Numbing kind of, but it more feels like vibration or “buzzing”, it’s hard to describe

There’s also menthol and whatever compound is in Szechuan pepper.

Probably more like it automatically installs is when you install the system but yeah.
This isn’t Debian. It has a live image that comes with Nvidia drivers so you can have these from the start too.

Well, Bazzite has it pre-installed, but that’s the experience for other stuff lol.
I don’t recommend mint for newbies because it comes with X11 even still.

Same for my partner’s old gaming PC: she used Windows 10 until recently, and Bluetooth as well as the steam overlay didn’t work properly.
Now on Bazzite hey do.

I literally got banned from the “awfulsystems” Lemmy instance for suggesting that Firefox isn’t horrible. No exaggeration, there was nothing else to my comment than a polite suggestion that Firefox is pretty good actually.
- Comment on Just the Browser: tools to remove AI and other bloatware from Chrome, Edge and Firefox 2 weeks ago:
This shows how unhinged the whole recent hate on Firefox is. Turning off GenAI is literally one single setting AND Mozilla is doing things infinitely better than others (e.g. the translation feature is completely local, and having a chatbot in the sidebar is opt-in)

Not if you interpret it as “sufficient but not necessary”.

The USA continues to baffle me. You people still have paper checks? I haven’t seen one in at least 30 years in Europe (before that I was too little to care about such things, so I might never have seen one)

Sorry, I’m not a physicist, but the big bang happening everywhere at once isn’t up for debate. As far as I understand, it’s a well-settled fact. Read the article!
- Comment on Mama! 4 weeks ago:
The big bang didn’t happen in a pattern, it happened everywhere at once: nasaspacenews.com/…/is-the-universe-infinite-new-…
The universe expanding means it gets sparser. It has no edge and no center, so it’s not spherical. It’s either infinite or repeating (e.g. it might be the surface of a 4D torus, but as said: that doesn’t imply an edge). I personally believe it’s infinite and not repeating.
- Comment on Mama! 4 weeks ago:
I’m not philosophizing with this one, the idea that the universe might be truly infinite is very much an accepted possibility among physicists. There’s no conclusive evidence for or against infinity so something about your assertion here must be wrong.
I’m not a physicist, so I can only speculate what might be wrong: maybe it’s because an explosion in our understanding is within a medium, whereas the big bang didn’t happen “inside of a bigger space”. So the big bang wasn’t a point in 3D space because space only started existing with the big bang.
- Comment on Mama! 4 weeks ago:
That’s pretty cool sci-fi!
- Comment on Mama! 4 weeks ago:
There’s also no reason to believe that the big bang happened at one “point”. I believe that the universe (and therefore the big bang) are infinite.
Everything is relative, so something infinite can still expand: since there’s no absolute speed, galaxies can move away from each other everywhere, at all times.

A homeless person freezing to death on the winter streets in the US is as poor as a homeless person starving in Lebanon. Who cares if one of them has a banged-up smartphone. They’re both dying.
- Comment on Tankie 4 weeks ago:
I’m not living there, don’t assume things. And why do you think obesity means wealth? The trash food that makes their people fat and unhealthy is very much an expression of poverty. The wealthy there east healthy food.

What good does a handful of billionaires’ wealth do the poor in the US?

I’d love that. On Reddit, I used to see dozens of upvoted comments by people who only read and believed the headline, all appearing before the first comment written by someone who had read the actual article.

Interestingly, I read “scale, scale and scale” with the same meanings popping in my head in sequence as her explanations were in.

Sure, in isolation, but we were talking and I’ve been on the pro-Firefox side the whole time!

Well don’t tell your grandma about your taste then lol.
I’m joshing, but honestly, I love Hungarian beef goulash with bell peppers!

Exactly, thus Firefox.

You’ve never eaten Hungarian goulash.

No Firefox, no forks

Mozilla is literally the only browser vendor that ever gave a fuck about use privacy.
