You just answered yourself. Just call it CUNAFHC - Collaborative Union of Not-Absolute-Fuck-Head-Countries
My parents are almost completely technological-illiterate (i.e. due to old age my father doesn’t even have a cellphone nor knows how to use it, and my mother barely can know how to do calls in her phone - both of them don’t know how to use a computer) but they know they don’t know about stuff - so hearing stories like that kind of make me be thankful they’re like that and that they will hear me when needing some advice or need to do something involving something tech-y
You know, besides the funny/cute/interesting videos that made it to its home page that I save to show them to my mother, the only other reason I haven’t deleted Reddit yet is the r/forhire sub.
Of course, not a Linkedin alternative per se, but it seems to me there have been people that has found full time jobs thanks to that sub. I’ve had the chance to get some small gigs and earn some extra bucks working for great people (and being scammed by awful people in other “similar” subs, but that’s another story).
I was bummed when I got here and found out there are some similar communities here but with almost no subscriptors and no posts whatsoever.

I mean, not that there have been tons of successive civilizations around here, so… And yet if that was the case, you’ll need to take in account that oral lore may have had a hand in the names of places, so it’s mostly improbable that a place has had completely different names with each civilization.
(Edit: people downvoting/replying to this thinking I was talking just about the USA is hilarious - reddit syndrome much?)
In my third world country the real issue is about costs. At this very moment cooking with gas is cheaper than cooking with electric.
The gas provider company mandates an inspection on every home gas apppliance and the installation every 5 years to check for good connections and correct ventilation (if a home does not pass the checks the service is suspended), so I guess at least it diminishes the risks to some degree.
But still since gas is going to be a lot expensive in the following weeks, maybe the tables will turn. But then you’ll need to get an electric stove.
I really wish we could actually “rename” places as their original indigenous names across all America(s). For example my country had an internal turmoil just to keep the original name of its capital city because we love our native people, and yet we keep the incredibly stupid name of “Land of Colon” (imho most probably the most stupid name of any country, ever) because fuck our native people.
My father was a farmer for pretty much all of his life (since he could work until he couldn’t) and had a crop of cilantro at one time. I never knew nor heard about somebody saying that cilantro tastes like soap, never even imagined it was a thing. It was only until a few years ago when I started to get my nose into Reddit when I read about people saying that.
What’s ridiculous is that people expect one software to behave the same as other software when the FOSS software does not imply in any way that it is a clone of a proprietary software
Well, that was exactly my point.
I edited several videos for work precisely 2-5 years ago and it was really good. That surprised me in the good sense because last time I tried it before that was like in 2010 and was rather funky, but so was my crappy laptop. And there’s been a while since that and since KDE brought it to attention and the fundraising and you name it and it seems it has improven even more. Maybe with time it can be another famous representative from KDE targeted towards content creation as now it is Krita.
That being said, I just can’t take any “review” from a “normie” about FOSS stuff seriously because most of the time they come from a propietary software mindset.
Take for example reviews about Inkscape or GIMP and you’ll find most of them mentioning “they’re not as usable as Photoshop/Illustrator”. So people expect any alternative to work exactly as their non-foss counterpart, which is absolutely ridiculous.

Can confirm, just got phishing mail “from Codeberg” containing the n word in its subject (?)
Oh no, don’t thank me - thank Lawnchair devs! Their launcher is actually great (well at least for me it is, hope that it is for you too).
I’m seeing a “Gestures” section in Lawnchair which has the following:
Each one of them has the following options:
Not sure if this are the exact names they show up in english, though
I like Fossify’s, but I won’t recommend it - it has no predictive text and no symbols on its main keyboard, the first which is a huge deal for almost everyone. Not sure if they’re working on those or if it will never get those features, because if it had those two it would be the perfect keyboard because it’s so great in every other sense.
I’d like to know which one is creating /.Trash-1000. Yes, at the root folder. No, I don’t have any other OS installed in this system but linux
Yes but then you’d need NATO’s approval. Remember how Erdogan put all sorts of 'but’s to Finland and Sweden, countries with way more wealth (and more arguments to be included in NATO) than one like mine
