Never felt so much more in control than when ditching Windows and installing first Linux Mint and later Kubuntu. Gonna try Arch in the future to feel like a god and completely in control over what happens on my machine.

999k!

France is basically DDOSing the page, they are at 962% support

Holy moley, I signed yesterday and was sad that it was probably not going to make the cut, but that is an INSANE explosion of signatures. 990k now, this will work!

depends on your Distro, for Linux Mint it’s just the Driver Manager.

To access the Driver Manager in Linux Mint, follow these steps:

1. Click on the Menu (Taskbar) in the lower-left corner of your screen.
2. Navigate to Administration.
3. Click on Driver Manager.

Once you have opened the Driver Manager, follow these steps to install the Nvidia drivers:

1. The Driver Manager will prompt you for your password. Enter your password and click on Authenticate.
2. The Driver Manager will scan your system for available drivers. Once the scanning is complete, you will see a list of available drivers for your graphics card.
3. Select the recommended Nvidia driver from the list.
4. Click on Apply Changes to start the installation process.

Then reboot.

For most problems you can really just google stuff like “Linux Mint Nvidia Drivers”

The only way to pay for subscription is with a credit card, no thank you, my culture mostly doesn’t use those and I don’t have or want one.

at least in the US

And there’s your answer

Why would you ship a small car to a country in love with the biggest streetpanzers?

Say what you want about Zuckerberg, but most people with enough intelligence don’t hate trans people

Eh… intelligence is helpful, but in the end does not inoculate one against BS opinions. Musk is (supposedly) intelligent and toxic as hell, Richard Dawkins is (definitely) intelligent and a fucking TERF. fuck, Jordan Peterson (for all his faults) is a demonstrative intelligent man… he’s just also an asshole and wrong about a multitude of things.

If a website works in Chrome, it might not work in Firefox. If a website works in Firefox, it’ll work in Chrome.

Develop on Firefox.

That’s basically correct, it’s based on mastodon code and not federated.

Well, it is… that’s why I fit right in.

So… the genie offers to make me look better by increasing my looks to only slightly below average? Noice!

Hah! Not those exact words but Angela Merkel in 2007: “The Internet is new territory for all of us”.

BULLSHIT. Opposition to censorship continues to be strong on the left. I was there for “Stasi 2.0”, “Schäublone” and “Zensursula”. And nobody could EVER justifiably accuse Wolfgang Schäuble or Urula von der Leyen of leftism.

It’s continually the right that screeches “cEnSoRsHiP!!1!” when they get deplatformed by someone who has the right to deny them service, but it’s also the right that continually tries to implement state censorship.

His american colleagues sometimes poke fun at my cousins branch for only working 35 hours a week, taking long vacations and having lots of state mandated holidays throughout the year. When they hire someone new they sometimes comment on how lazy the german colleagues are…

Then they point them towards the numbers and the fact that the german branch is constantly setting the productivity records. They’ve been outperforming the americans by more than 10% for years.

What’s more well known around the world, Wacken or Rammstein? Because Wacken is smaller than Ramstein and would be the better answer but my guess is that Rammstein are more known.

Ramstein, population ~5600

Famous for the Ramstein Air base, the bombing of the air base, the Ramstein air show disaster and the band named after all of that.
