@drwankingstein @PoliticalAgitator Kinda agree with you, people are sick and tired of good culture works being slowly replaced by DEI-quotaed movies, games etc

@ihatelinux
The promotion of homosexuality to small children may be seen as inappropriate, since you would not promote anything else sexual to a 6-year-old (it is grooming). But for some reason, some extreme-minded people think a kid who does not have any idea of sexuality and does not know how to read yet, should still already choose their sexuality and therefore homosexuality needs some coverage in primary schools and kindergartens. If that's what the line refers to, I think, it's pretty normal.

@boredsquirrel I personally use neither of those, but I've had to fix issues on computers running both.
I can tell that the apple GUI is clumsy, but sadly inevitable when you want to do stuff. I would always lose time trying to tile or move windows without success.
At least in #Gnome, it's #linux so you can fix everything without being forced into using a badly designed GUI and a lot of things work well. Though you'd better not be looking for some customization on Gnome, but if you bought an apple device you've already kissed customization (and fair prices) goodbye so to me there is no real question between the two in terms of user experience.

@PoliticalAgitator @TheGrandNagus On the contrary, Linux was already here when the need for supercomputers and servers appeared, and that's why most of them run on Linux.

@PoliticalAgitator @TheGrandNagus Well, it's mostly because Linux is way newer to the computer scene than microsoft's OS for instance. When #linux started out, computers using msdos were already being shipped for over a decade, and so they were the de facto standard, and it takes time for people to switch to a better product if they are used to another one and have the ecosystem keeps them in (that's the main reason people keep buying overpriced apple products)

@thejml @technom And then start a craze so you can make tier lists of tier lists of distro tier lists

smart

@TwinTusks Do you research economics/military upgrades enough ? Do you build siege engines/elephant ?

Usually for me the rule of thumb is :
- no unit that does nothing
- no building that produces nothing (i.e., try to never get popcapped and always produce, so you need to have all the resources you need to produce)

@TwinTusks How does it go ? Is it that you get overrun by a larger army ? Or you have trouble maintaining your economy ?

@d3Xt3r @zyratoxx IT is true that this is a terrible way of measuring popularity, like they could put surveys or use the searches on the site for instance

@theshatterstone54 @TwinTusks Did you play against the easy AI ?
Back in the days when I first started I had to play 10 games before I could beat the Ai because I chose the normal mode.

But playing against the easy or very easy AI gives you all the time you need to understand the mechanics

@Wooki @VLDK the new **I use NixOS BTW** 😂😂😂

@Malix @psycho_driver From what I can remember this limitation (which either Fedora or Nobara overturned 1yr ago) was set way before video games that take up a lot of memory were a thing.

@perishthethought sorry for mentioning you too 🙇
I was answering to @CatTrickery regarding his message asserting that Brodie “harassed people but did not block nazis” (https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/6985902)

@Auli @BossDj Isn't it logical ?

@CatTrickery @perishthethought do you have any proof of what you assert ?

@MajorHavoc Plus it can even be quite ecologically good, the parts are not serialized so you cannot replace them yourself, it almost feels as if you own it (especially once you own the software on it)

@pudcollar @flakpanzer Depends, in real computer science companies technical people will use #Linux
But if you're not in a really technical company and/or in a not-that-technical division of the company, then I guess it will be BYOD then.

@carl_dungeon @flakpanzer Personally an apple job would be even lower on my list than a Windows job (which is already a deal-breaker to me)

@Semi-Hemi-Demigod @Artemis_Mystique Well, maybe the problems the students are facing are due to all of the software that the school uses being incompatible with apple. (Knowing how apple loves to be incompatible themselves, I guess that's quite logical).

And I am sure an experienced user can find workarounds to get the computer to work properly. (#asahilinux being the first thing that comes to my mind, though I never tried #asahi personally because I don't want to contribute to apple's e-waste)
