Came to say this. Been loving my Trilium instance.

Seems like a bit of a power dynamic problem… one could argue Job consented to all his bad treatment by trusting in the lord. Abraham was gonna kill his son. But I’d wager if I asked them, as a stranger, there’s no way any of them would consent. It’s the threat of etarnal fire that inspires such devotion and sacrifice. Bit of an unhealthy relationship if you ask me… my Christian parents are happy to ruin their lives for a better afterlife - including eroding their relationships with their kids. Bit sad. If I did believe in a god, I wouldn’t believe that he sent us here to make us suffer and make sacrifices.

But you are correct, the gospel I was looking at didn’t mention Mary giving consent. Just one of the problems of having 4 conflicting accounts…

My toothpaste is getting low, I think I’ll try busts next!

Dog, she was impregnated by the holy ghost without consent. I don’t believe that actually happened, but that’s what the bible says…

Try a used laptop. Cheap, power efficient, built in UPS, small. Can be quite powerful and some are even upgradable

I’ve always thought I was mildly allergic to some brands of toothpaste, wonder if this was related.

My symptoms were sores in the corners of my mouth/gums - took a couple weeks before they’d show up and the only way to get them to go away was heavy rinsing with water after brushing (which is not recommended because of fluoride mineralization)

Switched to Tom’s toothpaste (with fluoride) a few years ago and have had 0 issues since

In my opinion, public transportation doesn’t need to be profitable. Subsidized by taxes, like our freeways. Adds to the economy and is worth the investment

You could pick up a used laptop for pretty cheap. Low TDP, leagues ahead of a Pi

Pretty big fan of manjaro

I got this one today on my work laptop - pretty surprising to me Microsoft pulls shenanigans like this without enormous backlash

Linux people like security, it’s a security concern to give Nvidia’s proprietary drivers such low level access

If their calls violate GPL then I don’t even know why you’re being sarcastic. Not acceptable. Copyleft licenses HAVE to be respected legally. Silly to pretend like the license shouldn’t have to apply to Nvidia. If a user wants to install proprietary Nvidia drivers, they still can. But Linux isn’t picking a fight, GPL is what makes Linux Linux.

Love pop!_OS, Manjaro is a really cool and good fork of Arch that’s easy to install if rolling distributions are something you’re interested in

Last weekend I talked my wife into trying Linux on her desktop on an extra SSD I had, she loves it. Loves that she can customize everything, says it’s faster (especially boot time), we put it on her laptop last night

I don’t have a 4K TV or surround sound, but people online seem to report both work

I use my steam deck docked as a Home Theater PC (HTPC) with a remote with a gyroscopic mouse and full keyboard on the back, and I love it. YouTube with ad block, jellyfin media server, and videogames

Wouldn’t want to give the lawyers anything to work with.

I use an ad blocker and the empty space between information (presumably where ads should be) is hilariously large

I’ll work on adopting this attitude! No need to be frustrated over what you don’t control

Similar boat, but it still pains me using Windows at work. I’m constantly frustrated at work when I accidentally open something in Edge. Not my computer, but still my experience

You could think of it as the companies fault, you can combat Microsoft if you have the know how, but personally I feel like Microsoft is abusing their power by strongly coercing users to use their services.
