Hell, at this point, it isn’t even power tripping, it’s just plain fuckery. Some people just like seeing shit stirring around.

Which, I guess that could apply to SMCF (the OP) as well, but that’s different lol, we enjoy that brand of fuckery. Well, I do.

BPR

However, it’s still crappy moderation because they can’t be bothered to address it correctly

Eh, it worked for me the best back when I was new to Linux, and I’ve never tried anything that was better, just different since then.

I went through the usual Ubuntu experiment, but their baked in DE at the time was just unpleasant. Tried manjaro? I think, it’s hard to recall if that was before or after that initial flurry of trying things out. But there were a half dozen that got suggested back on the Linux for noobs subreddit when win10 came along amd I was noping out.

Mint did the trick. Cinnamon as a DE did what I wanted, how I wanted it. It came with the stuff I needed to get started, and the repo had the stuff I wanted without having to add anything. It worked with all my hardware without jumping through hoops.

I’ve tried other stuff and like I said, nothing better, just different, so why screw around?

Tbh, that’s also how I feel about pretty much everything I tried though. If I had run into one of the others that happened to “fit” the same way back then, I’d likely still be with it because there’s really not a ton of difference in day to day use between any of them. The de matters more in that regard, imo.

Eh, I get the rule. On the surface, it seems stupid because the subject of rom options is pretty integral to privacy

However, discussion of roms tends to always devolve into what amounts to fanboyism at some point. You end up with a lot of “yeah, but” and “but they are/aren’t” that covers the same ground every single time, and users have to wade through the bullshit to get to anything useful.

It’s the same conversation every time, so you reach a point where it’s better to just outright ban rom/os so that other issues aren’t drowned by that.

It’s damned if you don’t damned if you do, there’s no good choice, so you make the choice that’s less hassle on average

Not just PTB stupid PTB

Oh, I get it. I’m looking at switching to graphene despite it needing a Google phone.

I’m just saying that people see Google and changes in an article, it’s not weird for them to immediately assume something hinky is going on

Google has broken trust so often, so severely, that it’s the default to not trust anything they do, ever.

If they can, they absolutely will leverage basic security measures for their own benefit. And, it isn’t like there’s no press by governments to backdoor all the things.

So it shouldn’t boggle the mind at all. This is what happens when oligarchs and their servants run amok, nobody can trust anything.

Nice :)

I guarantee you that teacher still tells their side of the story

How do you mean?

Fuck

Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language today is the word “fuck”.

It is a magical word which, just by its sound can describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate. In language, “fuck” falls into many grammatical categories.

It can be used as a verb both transitive (John fucked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was fucked by John).

It can be an action verb (John really gives a fuck),

a passive verb (Mary really doesn’t give a fuck),

and adverb (Mary is fucking interested in John),

or as a noun (Mary is a terrific fuck).

It can also be used as an interjection (Fuck! I’m late for my date with Mary).

It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy, fuck she’s also stupid).

As you can see there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word fuck.

Aside from its sexual connotations, this word can be used to describe many situations:

1. Greetings…“How the fuck are ya?”

2. Fraud…“I got fucked by the car dealer.”

3. Resignation…“Oh, fuck it!”

4. Trouble…“I guess I’m fucked now.”

5. Aggression…“Fuck you!”

6. Disgust…“Fuck me.”

7. Confusion…" What the fuck…?"

8. Displeasure…“Fucking shit man…”

9. Lost…“Where the fuck are we?”

10.Disbelief…“Unfuckingbelievable!”

11.Retaliation…“Up your fucking ass!”

12. Apathy…“Who really gives a fuck?”

13. Suspicion…“Who the fuck are you?”

14. Directions…“Fuck off.”

It can be maternal…“Motherfucker!”

It can be used to tell time…“It’s four fucking twenty!”

It can be used as an anatomical description…“He’s a fucking asshole.”

Lastly, it has been used by many notable people throughout history:

“What the fuck was that?” -Mayor of Hiroshima

“That’s not a real fucking gun.” -John Lennon

“Where the fuck is all this water coming from?” -Captain of the Titanic

“Who the fuck is gonna find out?” -Richard Nixon

“Heads are gonna fucking roll.” -Anne Boleyn

“Any fucking idiot could answer that.” -Albert Einstein

“It does so fucking look like her!” -Picasso

“You want what on the fucking ceiling?” -Michaelangelo

“Fuck a duck.” -Walt Disney

“Houston, we have a big fucking problem.” - The crew of Apollo 13

Not original content

Yeah, me too, but we’re looking backwards.

The guy was in an era where the things he espoused and challenged were not looked well upon, and he caught flak from the general populace because of that.

Remember, he was an early anti-spanking proponent, though mostly in schools afaicr. He had pretty strong beliefs about other stuff that was going against the grain of assumed norms in other ways too

So, parents seeing the watered down version of his reasoning and objecting to it, it makes sense they might just associate anything related to him as unwelcome too.

Yeah, big chunks of his ideas have been shown to function as he said now, but there’s still academic criticism of some of it. Mostly down to flaws on a procedural level, or with some of the assumptions he made in formulating his ideas. But to anyone taking psych classes nowadays, he’s at worst a little outdated, and often is seen as one of the more important figures in the field

I mean, if you’re dangling bait, don’t be surprised when the trout start biting.

Bpr, absolutely.

I mean, I get it, ml really does take that extra attention because if the community is there, or a user is from there, chances are that you’re going to run into zealotry eventually.

But when you make the effort to poke at the scab, it’s not really on them when they poke back.

Truth is, of wouldn’t even need to be .ml, if you did something similar anywhere, a temp ban is legit. Shit stirring can only be tolerated so much, so you have to make it clear that is isn’t going to work out the way the stirrers want, otherwise it snowballs

Because murder is frowned on, and I’d need more ammo than I can afford to get the job done

Ki-yay, motherfucker

Duh

Nothing, but it can trigger symptoms that feel similar.

Yeah, you definitely need to see a doctor.

I’m assuming the er doc was giving you the easier to understand numbers, but a “7” would still be a good bit higher than you’d expect to see in someone with no damage to the heart muscle unless there’s something else weird going on.

Nobody online can tell you what’s going on, obviously, but I would consider this an urgent matter. It isn’t absolutely a heart issue, but none of the things that can cause elevated troponin are beneficial. With a normal EKG, you weren’t having an immediate issue, but I would definitely be calling your GP now to get the ball rolling. Most of the things that would have your troponin levels to be at that range are very treatable, as in after treatment, the problem is resolved and only needs monitoring over time. The rest are still treatable, but may need more than monitoring.

So don’t fuck around about it, but also don’t panic.

With the ER doc not being overly concerned after two tests (which is the norm; changes in levels matter a good bit), it isn’t something where you have to see your doctor now, as in go and camp out in the office until you’re seen. But I would say to request the earliest possible appointment because they probably will refer you to a cardiologist, and the sooner you get the referral, the sooner you’re seen by one.

Again, don’t panic, your health isn’t ideal, but since it’s confirmed you didn’t have a heart attack, chances are really good that with treatment and lifestyle changes, you’re going to be fine long term.

Sorry, but YDI.

Curation of sources is part and parcel of any community. There was no overreach here, and no excessive action taken

It’s right fucking here, you fucking fuck, right fucking here

Oh no, the things I like aren’t in pop culture currently! That must mean other people suck, rather than just being that trends shift constantly.

I hate to say this, but grow up. Whatever you think of your favorites, nobody else is obliged to think the same, and them not liking has nothing to do with them being dreamers or not. The whole concept is absurd in the first place, and people have been saying the same thing about whatever is currently popular instead of what was popular when they were young since the beginning of recorded music. I suspect something similar was in place before then too.

Besides, you picked one band that’s still hugely influential and popular. The other one, Crimson, less so, but still a fairly influential band in the right circles.

But, I notice you didn’t harken back to the jazz era, or classical. Why didn’t whatever your generation is show how great a bunch of dreamers they were/are by digging back into that? Or into the blues mosaic that led to rock, which led to prog rock? There’s a whole lot of dreamers you skipped in your listing.

Hell, you entirely ignored folk music as it existed before recording, which was and is the heart of democratized music performed by small groups rather than big orchestras or solely for the enjoyment of the wealthy.

Which is ignoring that you assume wrongly that more modern forms of music have some kind of hole in them where no insight exists. Which is outright blind and deaf. You think hip-hop doesn’t give insight into the human condition? Especially when it’s addressing systemic injustice and the state of society’s denigration of people of color?

Nah, dude, this post, your hot take on music? It points to you lacking insight, to you lack imagination and thought beyond whatever it is that gets your jollies.

Ahhh, considering the rules of the community, the nature of the post itself, that’s ptb.

I can’t say it’s PTB, just ptb, because it’s more stupid than serious power tripping in the literal sense, but why the fuck that comment was the one to get removed out of all the rest, I have no clue.

Definitely overreach, jokes are specifically allowed, and nothing in that comment approaches anything resembling rudeness to another user, there’s no hidden bigotry, and it’s a fucking meme C/. Like, damn.

Yeah, not every joke hits, but that’s for votes to sort out.

However, fuck your title here. There’s times and places where that kind of joke is fine, but in a title on a community that isn’t humor based ain’t it
