- Comment on What does the process of disobeying illegal military orders look like? [US] 14 hours ago:
Look at what happened to Mark Kelly for simply suggesting people should disobey illegal orders
- Comment on Valve’s Steam Machine has been delayed, and the RAM crisis will impact pricing 21 hours ago:
Release the controller! Release the controller! Release the controller! Release the controller! Release the controller! Release the controller!
- Comment on We dont talk about what happened to Alex Pretti enough. 1 day ago:
I don’t think there enough hours in the day to talk about all the things we should be talking about right now. It’s a constant onslaught of crazy. Do you want to talk about the US bombing boats and killing people in the Caribbean? How about Renae Good? No? We could discuss the Gaza strip or the ongoing war in Ukraine. Oh hey, remember when Trump kidnapped the Venezuelan president? Ai seems like it might doom us all… Do you think anything is going to happen to any of the wealthy folks in the Epstein files? The strategy of everything all at once is very effective. We as people cannot unite about anything because we don’t even have time to focus on one thing. So many victims.
- Comment on How come in movies tv shows books etc at court they make it seem like swearing on the bible prevents you from lieing? If my family or I was in danger I would lie my ass off to get out of it.. 1 day ago:
And the prosecution will find this post and show it to the judge or jury in an extremely large font
- Comment on Welcoming Discord users amidst the challenge of Age Verification 5 days ago:
What client are you using? I set up a space a while back but have no way of putting my channels into categories so it’s all alphabetic and clumsy. It was less than ideal
- Comment on Welcoming Discord users amidst the challenge of Age Verification 5 days ago:
Just tried and failed to install cinny flatpak. Something about an error dispatching to Wayland display. The screenshot looks nice though
- Comment on Welcoming Discord users amidst the challenge of Age Verification 5 days ago:
Unless the servers can have separate channels and interface like slack or discord then it’s not going to work for most people. Correct me if they have implemented this. I tried using it for quite a while and it was just clumsy. Most people want/need a server with channels that can have categories
- Comment on Discord Users Threaten Exodus Over Age Verification Face Scan Controversy 1 week ago:
Matrix is good but not as simple as discord. Lots of users aren’t going to like it.

- Comment on Steam Hardware: Launch timing and other FAQs - Steam News 1 week ago:
They should just release the steam controller while they figure out RAM stuff.
- Comment on Is it normal I feel embarrassed about being female sometimes because of feminine smells I don't want to be associated with? 1 week ago:
I’m old and have never experienced a lady smelling “fishy”. Don’t worry about this. There’s definitely better things to worry about.

They lost me already. I’ve migrated away from base Firefox.
- Comment on Windows 11 just lost 5% market share in two months despite Windows 10 losing support. 2 weeks ago:
There are many stops between mint and arch. I’d personally point a new user towards fedora or maybe another Debian distro

- Comment on Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel 2 weeks ago:
My gym has separate little shower/changing rooms
- Comment on Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I ended up using gym t shirt that was fairly clean since I didn’t do cardio. It all worked out in the end
- Comment on Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel 2 weeks ago:
I don’t have Facebook though. And I was all wet. Seemed appropriate

- Comment on YSK what legal rights you have in encounters with ICE 3 weeks ago:
Title should be changed to “ysk what legal rights will be violated in encounters with ice”
- Comment on In multiple shots (no pun intended) it is shown him holding a phone to record. Question is what happened to the phone and why not release his video? 3 weeks ago:
What do you need to see on the phone? We already know what happened. It was filmed from multiple angles.

Subculture or not it sounds like you just met some friends.
- Comment on If the color of the Sun was orange, wouldn't the clouds and everything white also be orange? My friend is adamant that 30 years ago the "real" Sun was orange but got replaced with a white LED. 3 weeks ago:
I stand by my previous statement. They are either trolling you or complete idiots.

- Comment on Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that! PCs refuse to shut down after Microsoft patch 4 weeks ago:
Or any of the other “easy” distros. To be honest… The “gaming” distros have been just as easy as mint to me. Cachy, bazzite, and to a lesser degree nobara (points knocked off for giving me grief after an update) have all been very easy and stable.
I think people get scared because everyone says you need to use command line in Linux. That’s not really true any more than it is in Windows. There are certain things that are easier with command line or other things that might need to be done there, but it’s easier and faster to look up what those things are than navigating the purposefully buried settings in Windows and everything basic can be done in gui anyhow. You can get as technical as you want in Linux.
The hardest thing for me about switching was finding comparable programs that I was used to. It takes time to find THE BEST PDF EDITOR or anything else on a new OS.

I came across this the other day but haven’t had a chance to use it. Hopefully this saves someone a lot of time installing programs.
