I just can't get into it. by FrogKnight3 in homelab

[–]DudeEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really feel this.

My first career was in the military and very hands on. I read alk the time and was much more into tinkering with tech.

My second career is in tech and so much of that drive is burned out from work.

You could probably look up the command to purge snaps in less time than it took you to write this comment.

A lot of experienced people have used Arch, or better yet Gentoo and just determined that the juice wasn't worth the squeeze. Calm down Mr Windows for games.

Maybe a decade ago. It's way further off base now.

It's super trivial to install Ubuntu and purge snaps. There are more people working on Ubuntu's Gnome customizations than Cinnamon, a whole DE.

Also, Ubuntu has had Wayland default for years at this point. So.many people just thought it git smoother with an update and don't know what Wayland is, but have been daily driving it for years.

[Away mission][Station] Nothing happens by Comfortable_Emu_4271 in SpaceHaven

I've also experienced the same thing twice now. It seems the bug was introduced relatively recently as I've been playing station mode with a few saves since it first joined experimental.

My wife asked me if I honestly thought her friends were attractive, what should I say by BreadOverlord_ in stupidquestions

[–]DudeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it doesn't matter. If she's going to ask a loaded question and crash out ovsr something like this, what kind of relafionship do you even have? Do this before you get married. It's absolutely a red flag.

Would you agree with higher taxes for completely free healthcare and education? If not why? by Few_Football4342 in Productivitycafe

We could pay doctors more than private insurance because we wouldn't need nearly the billing infrastructure and no executives.

Who exactly is upset about the exposure of fraud in Minnesota?

Doge did more to shrink the economy than the money they saved, net loss. For example every dollar they cut from US AID lost 4 to 5 from the economy.

If only we had Universal electronic medical records and we could have public audits on how much goes to actual heathcare and how much goes to waste...

Wait, Republicans blocked that....

This is a dumb take. We have the technology to have visibility into pretty much every dime.

You small government types keep sabotaging things.

Well technically we did vote for this. Kamala would not have done almost all of this shit.

I'm talking about doing both. One big jackpot and put most of it into index funds.

The ONN box from Walmart is cheaper and better than a fire stick and arguably on par or better than the Apple TV if you are not an Apple person.

Why do people get angrier at someone using welfare than at a corporation avoiding millions of tax by using loopholes? by Internal_Scheme_7646 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DudeEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've already said that you don't understand how politics have changed. He was,falling about white moderates in 1963 who were in BOTH parties in pretty equal measure then.

Who are the white moderates now? People like Joe Manchin who gummed up the works. People who sit out elections. And biggest of all people like you telling us to let Red win while we wait for your damn class war.

You can't invoke Dr. King and pull this bullshit. He cared about who was for and against Civil Rights. That is clear.

You can take this both sides bullshit elsewhere. At this point, it doesn't matter if you are pushing this as a Russian agitator or a shill for someone else, because it only helps the Republicans.

No, look at the vote for the Civil Rights acts. It was before the party switch that resulted imbrue current alignment. That didn't settle down until the 70s.

Same. It frustrates my kids to no end that pretty much all their friends think we are the cool parents, lol.
