🤣

Unless you’re in europe where suburbs have food places in walking distance

I am still confused. My understanding was that trans people change their gender. This is something I am able to wrap my head around because gender (man/woman) is a human construct anyway and people should have the freedom to choose where they are on that spectrum.

But isn’t sex a genetic thing that can’t be changed? If it’s the case that a person can choose whether they are male or female then science is going to need new terminology to replace male/female for XY and XX because the words science used to use have been commandeered to mean something more like gender?

Speeds can’t increase forever though because physics. I was under the impression 5ghz was near the theoretical limit, so I don’t believe we’ll see 7ghz any time soon.

ok, I could look this up, but I’m asking you instead. Why is Israel’s behaviour over the last 10 years in Gaza more justified than Russia’s?

I just tried this and it was blurry until I logged out and back in!

“M$” was funny on slashdot 20 years ago but it’s a bit tired now.

And notepad is a lot better than it used to be.

Also, calling Microsoft as M$ is pretty cringe, like, are they really any more money grabbing than Apple, Amazon or any other big tech?

There’s some instructions here but basically:

1. sudo apt install zram-config

2. append to end of /etc/sysctl.conf:

   vm.swappiness = 180
   # disable swap readahead (since using zram swap)
   vm.page-cluster = 0 
   

   Can check these have been applied with cat /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster or .../swappiness

I also live in Europe

My x1 carbon, with tlp and kubuntu, idling with screen on estimates 20 hours battery life. Haven’t had the patience to test it yet.

If you run iCloud and syncthing on the same machine you can point syncthing at the icloud folder, and you’ve got a way to sync icloud to Linux.

Also there are plenty of Ubuntu-based distros that look different!

Apple Maps for driving

Organic Maps for hiking

Google Maps for reviews

Works very well in the UK too, not just US

True facts

I’m basically doing the same, but those “pending update, close the app to avoid disruptions” popups are kind of disrupting.

ok, but Tildes isn’t setting itself up as a Reddit competitor, like, its goal isn’t to get people to move away from Reddit. It’s just its own thing which happens to have some similarities to Reddit but with a bunch of differences too.

Been using rsnapshot for years, has saved me more than once
