Software is made by people (good software, not slop) which who deserve a living too. Expensive, extortionate software pricing is a different thing.

Probably a trans woman? From the name and Fed instance.

I'm having a bit of an existential, morning crisis because I think I know where this photo was shot (in my local area) and the guy who walked baked as a local "celebrity".

It seems that Meta is low-key following the "everything app" goal that Elon Musk wanted for Twitter/X, tying products like WhatsApp, Instagram, Threads while at the same time distancing themselves from the Facebook brand.

For example, WhatsApp is a chat app that has been enhanced to have Business Accounts, which allows for Bots, Stores and Payments. Further integration with Instagram could potentially use these features to tie together content+business. Threads is an enhancement over Instagram to add textual content.

The place looks to be this bridge. The man was featured in several newspapers, like in this article.

Not trying to defend Russia, but the concept of a Pyrrhic Victory has existed for quite some time.

The digital euro looks so promising, even if it's a small thing. Ditching Visa and Mastercard would help reduce intermediates in the payment chain, even if the replacement is the bank itself.

There's a tiny game called Loop Hero where your hero goes on a literal loop around the world, facing enemies as they go and while you craft a world of out existence. Pretty fun.

Doesn't the poster look underage as well?

The runtime is for launching games, not Steam itself. You can check the runtime selection in Compatibility tab of Steam and of each game. If your Steam Flatpak install doesn't work, the issue is likely somewhere else.

I'd suggest trying to launch the flatpak from the terminal and seeing if there's any strange logging.

Apple won, Epic lost.

That's the origin of the hate: addiction to meds.

Not knowing much of Dune, this led to me reading quite a lot of resources online.

Sure, but the people that made that software had to pay electricity bills and capital purchases of computers. The fact that they decided to release that as free (freedom and price) software is a different topic, itself laudable but most times not even altruistic.

And on the "arbitrarily taken away" topic, you seem to be against "services" and not necessarily software (the means to the end).

Erdogan is seemingly positioning themselves more closely to Ukraine, not necessarily because of being pro Ukraine but for being anti Russian. Effectively ceding control of the Black Sea coast to Russia is a big no-no.

Second Fedora, because it's just so good. Bazzite is the goal if gaming is your primary concern.

Honestly, I'm very happy that your post has the highest score.

All other people are spewing vitriol over either parent and not even trying to be understanding. Life is about making and learning from mistakes, and mistakes can be oh-so-horrible at times. Character value is measured by how well you navigate the stormy waves, and there's almost never a single correct choice.

American or otherwise? My late friend was 23 when he passed away, but I'm happy I got to share so many years with him. Hope the same for you and your baby!

I first thought it was a paradise parasite of some kind, but I ended up understanding it's a perfectible sensible conversation between a conscious pre-born and their mother, where the former jokes about using their mother as a suit that repurposes every drop of moisture into their body.

I meant, being devil's advocate, you're paying for a CPU, GPU and RAM in a single purchase. These things would be a MiniPC without the motherboard and connectors.
