I hate repossession tow truck drivers

I hate repossession tow truck drivers

Everyone says, "They're just doing their job.". They should get a new job instead of repossessing people's cars.

I can't imagine how it feels to have your car repossessed.

The woman who defied Italian tradition by refusing to marry her rapist

Franca Viola says 'No'

"In 1966, Franca Viola became the first Italian woman to take to court a cultural convention that would have her marry her rapist. With the eyes of a nation upon Viola, her statement to her rapist from the stand became a rallying cry for other women to follow suit."

"Traditionally, such an appalling crime would be excused if the couple later wed in a "reparative marriage" — the man forgiven for his violence and the woman’s “honor” restored. This was not just an informal tradition, but an explicit exception in the Italian criminal code."

Windows Narrator is better than Orca screen reader

The voice for the Orca screen reader is very annoying.

Windows Narrator has a better sounding voice.

CLARIFICATION: There are impressive aspects of Chinese Linux distros

Navigating Global Regulations and Open Source: US OFAC Sanctions

China is working towards becoming fully self-sufficient because of the threat of sanctions.

China has to make it's own hardware. These Linux distributions need to be able to run on a large variety of hardware. For example, openEuler needs to run on x86_64, aarch64, ARM32, LoongArch64, and RISC-V.

Additionally, China has to be able to maintain these distributions without access to the Linux community.

This is the amount of bread and confectionery we have to toss away regularly because management says so.

Friendly reminder for my fellow Linux users (you're killing your SSD)

Can't believe I escaped Windows reinstall hell just to watch Linux users proudly nuke their NVMe drives every other weekend 'for a clean slate' and better ricing.

The copium from some of yall is next level. You're killing your drives for literally the dumbest reasons. Put on the makeup.

I use Arch btw.

They posted anti-communism in subreddit about "finding the elephant in the room"

I was trying to find the elephant in the room and couldn't find it.

Then I decided to search the comments and realized that the elephant is just anti-communist propaganda.

The "kamala is brat" situation was depressing (USA 2024 election)

This gets more absurd when you remember this person supports genocide.

No amount of recycling on an individuals part will undo the waste made by a single walmart.

Door dash and spark make it worse bc whatever doesn't get picked that day get tossed in the morning.

Nothing less then town wide, city wide, county wide efforts will make a difference. Its really sad. I want to be proven wrong.

Experience with Deepin, openKylin, and openEuler (China Linux)

Deepin: Extremely bloated. People claim it's beautiful, but I don't think it looks good. I had a bunch of weird bugs. There was incomplete English translation.

openKylin: bloated, unresponsive, and has incomplete English translation.

openEuler (server): felt like Fedora server, but slower to install. I used the version without a desktop environment. The "Network Install ISO" didn't work and I had to use the "Offline Standard ISO".

openEuler (server + UKUI): I followed the instructions to install the UKUI desktop environment. I was excited at first, but then I immediately ran into issues. The weather app was in Chinese. It wouldn't accept my password when I tried uninstalling the weather app. The password wouldn't work for anything I did inside the GUI interface. My password only worked for logging in and the terminal.

openEuler (DevStation): It was in Chinese even though I selected the English option during installation. It uses a heavily modified version of GNOME.

Microsoft Windows 11 has better accessibility features than all of these. These distributions should have focused more on accessibility. You need to have good accessibility if you are planning to replace Microsoft Windows.
