Oh, we use all kinds of slurrs for that. Actually, to avoid slurs you can say "guau", which sounds like "wow".

Is it still kicking? Wow, never thought I'd come back to Dillo, Midori, Epyphany (GNOME Web) and links.

I was curious and done with the malware. Living in a very small city in some third world country where the internet was only for some government offices, higher social classes, universities and one or two cyber cafes, grabbing a Linux CD was a daunting task. I got a set of RedHat CDs but couldn't make it boot in my own PC (a Compaq).

Life got me living in Mexico City to get my BS and suddenly I got many more options to try this Linux thing. Mandrake was now the go-to distro for beginners, since Ubuntu was not a name yet. Installed the Linux, loved it. After discovering the DE variety, I distrohopped for years. It was easier for me to download a Live CD somewhere, often at my University, than changing DE in my offline PC. At that time Mandrake became Mandriva, and I distrohopped between Zenwalk, Slackware, Fedora Core, Dreamlimux (lesser known Debian-based Brazilian distro), then got Ubuntu CDs by mail (they used to send them for free, and even included stickers!), and I settled there until Unity.

I once took a photograph of a pack of batteries that stated the warranty didn't cover sudden battery discharges due to acts of God, or something like that.

Even in Mexico City, unless you sacrifice a bit living in some tricky location.

So you can fuck anyone, in any situation, without worrying about contraception.

Therefore the balls, it figures. Some other comment includes a song by Primus vocalist from three years ago, unashamedly titled "Zelensky, the man with the iron balls". And yeah, this trend of talking about his balls, I remember it started several years ago, but it amazes me right now, after years of war and loss.

I wish. It's the only smartwatch I'd buy after some awful experiences. Well, the Pebble and little better version is the PineTime.

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 days ago

Smartwatches. Seriously, they are all working perfect one day, and next day they die. Wanna change the battery? Good luck keeping them out of the water, if you happen to find and replace the battery at all, which isn't cheap anyway.

What are you talking about? You can write your own post, or even create a community, to talk about testicles, so-called bravery, and or all kinds of balls. I've read the answers, not dismissed anything.

That's not gonna settle anything. Someone here felt the need to explain to me that praising the balls of someone, even a woman, it's seen as a mean to praise bravery. No need to measure Zelensky's balls unless, of course, for science.

Just that. Someone uploaded this photo of Zelensky allegedly taking a selfie in Kupiansk, which is supposed to be a city already taken by Russian forces. I am not really informed of the situation in Kupiansk, but this is not the issue for me.

In the Politics subreddit, where this was published, the comments are overwhelmingly pro Ukraine, which, well, checks out. But what I find kind of trollish, are the comments surrounding Zelenksy. It's like reading the five-star comments of the Google Play Services app in the Play Store, or something. They repeatedly talk about how big and glorious are Zelensky's balls? Praising his balls, even though, he is a smaller guy? They praise the bold actions of Zelensky calling him a European hero, imagining his heroic dialogues as in some cheap hollywood movie, etc. To me, it just feels utterly fake? I mean, AI fake.

What do you make of this, guys? Please, remember, it's not about the conflict itself.

Wholesome news that are very hard to find, both because they are wholesome and because a lot of media owners don't like it!

So, we sheltered this kitten for a few weeks and she easily got a home a day ago after we announced with a poster. We just delivered and we're crushed.

PS: I just couldn't upload an image. Sorry for that too. Just wanted to expel it.

Years ago, when Owncloud was still the only self hosted cloud solution around, the Music app used to come with an Ampache backend to connect to your music through client apps. My favorite for Android was Power Ampache, it was almost the only one, that and an extension for the really old Just Player. After a while, a Subsonic server was added to the Music app and these Subsonic clients proliferated. So, I switched to a Subsonic client, then another, and another... none was really doing it for me. DSub is great but looks dated and lacks some features, others are not mature enough, and some I just find too barebones.

Recently, Power Ampache 2 was released, and even though it's still in beta or even alpha, it already looks great and my favorite client again. Check it out if you have an Ampache server or a Nextcloud instance with music!

So, I was having a hard time trying to update Nobara 38 to Nobara 39. Did the KDE swap, followed the website instructions to upgrade but in the last part, after:

$sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=39 -y

I'd get:

Error: Transaction test error:

file /usr/lib64/libopenh264.so.2.3.1 conflicts between attempted installs of noopenh264-0.1.0~openh264_2.3.1-2.fc39.x86_64 and openh264-2.3.1-2.fc39.x86_64

Tried several solutions to this without success but noticed it's just that two packages in the upgrade are trying to write the same file. My solution was to just disable the openh264 Cisco repo for the upgrade with:

$sudo dnf config-manager --set-disabled fedora-cisco-openh264

You can do this also in the Diskover preferences.

After disabling the Cisco repo you can proceed with:

$sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=39 -y

$sudo system-upgrade reboot

Then, after a successful upgrade, go to Diskover > Preferences and enable (check) the fedora_cisco_openh264 repo. Finally, do perform a system update with Nobara update tool. Install whatever it tells you it's missing and then you are done.

Figured I'd share this here since the threads in Reddit don't show any clear fix to the problem. Hope someone can use it.

You guys seem to think my boy is all cute when he is angry, but he's some kind of monster of the week from the X-Files when he's scolding at my face! Here is proof.

So, Rulfo (aka Chochi) had been following me all over the house meowing loudly at me for like half an hour. I sat on the table, he followed me of course. Sat right next to me and continued meowing at my face. This is he, an instant before one of his reprimands.

I didn't want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I'm right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did something to stop this madness.

Are you doing something about this? Are you feeling unsettled? How do you feel about all this mess?

EDIT: So, buying Chinese stuff takes the USS Gerald Ford to Gaza’s coast. Also, TIL that that chocolate my cousin gave me when she was 20 and I was 5, (delicious stuff!) made me a slavist-ish. The fact remains, this genocide is being paid and supported by taxpayers money; of course, I was hoping that most of us didn’t pay taxes wishing for this. Thank you all for your responses, some of them were hard to swallow.
