A more complex but more commonly used program is rsync

rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive is treated differently than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive/ which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive/

It’s a great tool for making copies onto drives, even servers. But man you have to double check how each folder path is laid out, otherwise it’ll write the files of one folder to the main drive, unorganized.

Every time Democrats do something good, its always 10+ years away from actualizing, enabling Republicans to either remove it when they gain control, or claim it’s their success for the media.

Every time Republicans do something evil, it happens within the month they wanted to do it. Fucking maddening.

Crab is on your side, he thinks Garland was the worst choice for actually stopping Trump. Garland was put on for slowing the court system to allow Biden to defeat Trump twice.

Wanna bet how long until the Lemmy Libs still blame the voters/progressives/anti-genocide/Latinos/whatever boogyman still?

When their own personal saint of Neoliberals admits he sucked at his job at stopping Trump, do you think they will or think he’s been “Tainted” by Russian bots too?

The Chromebook I have, is overall fine. It runs ChromeOS pretty well, and most web pages don’t make me beg for more RAM or CPU. ChromeOS does a fine job, to the point I wonder if I ran Arch or something on it, it’s a crapshoot.

I think most laptops these days, even the cheap ones, are probably fine when you run a light OS on em. I’ve used computers that were 10 years old and ran most things decently well.

If my Chromebook could run Linux or even pure Android, I’d probably use it way more often. But it being a locked down distro with android bolted on is useless to me.

• I can’t really do anything major on it that I can on a cheap laptop
• I can’t really use it for the same games or programs on Android, as the form factor really gets in the way, even in tablet mode.

It feels like the worst of both worlds. It’s fine for people who use a laptop/OS as a bootloader to a web browser, its not fine for weirdos like me.

His autobiography is called “Losing My Virginity”.

Is this ironic?

Worked for Ronald Reagan, works for Trump, I guess.

Only recently has everyone above the 18 had the ability to vote, excluding those who are slaves as per the 13th amendment. For most of American history, women couldn’t vote. Black people weren’t considered people. We kicked out anyone Chinese. We locked away Japanese Americans because they were ethnically Japanese.

America was maybe a democracy for 56 years, since the Voting Rights Act of 1968. That’s a stretch at best, as the country never healed for being an Apartheid for 200 years.

Aside from this being a little fucking melodramatic and defeatist, the thing that really bothers me is the implicit assumption that if only we’d all just vote blue no matter who we wouldn’t have this problem, like the Democratic Party hasn’t been kowtowing to and enabling those same oligarchs to undermine our democracy.

Reminder that Clinton pushed for Trump to be the nominee as she thought she would win easier with him. Trump is a non-zero amount of Clinton’s fault.

Don’t get me wrong, boom tomorrow is definitely better than boom today, but it’s important to not forget that there was never not going to be a boom.

Playing hot potato with a bomb, passing it along between various administrations and congressional members, and none of them were going to get hurt. It was always going to explode with the victims being the 99%.

Even if they had the time frame that Republicans had with drafting and promoting Project 2025, they could have had their own. They knew it existed, only Trump pretended it never existed and was a hoax.

If the DNC had its own Project 2025, something like “Project End Fascism” it could have worked. Instead we got “Maybe 100K for new home owners. Not gonna go after the corporations buying every home.”

So many people will say “this is a gross oversimplification, they do lots of progressive things” while ignoring the world around them.

The fact we had to invent a political term for them is enough to tell me that we need to abandon this fascist supporting party.

Thank you for sticking up for your values and not joining bandwagons for fascism.

The color blue, instead of red.

“Here’s a long detailed rebuttal to your badly informed opinion.”

“Ad hominem!”

Reddit and its consequences was a mistake.

At least Hillary has some cajones, Harris never gave me that impression.

Hillary had years of experience on the federal level. Senator and then Head of State. She was used to making choices that had a big impact.

I will always remember Harris for her DNC nomination debate performance. She personally called out Biden’s racist policies and how it impacted her. Showing that out of touch white men have lasting impacts on generations children. It was her highest moment. If you check articles they’ll say that was one of the highlights of the event.

And then became Biden’s VP. Just willing to ignore how he personally wrote a racist bill that harmed you because it’s a position of power? Alright. That’s sure a message about your morals.

And when asked about why by Steven Colbert: “It was a debate!”

Yeah Cryophillia has previously dismissed me. I wonder if they’ll forget this next time they say I’m somehow an Ultra Secret Double Agent Trump supporter.

You will never admit that they have any at all.

Never in a million years, next time someone says “I don’t think Biden should have slowed Trump’s arrest.” they’ll just go “huh, must be a Russian bot.”

Yes, when you pretend that everyone to your left is all the way to your right, you get to dismiss everyone to your left. Pretty sure that’s the only time you have anything bad to say about anyone you claim to be to your right.

Anyone to the left of Reagan/Biden is a Tankie to them.

Trump sucks shit, I’ve never once denied that. Dig through my entire history, you’ll never find me unironically praising Trump, or ever saying he did something great. I don’t think he’s ever done anything good, at least on purpose. I can think of maybe stopping pennies, but that’s like… nothing great.

I don’t like Democrats, but I hate Republicans. I vote Democrat because they’re the only option I have. I’m allowed to call out my reps and the party who has anyone with a braincell hostage because they vote on Trump’s cabinet picks, flip flop on voting no for his Enabling acts, and then act like its some great favor for us that they give Trump what he wants, and how with just another $5 they can finally stop Trump this time.

I want Trump dead. I’ll settle for him rotting in jail. He should have been in jail for Jan 6. He wasn’t. I can only blame Garland for slowing that shit, and not getting the rest of Trump’s enablers and rioters on Jan 6.

Sorry you find me saying “Democrats voting Yes on Trump’s wants isn’t good for anyone.” is somehow bad in your eyes. If Democrats voted no, I’d be happy. I’d be praising them if they stood up, like Al Green, like I have been. If they filibustered to slow him down like Bitch McConnell did for anything good Obama could have pushed for in his second term, I’d be cheering.

Is voting for/with Trump’s wants good for America and its people, yes or no? To me, it’s no. I don’t think we should Trump anything he wants.
