2026 midterms, not a presidential election

Search engines such as DuckDuckGo and Google have an “exclude” feature, prepend a word with “-”

Searching “rick” returns mostly Rick and Morty, while “rick -morty” excludes “morty”, thus returning mostly Rick Astley

Let the right be wrong

Ironic that evangelicals used this.

Let the white doves sing

Doves don’t even sing

Didnt want to name specifics because they might not exist for certain browsers, but you can search “archive” and there will be many

You should remember to send all YT videos that you watch to archive.org

There are browser extensions to do this conveniently

Why is this being downvoted?? This is a valid question.

We know that it surges at Republican conventions.

The post implies but does not actually show us that this is disproportionate to other congregations.

When is the year of the linux phone

what is this idea of “thin phone”??? A thick phone could fit more battery and specs and better camera

people around the world are fascinated by the sheer lack of phone here

My thoughts exactly

Forums are only sort of social media

There is less focus on users and more on topics, and they have more practical uses than social media

But still, Lemmy is social media, I guess.

Then people move to Linux

If implemented this should only apply to paid OS’s or ones where a licence comes with the hardware

No license is needed for Linux

forcing people to support a project for Y amount of years would really harm indie developers releasing Linux distros and the like

Solution: implement as consumer protection that only applies to paid OS’s (and also ones that require a license, even if it’s “free” due to coming with the hardware)

Better laws would be:

• to mandate open source relaease at EOS
• automatically public domain at EOS
• require paid operating systems to supporr hardware from 15 years ago (as a consumer protection law, so that it only applies to paid OS’s (and also ones that require a license, even if it’s “free” due to coming with the hardware), so that foss projects arent hurt)

Mandatory open source public domain release at EOS.

At Win10 EOS, people would make Windows distros, and ReactOS would no longer have to be a clean room implementation.

Also this would be a success for Stop Killing Games.

here i am in the tropics

same temperature and length of day year round

only thing that changes is rainfall
