Hah. Fucking nothing better to do? We in the USA need to deal with our highest courts taking away women's bodily autonomy, but over there they are clearly focused on the real issues.
Nonetheless, the best thing would be to let those kinds of fans do what they do, because it is free advertising. But no, they'd rather be right than pragmatic, so they shoot themselves in the foot. Meanwhile, if they're so worried that these guys have that kind of serious reach and influence - aren't those the people they shouldn't piss on??
I don't really think it matters that much. The more of the community you alienate and spit in their faces for loving you, the more youngsters will be given something else to play because their dad wants to see Nintendo burn.
Wow! Way to tell the world to never buy your products because you're petty sniveling greedy and absolutely hate your fans.
What meds have you just tossed back with a bourbon chaser? You are the one going off the deep end, fella. I merely stated my opinion about something from a purely legal-reasoning perspective and this person got all in a huff and ranted at me - not comprehending what I had said. And now you’re doubling down on that person’s incredulity and outrage. And the sad part is that evidently neither of you have grasped my one very distinct point, and instead have inferred some huge argument in which I never partook.
Really folks, please stay off the really heavy substances when conversing online. You’re both acting like screaming petulant children. I suspect I’m older than you both combined, no surprise there.
Please just let this die. Nobody is making the effort to read thoroughly and ASK to understand what I had been saying, instead you continue with your incorrect assumptions and attack those assumptions. That’s called a straw man argument, and you both could fill a scarecrow field.
You are arguing from an emotional perspective, and also bulldozing in a handful of unrelated topics that you clearly need to rant about. I am not saying I necessarily disagree with you on the specifics, but I was commenting purely from a legal reasoning standpoint. That is a very specific and distinctive principle, or I should say, set thereof. I have heard your type of argument a thousand times, and I am not saying you are WRONG, but I am saying you are not speaking in terms of law, but that of emotional reaction.
It's fine, I don't want to argue with you.. My initial comment was one kind of discussion, and you're arguing an entirely different kind.

Most editing software can blur faces. Problem solved.
OK see maybe you need to go to school and learn how law works. You can't have punishments vary based on the merit of the victim.
Here it's Target, a rich company, somewhere else it's a private citizen being stolen from, or a small family business, or a charity. The punishment as a deterrent needs to be based on the act alone, and not your personal lack of sympathy for the victim.
Sorry but the real world doesn't treat law the way you seem to think.
Just don’t buy the cheap pieces of crap at the checkout counter at 7Eleven, or the ones from China that are 25¢ per dozen on Amazon, and you’re probably okay. Get a recognized brand one on sale or closeout etc.
I don’t think they want to publicize every aspect, since this would likely give a distasteful kind of vibe. Doesn’t mean they don’t do it. I’m not saying they do, but not including it in an exposé is not exactly conclusive that it’s false. Am I making sense?
Yea it contributes to widen the conversation so, yeah not a direct answer, but it has value in this kind of forum. I’m cool with it.
If it’s consecutive incidents of the same transgression it think it’s seen as a spree, like one crime carried out in pieces. It makes sense from a legal reasoning point of view.
Not for nuthin’ but I’d subscribe to that channel!
Jeez. In that case it wasn’t someone poor just trying to get by, she was running a business. She sold the merchandise.
Does anyone else feel like 3 years is way too lenient? That kind of greedy shit should send the person away for like a decade.
I initially misunderstood also. He didn’t mean tv service he meant an actual tv.
Unless he didn’t and everyone else misunderstood.
It’s the Rent-A-Center demographic they’re targeting, my friend.
Once upon a time I’m pretty sure all Brother printers were manufactured by Lexmark. That was back when Brother’s flagship products were their label makers. Which are still terrific. I have one that I still occasionally use.
But I think at some point it changed? Not sure. Most people I have known that had Brother printers would always say they were fine, satisfactory. A nice mid-range and mostly reliable product.

Hey all,
Want to know what are my options for example, Lineage 18, or AOSP Android, or something else. The reason I want to do this is it has Android 5 and there's just too much that won't work on it. Also I want more control as in remove junk I don't want, move apps to SD, etc. Not have stuff run and waste CPU and RAM.
If anyone has specific knowledge about this device and what's the best option, or even tell me what any given option offers best, that would be very much appreciated.

I don’t need it to be with zero effort, but most of the instructions I find these days on XDA forums are extremely ambiguous and assume the reader is someone who does this every day and therefore knows most of the steps and what the terminology means.
Years ago when I used to do stuff like this more, directions were written meticulously and without abridgment of any elements. Seems today it’s not common for someone to go to the effort.
I’m extremely proficient, that’s not the issue. It’s just most instructions say stuff like “Step 1: root the phone. Step 2…” I’m like “whoa excuse me… how do I root this phone?”
Anyway, so all I’m asking is are there just comprehensive directions for any of these.
Hey all,
I want a firewall app for just basically to enforce restrictions on outgoing communication based on service or app. It is mostly to block data harvesting. For reference, if anyone remembers there was one for iPhone called Firewall IP and it was just perfection. That was back when we could jailbreak.
Anyway, so that's all I need. Free is best, of course, but I would pay a bit if it is an exceptionally good product. No problem paying for quality. But I will have no interest in anything that's subscription based, nor anything that I need some kind of backend "approval" or login in order to install and use it. In other words, I want to know that if in a hundred years I happen to have a working phone from today, and the apk file, then I can install it. Obviously that's reductoi ad absurdum but you get my point.
Thanks for any recommendations. P.S. I'm not rooted, if that matters. Although I am still interested in possibly getting a replacement ROM for my device.
So I was recently talking about a few phones I had bought used, which have FRP lockout. So, the one I was talking about working on at the time is a Galaxy J7 Sky Pro. Well I finally used DroidKit on it, and after a moderately lengthy procedure, it is FREE of the lockout! So the software is not a scam, it actually did work.
I have been having trouble with another phone because when it gets to the stage where it needs to dial \#0\# it supposed to bring up the factory mode to test various components. I’ve seen this on other phones work but this one, a Galaxy A01, it doesn’t bring up that mode. And it can’t continue. Another phone I have is a ZTE and that’s not one of the supported brands in Droidkit.
But one worked! Which means likely it’s fairly reliable. So that’s cool.

Is it supposed to be like a dock? I’m using Nova Launcher and then I found the Edge Panel and it is a bit much but for those who use the default launcher is that the idea?
Hi all,
Okay so my Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has arrived. I did some searching and it seems like there are a million options as far as replacing / hacking the rom.
So, all I want to do is have root access, and be rid of any bloat that’s built in. I prefer whatever is most tried and true, and whatever does not have any iffy components still. Like, I want everything to function without glitches, I want to get the most out of my hardware, and other than that, I really don’t want a 100-step process.
So, recommends? What’s available that’s very reliable and what does it offer me?
(Eg: GSI+Root, Lineage, Havoc, et al)
I appreciate any advice. Thank you.
Hey all, I was about to setup uBlock Origin in chromium, when I saw the notice that it may soon be ended due to not following best practices, etc. I looked this up and some articles and posts state that Chrome is discontinuing content blockers / ad blockers soon. Will this apply to the chromium app in Linux?
Other than for testing purposes, my usage of Chromium is for the ability to make some sites into webApps. I just like some to be isolated with their own window and icon. The standard response I see to pretty much anyone is that they should switch to Firefox and stop wanting the webApp. I saw some comments that Firefox does not and will not implement webApps due to some security issues (?? not sure why). I don't understand how it is difficult just make a standalone window with a custom icon choice. I see no reason that has to compromise anything at all, but I am not a developer.
I'm getting off-track here. So, is Chromium going to go the way Google wants it to go for Chrome? It was my understanding that Chromium is kind of an offshoot and not just up to Google in terms of its course. Will we be able to use extensions that Google doesn't want, and have to get them from a new repository instead of the chrome web store?
Any insight on this would be appreciated, thanks.

Hey, so I know you can tap on a dock icon to launch the app, but when the dock is more than full and requires scrolling to shift the icons, this still cannot be done with the touch screen, based on docks I have tested. I tried the built in docks in Gnome on Pop, Ubuntu, and also Plank. None respond to an attempted drag via the touch screen.
Are there any less widely known ones that do? Are there any plans to bring this functionality to the dock in Gnome?
I got this RCA Reno it’s sluggish but in excellent condition, so I’m wondering if I could do any hacking to it to make it more smoothly operable.
Hey folks,
So, I have an old school iPod I got from someone it’s sweet and I want to put my music on it. Is there a decent app in Linux that will be able to do the sync of music? Or is it able to be just copied to like an external drive?
Hi all, I just wanted to say hello. I’m an adult and came to realize in the past few years only that I’m probably on the spectrum given some of my tendencies. When I was a kid there was no label autism other than the most extreme cases. As it turns out, my son - late teens - is on the spectrum and also has ADHD. He struggles with a variety of aspects but he’s also strong and insightful. He learns about himself more all the time, and I also have the benefit of being able to relate to some of his challenges.
So I just thought I’d say hi; very glad to have discovered this community.
I’m around most of the time to comment or converse.
Best wishes to everyone, and I’m hoping to have some rewarding conversations in the future.
PlayOnLinux will allow you to play your favorite games on Linux easily
Hello all, In a previous installation I was able to successfully use PlayOnLinux to run a few Windows apps. My most recent system, though, is not liking it. Currently on Kubuntu 24.04
WINE is present and up to date. However, when I tried to install PON from either Discover, or using APT, the app crashes immediately. I never even get to the GUI. I read on the page for the app in Discover, numerous others complain about this exact problem.
Anyone know about this and how to resolve it?
I included the link to the app's website because there are numerous versions and it states you need to use the correct one. I don't know what those different variables mean, so could someone please advise? (deb files, Cosmic, Trusty, Bionic, Xenial.... etc. I don't understand these).

Thank you to anyone who can assist.
Yeah, so I have a notebook with Kubuntu 24.04. I have Night Control setup for warmer color 8:00PM-8:00AM
Oftentimes I go to the computer to do something and I see it is in the wrong mode. I’ve not seen any pattern it’s just arbitrarily not switching over.
My lid close action is just turn off screen; no sleep mode (problems). So usually I am opening the lid and start to use the machine and then notice this.
Is this a known issue? Or does anyone else have this problem?

I only ever played Rygar a little one summer but I remember it very fondly. I’d love to play it on my Linux laptop if possible. I saw on wiki there was an Android port at some point - I’d ideally like the NES incarnation.
