You're just not alpha enough to understand. Real men beat their wives

You are on Lemmy, which shows that you weren't deterred from learning about all the instances and stuff. So you are open to learning. So I would slowly dip my toes into Linux if there's no Windows specific software you absolutely depend on.

I would suggest Linux Mint: https://www.linuxmint.com/

This is beginner friendly and for the most part can be operated pretty much like Windows. Slowly, you will get used to typing in commands into the terminal to maybe update and upgrade your system. Online instructions to install programs are widly available to find (install [program] on ubuntu/debian) can be easy since it's based off of ubuntu/debian

Now, if you really want to use windows for whatever reason, everything is already on the massgrave website for you to read and install.

Linux will show you how to troubleshoot and use your computer more efficiently and not spy on you.

Windows will simultaneously spy on you and still shit itself so you'll still have to learn to troubleshoot. Give it a few years, and Windows will enshitify further. You're just delaying the inevitable.

Linux Mint is another flavor that is geared for easy beginner friendly people.

The ipad would win if it had a usable OS.

Executive branch controls executive things. Voters elected orange man who likes elon.

Put simple, because people wanted this.

You can access any sub and post whatever you wish.

You can post on [email protected] instead of [email protected] if you wish.

You're communicating to three people in this thread all on different instances, all from your own account on another instance. You don't need to join another server if you don't want to. If you can't access an instance or something, it's because your instance has defederated or simply blocked it.

Yeah I hate elon but I'm too lazy to sell the car

I always thought Deadpool and Deathstroke look eerily similar

They're effectively the illuminati conspiracy theorists have been trying to find for many years now. Legit wrote up plans and published it online and they control donald trump. I don't understand why there isn't more outrage about this

Start being more active and posting stuff

 

When SimpleLogin merged with Proton, proton unlimited members are able to use SimpleLogin premium for free. Is that the case for Standard Notes? I haven't figured out a way to do this.

I'm starting out with a cheap Mo Fang Ge brand cube but it's pretty stiff for my taste. I saw some videos about speedcubes and how you can adjust them and all that, thought it was neat. What are some good cubes out there? I would want to avoid any Chinese brand cubes if possible because cheap and Chinese probably means their workers aren't fairly compensated.

Edit: after much research, I don't think a non-chinese brand cube will be possible. So I guess recommend me whatever the best options are. From the $10-20 range would be a good price for me.

Fastest was 4:17. I'm trying to match it

Learned how to do it w/ video yesterday using jperm's 10 min tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ron6MN45LY

Edit: I'll post my cube tmr if someone reminds me.

 

I know Florida, Texas, and other counties have tried and succeeded to ban books, I wonder how that is even legal since we have the first amendment. I tried doing research on this since Huntington Beach is banning books and people were petitioning against that at the main library.

I made a little post asking people to petition on the Orange County sub.

If you're a resident of Huntington Beach, head over to the library and sign their petition. They're trying to stop the book bans. I don't want to see a mini Florida or Texas in orange county.

Found an article on the topic: https://www.ocregister.com/2024/05/31/petitions-in-huntington-beach-want-to-ask-voters-to-overturn-changes-at-city-libraries/

 

Are there any good resources for helping someone getting into Linux? One of my friends I never thought would get into Linux is asking me for help. He specifically is an advanced Windows power user. I also had someone who was a complete noob, even to Windows.

For the noob, I suggested LMDE and Kubuntu and they've been having some issues installing LMDE.

For the power user, I suggested the easy distros such as lmde, kubuntu, nobara but also told them if they wanted to jump into the deep end, arch is cool.

However, my suggestions don't even cover DEs, WMs or what they even are. I just wish there was a good guide out there. I think that's the biggest hurdle, so many options and not knowing what to pick.

Thinking about going somewhere with my family this summer, perhaps to Alaska, Hawaii (Kauai), or somewhere Canada.

I would like to experience nice outdoor stuff and do fun activities while I'm there. Any ideas?

 

I don't want to spend a fortune and so I'm deciding to do classic recurve over olympic since it's much more cheap. What do you guys recommend to try out? The closest archery place has this kit for $300, should I go with it or pick and choose other stuff individually to start out?

Apparently my cousin's best friend works marketing for Squid Industries and is Lucas's gf. So they sent me some stickers and some other goodies. Thanks Ashley!
