I adore VLC.

I've been using Linux Mint for almost a year and a half now: would recommend it to anyone ready to make a jump into Linux and away from Windows. It's quite friendly.

I'm also quite enjoying Sonarr to keep track of some older television shows that I enjoy.

I enjoy that Mr. Torvalds is referred to as an "emperor penguin."

That is all.

Followed!

We've done something awful, as a society.

Litigation in 3... 2... 1...

It's a tough decision.

There's a target on the collective back of Lemmy, its developers and this instance. Rooting out these issues early is part of it. One of my first recommendations to @[email protected] was to start putting aside contribution dollars from donors for a legal fund to manage liabilities like this. This decision is just solid management and avoiding issues well ahead of time.

I wish the admins well. And for those who have had their communities 'snipped' from being connected to Lemmy.world, I hear you. It's hard when you have built a connection and a sense of self on a platform, and then it becomes severed. That's hard.

I read this article a couple of years ago about the subject. Apparently, one part was ease and rapidity of rolling updates with the likes of Arch, and another part of wanting a bit more experimental nature of Arch versus steady-as-she-goes and stable Debian. It's a rather neat discussion and debate.

Glorious.

There is this guy who killed 40,000 elephants because he thought it'd improve the environment.

His name was Allan Savory.

Anyways, it was a poor decision, which harmed the natural regrowth of grasses in Africa. And probably contributed to drought and poor soil conditions there. Sadly, he has been regarded as an expert and heralded as an environmentalist par excellance. So, less of a stupid prize for him than a poor prize for humanity writ-large.

I'm still grieving the Reddit that was.

Now, I'm excited for the threadiverse that could be.

Awww, man.

Now I'm sad.

Thanks a lot, @orion2145. Not cool.
