Can someone explain what is going on here?

Aside from global warming the world as a whole has been steadily improving. I think you are confusing the USA with the rest of the world. Empires collapse, it happens, that doesn't mean the whole world is on fire.

The difference here is that the ISP is up charging for multiple devices, meaning this isn't all being done for benevolent reasons.

The way many apartments work for non-students is each has its own WiFi. Honestly compared to how bad some Hall's WiFi is this is a better option, but it's not without problems. A lot of ISP routers either don't support or don't turn on by default DFS channels, 5.8GHz channels, 6 GHz band, or have WiFi 6 for BSS colouring. This means there will be loads of interference between adjacent WiFi networks.

It's really frustrating especially when you have ISPs like Virgin whose kit has DFS support, but despite touting smart wifi they just never enable it, and most people don't know to enable it either.

I don't think that the user ever supported trump. Rather they are pointing out the difference between incest and pedophilia. Both of which are illegal, but they aren't the same crime. Which isn't to say that someone can't be guilty of both. They very much can be guilty of both, and trump could well have done both, but you are looking at two separate things here and it's not a good idea to confuse the two.

The only person here debasing themselves is you as you are showing that you don't understand the difference between incest and pedophilia, and that you call everyone you disagree with a trump supporter.

No country in Europe is even close to the original definition of socialism. Having public health care is not socialism.

Okay you've still lost me, I don't know who this guy is

What is this referencing?

Making distribution illegal just leads to people getting a bad supply that leads to overdoses and poisoning.

You are acting like a helicopter parent. Stop it. People have the right to make decisions about their own bodies and health.

Also you really want to ban all recreational drugs? Congrats you just removed one of people's only outlets and caused more suicide, self-harm, and mental health issues.

Furthermore not even all drugs are addictive. Classical psychedelics actually are used to cure addictions, it's highly unlikely you become addicted to one. It's also one of the least dangerous forms of addiction you can have, and is better than whatever other addiction you would develop instead of if it weren't there.

It isn't impenetrable. ChromeOS and Android are Linux based after all. If you don't want to be prayed upon by Google you can use things like UBlue (inc. Aurora, Bazzite), PopOS, or Mint.

The advantage of PopOS and UBlue being you can download an image with Nvidia drives pre installed.

PopOS is a very mac like interface so you might not like it. Otherwise it's pretty much install and go, has good community support, and even comes pre installed on some high end machines.

In the case of UBlue they include images for specific manufacturers of laptops like ASUS, Framework, and Microsoft surface. You also get fully automatic atomic upgrades with rollback in case of failure, similar to Chrome OS. This means even if you do something very stupid like reboot in the middle of an OS update, it won't matter. It's engineered to be almost unbreakable even for new Linux users thanks to being partly immutable. You get a choice as well between varieties for normal users called Aurora, one of gamers called Bazzite, a development one called Bluefin, and a server version too. Being based on Fedora it's also reasonably up to date as well, but without sacrificing stability like Arch does.

Linux Mint is the classic easy to use Linux that runs on most computers made in the last 10 years and often older. It does sometimes struggle on newer machines with drivers though as it's not using an up to date kernel. What it's good for is that it pretty much just works when you have it installed and set up. It's popular so you should get plenty of community support. It's a quite similar interface to Windows while arguably looking better and definitely using less resources.

A hormone in the human body that's typically present in higher concentrations in females than males. Often given as HRT to trans women and post-menopausal women.

Yep used thinkpad and some kind of Linux sounds more like it.

Where is this person a mod? Is it a community known for TERFs?
