cowsay should be at the end of every script you run.

Googling so many "how do I do X?" type of questions have top-results of 10-minute videos where someone has their cluttered Desktop in full 1920x1080 and then they open the tiny command prompt in a small window (it's clear they have no idea how to record a video), where they clumsily type commands they clearly don't understand, and fumble through the entire process.

I just needed a single command. It should have been a 1-second result at the top of search, not shitty videos or SEO dynamically-generated shit site that are trying to sell me something.

Built-in OneDrive and RDP support. No apps needed. I like the sound of that.

Interesting grammar.

Uh, most apps are still for Windows. That's why so many people use it.

If you tell someone to use an alternative OS, but then they are left on their own to run alternative versions of apps that don't work the same, forced to give up features they are use to, or run dozens of different programs through Wine or Proton or emulation or virtualization or whatever, JUST BECAUSE "Microsoft bad", they're going to laugh at you and go right back to Windows.

It's taken Linux 30(?) years to make it to 4%, and a lot of that is recent because of games. It's still a niche platform.

The content didn't violate Lemmy terms of service or be of anything illegal, just the rules the mod posted.

If the mod has a short list of rules that say not to post X, and a user specifically posts X, what can I do really do about it? They may get some downvotes, but the posts stays up. The post gets reported, but the post still stays up. I check back a week later, and the post is still there.

I can't build a community up, and if it's clear the creators of that community and/or the current mods themselves have moved on or simply don't care, then I will just move on.

I just stop reporting posts and simply leave the community if the posts stay up for several weeks.

"Canonical announced it was building an all-snap, immutable version of Ubuntu for home users called Ubuntu Core Desktop."

I don't like the sound of this.

They usually cover/conceal nipples, so you don't see everything.

In the list of "games", the top item is the "Just Talking" or whatever the category is called. Click that and try various sorting.

Punishing the poor and making things harder for them to dig out of their situation is certainly for the best!
