No it isn’t? I’ve tried again and just like before, it loads a page.

Obviously they have, it’s just very few and far between.

It’s a bit silly to bring up royal families and pretend their lifestyles are similar to that of the common man.

Look at this map and tell me the issue is European culture.

This is a problem with Pakistani culture in Britain when it comes to marrying family members.

There’s a reason why the hotspot of birth defects for all of Europe is in Bradford, an area of high Pakistani immigration where over 80% of married adult Pakistanis are married to cousins. That is an insane stat.

Brits have been doing this for literal hundreds to thousands of years.

No, some German-descended royals did it for a few hundred. And they are absolutely not representative of the average Briton. Most normal people aren’t continually marrying from the same royal families of other allied nations, like royals used to.

Do you think maps like this are mere coincidence?

An unfortunate aspect of Pakistani culture that has carried over to the UK.

Families would marry within the family to keep their wealth within the family.

Unfortunately after successive generations, this can cause serious problems.

Brits actually have among the healthiest teeth in the world. A while ago they were joint first with Germany, but now they’re only joint 7th with Sweden, after the likes of Denmark, Finland, and others upped their game.

The cousin fucking is very much a Pakistani immigrant problem, so not really related to the unfounded American meme about British dental care.

It’s a big thing in the Pakistani and British-Pakistani communities. The biggest spot in all of Europe for incest is in Bradford, after all.

I highly doubt those demographics vote Reform. Reform voters hate these people.

Ah, the “you also participate in society” line.

I guess nobody should ever make any moral stand, ever, because living in the 21st century means you’ve indirectly supported evil by default.

Nobody mentioned child labour.

Thinking gay and trans people should have human rights does not mean you must be fine with child labour.

That’s probably because you’re a piece of shit.

Lemmy copying Reddit with the downvotes system is something that really frustrates me.

The downvote button is one of the most toxic things about Reddit. Nobody uses it the way it is supposedly intended to be used.

Lemmy saw that and thought great, let’s copy.

I don’t know whether they did it because they wanted to make a straight up Reddit clone, or whether they mistakenly thought Lemmy users would be above that kind of behaviour (lol), but either way it was a mistake IMO. It just encourages division.

Forced out of Mozilla more like

Are you serious? Of course people should care if people are using their power and influence to strip certain people of their rights.

Then why are you continuing? I’m not saying that you can’t disagree, you’re free to disagree.

I’m just saying it’s extremely low end, and it’s true.

It really isn’t. It’s extremely low end.

I’d say your definition is an odd one, then.

OP’s hardware is extremely low end.

Needlessly divisive identity politics that gets spread around a lot in the form of tweets/articles/memes because it’s controversial.

It feels like it never quite decided on what it wanted to be.

Wow, I feel the absolute opposite. Of all the UXes I have ever used, Gnome feels the most like they have a vision they’re committed to.

Not everyone likes it, and I get it’s very different to the WinUX that most others have settled on, but they absolutely have a vision, and they execute on that vision.

Extensions break with every update.

Sort of.

When a new Gnome version comes out, Gnome’s default behaviour is to mark extensions as unsupported. But in reality unless you’re upgrading to the first Beta releases, you’re unlikely to run into that, as extension developers will have marked their extensions as compatible long before the new Gnome version has hit stable and distros start pushing it.

You can disable the check if you like, but hypothetically that could lead to issues (say, if Gnome radically changes the calendar applet, and then you force enable an extension that tweaks the old applet). Gnome, probably wisely, goes with the more stable option.

If you just use the stable branch, you’re unlikely to ever get broken extensions.

Good. Honestly it’s staggering they’ve supported it for this long. It’s hard to envisage such an old system browsing the web using Firefox, the modern web is so bloated that any 32-bit system will seriously struggle.

It’s much better to have that developer/testing effort spent elsewhere. Mozilla doesn’t exactly have the infinite resources that Google has.

I had issues with his trying out Linux series, but that is not one of them, and I’m tired of seeing him be shat on because of it.

Firstly, he was trying to install Steam via instructions he found on PopOS’s website. Even if he did do something stupid (and I would argue he didn’t really), it is not the fault of the end user that doing that can completely fuck your install. It should not be possible to do that, yet it was due to a PopOS packaging error.

Yes, he did receive a generic warning about how by proceeding to attempt this installation, he could cause damage. Hidden in a wall of text of hundreds of package names.

But do you know what else has scary messages like that? Android. Windows. MacOS. A whole host of smart devices. Any new user could easily think that message was normal and would appear any time you try to install something via the terminal.

End users are used to seeing scary messages like that, and they’ve become numb to them. Deflecting criticism of that PopOS bug by saying “well there was a warning, so actually it’s the end users that are idiots and PopOS/Linux is actually perfect” doesn’t help anybody.

I have no idea why you’re so proudly ignorant.

Just watch the video or move along and accept that you aren’t informed.
