Xubuntu, Kubuntu, and Open Media Vault (based on Debian)

I'm thinking of just using Debian on most of my machines in the future, just have to go through the effort to switch.

I just have a stock of frozen, and then buy fresh when I plan to make a specific dish that's worth the effort.

Why not just ask?

I love Linux. I prefer it to windows, but windows is fine. Unfortunately, there are some programs I use that don't work properly under linux, primarily Microsoft office, but also some games here and there. I'm sure that I could get those games working under linux, but it's more work. I use linux at work, and windows at home at the moment, but I prefer linux and am very comfortable with both.

This is a good point. There are conservative viewpoints I find compelling, but they have basically nothing in common with MAGA, de santis, or any other popular conservative these days.

I find I can talk with individuals, when we both view the other as individuals, instead of a representative of republicans or whatever other moniker you give them. I mean, not everyone, but at least most people.

One issue is that it sometimes gets hard to discuss something like "lower taxes for businesses" because some people will assume you want to murder all gay people and others come along who actually do want to do that and think they are on you're side...

When positions are too simplifed into left vs right and all your other positions are assumed to be in line with the left vs. right debate there will never be any real discussion.

Despite the fact that student loans are completely f'd and something needs to be done ab out this, I think this is the riht call. The HEROS act was not meant to be used like this.

Congress needs to do this, not the president...

When I start to feel paralyzed, I just do something, any of the things.

Ideally it would be the most pressing thing, but as long as it's something, I can get in a groove.

But, peertube won't ever be a replacement. Most youtube creators do what they do for money. Peertube isn't the platform for that, and I'm not convinced the storage and hosting requirements will really ever be a proper replacement for youtube. What youtube does is much more expensive than what reddit or twitter do.

There is now though. So why not federate again?

If you look at my comments elsewhere, you'll see I was confused by the title (which I think implies it's banned everywhere in the city) but then later mentioned the article specifies "on city property". The title is needlessly (and probably intentionally) confusing.
