As usual, AI is exacerbating already broken systems.

American lawmakers don’t fall from the sky. They represent the values of the american people.
Lmao. You must have no idea how American elections work.

You may not like it, but if your distro can’t run on this, it’s bloated.

Usually, but there might be services running as other users that reference those configs. It really just depends on what’s on your system. Obviously you can make 700 work, but it might require tweaking some stuff.

This is how I learned they were retiring. What a last mission, eh?

Nah, there’s a lot of config files in there that other programs need to read.

on I'm never cutting it short again 🥰 in c/transmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 6 Sep 2026
It’s insane how people will use having short hair growing up as “evidence” that an AMAB person isn’t really trans—as if:
- They have any control over it
- Girls can’t prefer short hair
My parents completely shaved my head every summer regardless of how long it was and I remember crying every time.
When they finally gave me a choice over my hair in High School, I always grew it out and only trimmed it when they started making fun of how “shaggy” I looked.

on Exemption on age verification for Linux operating systems in c/technology@lemmy.world · 4 Sep 2026
So if you want to protect your kids from adult rated content, and you live in California, you need to buy a propietary system.
That’s not at all what this means. You’ve always been free to add any additional parental controls to your kid’s devices, and that hasn’t changed.

on Happy Manjaro Certificate expiration day! To all who celebrate! in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 25 Aug 2026
Maybe it wasn’t due to certs, but it still happened. That was enough for me to switch distros. I was much less experienced with Linux back then, so I wasn’t able to figure out how to get it working again.
So far I’ve daily-driven EndeavorOS, Mint, PopOS, and Kubuntu. None of them have broken themselves with an apt or pacman upgrade.

on Happy Manjaro Certificate expiration day! To all who celebrate! in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
This is literally why I stopped using Manjaro.
I’ve botched 2 Manjaro installs just doing a
pacman -Syuwhile their certs were expired and I ended up with an incomplete upgrade.Never once had this issue with EndeavorOS.

on Comcast turns your Xfinity WiFi into a home motion detector in c/technology@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
You can also get your own modem, but that doesn’t change the fact that yes, you need to use a VPN for any external traffic you don’t want your ISP seeing.
However, ISP controlled routers provide them direct visibility into your LAN, which they otherwise wouldn’t see. This gives WAY more detailed information about you and your behavior, i.e. the original article.

PSA: If you can afford your own a retail router, it’s always a better idea than using the one provided by your ISP. Make no mistake, Xfinity is absolutely collecting (and probably selling) data on the traffic of every device on your network.

on Remote workers report the highest well-being in study of 7,700 employees: while those who worked entirely onsite reported the lowest. in c/technology@lemmy.world · 19 Aug 2026
Thank you, this was exactly what I was wondering. I’m all for remote work, however it’s not really fair to compare completely different roles.
Job satisfaction has so many variables, I don’t envy the difficulty of designing an accurate study of this.

on It wasn't the future after all: Ford is rehiring hundreds of quality-control engineers after its AI inspection push fell short in c/technology@piefed.social · 10 Aug 2026
It’s all FOMO. There’s a big narrative in the executive world that you either fully embrace AI or get left behind and wither. AI companies have spent most of the trillions of bubble money marketing this narrative.
If you truly believe it’s as powerful and transformative as it’s been sold as, then this mentality makes sense.

I’m certain that everyone who isn’t invested in the AI industry told them this was a terrible idea. AI companies have worked extremely hard to oversell their capabilities, and large corporations are always frothing at the mouth to eliminate as many jobs as possible.
Labor is expensive. Expert labor: triply so. If there’s even a promise of a chance that corporations can eliminate the necessary expense of labor, they will take it.
You’re arguing against a completely different point.
I’m not saying these people weren’t elected. I’m saying that American elections results have become increasingly distant from the values of their constituents for multiple reasons.
