Capitalist system = we'll acknowledge climate change only when it will seriously begin to hurt our bottom line. By then, it will be already too late. Earth will be f***ed.

Sound advice. During my first year of computer science, one of my professors told me that programming languages are just a tool to solve a problem. The logic to solve it is the key. Whether it's Java, Python, Go, etc. If you don't know how to tell the computer what to do, you can't program anything in any language.

What in the actual f*&%:

According to park officials, the man, who was with three friends, climbed out of his vehicle and walked towards the animals to take photos.

So tourists think that they are domesticated animals?! They're not dogs. Respect nature.

My experience was with Apple News. When I wanted To cancel before the end date, it told me I would lose access to the trial.

Unfortunately, a lot of companies do this now, including Apple. I made it a habit to create a reminder to cancel before the end date.

Thank you for your awesome work!

Yup, and now it will bite him in the ass. Imagine if we had coalition governments in Canada that actually represented the Canadian voice. The parties will have to make concessions and actually talk to each other like in a marriage.

I like to think of instances as countries. Each instance has its own rules and culture, and that affects how the communities are moderated. For example, the beehaw.org instance is heavily moderated compared to lemmy.world. Continuing with our example, the Technology community on beehaw.org will be moderated differently than the Technlology community on Lemmy.world.

So each instance has its own reason for existing. Another example will be https://lemmynsfw.com/ which is an 18+ instance. Basically, when you register in an instance, you become a citizen of that country.

So in summary, each instance has its own rules, its own policies, its own culture, and the moderators of the community that is that instance are bound by them. So unixporn@lemmy.world is not the same as unixporn@lemmy.ml.

Indeed. I have an AMD video card and multi-monitor VRR works beautifully in Wayland. But unfortunately, according to some replies (and yours), Nvidia doesn't support it yet.

[–] Mereo@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

It's really unfortunate. Multi-monitor VRR is a must as I'm a gamer and I'd like my second monitor to be active when I'm playing, so I can use Discord and browse game guides, for example. I think I'll continue to buy AMD graphics cards until this issue is resolved.

You can always use Endeavour OS. It's Arch with a nice installer and some utilities already installed to make it easier to use and maintain. It uses Arch repositories, so for all intents and purposes, it is Arch. Manjaro is not.
