7 Things You Should Know Before Switching to GrapheneOS in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Here's some completely unrelated crap

ArE yOU StILL prO GAY!!??

Yes? People should have the right to be gay

CW: SA

The fact that some men rape and assault other people has nothing to do with anyone else being gay or not.

It would also be helpful for you to know that most pedophiles who attack boys (and probably the men doing the raping in prison) are actually straight. [1] Again, nothing to do with gay.

Wtf are you on lol

[1] https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/intelligence-report/2011/10-anti-gay-myths-debunked

Anti-gay activists who make that claim allege that all men who molest male children should be seen as homosexual. But research by A. Nicholas Groth, a pioneer in the field of sexual abuse of children, shows that is not so. Groth found that there are two types of child molesters: fixated and regressive. The fixated child molester — the stereotypical pedophile — cannot be considered homosexual or heterosexual because "he often finds adults of either sex repulsive" and often molests children of both sexes. Regressive child molesters are generally attracted to other adults, but may "regress" to focusing on children when confronted with stressful situations. Groth found, as Herek notes, that the majority of regressed offenders were heterosexual in their adult relationships.

The Child Molestation Research & Prevention Institute notes that 90% of child molesters target children in their network of family and friends, and the majority are men married to women. Most child molesters, therefore, are not gay people lingering outside schools waiting to snatch children from the playground, as much religious-right rhetoric suggests.

They won't let me reproduce

I have a lot of questions but the answer to those questions is probably incel bs so I'm not gonna start haha

That sounds extremely fake.

Do you have anything to back up this fever dream?

Apologies if this is the wrong community, happy to remove and post elsewhere.

I'm essentially a beginner to programming. I know some python (made a game of hangman with ASCII art for example) but nothing more complicated than that.

I've been wanting to learn some programming, whether it's python or something else, and I think I've decided on a project I want to make (if possible?).

I aiming to make an emulation front end/GUI selector. I know there are things like RetroArch that are great, but it doesn't have access to all emulation tools (e.g. doesn't have Xbox/PS2/switch).

I'd picture just opening one program GUI that can select the "system" you want to use, then it provides a list of games.

The complexity that I can see is that even if I can run the actual emulator in a container or use a custom GUI to open the emulator it won't 1) be able to show a games list within the same GUI and 2) it won't be an easy back and forth to change emulators.

Not looking for anyone to solve the problem for me, just hoping for some advice on where to start like languages and what I should be trying to learn etc. or if it's even possible. I'm aware there's a high chance it's not!

I've got years to learn and build before my kid might use it, not in a rush.

Thanks!

This makes way too much sense, don't know how I didn't see it before!

I grew up and lost all respect for Nate over something really trivial that made me realize he was full of BS. He said imperial measurements are better because you could say you ran "4 miles", he said saying you ran 3.2km would just sound stupid so why would you want metric? Does he think people in countries that use metric are agonising over having to round distances (just like imperial would the majority of the time) or wish they could express it in miles? Does he always run in exact mile increments every single time? Rant over but it made me irrationally mad. He might have been joking but didn't care enough to find out.

Thanks for the recommendations! I was already kind of considering switching to Fedora so Bazzite sounds good, although CachyOS sounds interesting too.

I feel like I'm getting performance below what I've been getting on windows for the same games when I'm booting in Linux. Top of the head example is COD WWII, the gameplay and cutscenes stagger a lot but runs fine on windows with the same hardware. I've checked that my graphics card is being used by Linux but I just feel like I'm missing some settings that would optimise it.

I'm running Linux mint with a NVIDIA GTX1070. I know there's some issues with NVIDIA and Linux but would that be the full reason?

What is the most beautiful song you've ever heard? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] frostprophet@infosec.pub 4 points 5 months ago

Ocean by John Butler is amazing

I'll probably think of some others and may update this as I think of them

When you're writing a song, how do you know it isn't just a song you've heard before but don't recognise? (infosec.pub)

I'm currently in the process of writing a song. I've got a tune and I'm putting the lyrics together but I'm always concerned that any tune I think of might just be another song I've heard somewhere randomly that I don't remember hearing.

Do I just have a shitty memory or is this a problem that other people have too?

What distro do you use and why? in c/linux@lemmy.world

[-] frostprophet@infosec.pub 2 points 11 months ago

Mint with GNOME

It just works and I like the look of it, never really like cinnamon for some reason

GrapheneOS often picks up security flaws in the android open source project and fixes them before google goes. I won't claim they fix everything but I've seen enough examples of things they fix over AOSP that make me doubt they wouldn't have fixed something like that (on top of keeping everything updated). Maybe you weren't referring to Graphene but still worth a shoutout for being a very (the most?) secure operating system.
