- American casualties, not total
On Eternity for Lemmy, its super easy.
After the election. I decided I just needed to take a break from the constant stream of negativity. Using these keywords in my post filter has removed political posts almost completely:
Trump, Kamala, Vance, Walz, Biden, Harris, Donald, Republican, Republicans, Democrat, Democrats, GOP, DNC, MAGA, liberal, conservative, government, court, Military, NATO, Nazi, Election, genocide, fascist, fascism, Twitter, trans, gender, police, cop, cops, abortion, federal, Europe, U.S., American, China, Israel, Gaza, Palestine, Russia, Russian, Chinese, Ukraine, Cruz, Thomas,
I recognize my privilege of being able to ignore these posts temporarily, and hope to come back from my hiatus with the will to do something about our awful political situation.
Stellaris isn’t awful on deck, but it would be nice to have the console controller layout that ships with the XBox edition.
It helped me tremendously in college, and I still use it today, both for past knowledge retention, as well as learning some new things. It is an incredible tool.
As far as the learning curve goes, I would recommend this: just use it as is. You can dive down a rabbit hole of optimizing your learning approach and adding the right extensions, but that time is better spent just studying what you want to learn.
Use the Cloze format, keep cards limited to a couple sentences at most, and practice daily for a couple minutes, and you can’t go wrong.
Given the ridiculously low prices of all Steam Deck models, I imagine that the main revenue for Valve is mainly from increased game sales rather than profit from their hardware. If that’s the case, it makes sense to see Steam OS on as many devices as possible, even if they compete directly with the Steam Deck.
That being said, I’m just excited by any decision that puts Linux in front of more users.
The nice thing about limiting my social media presence to Lemmy and Mastodon is that I haven’t seen their marketing slop anywhere.
I’d recommend everyone to buy a Kobo over these, it’s much easier to read your own .pdf and .epub files than on a Kindle.
I have the Framework 13 and am currently running the COSMIC alpha on Pop!_OS. I love my current setup, but have tried Fedora Kinoite as well, and also had a great experience. Apart from running a few commands to get the fingerprint reader working, I haven’t really had to troubleshoot anything. Its been a solid experience from Day 1.
To add, Mull is on FDroid, which means you don’t have to rely on Google Play or the Aurora Store!
