortages in tons of places.
It’s time to accept that we are going to have to live through this to some degree until science hopefully finds a way to suck the carbon out of the air.
The hurricanes, the floods, the droughts… all things we need to start working on solving. Droughts being front and center. We need to desalinate. There is just no way around it. We need to get started on that effort yesterday.
at this point we need to be spending all our money on SURVIVING climate change. We can work on mitigating as well, but we’re past the point of no return and still arguing if it’s even an actual thing lol.
bruh… I think you WAY over estimate “lots of people” on lemmy or reddit even. It’s small change compared to the BILLIONS who don’t give a fuck
lol at actual shop… Those were put out of business a LONGGGGGGGGGGGG time ago…
Shops these days are home depot, walmart, best buy, academy, etc…
Dumb take honestly. However they define heat waves may be to blame. What we are experiencing now is just the new normal where every day challenges the record high for that day.
Having the most days above 100 and seeing record drought.
Yah sure this is somehow less extreme lol.
94 degrees in the 30s was a heat wave. I’d love for it to be that “hot” lol
I love gnome Click activities, go to the screen you want, click the program you want… so simple what you are on about man.
I think the advertising it can do is a perfectly reasonable way to monetize…
Their problem is they want to be some major player and not a “right sized” organization… They want to go public and try to be billionaires and be like elon or zuck, but it’s just not going to be that.
So in their quest for GREED they’ll destroy the very thing that can make them absolute massive amounts of money. It’s crazy how many mega corps have fallen to the same fate.
They should welcome 3rd parties and any other means to see reddit and monetize the advertising… Hell they could even try to work streaming deals with NFL and NBA and whatever… Cowboys games live threads alone have caused the entire reddit website to collapse lol.
SOOO much monetization possibilities in that. And it’s charging billion dollar organizations… not the people that use the service…
Spez is not a good business man
shipping is also trucks dude… and all the other nasty ways we move products around the world…
GOP is busy listening to pod casts that’s how they get all their information. They only know how to use their phones so it makes sense that they can’t actually explore the web and open their minds.
Hence letting the religious fruitcakes take over and continue to push wild conspiracy theories and ignore science as their main party platform.
What you are seeing is literally because the people you identify with are mostly fucking idiots. You should be so proud!
Yah and we were actually headed to a 100,000 year cooling cycle. So even their supposed science is wrong lol.
Math checks out
So they just become ocean trash instead? Seems like we should put a stop to that as well.
