On thunder there was no picture in post preview, but there is a picture in the post. Maybe it's because of png format, or maybe Wikimedia does something weird when you embed links to it, dunno

Tbf, these days windows is so obscure, it also sucks for technical people, sometimes it's practically impossible to find where to configure something even if you know it can be configured, even worse if you don't know for sure

I'm in Europe, I once was in a pretty bad state and with a high fever, so I called 112 or something like that, because in other country they decide if you should go to hospital immediately and deliver you. Here they questioned me and told me ‘yeah, you should go to ER’, and the conversation was over. I took a taxi there, not sure what would I do if I passed out before getting to the taxi, as I already passed out that evening and it was why I called and didn't just go in the first place.

Isn't it the way the best propaganda should work, stating the exact opposite of what is happening in reality?

I used X11 on Mint until this November, but only because Wayland is not supported on Mint. I wanted to switch because even if Wayland is not there yet, I believe that it needs more users to switch to polish rough edges faster. And because I know how switching from legacy can take forever if you wait until everything is perfect, I decided to switch to Wayland, it does miss a couple of features I need like programmatic keyboard input but there are workarounds

Seems to be incompatible with some plugs, after all:

For some reason the image doesn't seem to work for me, so here's the link to it, too

Afaik, they patched it 5 days after release, so depends on how shortly after release you played.

To be fair, there is one example of a woman changing her opinion on a matter of abortion afterwards, and I hope it's not a sole one who did. But the opposite is more widely presented, and I guess it's more common, too

Maybe they are not too dissimilar, based on this comment, but I'm not sure what their views really are, and the whole thread is a dumpster fire:

Looks like the anti DEI message in the README is working, it's filtering out the worst people

They should just ask if you're calling from the number associated with your account, they usually ask me that, anyway
