H-how did this meme clear up a confusion I have with ** pointers after all these years?

They’re just pointer pointers!

Dang, that is so cool C can do that.

Yeah, this kinda hit me whenever my first pair of AirPods died because I was using them so much. They have such tiny batteries, so a percentage difference in total charging capacity was felt quicker. Additionally, the use-case lends to them being discharged almost completely, which hurts life further. While it’s convenient, I realized I was paying a really sharp subscription service where there’s no service from the manufacturer to continue the use of the parts and ultimately the product is designed to be landfill debris.

I switched to a wire after that.

I once was so enthusiastic about Fedora…

Or – Christ it’s 2023 – Apple’s first fucking USB-C phone. Holy mother of god, having one stupid cable for the devices I want was a siren song of a mad god, but we’re finally here.

In 2023

That’s what I hoping for, because it’s sick being nearly up to date while being so stable and user friendly at the same time.

Me, on Fedora, wondering when the wiretapping begins.

(I’m hoping they step it back, else it’s Debian for me 🙃)

Oh, you’ll be fine then. Haven’t used Mint personally, but I’ve heard good things about it! Always reach out for help.

If not, surely the one after that.

Isn’t that the joke tho?

Good on you mate, and welcome aboard!

Assuming it isn’t you first time: there’s a slight learning curve, but once you’re passed a few months and you’ve resolved a few issues on your own you won’t look back!

Look into KDE extensions to customize your desktop just the way you want it! My windows wobble around or fizzle out of existence when I close them. :)

This may sound argumentative, it isn’t:

The capitalist pitched the infrastructure cost to the government, design of transportation and city design flex around them, and now you need to buy the privilege to participate in society back from them. Where I live public transport is basically non-existent (unless you just so happen to live in a wealthy area, oddly enough) and I’ve known people trapped in poverty because no car means no job, but job don’t pay, so they work for car because everyone is laser focused on the merits for the individual over the collective. Even if it’s cooking the environment and is inefficient for moving people en-masse as well.

In the example you gave why not offer a train station that goes to the city? I’m one of the fortunate few that can take the train into the city and it has been ideal. Just me, my e-bike, and the train. No insurance; no emissions. It’d be perfect save the two tons of metal flying around me constantly.

It’s certainly on my list alongside Debian. It’s a shame, since my distro of choice is Fedora but I’ll switch next time I need to re-install my OS. If they throw opt-out telemetry into the mix I’m dipping immediately. Sure, I could opt out, but I don’t want to fuck it up.

Strangely enough, because I’m finding it to be more stable than Windows.

My work laptop has the Bluetooth or Internet service just cut out without any explanation. The first reboot doesn’t fix it, but for some reason the second does 🤷‍♀️

Absolutely vile. It’s quite literally on their front page.

Yeah… I just wanted to connect my phone via adb. Ended up removing myself from the sudo-ers group. Since I did not know how to fix this problem at the time this caused a fresh install.

Hoffman’s reaction

Care to share a link if you have it readily available? Otherwise I can hunt around for it :)

Ah, thank you for explaining. I don’t follow Linux news as closely as I should, and I wondered if this affects me because I use Fedora.

Well, billionaires are wonderful people deep down.
