I have to upgrade my Mint install every two years
I know you’re joking around here, but you don’t have to upgrade every two years. You can use an LTS release instead, or, on the opposite of the spectrum, a rolling release.
Release schedule and duration of support should always be factored into the decision of choosing a distro.
Save your sanity and do Settings -> Blocks -> Block instance -> lemmy.ml
I approve this comment.

Even the oldest millennials were just toddlers when the C64 was relevant, so this is not a typical millennial experience at all. It’s really a GenX thing… so once again we are forgotten.
I would say millennials’ computer experience starts in the late DOS/Win3.11 era at the very earliest, but more typically in the Windows 9x and early XP era. So even IRQ/DMA/config.sys/autoexec.bat fuckery is not that typical.
Now we’ve got to fucking participate in it?
Ah yes, killing all those innocent civilians hidden in incoming Iranian ballistic missiles…
I guess it’s why some Jellyfin streams started transcoding for me.
You’re better off using the Jellyfin Media Player standalone application anyway.
All true, yet it has nothing to do with what we are discussing, so why are you muddying the water with it?
my body, my choice
It’s a bit more complicated than that with transplants. Should people for example be able to sell their kidney to the highest bidder? That’s also “my body, my choice”. And should doctors be forced to participate in such a scheme?
A transplant system should consider fairness, equality and possible abuse. Obviously I think it should be possible to donate to a loved one, but we should also be careful not to create a system where the rich get priority, because they can pay more, and where poor people could be financially pressured to give up their bodily integrity by having to sell an organ.
We’re explicitly talking about a situation where the donor is suitable. So I don’t know what kind of information you’re trying to add here.
Even if her partner could donate his own liver, it should still go to a better recipient
That’s nonsense, because the partner would not donate his liver if it went to someone else.
It’s apparently a hobby and to be competitive, you need to be able to spew bullshit at amazing rates. Personally I’ve maxed out at 140 wpm
I’m limited by the rate at which I can think of bullshit.
yet all I needed is a “this side up” symbol …
So it seems they do indeed clean up the modlog… my bans are still in there, but all mod actions where they removed China critical comments are no longer there.
I’m not sure how they accomplish that
If they have database access, which they would have being the admins, they can do anything.
In the fallout, we learn a little bit about mental health in open source.
Reminded me of this, relevant as always, xkcd:
You should boycott Microsoft instead. As you say, they’re the ones permitting it.
