Welll first you draw this head...

you know, I'm begining to think this whole "readiness" idea is completely arbitrary. The same people who today complain about linux's supposed difficulty, were just fine using their home micro-computer in the 80's. If you ask me, the only people who are defining what "ready" means, is Microsoft's marketing department.

This meme just threatened to undo the last 3 years of daily driving linux, by making me consider going back to windows

I know it's a meme, but I've never had this happen to me. What causes this?

This is such a non-issue

Electricity isn't free, and neither is it's impact on your computer hardware. The life expectancy of a circuit may reasonably be approximated as a function of watt-hours. this is why hardware manufactuers test their circuits in ovens: the heat simulates high wattage.

it doesn't matter if the power drain is low. So long as your computer is on, it's lifetime watt-hours are constantly ticking down.

We've come a long way. Once upon a time, It might've said "Linux is only free if you don't value your time."

guilty until proven innocent, for it is better that the innocent are condemed than for a guilty man go free. And should a trial be warranted, it shall be conducted not by jury, but by a tribunal of like-minded individuals.

they're live the perfect anti-libral.

I don't think performative politics is a FOSS community problem. It's more of an whole Internet problem.

Challenge: Lemmy users must express their shared interests separably from their politics. Difficulty: impossible
