As much as I enjoy using GNOME as a software project and am excited about their design direction as a UI/UX nerd who loves open source stuff, I REALLY hope the new person they find can encourage them to move in a direction that involves playing well with others more often.

It's very frustrating how many projects or groups in the open source/free software world seem incapable of being prosocial, facilitating healthy community involvement, and NOT being antagonistic towards projects and people with different goals, priorities, or perspectives.

She's not wrong that most foreign terrorist threats the US faces were radicalized by our own political and military involvement in other regions

All good, I was putting it off cause I was stressed about who would win, at least now it won't be stressful 😅

Glad it went to 5 games!

I guess that's what I get for not having watched the finals yet 🙃

If you're using a custom de-googled rom you don't have the play store, so this would just gut that functionality :/ same for any other app that decides they need this, which if the past is anything to go on is going to be a ton of apps that really don't need it

Well that fucking sucks

Ahhh, yeah that's fair, I was thinking domestically

Take care :)

We even have real alternatives. Mastodon and bluesky are both right there, just go make an account and post a link for folks.

I'm curious what you'd have liked that wasn't included? We got cost of living issues, social issues like protections for queer folks, health of our democratic institutions kinda stuff, the climate crisis; I feel like she mentioned pretty much all the stuff I really care about

Looks like a really compelling list of policy stances, thanks for posting

See, if I block greentext I'm gonna really miss bewildering nonsense fever-dream posts like this:

I saw it and thought back to this discussion lol

Anyway, hope you're having a good one

Your username is fitting.

Believe it or not, some people like making casual conversation with other people, even if it's just idle agreement.

Hope you have a nice day.

The LCS uploaded this today, it ended up being genuinely super fun. Was a really lovely way to start my day

Hello, I broke my laptop about a week ago and could use a hand figuring out the best approach for recovering the files when my new laptop arrives

The laptop was running fedora and would have used whatever encryption option is default in the fedora installer (The laptop required a password before it'd fininish booting so I'm pretty confident it was encrypted), which I believe would be LUKS?

If I understand correctly the ssd is a socketed sata drive, so I figured I'd buy a sata drive enclosure when I get my new laptop that'd let me plug it in via USB

I have the password I needed to boot when the device was working, if I get a sata enclosure can I access the files?

Any input, guidance, thoughts or suggestions are appreciated :)

I really enjoyed the well researched video Fortnine put together on how grille height is the greatest predictor of pedestrian collision fatality.

I don't totally belong in this community as I rather like cars & motorcycles (but not how dependent our society is on them), but I really enjoyed the well researched video Fortnine put together on how the height of the front bumper/grille is the greatest predictor of pedestrian collision fatality and I felt it'd be a good fit for the community :)

Even as more of a car enthusiast, it's very frustrating how regulations intended to improve emissions have inadvertently resulted in basically every car on the road being a towering murder-behemoth that isn't actually even practical for their "intended" purposes (Speaking about trucks and SUVs since in my mind at least they're supposed to be utility vehicles for getting stuff done. Truck beds are the same size, but far harder to reach/see into, and get stuff out off for really no benefit whatsoever, and also have crap visibility)

I'm sure the way he voices certain things will be frustrating to some folks in this community, and thats fair- I think there's still merit to the way he's trying to push for a single small change that'd make a really big impact on safety (assuming legislators are willing to bite the bullet and actually do something for once). I try to be an ally to the ideas of making society less car-dependent even coming from a different perspective, and I hope y'all can see the value of folks in the enthusiast world as allies to the cause even if we don't share perspectives on everything. (For context, Fortnine is a motorcycling YouTube channel, and is as such obviously run by folks who love and care about motorcycling)

Hopefully this knowledge being more commonplace and widely discussed can more quickly result in legislation that makes cars far safer for pedestrians and cyclists

Hope y'all have a good day :)

Edit: added some context regarding Fortnine that intended to include but initially forgot

A bowl of somewhat lazy tomato based curry made with stew beef and served with jasmine rice, some toasted naan with garlic honey butter, and garnished with some cilantro :)

(Somewhat lazy because I cheated making the "sauce", using a jar of curry sauce in addition to the aromatics I fried up, supplemented with a bunch of additional spices)

Thanks for your help, and happy to be a part of this community ☺️

Just thought I'd mention it since it improved my browsing experience a bunch. Seems to work great for a variety of different media sites, and means I dont have to wait for Firefox or a custom tab to load just to see a picture gif or video!

Hope you gave a lovely day :)
