What you on about, brother? Isn't this a place on the internet, here thanks to god's favourite country ? Clearly everyone can relate to the quintessential USA-ian experience!

And what's that about Eurocentrism, look at a map, Europe is dead center! Asia is to the east and Americas to the west... Relative to Europe!

Oh and here's a massive /S, just in case...

Silver lining is that's a great opportunity for development. Even more so, we've seen how things play out when such platforms are left unchecked, so we can try to avoid the downfalls of big tech.

As opposed to Linux, which poses a penguin risk.

Puns aside, I completely agree with you, but that one might be either the best or the worst thing to happen to OSS. Best case scenario the govt. ensures critical technology is funded and maintained, is invested in and essentially brings a sustainable model for maintainers. Worst case, open source is regulated out of existence as we know it. There was a piece of EU legislation that thankfully didn't pass, which would've resulted in just that. Here's a reference, sorry I don't have the time right now for a better one.

Jeez contributors, don't you sleep at all?

Syria, one of the largest contributors, is not exactly stable yet. Israel is making sure of that with their continued warmongering

They do use the same pass though, that's why it's so strange to me. Thanks for the help, this at least gives me a clue.

I'll dig around and update the post for reference.

Right. Wouldn't it make sense to unlock it along with my root drive when I log in though? There should be a way to do that

You don't win by them just losing some money. Redistribution is the name of the game. Even if Tesla hits 0/share, you aren't getting any more wealth just by virtue of that happening.

...Aside from basking in the downfall of a nazi of course, but those are priceless things.

 

I installed an additional SSD on my pc. Everything works ok, except I need to unlock it with my root password on every session so that it mounts.

I've tried formatting it to change the 'owner', tried adding it to the user group, and I can't find any other solutions. Any ideas?

This happens irrelevant of DE (happens on KDE and hyprland). I'm running tumbleweed, though this looks like a config problem rather than a distro problem.

Save the puppies act! If we don't know what exactly you say while pounding your wife, how could we possibly hope to save your dear pup, which I promise you did not consent to a threesome?!

And eeevery body loves puppies, no one will object to that. In case you do, you'd be suspected in zoophilia by the way, so don't do it!

The sarcasm here would be lost on so many people...

Reading this made me even happier I don't have to live there

That's how subscription services get you. Why buy DVDs when you can stream all day long on Netflix? Suddenly, DVDs are no longer for sale and streaming services take down content for one reason or another. Then you have no other legal alternative but to pay whatever they ask, be shown whatever they want and continue to own none of it.
