Seriously though.

Bought an old second-hand Brother printer a while ago and couldn’t be happier.

Model is like 10 years old, yet all spare parts and cartridges as well as just toner are readily available and the printer is perfectly fine (damn how precise laser printers are!).

They just make it happen.

Please elaborate

You can always be vocal about why you didn’t vote Democrat. Voting does not mean you are restricted from saying who you voted for, protesting their decisions, and organizing.

“Less terrible of the two” is a path to gradually degrade the rights and quality of life for everyone.

If Dems are not forced to change, we won’t see much improvement. For as long as they’re not pressured by anything but literal fascism, they’re better off serving their sponsors than their own electorate.

A fairly small percentage of Democratic voters vocally saying “fuck you” is enough to force Dems to either change and finally deliver on their promises or lose. Let’s hope they’ll be able to do the former.

Granted. Now everyone rolls back to Tobu - Candyland

One important and vocalized point is to hold Democrats accountable for their actions. This isn’t limited to genocide.

Because as things stand, Dems can get away with anything as long as they are marginally less terrible than Republicans. And as the goalposts move every time, situation gets worse and worse.

Voting third party might force Democrats to actually implement changes they propose in order to attract more third party voters to ultimately win the election.

Blocklist member detected.

Seriously, we should collect such nicknames in a convenient list so that everyone would block you as they register.

People like you bring 0 useful contribution and only make this place shittier.

I wonder what amounts of crowd mentality and brain stew is required to make someone equate two radical opposites.

Assuming bad faith over everyone who disagrees with you is a first step to fanaticism and vulnerability to external opinion.

Weaponizing tribe mentality to reach your goals is very bad long-term, and makes yourself susceptible to the same trap.

Lemmy, unfortunately, is very prone to that. Remember that time people called here for Biden to step down and were downvoted into oblivion? Where were they when he actually stepped down and everyone started cheering for Harris all of a sudden?

There are valid reasons to NOT vote for the Democratic party in these elections, even if you clearly don’t side with the Republicans.

I personally have little issues with systemd (okay, services can stall sometimes, true), but I appreciate brave minds who use other init systems and keep the variety for us to enjoy should we want to.

Just mentioned it as one of the few controversies surrounding Debian :D But then, on the other hand, there’s Devuan for those folks as well…

I actually prefer the start menu of Windows 10 and appreciate KDE going a similar way on Linux

I think Windows 10 has nailed it UI/UX-wise.

Too bad they enshittified it into oblivion.

Debian is independent, OG, a base of so many distros, it is objectively the most stable Linux in existence, it has its own libre kernel…what’s not to love?

Ah, right.

systemd.

Making ice cream with actual apples involved is a nightmare due to acidity influencing other ingredients. But making it apple-scented is trivial.

But you raised a very good question…

Everyone’s focused on whether Jesus can do it or not while completely forgetting regular people can do that

Just, remove the water, c’mon.

Which is actually said in the original article

Thanks!

Decided not to stir it, probably

UN is often about grand messages and general directions. It’s not always about forcing direct action - which might be a shame, but UN ain’t almighty.

He does directly state the latter.
