cyborganism,

They’ve already started to build up their arsenal in case of a Trump re-election.

I don’t think them building a big arsenal to a point that they don’t need the US would affect trade relations other than they won’t buy as many weapons and ammo from the US.

What would have a big impact on trade and geo political relations is Trump being re-elected.

cyborganism,

I have an OG Surface Pro. The first one. It’s running Windows 10 at the moment and it’s doing fine except for the occasional wifi/Bluetooth bugs. I’m using it exclusively in tablet mode with the pen. No keyboard.

When Windows 10 is going to reach its end of life, I’d like to install Linux on it. But I need it to have a tablet style interface with gestures if possible.

Do I need any special distro or drivers on that hardware? And what would you recommend as the desktop environment?

cyborganism,

Honestly, if the service respects my privacy and isn’t littered with ads, I don’t mind paying at all. Like I wouldn’t mind paying a monthly fee for services provided by Proton, for example, for email, online storage, vpn, etc. I think it’s fair. There’s a lot of infrastructure behind it and employees. Things don’t just run by themselves for free.

But when I pay for a subscription and they publish ads as well for extra income, not only does it make my experience unpleasant, but it’s incredibly greedy. And when I get charged for a service that exploits all my private data to create a user profile that can be sold and used to push targeted ads and other fake information with the goal of changing my opinion on important democratic topics, then that’s when I start completely avoiding that service altogether.

cyborganism,

I don’t even care if it’s for a dumb meme or a joke a this guy’s expense, any publicity for this asshole makes me so fucking mad.

I just wish the entire global population could just all collectively forget about that shit stain and never speak of him again.

God I hate this fuck face.

Why highly intelligent people suffer from more mental and physical disorders

cyborganism,

I wholeheartedly disagree with this comparison. Newfoundlanders are super kind and welcoming like most Maritimers.

This comparison is just so mean to them, you should apologize.

cyborganism,

As a side note, I find it incredible how much programmers have such little knowledge of how to use Git properly.

Even the most amazing developers I’ve worked with found themselves completely unable to manage their repos properly.

cyborganism,

The vast majority of the web, really.

cyborganism,

Set it to view communities from all instances. That’s how I get fresh content.

cyborganism,

I always clean everything a couple days before leaving, so when I get back home, I come back to a clean home with nothing to do.

cyborganism,

I found the easiest to work with to be QT.

cyborganism,

The Koch brothers.

cyborganism,

I’ve actually started playing all my games in Linux recently thanks to Steam and Proton and it’s been amazing so far with very little trouble. I can’t believe how easy and how well it plays.

cyborganism,

Just use ‘sudo’. Oh wait… Oh. I’m sorry.

cyborganism,

Dude was eating out of a restaurant dumpster in a back alley somewhere next to the cooks that were enjoying their cigarette break.

cyborganism,

What a fucking farce. Unless the people take matters into their own hands and topple their governments, nothing will ever happen.

cyborganism,

What’s your favorite instant ramen?

Mine has to be Nissin Raoh. It’s so god damn delicious. It’s the closest thing to a real Japanese ramen shop experience.

cyborganism,

I can’t believe this used to be an actual medical procedure. It’s horrifying.

cyborganism,

Fucking hell

cyborganism,

How about using open source alternatives? Like Gimp or Inkscape?

cyborganism,

Calm down dude.

Also, I wouldn’t mind people pirating Photoshop for personal purposes, but if you’re going to do this for your business and make a profit off their software, you ought to pay for it.

That’s my opinion.

Because then the authorities can get a warrant to access that information if they believe you are guilty of something.

In the case where a law is unjust or puts peoples’ lives at risk, say like abortion laws in some US states, the government can use this against you as proof in a court of law.

Edit: here’s another post about how this information is used against people:

I never got the whole arch thing. Arching your back is cheating.

Edit: I apologize. I was taught to do it without arching from my kinesiologist. I didn’t mean to offend anyone. Thank you for the links to the articles on the subject. I appreciate it.

cyborganism,

When you listen to dubstep and that bass drops.
