Printing on Linux
  • That's not been my experience.

    Granted, printers suuuuuck. But I was legit surprised when both the printing and scanning functions in Linux were hands down better than windows.

  • How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse
  • I'm not the angry autist that started the argument. He is indeed an angry autist. Doesnt change that he has at least one valid point. He is a dick though.

    That said, I agree with the initial sentiment he expressed, and including myself in it. The fact is there is a perception that Linux is complicated, and we aren't helping ourselves, since we dont explain shit.

    Linux does not solve OPs problem. Telling them to use Linux does not help them at all because its so far from how to actually get what they want and introduces so many new problems that its laughable.

    The fact that using Linux allows them to find workarounds to the specific problems is not a solution in and of itself, and holy shit are there still usability problems with Linux if you start doing anything slightly complicated, which it seems like OP is.

    Linux people be like:

    1. Draw a circle.
    2. Draw the rest of the owl
  • Does leaving a single board computer caseless can be a problem or not?
  • In all seriousness, its gonna depend. If it can survive minimal ventilation, throw a shoebox with some holes at it. You probably dont want it getting touched, but so long as its not, you're prolly fine.

  • How serious are you guys when you talk about punching nazis?
  • Nazis aren't interested in what communists have to say. A communist, for the record, is anyone a Nazi disagrees with. The only acceptable place for a communist, according to a nazi, is in the ground. If you want to let Nazis come for you, I guess that's fine for you. When Nazis co.e for your loved ones and you Stans there like a fucking coward and let them take them because "much precious nonviolence" I guess that's your call.

  • Locked Removed
    I guess even Elon has his limit
  • Libertarian ideology at work. "Fuck you, I have money" or "I dont want poor gay or black people dying in the streets cause they are black or gay. I want them dying in the streets cause they're poor."

  • I want an AI TV that blocks all forms of advertising.
  • Or, and hear me out, you could say "portable fax" and be done with it. YOU are making it complicated by not being culturally acclimated to the timeframe when it was written. Everyone knew what faxes were, no explanation was necessary.

    Portable fax: thing that sends and receives messages

    Portable Fax IS how you describe SMS in the 80s.

    I dont mean that your understanding is unimportant, but that you inherently understand what's being described to a degree that to hear it described differently than you expect you reject what you hear in favor of assuming the folks in the 80s needed more than "portable fax" to understand what you are on about.

  • Gold Star father Khizr Khan endorses Harris for president
  • You say all that and manage to miss that R doesnt just not have progressive goals, it has regressive goals. This is you right now: "hey everyone, Democats are as bad (or.maybe worse cause we dont know everything they are lying about) as the republicans. You shouldn't participate in national politics." Literally everyone knows Harris and waltz are liars. You're not bringing anything helpful to the table here, and it just makes you sound.. Well... Stupid. Sometimes the "w" is just "fine let's at least try to get abortion rights in the constitution" ormaybe "yay the people that PUBLISHED their plan to destroy the constitution and prop up project 2025 didn't get voted in!"

  • Inside of you, there are two political theorists you must kill to be a good person
  • Can you share context? Chompsky is pretty focused on US politics, and genocide elsewhere may be a "not my bad, man. I talk about US politics, and am not gonna spend time on a situations where the US isn't involved" which would be a reasonable reason to avoid the topic, or were they "f those guys, the power behind it is anti american."

    The only info I can find is that he cagey about callkn something "genocide" in case its not the actual definition. Check his takes on the Uyghurs, he seems to want to be able to fully establish what's occurring before labelling it genocide.

  • I legitimately want to run Linux as my desktop OS, please tell me how to meet my requirements.
  • Tell me you didn't read the post without telling me you didn't read the post.

    Requirement 3) My job really doesn't require much more than Office and a browser, but it requires very heavy use of those things. Firefox is fine for the browser, so no trouble there, but I need full fledged Outlook, OneNote and most of the features of Excel at a minimum. [...] I will not be able to live with only the browser versions, that I'm 100% sure of.

  • Who are the six Israeli hostages whose bodies were found in Gaza?
  • Oof you're a tool. Here's some.context: https://www.npr.org/2024/01/04/1222813493/what-will-it-take-for-israel-to-affirm-mission-accomplished-in-gaza-and-end-the-

    That's 8 months old and everyone alreadt knew the hostages were just a political token benji was using to genocide the local ethnic minority.

    Go ahead and your head out of your ass and play catch up with the rest of us. The powers that be dont give a shit about the hostages. Lol
