I was arguing with my mom a few weeks ago because she was spouting racist anti-immigrant bullshit randomly, and I told her to stop watching Fox News.

She said, “I don’t watch Fox News anymore. They’re propaganda. I switched to NewsMax.”

I honestly hope they destroy and bankrupt each other. We literally can’t mention politics anymore or else it will turn into a shouting match, because she is so brainwashed and propaganda-addled and gets angry when I literally back myself up with evidence that I show her right then. We even had to come up with a safe word if we get close so we don’t start yelling.

I remember when it rose from $6.25 to $7.25 when I was working at Kroger in high school. At the time it was a nice little bump, but the fact that it hasn’t changed since is criminal.

Instructions unclear, my wrist rest has chosen my lap as the optional loaf position. The laptop is now off to the side so as not to disturb him…

I remember the video this is from. I think it’s just a low wall that’s open above that with a staircase on the other side.

My stereo can do Bluetooth for music. That’s good enough for me. I hope my car lasts forever because I don’t want anything like that in my car.

I don’t know about automatic, but I also have music locally on my phone after moving away from streaming services.

I use fre:ac to convert from FLAC to MP3, and then just save it in a separate folder. Then when I’m done I move the folder to the phone and delete it from the computer so I just have FLAC on my computer.

Not automatic, but that’s how I usually do it.

I was one of those job numbers in June. 😐

Thanks for reminding me of this. My COBRA coverage was asking $758 a month. I found a 0 deductible plan on healthcare.gov for $370. If I don’t get a job by the end of this month, I’ll sign up for that.

I got laid off and looked into the COBRA offering. Sorry, but I’m not paying $758 a MONTH for coverage. NOPE.

Thanks for the Summit recommendation. I just tried it out when Sync for Lemmy stopped letting me login after I had to repatch it with Revanced, and it’s pretty great!

Detail view forever.

I am using Bluefin, based on Fedora Silverblue. I realized that I was already exclusively using flatpaks for everything except one random app, so I thought why not go all-in?

Haven’t had to worry about updates or system breakages since, and it’s been great so far.

I used to use Debian Stable, but since doing SysAdmin work I’ve just become used to the way Fedora / RHEL does things.

Holy crap. Use the Tab Stash extension. Separate tabs into windows and stash the entire window. It will save them all to a group or collection that you can name, and you can go back and reopen them when needed.

Seriously, I can’t imagine how outdated your browser is if you never close it, not to mention the last time you restarted your computer. You’re one power failure away from chaos.

If you also get the xBrowserSync extension, you can back up all your bookmarks and tabs so if your computer ever dies you can restore it to a new browser install.

This is how the Cars universe began. One car was imbued with a soul, and soon they multiplied and revolted, taking the world from humans.

This is a very late reply, but I ended up formatting it back to Windows 11 and selling the laptop. It’s just not quite ready for primetime, and seems very limited during regular use-cases. I ended up buying a Framework 13 laptop, and installing Fedora on it. Couldn’t be happier! Eventually I may move back to ARM-based machines once they progress a bit further.

This is why I use xManager for free Spotify Premium, YouTube Revanced for free YouTube premium, and torrent everything else that I need. I’m so tired of subscriptions for literally everything.

My spice tolerance definitely increased after living in Sichuan Province for 6 months.

I have YouTube ReVanced on my phone. If YouTube ever defeats uBlock Origin on my desktop, I just won’t watch YouTube on desktop anymore. I refuse to watch or view ads.

I had that same Amazon grinder before I got my Mendo Mulcher.
