Pretty sure its under a more info dropdown

None. They’re just massive pieces of shit.

I could be mistaken, but since this is a state level issue wouldn’t it rather go to the state supreme court?

Parents like this hope the child moves out when they graduate high school and get rich so their kid can care for them when they’re old.

That is the joke. Yes.

Previous “first acts” of world wars quickly led to a cascade of treaties being acted upon and declarations of war being announced. I think your opinion is unfounded in historical context. Not to say that we shouldn’t be alarmed or that we’re hurtling towards a global armed conflict if drastic change doesn’t occur, but I think its alarmist to claim its already started.

I have come to terms with knowing that I will never be so invested in software that I start building my own programs. And that’s okay. It’s been a blast exploring what amazing software other open source advocates have built. Just in this last year I built a PC, switched from windows to Linux on my laptop, started using libreoffice, prioritized F-Droid apps, learned terminal commands, built a software stack using Docker for a media library, bought a domain and networked a tunnel to access Jellyfin remotely, setup cloud sync with Immich to locally backup my photos…and I’m sure there’s much more I’m missing. If l’m ever looking for a new hobby, programming may eventually be something I look into, but for now I’ll just continue to support developers that make the FOSS I have used so far.

This is pretty much my exact same situation. I have no education in programming or software, but open-source became really interesting to me after learning what the fediverse is.

Ah, I hadn’t heard of that before. But good reference!

How so?

I find the scp command to be extraordinarily powerful for never having been taught anything about it in school.

In addition to there being a huge mountain range in the way. The Alps block/slow down a lot of the cold air currents that do make their way down from the polar regions. That’s why cities like Turin and Milan still have cold climates in the north. Cold air still makes it’s way over the Alps but is slowed and is reheated as it travels south so cities like Genoa/Florence/Rome are much milder in the winter.
