A woman once told me she worked in a club and when one of the regulars passed away, a bunch of them went to his funeral.
There’s certainly worse legacies one could leave, than having spread some wealth around while presumably having been respectful enough to be missed.
There’s a delightful DC Comics Elseworlds story that amounts to this. It was fun.
Hmm. That matches my recent napkin math guessing where they would land.
It’s a little short of what they probably need, but they can always raise prices in a few months.
Oh. Good to know. I’ll keep an eye out for that one. Thank you!
You may want to check out the new “One Piece” game on the same engine. It has the same game play loop, interrupted by a surprisingly nicely animated story line.
Where do you get once every 2 years? Do you never reboot your machine?
I’m hearing you like to reboot your machine unusually often.
The reason I can think of where clicking would be a huge pain in the ass is an automatic task. I have some of those, but I put them on machines that I treat as servers, and the time between reboots is genuinely counted in years, for those machines.
At this point you must be missing the point on purpose.
I wasn’t before, but now I am.
I find your argument distasteful. If you want a server, use a server. But there’s no need to shout to the world that servers require command line use. That’s normal in 2025.
If you treat your laptop like a server, that’s okay. No one is judging. But my grandma isn’t doing that, and it rings hollow to complain so loudly about it in a thread about average users enjoying Linux Mint.
An average user will never even notice the issue you have been complaining about, while enjoying the product for free.
I don’t normally tell people to go open a pull request, but you should do so, if only to get a better understanding of what the community has already given you for free.
Yes. I guess that’s fair though. Most people don’t like change.
So you’re complaining that you have to click on it - once every two years - when you reboot…
That’s rough, buddy.
I joke. But also, I guess if you feel that strongly about wasting my a click, Linux is definitely the OS for you.
In contrast, I set my nephew up with Linux Mint, and he is now slowly converting the rest of his family to open source solutions.
My understanding is that they keep having conversations about privacy news, and he keeps knowing a solution, which sometimes is Android or Linux based. So now his parents will ask me “Is it true the XY protects against YZ and is free?”
It’s been a pretty cool thing to watch.
I find Garyjay helps with this, by mingling videos from other services.
Sometimes by the time I’ve tried one of the first videos to load from other services, the PeerTube results have loaded for me.
Yes.
At this rate, we will be having a “local files are hard for the average user” debate, here, in another decade.
Which, maybe it will be, at that point.
It’s often the ones we most suspected.
Oof. Hopefully a security professional will slap some sense into someone before it gets out of beta.
Imagine what she can accomplish in an echo chamber, though.
@retrolemmy username…hm…
they say it’s worth it
Narrator: They did not.
What? No! Thus could be anyone’s party for any occasion.
My spouse said it was fine, and not to talk about it anymore.
because you probably don’t know how software is built.
Oh shit. Nevermind then.
That was a surprisingly good sequel.
