I’d ask in Graphene’s Matrix room, they’re real helpful over there.
Short of that try a different cable (that was why mine wouldn’t work) and it wouldn’t let me use firefox I had to use a Bromite (RIP).

Will put an eternal curse on your enemies for a Cinemageddon invite.

I would also say “just install debian and then you can install cinnamon, uninstall Gnome, and bam, debloated Mint is yours.”
But outside of that, I’d back up important files and try uninstalling some shit, fuck it. Worst case scenario you have to reinstall (or since it’s a VM just snapshot it or whatever, you know what I mean, the thing where you can revert changes, like Jim Browning uses for scammers), live and learn. All the packages you listed so far should be no problem.
Pirate movies, shows, and music.
That and I play old games. SMB 2 rn.
That’s why I use the terminal. On KDE it’s even easier because I usually already have the terminal open in dolphin, so I just click into it and type “shut” and hit tab to complete shutdown
. No accidental reboots for me!
The “please” at the beginning of a statement (not a question) like that is typically used to patronize or condescend, usually only used when being hostile or dismissive. If English isn’t your first language I can understand the misunderstanding.
Ah thanks! Like I said I always just give it the 60s (or +X), so I was less familiar with the now
bit.
The command shutdown
defaults to 60s, but doesn’t throw the popup. shutdown +60
will give you 60min instead (and +30 is 30min, etc), shutdown -c
to cancel, and shutdown --show
will show if one is scheduled shutdown -h
I believe is the “do it now” option but I always just give it the minute.
Oohhh someone was born earlier and that makes them the coolest guy ever! “Please” lol.
Jerk-off motion/eye-roll combo.
Eh it still seems like it isn’t that big of a deal what the words say to me at the root of the issue, as I said if it said “she” which is similarly exclusive not even to men because who cares but to nonbinary people and the like, and the maintainer refused to change it for whatever reason, I still wouldn’t feel too strongly about it even though I’m technically excluded.
Maybe if she said “men can’t use my software” or something I’d feel excluded, but if she just says “eh I’m not changing it to ‘they’ because X” I wouldn’t care.
The “I’m 18/21” button on websites has been around since I was a kid in the 90s, used to have to input the “actual” date too so I was born 01/01/1970 according to a lot of now defunct porn sites lol. Also still in use on tobacco, vape, alcohol, and gun websites as well.
But yeah as I am am example of, lying is always possible lol. I guess this passport or the ID thing in some states is supposed to hinder that, but torrent sites throw a wrench into any censorship efforts and they’re already illegal, they won’t play ball with the ID bullshit, ever.
Kids can torrent my dude. Been doing it since I was like 13, and that’s only because before that I was using limewire, then frostwire, then bearshare, then I found torrents because TPB took over. I’ve been pirating since I was like 9.
That is to say: This dumb ass bullshit isn’t even going to work.
I mean, yes. In some cases on some issues, some people get offended at things that are frankly a waste of anger. This is a good example of that imo, as opposed to being mad about real patriarchal shit like the wage gap, being mad because a general document says “he” seems like it’s really jumping the shark.
Personally I’d probably have checked to make sure the person who submitted it didn’t pull an XZ utils or just fuck something else up by accident before I merged it, but assuming it was literally just :%s/he/they/g then I’d have merged it, simply because while I don’t think it’s really that big of an issue either way it’s easier to just do it than being brigaded and bullied.
Sure I guess I’d just be offended by everything always which doesn’t sound exhausting at all. Or maybe I’m already not the top paid person in my field either and measuring my successes against others is a recipe for jealousy and misery. I guess it’s dealer’s choice really.
Ah gotcha I thought you were correcting my spelling haha. My mistake!
No honestly if we change it to be a woman dominated field where I’d feel unwelcome instead of a male dominated field, like say teaching, I still wouldn’t be upset at the assumption because frankly it doesn’t hinder my ability to understand the material, I can read it as a typo and move on.
Unless I guess the person was aware of who I am and intentionally misgendering me to be a dick, then yeah, but if we’ve never met and the thing I’m reading is general, then it basically is just a typo the author didn’t realize they made.
As an outside observer, who is a male which is important for this sentence, if something said “if a user of my software does ‘a’ then she can expect result ‘b’,” I wouldn’t assume I couldn’t use the software, I wouldn’t be mad about the gendered pronoun, I wouldn’t assume anything about the author, I’d say “cool so if I do A I can expect result B.” I don’t think I’d even give it a second glance, at best/worst I’d think “oh neat I wonder if the devs are women” and move on with installing the thing.
You must construct additional pile-ons.
I like seeing these vintage linux screens from before I used it. Keep em coming!
