Frank Lloyd Wright’s been dead for over half a century, buddy. Who’s shilling for him?

The United States has invaded more countries than anyone else.

Britain would like a word…

(Or do you think the folks they invaded don’t count because their societies weren’t organized in the white definition of “countries?”)

This is what small claims court is for.

That is not the solution. The solution is to never buy anything from them again and for the guy whose order was cancelled to sue them for specific performance (+ court costs, obviously) and for the government to issue punitive fines.

That was the big controversy about TikTok right from the beginning.

I would genuinely love to find a job coding FORTRAN, mainly because it means I’d almost certainly be doing some kind of scientific computing. Way better than most tech jobs that involve boring CRUD work you don’t care about at best, or actively making the world worse implementing the whims of some billionaire sociopath at worst.

No way a cat would sell for enough to afford RAM, no matter how cute it is.

The main difference I had in mind is that Google devices let you root and erase them to run stuff like Lineage OS or Graphene OS, and Samsung devices don’t.

(Samsung also puts ads on their TVs and deliberately and blatantly designes their appliances to fail just outside warranty. I will never buy anything from that company again, with the possible exception of components like RAM ICs that get incorporated into some other brand’s product. But even then I’ll try to check for and avoid it because that’s the level of petty revenge Samsung deserves!)

I’ve been playing games on [K]Ubuntu just for almost a decade now. There are no excuses, and haven’t been for a long time.

I’m permabanned from !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world because I got provoked into complaining about the rules in the pinned thread for discussing the rules. I never said I didn’t intend to follow them anyway! Absolute bullshit power-tripping.

I’m sure it’d be fine.

Fedora if he’s not gaming.

Bazzite if he’s gaming. Or CachyOS.

Specs are a 9800X3D and a 9070XT. He’s definitely gaming.

Or if he isn’t, he bought the wrong computer.

The second question is easier: I’m way more opinionated about preferring KDE than I am about which distro to use.

Based on what I’ve heard about Bazzite I’d pick it over Fedora for your friend, but I’ve always used Debian-based distros so I can’t speak from experience.

As a mod of !fuckcars@lemmy.world, I’m kinda upset about the “filter out obscenities” part.

I resorted to fuckin’ building my own thermometer because I was so fed up with proprietary crap.

The ironic thing is that Samsung is even worse than Google for users’ rights, and has been for a long time.

Fuck off with your cherry-picking bullshit. Bush was indeed terrible, but even then he wasn’t in the same league as Trump in terms of corruption or tyranny.

Again, the fact remains that you’re trying to normalize fascism, which makes you fucking evil. You lose; end of.

Nice of him to abdicate and cede the mainland to China’s rightful democratic government.

Liar.
