both the basque and the catalonians have sought independence and were brutally pushed down by the conservative governments of the very recent past. the current left leaning government has made concessions to keep them on board; but the voting trends for the last 15 years makes it crystal clear that the conservatives will be in power again and both the catalonians and basque are well aware that the the peace will expire in the next election.

checkout out the treball channel on youtube; they did an entire one hour episode on the differences. tldr: they're all extremely minor and there's lots of them.

i always felt that one of the awesome things about the show was how ftl was considered antiquated technology and that, besides the military, only the older and the nicer ships had them; while the newer and much more common average ships didn't

something about a society that is both capable of traveling through the stars and has collectively forgotten where it had originated from in the galaxy; but widely considers both unimportant is super fascinating to me.

Holy fuck Culber… Hot damn.

i almost ran into the actor in new york back in 2008 on my bike while crossing the roosevelt bridge because he was shirtless and i was too busy staring at his very prominent pecs to watch where i was going; so agreed, he could definitely get it. lol

i think he looked back at me too; but i suspect it was to wonder wtf was wrong with the fat guy on the bike. lol

anedotally: it works fine if it's from a vendor who provides support for it. eg cumulus switches running fedora 9 but still getting updates from cumulus engineers.

Yeah, if porn is causing you these issues then you need to ask for help.

The rest of us don't have this issues unless you watch straight pron

It sounds like you're having difficulty w porn and you should seek help; for the rest of us, it's a non issue

When I tried tor it was so painfully slow that I have a difficult time imagining anything using it full time

Ah. Well if I’m not mistaken Lemmy is mostly Android / FOSS biased so I’m not surprised some people might have the “Apple bad” mindset. Honestly why do people care what products other people use? I read a comment the other day about an Android user despairing that some feature Google is implementing (don’t remember which) might make some Android users jump ship to Apple… Ok who cares? Why so much emotional investment in something so trivial? It sounds just as crazy when you flip it, “Oh no some of my Apple friends are switching to Android or PC” …. A phone is an everyday appliance. Do you care what brand your neighbor’s kitchen appliances are? That’s how you should feel about phones IMHO.

iphones are status symbols so they get to be ascribed w the same emotional irrationality that other status symbols get like cars and clothes.
