search for the term: “collateral arrests”

they also used to say this same thing about going third party in mexico, but almo & sheinbaum are 2 pieces of real world living, breathing proof that it’s only a matter of taking the first step & recognizing that this type of political “common sense” is nothing more than self-fulfilling propaganda.

i wonder if it’ll save any time/space if you make iso images from your bluray’s with something like dd and mount them when you want to play them, instead of ripping their contents.

we’ve started arrested native americans & american citizens for the crime of not being in the country legally; nothing is absurd anymore.

i struggle to convince myself that the knowledge is useful when it’s so widely & willfully ignored.

same here on both counts.

i created a convincing lcars interface based on enlightenment 20-ish years ago and it would take on a whole new level of enjoyment nowadays with a touchscreen laptop; i could pretend that i have a padd. lol

that part of my comment was meant to be a self indictment/reflection; i’m a bit of a linux cuck since i’ve adapted myself to fit ordinary distros’ designs instead of creating something that works for me. lol

that’s why i marvel at people who do the needful that i should be doing, like here.

it’s nice to see people are still doing this; bravo!

i’ve also intended to try my hand at this, but my inner masochist is too lazy for it. lol

that or thousands/millions of other books, essays, treatises, manifestos, etc. saying the same thing.

it’s an indictment of humanity that we keep doing these same things despite it being so well documented and analyzed.

The exploding cigar assassination attempt felt like they were grasping at straws and used cartoons as inspiration. Lol

popular opinion is one thing; those people appear to be willfully ignoring reality.

there was a post yesterday on asklemmy from someone who wanted to escape fascism by going to italy and i got downvoted for trying to make them aware that italy is doing the same shit, like this posts describes.

i wish i could understand why they assumed that italy isn’t fascist when they literally elected a fascist leader and made worse anti-lgbt laws than the americans have done (so far).

some part of me hopes that microsoft will enshitify github enough to enable decentralization like this like reddit did to enable lemmy adoption and twitter did for discord adoption.

i’m in awe everytime people do this.

i learned how to do this before code sharing sites like github existed and it forced me to turn everything i’ve learned into muscle memory and i think that this next generation of greybeards are going to be so much better than my generation’s greybeards because of it.

adam ruins everything dedicated an episode to this and it feels like it was prompty ignored by most.

That’s true; I haven’t modified my keyboard in decades and this shows it.

i’ve done this using android and linux.

i’ve repurposed my old androids to turn them into wireless cameras for my home made security system based on the motion project as well as created a homemade lojack and dashcam for my car. some phones i was able to root and i picked and chose what software ran on it and the others, i disabled as many services/apps as i could to make them as minimalistic as possible.

for linux, i created my own home made router and wifi access point; but it’s kind of the opposite of minimalistic as it’s a full blown linux server with virtual machines and desktop environment to help with management.

i provided both extremes to mirror what others have said: it’s hard to provide advice without knowing what your goal is.

well said, but i wonder how much it will matter in the future considering that the kernel group itself has so willingly kowtowed to american hegemony in its recent expulsion of russian developers from the kernel maintainers group to align itself with american export controls.

there’s multiple ways to skin this cat, but in your shoes: i would use xmodmap to remap or disable those keys.

they also won’t chose him in 2028, but he and aoc are trying to drum up support anyways to help the democrat’s chances.
