!asian@lemmy.world -> Discussion for Asian people and issues. Searching Asian is disappointing since it is just a bunch of NSFW stuff that reinforces colonial stereotypes about Asian women serving white people as sex slaves.

!debian@lemmy.ml -> Discussion about Debian Linux

!nba@lemmy.world -> Discussion about the National Basketball Association, and basketball in general.

!system76@lemmy.world -> Discussion about the US reseller of Coreboot Linux laptops. Surprising that System76 staff in general still uses Reddit heavily.

!laclippers@lemmy.world -> Los Angeles Clippers, the team that has represented blue collar basketball fans since forever.

Sometimes I wonder if articles like this, displayed prominently at WaPo and CNN last night, are meant to paint all climate scientists and people who worry about the environment in a bad light, so that any discussion about the climate is tainted.

I can hear the Joe Rogan bros at work parroting, "Micro seconds per century hyuk hyuk" with no further thought. And then later complain about skyrocketing housing insurance, increased food prices from this year's drought, and the record setting heat and AC bills, like they are three separate unrelated events.

Great program. Needs better pay and more funding. A pathway for future federal service and job experience for young adults.

I assume programs like this, that we need to grow and to give more funding, would be eliminated depending on the results of this election.

Also since the article kept giving me popups about registering for $1, I archived it here: https://archive.ph/MM8WG

I saw this in a magazine and it was so cool looking. A few months later I got Linux on CD and never looked back. That 3D Motif/fvwm look was amazing.

Funny enough, my BIOS did not support booting from CD. I remember in DOS, I had to load MSCDEX from a floppy but I have no recollection on how I actually booted and installed Linux from CD.

When it's still green and hard.

Shred it, make papaya salad.This is what I spent a lot of my holidays doing as a kid.

I never knew people let it get soft until I moved to South America. I didn't even know the orange stuff was the same fruit.

Also, mangoes are best when still green and crunchy dipped in spicy powder.

This should be a national law.

It's about as fast as a Haswell desktop, but a fraction of the power usage. It will run any modern OS.

$1/day after discounts and rebates. Right now that is in the Pixel / Nord range.

Just the successor to pine. It works with IMAP and SMTP.

I've tried elm and mutt many years ago back in the 90s and pine was the easiest. So I guess I just stayed there and it works over my ssh connections too. To be honest, the number of personal emails that I've written over the past several years can be counted in the dozens so it's not that important to change any more.

Me either. My longest install is about to turn 5, but that's an OpenBSD closet laptop server that gets upgraded remotely with every release.

I'm doing okay on this laptop; just hit 1 year on bookworm. But I'm also bandwidth constrained (kilo-bits per second) and can't really distrohop like I used to.
