Virtually anything you post on the internet is eternal. A better example would be your upvotes as they are also synchronized according to instance admins - something many people do not expect.

Lol, since the last major update I can’t type a tilde or a backtick, presumably because it doesn’t recognize my keyboard type?? And I had to install another program that prevent Apple Music from opening each time I connect/disconnect bluetooth headphones?? Or to add week numbers to the calendar widget. Even Gnome isn’t that bad.

Boost went open-source?

Because our brains are not wired for the modern complex world. Most decisions we make, we make thanks to heuristics that are heavily exploited by other people.

That is good, I believe. We are going to have different communities in different places with no reliance on a single platform.

If I am being honest, I haven’t considered this.

Yeah, but also people have very different ideas of what good life is, and what stops them from having it.

And it is more intelligent than an average voter too.

I don’t think that the distribution of system packages is the issue. People need a way to easily distribute and obtain everyday applications, and to keep them up to date in the same manner. Linus spoke about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pzl1B7nB9Kc

I would rather have a snap than building from source or use some tar.gz archive with a sketchy install script

I agree, but that sounds like false dichotomy to me because snap competes with flatpak.

Yep. When a dictator dies, it doesn’t necessarily lead to democracy and prosperity because the system is broken, and the next person simply assumes the absolute power.

It’s more funny/sad if you consider how successful chicken are from this point of view.

Fun fact: it isn’t named after him.

Yes. Arch Wiki probably has an article about this exact problem.

It’d be better to ask for the list of communities the person is subscribed to before the visit.

From propaganda and ignorance.

I don’t know what people expect from US presidents. Do they think they are watching Harry Potter or something? Do they expect him to wave his wand and solve all their problems? Go read about the other political branches and their roles. It’s ridiculous.

There is no effectively addressed, when we know the tested, studied, and actually implemented solutions.

They handled the post-covid period better than virtually any other major nation in the world. With no inflation, with a low unemployment rate, without a recession. But people voted for a guy who aims to impose tariffs. You can’t make this shit up.

That’s unrealistic. You think the fall of America is going to be a simple affair?

You think
