I’m sure that they have just as I’m sure that they aren’t.

To my knowledge upgrading to the newer release of any of those linux distros did not cost any money to the users, either.

I’ve got three and I’ve been trying to grow each from seed:

1. Dawn Redwood because it has an incredible backstory, it is a true redwood contrary to popular belief, and It easily grows where I’m at.
2. Giant Sequoia because they are massive, it is also a true redwood, and it can allegedly grow where I’m at.
3. Cedar of Lebanon because I grew up in one of the many U.S. towns of Lebanon named for the trees as referenced in that religious book and I remember the original Cedar of Lebanon referenced in that story I linked.

Unfortunately, I can’t get the Giant Sequoias past a few inches tall while even acknowledging their infamous 20% germination rate. The Cedar of Lebanon seeds I can’t even get to germinate but I also haven’t found as much academic literature on cultivating them from seeds.

Shoutout to the Ginkgo Biloba for being one of the OG trees, also.

hey, that’s the same time I stopped sharing new content, though it took 4 more years before I officially deleted my FB account. By that point i was checking it only once every three months.

He alludes to sanctions being a factor but never clarifies on advice from his lawyers. ngl I don’t like the look of it just from a transparency perspective.

it’s an outlier for sure. I don’t think I have a specific use-case for it as a distro but I do find it more respectable than Android.

it’s an alternative to GNU/Linux proposed by Richard Stallman. I use it because I don’t want to write out as much and I still want to differentiate from my use of Android’s OS which is also technically Linux but it’s not GNU.

I was formally studying Software Development before I came here, and yeah, I’ve been a sort of techie for the better part of 24 years. Been a LiGNUx user for probably a combined 18 years. If it wasn’t for FOSS I probably would have lost interest long ago, because when I recently tried out some new hobbies I was shocked as I was reminded how much other basic activities cost to seriously engage in. I also happened to migrate from that other website you mentioned, but that’s not important. I really wanted to simply find other forums that weren’t based on one centralized website. Lemmy is kind of a compromise with that for me.

Even if you don’t have a Verizon version initially, when you switch over to them as a carrier, they may push an update to your phone thatt locks the owner out of a bunch of features.

I discovered this when my unlocked Galaxy S8 was moved fron Consumer Cellular to Verizon. -It sucks that after 20+ years they still have better coverage.

I could swear there was a wildly similar version of this particular comic that was even more on point with reference to assembly call codes.

I remember seeing that on the shelf next to a copy of SuSe during my regular visits to CompUSA. I had just barely developed an interest in computer gaming at the time, still a few years prior to my first experience with LiGNUx. I always wondered when it turned into Fedora and Red Hat went exclusively enterprise.

I’ve had two. If there’s an infection and the dentist get’s a person on antibiotics several days beforehand, then the procedure has a pretty limited amount of pain. Usually less pain than a typical filling. As others have pointed out, the local anesthetic shots are often the gardest parts which aren’t that bad. Don’t avoid the local anesthetic. If you need more, speak up. Basically, if you can handle a few seconds of being pinched then a root canal is no problem. There are also bad dentists out there.

lucky.

I really would prefer them to go after Amazon and Apple before Google, or at least all of them at once.

I have a Gazelle12 from 2018 and it’s chassis is dogshit, but when I did my research before purchasing I saw a lot of reviews. They all pointed out that the case was made of flimsy plastic, so I was aware ahead of time of that potential problem. The Oryx Pro was the next Model up for several hundreds more, though. Ultimately, I am happy with my laptop even if I have to disassemble it just to repair the chassis with epoxy periodically. It’s 6 years later and the specs are still more than adequate for 99% of my needs, except for my specific intel processor which isn’t supported by Win11. I consider that a feature as oppose to a problem. The software bloat and planned obsolessence through slowdowns of software on Windows based computers are things I do not miss one bit.

They have since changed their model lineup and I bet the build quality on the other models today aee much better then the Gazelle of 2018.

I don’t even look at that thing. I scroll right past it.

i wouldn’t expect anyone to watch a video longer than 3 minutes on the subject.

I actually liked devil’s rejects more than House of 1000 corpses. Rob zombie has a tendency to dip his toes into the torture porn type of horror genre from time to time and I think house of 1000 corpses had too much of that going on with it for my own taste.

I just watched it based on the recommendations here, and it’s not bad. It does suffer from the same trope as a lot of horror movies, which is this, by the time it ended i wanted the main character to die because they were getting on my nerves.
