I don't think I have for more than a decade and I'm kinda amazed at how many upvotes this meme got.

Ah, a very common use case.

When I bought my laptop i was using windows and didn’t research Linux compatibility :(

I apologize for my general grumpiness this morning. Totally reasonable. :-)

And yup. A decade ago was when Linux turned a corner on the wifi driver front, 11 years ago was hell

I lol'd. :-)

When I take them to the recycle center afterwards not usually. I just put a blanket down and use care.

No problem, I've done no magic of any kind there. This is what the manjaro installer created only.

cat /proc/cmdline

I'm fairly sure I have run this system dual-monitor though I don't do it routinely. I'll check sometime this weekend and let you know, if you are interested for comparison's sake.

Ways to pirate music as convenient as Spotify?

The reason I gave up on MP3’s and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I’ve been listening “Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds” song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I’m trying to find “Stremio” of the music world. Can someone assist?...

Ah sorry! I have only run it from within Docker on Linux. BUT, I'm glad you got it working!

I was about to move from Plex to Emby when the whole controversy erupted, and I waited excitedly for it to be ready.

Switched as soon as it was viable and have not regretted it one time.

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

I don’t really think I’d like my dick to be any more sensitive than it is.

Exactly how I felt in my twenties. Hell, I used to wish I had an off switch for the whole damn thing.

Now in my 50s - a smidge more sensitivity would be OK. An "on" switch would be good too.

😁

Hey OP I just realized I should have linked the very tiny (so far no one but me posts there) kbin magazine I mod which is intended to more or less collect songs such as you describe. For each post I've included the lyrics.

I'm not sure how to link it that it will clickable on Lemmy, but it's:

@musicwithamessage

Music with a Message

@musicwithamessage

Edit- I'd love not to be the only one posting!

I have been slowly dipping my toes in Brother Ali the past few months, and recently listened to this for the first time. His voice is awesome but some of the words may be a little hard to catch. It's worth looking up the lyrics.

His voice is like caramel in my ears (in the most complimentary way), but it's his lyrics that get me in this and a few others.

Ah, the block list is going to go up a lot as I read this thread, I'm guessing.

If you aren't black, and you think you have a reason (or are trying to find one) where it's OK to say the N word in a non-academic context (and maybe even then), or you think you have a valid opinion on whether black folks should use it, or you think that black folks using it somehow justifies your use of it, you're either willfully ignorant of the depths to which that word has been used to dehumanize, and thus is indeed worthy of unique treatment, or you're a bigot, and likely both.

Edit: Not as many folks falling over themselves to find the corner case where it should be OK for them as I expected. gg fediverse, you aren't quite as shitty as r****t yet.

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

There's not another word with as lengthy a history rooted in dehumanization of the other, so the unique status shouldn't be surprising.

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

you should clarify what exactly you mean by ‘free’, cause as an outsider it just seems like you have the freedom to get indiscriminatly mowed down by high powered rifles owned by mentally ill spree shooters.

As an insider it seems like this too.

But to the guy you replied to it's most likely the freedom to have a gun which you never do those bad things with, while also plugging your ears regarding the reality that the same laws protecting your ability to have a gun and not do those bad things are enabling that endless stream of indiscriminate deaths by the folks who do those bad things.

And although I don't know him personally, he probably also deflects to mental health being the cause while continuing to vote for the party that both is responsible for our lack of mental health infrastructure and also refuses to consider restrictions on gun ownership.

Nah I mean it literally just showed me

That's good to know. However, you asked:

Yeah but the real question is, why the hell did you choose

I didn't choose, as I just showed you. What you saw is what I saw.

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

Fair. You aren't missing the pinnacle of cinema either. If you're going to watch one new (to you) Star Wars movie this year - make it Rogue One if you haven't seen it. It's the best Star Wars movie this century IMO. (By a lot.)

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

The whole point of it is that whatever you described...

It's only a matter of degree though, at best. The three movies OP refers to were absolute shit in their own way. OP could have done a like to like comparison with Clone Wars and GoT and had a meme that made much more sense.

Meanwhile, I think there's a credible argument that the prequels (you do know what I'm describing, right?) are not in the slightest better than the last season of GoT (if we ignore their contribution to the meme-o-sphere), making OP fairly weak, and in an almost Onion-like way.

be_excellent_to_each_other,
@be_excellent_to_each_other@kbin.social avatar

Ironically, as an OG fan who really disliked the prequels (you can find my lengthy screed elsewhere in this thread) I thought III was easily the best of those three.
