Leftist with an incorrigible love for fancy aesthetics (mostly Renaissance Italy/Victorian England) that might be incorrectly read as a monarchist because of that.

Doesn’t feel like I’m constantly being sold shit while I’m here
The corporate web feels like a shopping mall, the indie web feels like a flophouse.
Ok neolib.
Trash.
I think saying Tankies aren’t Communists is a bit like saying Sword Art Online isn’t an anime.
Just because they suck doesn’t remove them from the category. In fact acknowledging the sucky parts of a <thing> is part of being grown up about that thing.
Communists (internet troll-ish)
As opposed to Communists (just-- communists) from lemmy.ml and Communists (Spicy Communists) from lemmygrad.ml
Whoever taught liberals that word, I hope they have diarrhea forever.
Incredible. Literally everything you just said was wrong.
Germany wasn’t “a small country”. They were an industrialised, highly productive and heavily armed global power. They were slightly battered by post ww1 humiliation regulations pressed on them by the winners (because they ALSO lost that one!). But the instant they told the Allies to eat shit and started using what they had, any claim to “smallness” went out the window.
And they didn’t “almost win”. They got their asses kicked.
Every single thing the Nazis wanted to achieve, they failed hard. They wanted to prove the genetic superiority of the German people in the Olympics, instead they were soundly beat. They wanted to expand their territory, they got as far as fucking Poland and France and then stalled for years until a double whammy of Americans and Russians basically curb-stomped them, with the last few years of the Reich consisting of lots of propaganda coping hard about how their soon to come wonder weapons would turn the tide, which never happened because said wonder weapons were stupid ideas that only succeeded at getting more Nazis killed when they failed in testing. They wanted to stop the spread of communism, instead half their country became Soviet domain.
And then their “strongman” leader blasted his own brains out rather than face the fact that he was a loser in every way one can be a loser.
Now, now. Cinnamon is a perfectly competent DE. Gets out of the way. Does what it’s supposed to.
Let us not treat it like it is Gnome.
Let’s be honest here
I like Linux as much as the next guy
… But a violent kick to the 'nards is still more pleasant than Windows 11, so this is a “Luigi Wins By Doing Absolutely Nothing” scenario.
Way I see it, “Comrade” is a term of endearment, like “mate” or “dude” or whatever.
Whereas “Citizen” is a honorific. An ungendered stand-in for “sir/madam”.
I was thinking less ‘the combine’ and more ‘the french revolution’
But. Sure.
Finna start using ‘citizen’ as an honorific
Leto Atreides II WOULD be a supporter of Batista.
batcat
It’s like cat but better. Great for when you just want to look at the contents of a file, without loading a whole text editor.
Oh also, tldr
My procedure for learning how to use a cli command goes tldr page -> --help if the tldr fails to help me -> THEN the full manpage
No keep going, I like what you’re cooking.
Mayhaps, but you can also do this:
sudo chown me /usr/lib
Owned the Libs 👈😎👈
(doesn’t ‘usr’ mean ‘universally shared resources’?)
Those newfangled immutable distros might benefit them, since they’re unlikely to want to or care about modification, and it’s extra security.
Set up the web browser with a strong ad-blocker, maybe whitelisting YouTube since non-techy people are unlikely to know what to do if youtube throws up a stink about the adblocker.
Set up auto-updates maybe. For safety and such.
Otherwise make sure it looks like a dead ringer for whatever they are already used to (usually Windows) – Same background, icons in the same places and looking similar if not the same, panels set up the same way, etc. – This is easier with Cinnamon or KDE Plasma. Gnome… Even if you like it, it’s too different, yanno? Unless they’re coming from Mac, and even then it’s not the same.
P.S.: Lovely background of a gay bird prince. <3
And now you know why I just said “ok neolib”.
