MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Visual Studio Code alternatives for Linux?English5·2 years agoI am aware of this one, but it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I think I’ll start using Kate, and contribute whatever features I’m missing if I can.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•West Bank ‘not occupied’ territory, says Ron DeSantis13·2 years agoHe is not denying that they are building settlemens. He just doesn’t consider it occupation. Anything for more donors, I suppose.
Alright, so you don’t acknowledge the problem, still fits the definition.
I’d hate for our discussion to be about semantics, but I’m saying that we don’t believe in the problem. If I’d say “Hey, regarding the vampire situation, you have your head in the sand, because you won’t acknowledge the problem”, it wouldn’t be an accurate statement, or correct usage of the phrase.
unwilling to recognize or acknowledge a problem or situation
I’m not saying that we are unwilling to recognize a problem, the problem itself is greatly exaggerated, or even non-existent.
Yeah I agree. I’m mostly talking about what you’ll find on Twitter and big subreddits.
I’m almost the same as OP, but I wouldn’t call it “head in the sand”. For the past few years, the media has been exaggerating everything and creating mass hysteria. If you follow the news closely, you’ll think the world is about to end: Wars, economical depressions, climate changes, new pandemics, etc…
Stop following the news, and you won’t notice a thing. Probably the price increases, but other than that, your life is the same.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlMto Linux@lemmy.ml•The year of Linux on the desktop is closer. Linux reaches 3% of desktops25·2 years agoCounting Android is just lying. ChromeOS and WSL are a stretch, but you can make an argument for them.
When you reach the point of dehumanizing an entire population, you should stop and think about the amount of shit the media has filled your head with.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•[@feditips](https://mstdn.social/@feditips) [@fediverse](https://lemmy.ml/c/fediverse) Is there a Fedi version of something like Facebook Groups? Social circles for a specific topic? Calckey looks lik1·2 years agoI mean Lemmy kinda servers the same purpose, and the way comment threads work us way better than Facebook. What features are you missing?
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Memes@lemmy.ml•Four apps and counting, how is everyone else doing?1·2 years agoThanks for sharing! My favoriate app so far.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Memes@lemmy.ml•Four apps and counting, how is everyone else doing?English41·2 years agoLemmur is dead. It got resurrected as Liftoff.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Memes@lemmy.ml•Four apps and counting, how is everyone else doing?171·2 years agoI’ve tried Jerboa, Connect, Thunder, Liftoff, Lemmotif, and the PWA. Jerboa has the best interface/ux imo, by far. Thunder is the least buggy to use, and the developer is a machine, doing constant updates. These 2 I think have the most potential.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Memes@lemmy.ml•i mean, i still go on reddit but honestly though, the whole fediverse concept is exciting!English3·2 years agoYou mean to tell me that apps made by community volunteers as a labor of love in a couple of weeks are better than the app made by a for-profit company and has been developed for years? Funny how that works.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Memes@lemmy.ml•Bad post, good post, red post, blue post.English221·2 years agoEven if a post is a couple of days old, I feel like I can still comment and be part of the conversation here. On Reddit, if you miss the first few hours, your comment will probably be unseen, so why bother?
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Yandex and Mail.ru have been removed as optional search providers in the drop-down search menu in Firefox.0·3 years agoI’m talking about privacy and freedom respecting services going out of their way to submit to western politics. I like my services unbiased.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Yandex and Mail.ru have been removed as optional search providers in the drop-down search menu in Firefox.1·3 years agoFucking hell Mozilla. First DuckDuckGo, now Firefox. And Brave still refuses to pull its head out of its ass to be a viable alternative. The Fediverse continues to prove that it is the future for people like us, fuck corporations.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Company that routes SMS for all major US carriers was hacked for five years1·4 years agoJust five? I’m pretty sure the NSA had access to all their messages since at least 2001.
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•[Meta] Could be please not transform this community into another shithole for Usonian news?0·4 years agoI agree, but that is very subjective, don’t you think? I’m interested for example in the post that said Trump is suing Twitter. I won’t waste time reading the article most probably, but the news is amusing nonetheless. So what decides whether something is interesting enough to the whole globe or not?
MarcellusDrum@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•[Meta] Could be please not transform this community into another shithole for Usonian news?0·4 years agoImho, as long as the title isn’t clickbaity, its okay. We shouldn’t reach a stage where “Trump should be impeached” is an acceptable headline, like /r/politics
I can’t manage to make Kate look half descent on Mint (Cinnamon). It does look great on Plasma
