I was an idiot and read it as .ro for Romania. Of course I know about Russia and the war.
Still I also wouldn’t comment on people posting .com-links, even though the US are fighting endless illegal wars for decades and the president is wrecking democracy for a police state.

Why?

This is so frustrating, right? The king of the baboons is insane and addicted to attention, so he throws shit around and spits at everyone who comes to close. And all the other baboons circle around him, watching every move he makes so they can jump and scream as soon as he does.
Stop reporting, stop reacting, it doesn’t accomplish anything, it’s a waste of time.

I have 1/3 of a 1 TB SSD for Windows, Linux and a free partition for random stuff each. With home finally on a second 2 TB SSD. This is great, so far.

We are all equal, we want to live peaceful, save and secure lifes. Then come the psychopaths who crave the power.
Americans who think they have more in common with Trump, Musk and Vance than with average Canadians: Guess again!

I can’t believe nothing is coming from the sane half of the country. This will not get any better. So where is the attitude, the boldness, the pride, the ego, the guns, everything that shaped my view of what the US are in the past decades? Where are you?! Writing comments on the internet while people disappear in real life.
I’m going to quote Erich Kästner again:

The events from 1933 to 1945 should have been combated by 1928 at the latest. Later it was too late. We must not wait until the fight for freedom is called treason. We must not wait until the snowball has turned into an avalanche. The rolling snowball must be crushed. No one can stop the avalanche. It only comes to rest when it has buried everything beneath it.
Erich Kästner, 1958

You have no idea what you are taking about, Teknikal

This is not a book, but files to use in some kind of dictionary-app. AA is not a place for these kind of files, I’m pretty sure they won’t allow them over there.

Schrödingers Russia is on the verge of collaps and about to conquer Europe for three years now

If these people would do the exact same thing for climate justice instead of a better wage, people would lose their shit and probably drive a few SUV in the crowd.

I can’t decide between Fooyin and Rhythmbox. I’d love to stick with Rhythmbox, but I really miss waveform view.

Let’s talk about that!
I was running Mint 21.3 using THIS script (tutorial) and it was incredible! It one-stop turned my (rather powerful) computer into an audio workstation. I just installed Bitwig and couldn’t have been happier. All my VSTs worked with Yabridge, which came with the script. It was super snappy and my projects where huge! I edited big projects in Davinci as well.
Then I switched to Mint 22, looking forward to using PipeWire and … it’s not great. I have latency and my old projects stutter. I feel like in missing something but I don’t know what it could be. Davinci is giving me errors as well, so can not use it right now. Need to look into it, don’t want to. It’s frustrating, but I don’t want to downgrade!

If you own (or rather inherit) 20 million and you invest them with an interest rate of 5% you earn 1 million a year without doing any work. You can buy every luxury you need with an income like that. So everything above 20 million is not wealth or security anymore, it’s power. And some people are attracted by it.

Are you telling me that Jeffrey Bezos is INTENTIONALLY attracting billions of customers with cheap stuff and then starts closing down his ecosystem? Why would he do that?!

I have it from Michael Greger @ nutritionfacts.org as he cites all his sources. But now I was lazy and just did search:

You can ditch the fish oil and eat a hand full of walnut a week, or (my favorite) eat half a tea spoon of grinded flax seed a day. I love the taste of flax seeds!

Please eat fruits and vegetables, supplements are (mostly) a scam!

I absolutely agree. I use it at home for lots of different tasks and put it on my parents laptops as well. It might not be the hottest, most modern disto for the cool kids but it’s a great experience.

I have been buying second hand Pixels 4a’s for my family. To me, they’re the perfect phones. I put LineageOS with MicroG on them and use them without Google. I logged in my throwaway Google account to check if some of the IMEI qualify for a battery swap, but it gives me an error when I enter any IMEI.
Do you guys have an idea why this might happen? I’d love to get new batteries for free in them and use them another 6 years or so.
