  • US imperialism is a paper tiger. Grow a spine and organise.

  • Divinity: Original Sin 2. Has its rough points but still goated game. I don't think I'm gonna move onto another game after this because finishing this game takes so damn long lol I need a break for my other hobbies

  • If OP were smart (and they seem like an intelligent enough person) they would've thrown in some false red herrings to make it not seem like them. Maybe they quit a while ago, or maybe they haven't handed in their notice yet. etc. Hopefully that's the case. And hopefully they reach out to a journo to get this reported on.

    On the other hand hopefully their red herrings don't get some other person falsely implicated.

  • Why the fuck are you suicidal if you're in the US? You're not the ones being invaded. Talk about making things about yourself. You should be sabotaging your country's war efforts.

  • Who's saying this "as an American citizen"? I'm not, tf. I'm banned from entering the US lmao, as are most people on Earth at this point. "Everyone on the internet is American" ass comment. Most people hate the country that invades them and bleeds them dry of every resource.

  • fwiw I would be in support of this. It's normal for forums to have rules against low-quality discussion.

  • I do have a profile picture, but I don't think it's crucial. Other link aggregators often don't have profile pictures so if you're used to those, you may not think to set one. In any case I've never thought anyone's profile picture on here was particularly consequential to me.

  • I would just keep it as is. But yeah, sounds like your board wasn't oiled properly. Rub some mineral oil into it and leave to dry.

  • Wow they look so neat and pretty! Also 10kg wtf? Hope you have lots of friends lol

  • Semi-private as well. I try to have completely separate identities on different websites that aren't easily linked to each other, and each different identity has different "boundaries" on what I will share about myself. e.g. on some websites I share what country I live in, some I don't. On some websites I specify my gender, on some I don't. Tbh I don't think I specify my age anywhere because I started using the internet as a kid and got used to never stating my age—still feels wrong today as an adult.

    That all being said, I do still have varying things I'm open about in different contexts to enable me to have conversations about topics I want to have conversations about. I don't state anything my government doesn't know though (unless it's completely irrelevant/useless for them to know).

  • In the US, they use "liberal" to mean "left-wing" (and their left wing is also most countries' right-wing or centre).

    Liberalism actually refers to, essentially, the ideology of the bourgeoisie: of individual freedoms, markets, inalienable property rights, etc. In most countries with a political party that calls itself "liberal", these parties will be centre to right wing and generally support a "freer" market as well as some social freedoms.

  • Luckily the second hand laptops from that era are still usually perfectly usable if you install some FOSS OS on it (Linux, BSDs, the various more obscure ones, tend to work fine on old computers). You can pick them up for quite cheap on ebay and the like, and then you have a perfectly usable daily driver (plus from before the era of seemingly trying to get rid of all the ports on a laptop).

  • Just make ice cubes and put them in a steel bottle?

  • I have no money atm but my last round of FOSS donations was just picking based on a function of how much I use a piece of software; how much I like it; and how much money I think it already gets. e.g. I didn't donate to the Linux kernel because that's already well-funded, even though I use it every day and like it well enough.

    I think my last donations included River (the Wayland compositor I use). For the life of me I can't remember what else there was but I tend to do rounds of donations when I have money to spare and just pick software based on the above criteria.

  • RSS/Atom feeds are exactly what you describe. And there are plenty of local-only RSS readers. I use newsboat personally. There are also GUI programs, and mobile apps, if that's your preference.

  • Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”?

    You can do this... Hard links. Neither file is more "canonical" than the other.

  • Depends on the country. Also "can" is different to "will". In most countries it is unlikely anything will happen if you use a good VPN.

  • chezmoi does everything I need. It's really nice; would recommend.

  • I wash my body towels (for stepping out of the shower) weekly. I wash hand towels, for drying hands after washing hands, whenever I feel like it, quite infrequently but they get washed.

    I'd only replace a towel if it fell apart or something like that. If it's unusable.
