Nothing, i’m just saying that most people don’t understand this and don’t know that their individual skills with a firearm just won’t matter much if you don’t organize into a proper group with modern vehicles at your disposable.

Point is, if you wanna go down the route of “I need 2A for an oppressive government”, you’ll quickly find yourself getting into the same situation as everyone else. Unless you form a side via a civil war, you’re gonna suffer heavy losses in the initial stage just like everyone else, and commit to long term attrition just like everyone else.

Not saying it’s a bad idea in any way, but there’s a significant portion of the American community that I could not imagine being able to walk 10k despite stockpiling a platoon’s worth of ammo.

Gulf War 1 was literally the king of all curbstomps and the Taliban fell just as fast to a swarm of CAS, even though they had the NWA completly surrounded.

Only Vietnam survived because surprise surprise they had a hefty mechanized supply line provided by the USSR via China.

Gulf 2 and the aftermath in Afghanistan was still a ridiculously long occupation that all hinged on the idea that the US no longer had any meaningful interest to commit resources and would eventually leave.

IFVs exist for this exact purpose and they typically have minimum 1 per tank if not 2.

You ain’t gonna get very far when theres a 25mm auto cannon spraying and praying in your general direction.

Plus the coaxial 7.62 MGs

Plus the hull mounted M2 .50 cal MGs.

Why do you think separatists and resistance movements have to rely on IEDs and forcing fights in urban environments with a metric ton of cover available?

Why do you think they get steamrolled by mechanized armored units like almost every time that forces them into guerilla fighting tactics like digging tunnels and using mountainous terrain?

I grew up on D-pad and mouse so any of my controll skills fly out the window when given a c-stick.

Love gyro aim though lol. More akin to a mouse.

Its actually wild seeing the critic reviews sitting at 8% with the “verified user” score at 99%.

Usually they pay off both groups lol.

Wow I guess I get to finally dump Discord as my last proprietary chat app.

There are lots of self hosted alternatives like Mattermost, Mumble, and Matrix (decentralized).

There’s also the new Freenet River demo: https://freenet.org/quickstart/

Maybe I’ll make my own discord clone lol.

No sweat, try mirroring a private tracker and you’ll very quickly run out lol. You need a couple of petabytes worth.

The real problem is the price of HDDs not going down due to lower production in light of SSDs.

I fully expect WD to drop this as some stupidly expensive SAS drives that almost no consumer will buy. They should at least apply the dual heads for speed tech so we get faster HDDs for the same price.

There’s probably a nice shell multiline command that does what you want lol. cat + awk unique count + sort

I’m just forgetting is there’s an easy way to keep the line numbers or filename so you can easily go back to the full page reference.

4 days?

Took me 4 seconds to realize I can actually use the super key and have my start menu pop up instantly and not watch it struggle to load 50 ads and tell me to download candy crush

Ask Pakistan for their professional coup-ing assistance /s

Yeah I can’t wait for these to drop as $2000 SAS HDDs that are somehow more expensive than NVME SSDs of the same capacity.

Very critical. GNOME and KDE have two very different UX paradigms.

Usually people used to Windows opt for KDE, and Mac or older Ubuntu users opt for GNOME.

The thing is though, a golden standard DE can easily be setup to act as both. XFCE is so customizable that I’ve seen both DE types setup as UNIX like or Windows like workflow.

I’m not sure if KDE or GNOME can do the same because I’m pretty sure they focus on a target audience.

What are your issues with KDE exactly? I always hated GNOME’s lack of standard window buttons and handling multiple windows in a Mac like fashion. Also the app menu which gives me flashbacks of ChromeOS.

Not only is it SNL, its the weekend update without Norm

Pretty straightforward actually, plenty of distros even ship their own USB flasher tool so that you don’t have to use rufus.

Definitely step by step instructions available and even official videos now.

There’s barely any actual 4K content you can consume.

Ironically there actually is if you bother pirating content because that’s the only crowd that will share full 4k Dolby Vision + Dolby Atmos/DTS-X BluRay rips.

Aside from that though, even 4k gaming is a struggle because GPU vendors went into the deep end of frame generation, which also coincidentally is the same mistake lots of TV OEMs already made.

tbf to this thread, wayland wasn’t really viable until 2023.

I made an existing comment on this that people didn’t like because I pointed out that most of Wayland’s “modern upgrades” like VRR, HDR, etc were unimplemented or unfinished for years. Even HDR is still “beta” on KDE iirc.

People also like to pretend the triple buffer wasn’t a can of worms for many users for a very long time (and still is on low power devices).

I bought one of these 64GB packs for less than $50 not even a year ago

People talking about history without mentioning the laziest answer is to use an alias, which bash usually has ll = la -la or my personal preference is ll = ls -lAh (list + Everything except . and .. + human readable file size)

If lemmy had a shared tag system, and easier way would be for automod to tag new users and auto delete posts from users that delete themselves.

That way everyone would know its a new user posting and could just choose to take the post with skepticism.
