You appear much more knowledged about taxes then i am.

What way can a laymen worker lobby effectively?

How do i somehow fit all three of these?

I propose that once Kamala officially assumes the position and we can ignore demented Hitler again we do our best to yeet her straight back out the Whitehouse.

We have to start getting actually mad, but in such a way where we keep thinking clearly and do not expose ourselves to emotional manipulation.

If you are an American and not a Harris votes, what do you expect will happen to political power in the next year?

Are peacefully voting against a dictator, general strikes and forcefully guillotining the bourgeoisie all mutually exclusive?

If you haven’t, give nick mason’s saucerfull of secrets a spin.

Their version of controls for the hearth that i heard live was absolutely transcendental.

Id freak out about having to make a choice and then just blurt out souvlaki space station because it seems like a safe bet of sm i like at high volumes.

Did they test for other expressions of neurodivergence like dyslexia?

I recognize this may be a very autistic answer (i am)

The function of a button is to be pressed, to put functionality on the bottom of a stationary device feels incredibly wrong. Thats really all there is to it.

I can forgive a reset button being on the bottom because ideally they aren’t ever pressed and you definitely don’t want them accidentally pressed. I recognize that for macos a restart is usually a reset troubleshooting step and i would be probably be fine with it the button was renamed with an explanation on its actual usecase scenario.

In any regards i feel like it makes much more sense on the back where the cables go in.

I have nothing against apple besides the general capitalist/consumerism stuff. I hate google and meta much more.

This is why some things are trade secrets rather then trademarked.

Only very few people in the world know the coca cola recipe. Legally your free to recreate it and sell. Good luck though knowing that the company has an exclusive contract to process cocaïne leaves into flavoring extract. (The narcotic byproduct sold to phrama)

No horror can scare me except the 6 am siren of hell dragging me out of my slumber into an ordinary bus to work.

You can accurately preach best usecases all you want it falls flat before peopled experience.

I always shutdown my desktop. So did i with all my previous desktops.

Ive always shut down every windows/linux laptop i ever had.

I shut down my android tablet after use.

I owned and mainly used a MacBook pro for 5 years, i never shut it down, i never shutdown my iPhone. It was also ironically the best windows laptop i had owned at that point (in dual boot) and i always shut down when i worked in Windows, just never in macos

Apple did not tell me to do this, it is not difficult to shutdown a mac, no one told me to change what i am used to. It just somehow made the most sense so thats how i used it. And i reverted naturally when i ent back to non apple desktops. I cant explain it better then that.

This does not excuse having a power button on the bottom, thats just ridiculous. Just a hint that what your saying about downsides is irrelevant to how people realistically use it.

I thing what Democrats are conserving in simply the status quo of society.

They want politics to be about electing a party with votes, districts

They want banks to organize money.

They want corporations to employ people.

They want schools to be about preparing kids for work and freeing adults to do labor.

They want the global appearance of their finances look good. (GDP)

They want to be against war and violence except if it is in their own benefit.

They want to not care about existential issues like climate change.

I am not saying here that all of the above are overdue change but more and more appears fundamentally broken and there is no ambition for real change.

As a fellow member of the autistic species, i wholeheartedly agree.

You do sound like a person knowledge enough to solve their own issues and you have been trying linux so I wouldn’t lump you in with the majority of users that believe that all of linux requires terminal knowledge.

I let you in on a secret. I still have my windows drive in dual boot. I was very scared of linux, i just saw a hyprland gif and fell in love. As a windows poweruser i could not fully commit on that whim.

I have not booted into it in months and i use the same drive to install proton games. (So i can theoretically launch them from both sides) but i do plan to keep it there, just in case. At least for as long as i use that machine.

So by all means you are pretty much as much a limux user as i am, the only difference is with what os we dedicate time.

Recently i got into a powershell course from work and i know you can use 7 on unix, but i am actually thinking of spinning up some windows vm. My work is all windows so i do need to keep up. And there are good things i could say about it.

But i have a personal drive to learn linux, rooted in the philosophy of technological freedom, unrestricted by corporate whims. One day i hope to truly leave windows for a foss new world (does not need to be linux) and i hope sincere that on your own time, you will also join me there.

Well spotted, thank you friend. Edited.

Actually reality check.

Toddlers perception of the world is much smaller.

Princess is just a word for wearing a pretty dress. Just like a knight is anyone with a blade.

And also that both of these may potentially ride horses.

“Being something when they are grown” is a thought put onto them by an adult.

If you are close enough to the child to have discussions with them there is still time to educate them when they are older.

Of course most people understand this and this is just a meme, i am just bored.

There is not enough time for a revolution before the election.

Reality is people will have to make a choice D/R or neither. No matter how they chose there will be either a D or R in political power.

If you have a proposition that will actually guarantee a different outcome i am willing to listen…

My personal take is to wait till the second this power game is over and hard dictatorship is avoide. start then. At the very least you will have many more people willing to join. Currently your just hurting the credibility of your own cause.

Honestly the only people worried about learning a new OS are people that have not even tried another OS for longer then 15 minuts in the last few years.

The desktop is still a desktop so is the taskbar.

The mouse works like a mouse, browser works like a browser and the majority of apps these days are browser apps.

The single actual difference i can think off is that rather then downloading an exe you use something similar to an appstore if your non technical or the command line if you don’t.

And if you are just a little technical you can acutely download that exe and install/run it just fine. (Wine)

Agreed but the chance those tracks will be destroyed before the election is slim.

I applaud your call to activism but in reality much less people will ever commit to fighting for their ideals that way.

Many more people will however are willing to give a token to a “right cause”

Voting D is that token. It doesn’t fix shit, especially considering the genocide but it will be a slower decline of human rights then the alternative.

More time to do activism.

There are many others, also on lemmy that are not calling for activism but for a token of not voting. I think the meme is a representation of that particular logic.

Sure i’ll have a look at decentralized certificate authorities options.

Very possibles to adapt my idea to whatever technology provides those function honestly.

The only actual connection i have with blockchain is that reading about it when it was new directly inspired in me a possible way to combat fake news.
