Make lawnmower go whir (teacup.social)
submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

OK dad, I've been wihtout a lawnwower most of the summer. I want to take one last swipe at the acre with the push mower and then use the lawn sweep to clean it up. If I take the bag off the push mower what kind of trouble do you think I'll find if I try to chop up the very long 1'+ bent over grass and the leaves on top of it?

This attitude is why Americans have two shitty right-wing parties

Now that "everyone" works from home, a lot of companies figure it cost a lot less to hire Indians to do that than Americans.

That's often how it works. Duplicate middle management particularly is usually less needed after a merger.

I think that would not change the opinion much among the existing desktop userbase. That being said the younger generations are not by nature desktop users the way Gen-xers and millennials were. I think getting GNU/Linux as the default desktop for educational settings I think will have. Thankfully there is some traction being made on this front, particularly in places like France, Brazil & Argentina. Then again I guess it's not an either or, as having more vendors with preloaded Educational focused distributions & support would make such adoption more likely to successfully launch in such settings.

and that can be about what you enjoy. I like making my computer so shit. Others like fixing engines or playing video games, they're all different ways to scratch that same itch.

default settings, everything on GNU/Linux can be customized. Getting done to change the default is always a struggle. For example it's been decades that in GNUDE the middle button click has been paste, so while it may seem dumb to you that it does that, it's user base expects that to be the default.

But as you've already found in this thread in a meme community, one of the best ways to learn how to customize your system the way you want is to claim in a Linux forum that Linux can't do such and such.

I'm interested too. All of my Indian colleagues have one, but while I am in favor cricket converafe and the few English language Indian movies I've seen I'm not overly interested in Indian content, so I'm not clear what rise is out there.

I know this isn't the question you asked, but have you tried playing Minetest game?

It's not a bad idea, that's why I got married on 2/14 so I wouldn't get stuck having to have an extra gift giving holiday.

as someone from a mixed marriage, I can say: (1.) The heart does what the heart wants; (2.) There can be reasons political, economic, for family, etc.

There are multiple schools of thought on that.
