if i can’t have anything nice, you can’t have anything nice, and only the people who can’t have anything nice will have something nice >:)

so true bestie, so true

i mean it depends on how you define common, common among the world populous? No, common among fabrication types? Yes.

there are only a few things that are common amongst the whole human population, and none of them are learned skills. (learned as in learned from the ground up, to be able to do that one specific thing I.E. socialization doesn’t count as it’s a fundamental aspect of humanity)

i think there is a fundamental reason why linux is a good operating system. It’s the same reason that vehicles from the 70s and 80s are so beloved, because they’re easy to repair. Hell you could probably rebuild one in your garage, sure you’d need some level of knowledge to do so. But it’s all out there, and very easy to access, and same for the parts.

I think linux is very similar in this regard, part of what makes it so good, is being so familiar with it. Windows doesn’t let you do this, because it doesn’t want you to. Linux does, because you’re supposed to, and i would argue that telling people linux is a “turn key” solution is rather irresponsible when inevitably, they’ll want to do something weird or have to fix a weird problem which will require them to go digging around somewhere.

I also don’t think the basic concepts of linux are all that complicated, two weeks and a vm to install arch and you’ve got most of the foundational concepts in your head already.

fr i keep saying this and nobody seems to think it’s a good idea.

Fuck timezones, me and my homies operate on UTC.

im a proponent of using exclusively UTC for anything pertinent to being accurate, and then using local solar time (the sun) to refer to everything else, it has the benefit of making people look outside anyway.

oh you sweet summer child, what you don’t know is going to come back to haunt you forever.

i would aruge that the arbitrary factor of “9am being morning” is entirely to do with the fact that morning is actually a solar time phenomenon, whereas global time does not have the concept of morning, since it is merely imitating the local solar time.

Local solar time being the literal point in the sky that the sun is in.

It gets even funnier if we include people who aren’t “normal” I for one, consider noon to be morning.

i see no problem with that. You can’t go learn to weld without putting in lots of effort and time learning.

It’s really just that simple.

because redhat smelly.

Also fedora is hella configured out of the box, which is nice for new users, and a good reason to just use it. But at that point i think you should just use something like debian while figuring out how to properly do the whole linux thing because it’s going to positively benefit you quite a bit.

uh oh. I think i might need some health insurance before that event.

no, because they’re the supreme court, and they’re appointed for life.

i was gonna say, this is ADHD math? I just thought this was mental math in short lmao.

rolling through DSMV and calling it a day is wild, from my experience, at least with more off the cuff mental disorders a survey containing about a thousand or so questions is the bare minimum. Plus a few more rounds of that as you try to narrow down any other potential disorders it could be, because it turns out this is a really hard field to deal with.

There is definitely utility in getting a diagnosis like this, but i’d imagine most wouldn’t for most things other than basic stuff like ADHD, depression, anxiety etc… There is a considerable risk of just being wrong about something, even if you roll through something like ICD10 which is markedly better than the DSMV. If you’re lucky there are a few good localized options like the akhtar profiles for SzPD which can summarize the general disorder into a handful of specifics actions more so than a broad behavioral checklist.

it’s even funnier when you might have any given variety of mental disorders.

Could be ADHD, could be autism, hell might be both or neither! Could be SzPD, could be a variant of that, could be any other generic personality disorder. Hell maybe i’m just shitposting and i’m perfectly normal!

So now that balloons to the period of about 5 years, 20 tests, and many thousands of dollars, both spent and lost.

OH and how could i forget. It does precisely, almost nothing. Because disability is super fucked. And any other services that do exist are probably also a nightmare, so what’s even the fucking point of having them!

it’s only contempt, from my understanding of law it’s not uncommon for contempt of court, and inter court violations to be anywhere from like 2 weeks of jail time, to a few months.

but why does a disability entitle you to a service that’s paid?

why would you limit the ability to use lyrics though? It’s the same shit that every big article tabloid is doing “pay us five dollar a month and we will show you our articles, that we think are good” after showing you like three, in four months for free.

Either give people access to the service, or don’t, don’t play the bullshit of “well actually, here’s a free sample”

damn thats crazy, i’m out here with my 300GB collection of music that i own and control and i can just, add lyrics to shit if i want to.

I don’t because i’m not deaf and i don’t really care for lyrics all that much, but it’s also just, automated.

they would have a livable wage if they weren’t so fucking bad at business.

They literally outsource the one part of the music industry that makes money publishing

The ONLY source of revenue they have is from subscriptions, and literally all it does is pay the publishers that use spotifys platform. And also VC but that doesn’t count since it’s VC.

damn what a shit website.

Some of these things are just like, shit we’ve known since the 60’s repackaged as “hey we’re pretty sure this isn’t that anymore”
