The issue I had with my Asus ROG laptop was that EndeavourOS didn’t support the volume buttons on the keyboard, along with some other keys. It was annoying enough that I went to Manjaro.
I tried EndeavourOS, but it didn’t fully support my hardware like Manjaro does
I used to use Fedora on my Asus gaming laptop, and loved it. More recently I’ve chosen to switch over to Manjaro, because I wanted something based on Arch that was more lightweight than Garuda. Gotta love that Linux life.
You’re making me want to reread all of the books. GNU, Terry Pratchett.
Just want to clarify, as an Jewish American clergyman, the Israeli government is not our government. To say otherwise is to play into the Israeli propaganda which states “To be Jewish is to be Israeli, and to be Israeli is to be Jewish.” The fact that the Israeli government has twisted religion to serve its fascist goals is nauseating.
To be fair, the plague in Hebrew (Egyptian?) is צפרדע /tz’fardei’ah, which looks like a singular and not a plural. I totally see where he’s coming from. But also, I thought it was in Midrash Tanchuma.
חג פסח שמח!
What the hell, calculators with color screens? Back in my day our graphing calculators were black and gray and we were told to be happy, damn it.
It’s part of the training. People are happier when they have food in their mouths, so that’s why waitstaff wait until your mouth is full before asking. That way, they can avoid complaints.
My wife is finishing up a global health pediatric fellowship. She arrived in 2021, and I came out about a year later because I was finishing up chaplaincy training and I had a contract to finish out for a synagogue I was working for.
I see your point. I know that there are folks unhappy with the current government, but to be fair, who isn’t? The San have also been pretty fucked over by the government.
I have been living in Botswana for the past two years, and I’m genuinely surprised where it is on this list. Yeah, people here don’t have the greatest deal, but there’s freaking universal healthcare here. The country has been extremely politically stable since independence. There’s no way people are less happy here than those who are in active war zones.
Nuclear escalation always leads to great outcomes, right? Right?
I’m glad at least someone on Lemmy is talking about what’s been happening in Sudan. Too many of us are neglecting their plight, along with those in Ethiopia, The Ivory Coast, CAR and The DRC.
The “live, laugh, love” pillow is a nice touch. I wouldn’t mind this kind of poltergeist in my house…as long as they make good design choices.
Uh… Chanukkah is the least important holiday on the calendar. A shitty thing for this guy to do, but the high holy days were months ago.
I can understand why the government would want to do away with the colonial language. It’s a reminder of a dark time. However, the decision of what the official language(s) should be can lead to some tricky politics. If one local language is elevated, it gives an advantage to those who grew up speaking it. This is especially hard for minority languages from indigenous peoples.
An example of this is in Botswana, where I’m currently living. The Tswana people came up from South Africa and displaced indigenous populations like the San and Herero. After independence in 1966 from being a British protectorate, they made English the official language and Setswana the national language. English is used in education and government, but everyone is also expected to learn Setswana to function in society. For those who didn’t grow up speaking Setswana or who don’t learn it, it’s harder or impossible to get good healthcare or a good job.
Language politics can get really messy when there are lots of local languages. I worry about what might happen as a result of this decision.
My wife and I are caring for our 2 month old daughter, and this just scared me a bunch. We’re not using formula from the company in question, but the fact that this happens is terrifying.
I heard GLADOS as I was reading that too. I loved both games. Took me a long time to beat the single player of Portal 2, but damn it was worth it
Carl’s Jr has deemed you an unfit parent!
I remember the first time I soloed Lavos with Chrono. Helluva great feeling.
