I totally agree. Corporate interests and rampant consumerism have ruined the majority of the internet.

Glad we still have refuges like lemmy though to take solace in. Proportionally we’re a smaller part, but absolutely I’d say we’re about the same or larger than in the 2000s.

I want to install Debian on the USB drive from my currently running OS, Manjaro Linux.

I don’t want to have to boot from Debian installation media to install it on the USB drive.

I think it’s more fruitful to look at who benefits from the Ukrainian war.

Life for the average Ukrainian will not be radically different under Russian rule. Most of them will get up, go to work the same job they always have and funnel as much money as possible to those who already have it.

It just so happens that under Russian rule, Russian rulers will be making profit instead of Ukrainian rulers. The people actually fighting the wars never benefit and the ones who benefit never fight.

Personally, I’ve come to the conclusion that anyone who has the capacity and wisdom to know why wars are waged in the first place would never voluntarily fight in one.

It’s reinforced my philosophical idea that wars are just a way for humanity to purge the worst of itself.

Owner of original 60gb PS3 here.

It got very hot and eventually stopped working. It was under warranty and I got an 80gb replacement for $200 cheaper, but lost out on backwards compatibility which really sucked because I sold my PS2 to get a PS3.

Ahh, the old “it’s too difficult for us.”

If the gnome devs are so incompetent, why don’t they just get another job?
