In some situations, unfortunately yes. Some schools will take the stupid "zero tolerance" stance so broadly. I do remember a few times growing up that the bullied kid would still get suspended(if they were lucky, at reduced length vs the bully, if enough evidence was available).

Often times (as should be) you're better off fighting back cuz both are gonna get in trouble.

Do other non ublock adblockers not have the ability to whitelist specific domains? Or are people just unaware of it? (Probably the latter id assume)

Yup. After my first tar PC, I refused them going forward.

Also, the cheap incenses (the ones that light instantly) can cause a similar scenario. I guess the moral here, clean your computers!

Probably intended for laptops

Ubuntus terminal isn't really hidden. The root user not being usable (heavily advised against) is a good thing for almost all situations (something I wish windows would also do by default).

Android is built entirely for mobile devices. Ya sure you CAN get it running on other devices, but why?

Friendly interfaces, is subjective tbh. I think I get where you're coming from.

Worked at Office Depot back in ~2012-2014. Was the lead tech, and was the primary hardware fix guy. Had a guy bring in this old dell clamshell case PC with an xp sticker. It and him already smelled...off. After discussing some issues (no power) and finishing the paperwork, I cracked it open. They came spilling out. Dead, alive, and various sized. All the droppings too. It was one of the first machines I refused to work on. The guy had no choice but to leave with it. Didn't really say much after that.

The only other PC that came close to that were those of chain smokers. Where the tar buildup was actually sticky to the touch, coating everything, outside and in.

I have one right by the entry to my kitchen. I do occasionally check it's pressure gauge. Mounted to the wall on a slide hook kinda thing.

Is this just a solar powered distillery? Seems like thunderf00t has done several videos on things like this before...

There's a missing third option: Don't use it at all.

Overall ya, but I've done my fair share of reimage or reinstall. Either because it would be faster(biz setting, Becky in accounting gotta get payroll done ASAP) or I just don't want the headache of it at that moment.

[–] terminhell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Not that I've ever seen. It usually means it's time to reinstall.

Valid points. I just don't care or give those platforms any real thought, or take them seriously at all. Maybe it's having been so desensitized to online opinions from the early days of of internet chat rooms or something.

With that said, I'm still no fan in general, of speech censorship. I'm not right or left either. And I'll take my down votes in stride as consequences of being able to share an opinion here.
