oh I saw the picture and assumed it was more than two. Planting plants seems very difficult. Plants are cool. They can eat dirt pretty much. I want to be a plant
sbird@lemmy.worldto Buy Canadian@lemmy.ca•The full guide to switching from big US tech to supporting more ethical and Canadian-based companies! (Redone with OSs added)English1·2 days agobrowsers: Librewolf (privacy stuff), Floorp (very customisable)
search: SearXNG (the all of all worlds, no ads, self-hosted!)
music: Navidrome (self-hosted)
office suites: OnlyOffice (it works well for me and is pretty decent)
OS: Fedora (is also user-friendly…)
that is not a couple. 6 is not a couple.
On an actual note, that’s pretty cool. :D
When Win11 first released, the idiot I was (or maybe still am) decided to install it on my ancient laptop because it was the newest one. It had a 6th gen i3, 4GB of memory, and 128GB storage. Didn’t have TPM 2.0, so I found a workaround (forgot what it was but I did) and when I installed it, it CHUGGED.
I even installed Unity on the thing because I liked game development, and when I tried to mouse click while it was running, it took a good half a minute to register (and I somehow put up with this for like a couple years). Even without Unity, I remember the battery life being a lot worse and simple apps took ages to load.
Once I got a new laptop and learned that Linux isn’t voodoo computer magic and had a usable GUI, I installed Mint on my old laptop to try it out, and it was FAST. Gone were long load times. The battery at this point had completely died so it only powers on when connected to the wall, but the laptop felt like it was new again. The screen was still garbage so I wouldn’t use it as my daily driver, I much prefer my current laptop. If I ever got a new laptop, I would definitely install Linux again. (honestly I’m just not bothered to re-setup everything on Linux and backup all my data and settings and such on my current laptop, don’t think I have a thumb drive large enough to back up everything)

edit: maybe they switched from github to forgejo a bit later?

yeah my idea is stupid. Your idea of setting wages based on experience could be good
This is a really stupid idea, indeed. To be fair, the idea that the lowest paid employee should be some % of the CEO’s does make sense. Maybe not 10%, but a % would be better than minimum wage. It would also mean that CEOs can’t just keep on increasing their wages every year
Linux Mint is a nice and easy distro that is quite good :D
SearXNG is the best of ALL worlds. You can get results from every search engines, there’s no ads, and it’s self-hostable
I like SearXNG, you get all of all worlds
