I know someone already showed a screenshot but I also want to mention it is file EFTA01013384 if you want to search for it in the Epstein Library.

While Debian is my preferred distro, I wouldn’t reccomend it to others unless they are techy and don’t mind fiddling with things. I absolutely wouldn’t reccomend it to my grandma (I would reccomend her Mint though) and probably not to someone who just wants to play games, especially if they have an Nvidia card. I do game on Debian with a 3060, but it was cumbersome getting stuff working properly because of old drivers. I did get it working, but I think most people just want to play their games and not deal with that. I also have a nearly 10 year old laptop with Debian, and since it’s so old, everything does, “just work”, but I imagine most people aren’t also using the same 10 year old laptop.

It takes me forever to write just a simple email, but if I have a task related to one of my special interests (plants and tech) I can easily and quickly get it done. There are also certain tasks that are seemingly boring to others that are engaging to me (usually it’s stuff that’s repetitive).

Easiest way to explain privacy imo is simply just saying: “If you have nothing to hide, then why do you shut the door when you go to the bathroom?”

This country has caused a great deal of harm that deserves much stronger condemnation than ICE killing a couple Americans.

Why should the innocent people being murdered by ICE be punished because of the US’s crimes?

That’s like saying Holocaust victims deserved it because of Germany’s crimes.

It doesn’t make any sense.

You are correct.

There are good people and bad people in every country. Yes, the US government is bad. Yes, the Russian government is bad. That does not mean every person in those countries are also bad.

There are people in Russia trying their best to resist Putin. People risk their lives doing that and people have died doing that.

There are also people here in the US doing their best to resist fascism. Here too, people have died doing that.

It is unreasonable to expect every American to oppose fascism, just like it is unreasonable to expect that of every Greenlander. Remember there is a small percentage of Greenlanders who do support Trump.

Opposing fascism is difficult, dangerous, and slow. It takes a long time for change to happen. Think about all the bad governments out there. I’m sure that for each one you can find resistance to them that has been around for a long time.

So if the situation was flipped, would you want us to make a post complaining about Greenlanders apologizing?

Alternatively you can also right click, press Inspect, and then edit the HTML, which will look perfect and also not actually change anything.

Kinda difficult to do when you’re autistic but yeah. I have gotten a few interviews at least but no job offers.

I graduated college last year and I’m still in unemployment hell. I have a CS degree so now I’m too overqualified for retail and too underqualified for tech jobs, despite the fact that I have made numerous projects and have tried my best to upskill, I’m still not good enough apparently. It is super frustrating and demotivating to wake up to rejection emails month after month after month.

OK thanks! Wasn’t sure if you were aware or where to post about issues, but I also didn’t want to just leave it.

The brain differences are extremely minor and as far as I understand it, the brain differences aren’t exclusive either.

This is a study I read a while back. I just skimmed it because I don’t have time to reread it right now, but it looks at brains as a mosiac instead of being on a continuum.

Croc 2! I love him so much.

Basically yeah

I don’t think she is referring to what the pictures are of, but rather that the ambiance of the pictures invoke horror. Like the harsh lighting and camera angles make it seem like it could be from a horror game or movie. While they are just pictures of a house, they still feel strange.

I claim it is a corporate problem because of things such as Meta detecting when a teen girl deleted a selfie and then showing her beauty ads.

Also these kids are going to get older, go on social media, and then have the same problems. But because they are older it seems like people don’t care about them anymore.

Also social media is really useful for minorities, such as queer people, to find community and support which is especially important if they happen to have bad parents or live in an unsupportive area.

I very well might have killed myself when I was a teen if it wasn’t for support I received from people online. Social media isn’t the problem. It’s the predation by the execs who want to squeeze out every penny they can that is. A youth ban doesn’t fix anything. What we actually need is regulation on the companies (not the users) and easier access to mental health resources.

My nearly 13 year old beagle was put down last week. I didn’t want to put him down and I cried for a long time both before and after. He had Cushing’s disease and he got to the point where he could no longer walk or stand. He stopped being interested in food and he stopped responding to his name and things happening around him.

If we didn’t put him down I don’t think he would have lived much longer and he probably would have died in pain. When dogs are euthanized they give them a sedative and he looked extremely peaceful before he passed away.

The way I see it is that everything has an end. It’s just a part of existence that you have to accept. While I am extremely sad that he passed away, I am also extremely happy that he existed and that he was my dog.

When I was in kindergarten they showed us a cartoon with anthropomorphic teeth to try to encourage dental hygiene and those teeth scared me so much that I refused to brush my teeth for years and I ended up getting gum disease because of it.
