Yea, just post them directly if the instance allows it.

Yea, I’d like to know as well. I’ve used both Debian and MX. Other than the control panel thing MX has I can’t really think of any discernible differences.

Still can’t believe kids were taught that hiding under these would save their lives during a nuclear blast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWH4tWkZpPU

Aiming by the looks of it

It doesn’t have an orange tip and I’m no expert but looks like it may be based on the design of a real “pocket pistol” type gun and could be mistaken for a real gun. I imagine it can’t be sold to children as a result of that.

I think this article is aimed at Americans who generally have a shitter deal than we do here when in a minimum wage job. But yea, still not good enough.

Lol, the thread below this one starts with “So? Sure you can’t get rid of it but also you don’t have to use it.”

This is like if you’re renting an apartment and your landlord shows up to clear a clogged drain and whilst they’re in there they install a laundry chute to a room you don’t have access to.

You don’t pay for that room because you have no need for it and probably wouldn’t use it, but could if you want to. Or you can just deal with it being there. Or you can put something in front of the chute to hide it. But it’s an inconvenience having to do that and it wasn’t there when you moved in so you weren’t planning on having to deal with it.

Also, you’ve got no way of knowing if your landlord is in that room with their ear up to the bottom of the chute, listening to your conversations.

Yea, Windows users act like it’s some kind of immovable object that you just have to deal with and that they’re so smart because they spend hours applying some dodgy hack by wading through that god awful registry editor rather than just editing config files and having full control over their system. Oh no but then they’d have to open the terminal which is such a problem for them.

Spoken like a true Stockholm syndrome Windows user.

Damn dude. Your response was far more eloquent than what I was cooking up. Thank you.

First time I’ve been sad that Lemmy doesn’t have karma like “the other place” used to.

He did. Just of C64 games that didn’t sell well

I sure do hope so

Now that would be fascinating. Britain has a deeply entrenched drinking culture. Regularly getting drunk to the point of vomiting and passing is very common. The managers where I work all live away and stay in hotels when they visit my town every other week. They all go out and get wasted on a Wednesday night (with company funds, totally legitimately) and often don’t come into work Thursday so they can drive home in the afternoon when they sober up. All totally normal.

Ban advertising, pub drinking and cheap supermarket booze. Inflate the price and run a massive anti-drinking campaign. It’d be interesting to see how long it’d take for the tide to turn. Also, if we end up going the way of America during prohibition with illicit alcohol flooding the streets, how long that would take to die down and for people to accept it.

But it’ll never happen. No politician is even going to think about limiting the availability of alcohol in this country. They’d be so unpopular it’d be political suicide for them and their party.

It’s increasingly rare all over. Rolling your own is cheaper but not by much these days. I always preferred the taste of self rolled when I did smoke but most smokers I’ve found, wherever you go, would prefer to smoke pre-rolled if they can

Keeping opiates illegal just causes the exact problems you’re discussing with the other substances, if not more. Opiates are addictive and potentially dangerous yes. So are most drugs, even the ones you mentioned. Yes it could be argued psychedelics are less harmful, there’s no real risk of overdose and minimal risk of addiction. I’d also rather live in a world where those are legalised if that’s all, rather than the one I’m in now where my country denies cancer patients cannabis but millions of tax payer’s pounds are wasted policing idiots drunk in alcohol every week. But let’s not pretend psychedelics are completely harmless.

Acting like so called “hard” drugs are some kind of black magic powders where one time trying them will have you hooked for life, ready to sell your own Mother as minced beef just to get your next hit is the same crap people used to say about the other drugs you’ve listed, including weed. Plenty of people consume them and lead productive lives.

Consenting adults shouldn’t be stopped from putting anything they want to into their own bodies. It’s called freedom.

If I start repeatedly slamming my own head into a wall, an action that could eventually kill me, as long as I own that wall or have the permission of the wall owner and I’m not getting noise complaints from the neighbours I can legally do it as much as I like.

But I can’t legally take the risk of accidentally overdosing on fentanyl. Despite the fact that legalising the drug would mean I can get my hands on product produced in labs which are licensed and vetted so I can see the strength of the substance and be fairly certain of its purity, making overdose infinitely less likely.

What kind of sense does that make?

Damn straight. But sadly weed is is still illegal in most countries, including France

This is the beginning. Soon weed shall be legal in all of Europe. And I won’t be able to enjoy it because I live in the UK 🤦‍♂️

There’s a few DVDs I bought recently of movies that I couldn’t find anywhere. 50/50 about uploading them to a torrent site. I want to but is there any way it could be traced back to me?
