This actually has six right angles if you include exterior ones.

When I subscribe to someone's youtube channel through Newpipe, does their subscriber count on youtube go up? Or is subscribing just telling Newpipe to bookmark that content for me, but doesn't tell youtube anything?

The reason I ask is because the subscriber count on youtube could be an underestimate that way.

"Unlock the door" is a really strange way to say "lock the door." What a dolt.

Helping others to do their best, especially when it's something they are truly passionate about.

I mean, if we wanted our best and brightest (and most compassionate) to teach, we would pay them the best salary they could get with their degrees.

Note to good teachers out there (I'm a teacher too): I'm not saying there aren't any! I'm just saying that those doing the hiring can't afford to be terribly picky.

Please don't take this as one of the rude responses you refer to above - that is not my intent.

Why do you want to use Mint in the first place? The only thing that distinguishes Mint from any other Debian derivative, is that they have made all these software choices for you, and you don't have to do anything to get your system ready for you to be productive. It's aimed at folks who don't want to think at all about any of the concerns you have about customizing.

If you don't like the choices Mint has made, there is literally no reason to choose it. Start with a minimal version of Debian, and add whatever you want. The end result will be the same as starting with Mint and swapping things out. The only difference will be the address of your repositories.

It has another danger too, when it glints in the sunlight and blinds other drivers.

Chrome was always a bad idea.

When kids don't trust their parents, there's usually a good reason.

The problem with Bill Maher has nothing to do with his age. He sucks, it's true, but lots of guys exactly the same age as him do not suck.

Bicycles predate automobiles by several decades and asphault was invented for bicycle use. Also pneumatic tires. Pedestrians had the right-of-way everywhere in every road until the oligarchs invented "jaywalking."

Automobiles were forced on the public, their popularity was manufactured. People don't even notice how unhappy and stressed out they are when they drive the brainwahing is that effective.

The complaint is not about the terms "systemd" and "segmentation fault." Those are the titles of the affected artworks. Presumably the artworks themselves contain some trademarked property.

Also, this is utterly unrelated to patents.

There's no pettiness here. The changes he made are very good, positive help for our state, whereas veto of the entire budget would have been a disaster.

My instance has downvoting enabled, but I've learned that some other instances do not. Do the vote totals look different to users on different instances? It seems like some users on instances that don't allow downvoting are unaware that it's not the same lemmy-wide. It would be pretty confusing for them to see their vote go down.
