New gender gap

I've tried so many different social media platforms and every single one has been an echo chamber for their little slice of hell.

Lemmy just happens to be FOSS tech and liberal stuff. They're all echo chambers for sure.

How to get a private car

When you go just ask if there's cars or models without the car itself having a SIM card but that still has carplay. People love to drum this stuff up but they still make dumb cars. There's usually like 3 variations maybe 4 of each model. Go lower on the model to get less features but still the right amount of them.

New gender gap

If I am reading this correctly, men drifting towards conservative and women drifting towards liberal?

That would reflect the culture found in apps - I feel like men with andrew tate and things like truth social/rumble/kick and women drift more towards stuff like reddit/tiktok/instagram where you can usually see a lot more liberal idealogy.

If you have a Chromebook and that's what you need sounds like the ticket! Glad you enjoy it.

When I was in highschool I could only afford a Chromebook and I chrooted mine, which meant putting Linux on it. I believe that's changed in years past though.

No context

I don't think I'm going to smell anyone's asshole in a nearby future and I pray you don't either, friend.

Wipe until clean, spray your anus with water, just get the job done and shower often.

Linux tablet?

I had reasoning for the steam deck when I wrote that but I'm struggling to recall why. There was some niche with Linux for it since it has good support for Linux applications but I can't remember how I thought it would fit

Anyhow nook and especially kobo are solid.

Linux tablet?

Can I be ridiculous here and say that a nook e-reader or kobo e-reader, and a steamdeck would suffice?

Maybe just a kobo?

I know it's not Linux and that's what you asked for, but at the end of 2022 when I looked into this I had a hard time finding Linux tablet with a good UX.

And I think these parts are fair to say but they lose me within the first few minutes by jumping to disassociated bold points like the cloud to windows being proprietary.

We need well reasoned arguments that are cohesive and the moment you lose that, you basically damage your own cause.

Again though it's a discussion. I'm just saying that it's disappointing and quickly frustrating that this is how things get framed: with facts and arguments that are leading. Don't show your hand. Let people arrive at these things as a logical conclusion based on a pile of evidence.
