Do you really want me to answer that for you? Is it really that hard to think for yourself?
Alright then... You get either one or the other, there's no way out of that whether you make a choice or not. Wouldn't you still want to influence the choice so you get the one that hurts a lot less?
I'd say the problem with Linux is not so much with beginner users, it's easy enough to setup a basic desktop with a web browser and some tools, but with intermediate users who know enough to be dangerous on Windows and think that makes them "advanced", who then can't apply their clickety clackety ways of figuring things out on Linux.
What if you really want a warm hug but you only have the choice between a poke in the eye with a sharp stick and not a poke in the eye?
You still choose "not a poke in the eye", dumbo.
I read that as librarians and was very confused.
I feel like that's more a boomer thing.
You need to turn on ambient occlusion. That should fix it.
So this is a huge pet peeve of mine: Flemish is not a separate language. It refers to a region inside of Belgium where Dutch is the official language. The Dutch and the Flemish share the same standard language.
I know dialects exist, and those can be considered a language on their own, but there is no unified Flemish dialect. West-Flemish for example is distinctly different from other dialects spoken in Flanders like Brabandic or Limburgish, and variants of Limburgish and Brabandic dialects are spoken in large areas of the Netherlands as well. So it doesn't make sense to create a distinction between "Dutch" and "Flemish".
The differences are on the level of American English vs. Australian English vs. British English. Or Austrian German vs. Swiss German vs. Bavarian German vs. North German ... So if those are not singled out, it doesn't make sense to separate Flemish from Dutch.
put Germans back to work
Well they weren't wrong ... :-/
You don't even have to NAT the fuck out of your network. NAT is usually only needed in one place: where your internal network meets the outside world, and it provides a clean separation between the two as well, which I like.
For most internal networks there really are no advantages to moving to IPv6 other than bragging rights.
The more I think about it, the more I find IPv6 a huge overly complicated mistake. For the issue they wanted to solve, worldwide public IP shortage, they could have just added an octet to IPv4 to multiply the number of available addresses with 256 and called it a day. Not every square cm of the planet needs a public IP.
People have choices. If they want to keep using the Lemmy.ml community, that’s their freedom. The alternatives exist, if they want to switch, they can.
Because network effect is a thing, it's really the illusion of choice. When a lemmy.ml community has 50k subscribers and the equivalent lemmy.world or programming.dev community has just a tenth of that, it's not really a choice. People will always gravitate towards ml and the smaller community will never gain critical mass unless some strong enough outside force influences that decision.
Which brings me to ...
Intrigued by your name change, you are really pushing for this.
I think defederation from lemmy.ml together with raising awareness about ml should be the outside force to move communities off lemmy.ml.
If you use shred instead of rm to delete a file, the contents should be unrecoverable for all practical intents and purposes.
I don't believe shred can work recursively on a directory structure, like rm, so you'll have to cobble something together with the find command I guess.
I'd rather go home at 17:00 and do all those things with my real friends, or you know, spend some quality time with my partner.
