Dont they make Tea out of stinging nettles or something?

I’ve tried hibiscus tea which is nice even without the sugar.

Despite the name, it is rare for the forces to completely balance, and real-world recoilless rifles do recoil noticeably (with varying degrees of severity).

A Vespa cannot take that kind of forces and survive.

That vespa and that cannon do not look survivable if para-dropped. Also an artillery cannon with no-recoil ? How would that even work on a Two-wheeler like a scooter ? Im pretty sure you would have to dismount and re-assemble the cannon on solid ground.

Evangelists exist in all communities. I was simply stating that people whose agenda to convert you to Linux may not always have other peoples best interests at heart. Clearly I don’t have that agenda. I would prefer people made their own decisions and choices based on their own needs. Not forced into an untenable situation.

I like how upvote/downvote does not matter on Lemmy.

Its about free speech as in beer. And not censorship. We can have our opinions without fear of being the unpopular opinion.

But Minecrafting Reagan would not be possible so it has to be Ponging him. Or Q*berting him ?

Even after using CPAN ? I found Perl to be much more “manageable” than Python.

Python with Venv and Pip at least works as expected. Which makes it easier.

I found installing Go-sdk a total PiTA. It is okay as a developer environment. But bash + gnu utils + core utils seem much more sane to me.

Of course I mostly work with Linux systems and hardly ever have to deal with Scripting for Windoze.

Farting does expel some amount of body heat.

Im sure long-distance runners might relieve themselves without stopping, as it cools them down while also a release and embarrassment which might spur their brain into flight response.

I doubt if the heat loss is significant but when actively working out or doing intense work the mind might get tricked into thinking that it benefitted.

Anecdotally when running a fever it does feel better emptying out. So not sure if physiological or psychological effect.

Several factors.

1. Genetic trait that attracts mosquitoes and biting insects.

2. Dietary sugars including no-sugar supplements.

3. BO and FO as well as high metabolism that produces significantly higher body temps and CO2 volume in breath.

BO = Body odour. FO = Foot odour.

I’ve been on Steam+Proton for more than 3 years now. So many many games are now supported. It is usually the DRM kernel anti-cheats that are Windoxez only tend to be the broken ones. I dont buy or care about games that run anti-cheat in Windoze kernel.

No idea as I have Wayland disabled from install. Wayland packages based on distros are probably compatible with X11/Xorg packages installed side-by-side. Choose whichever suits your needs. If you like Wayland or X it will be your choice.

No one in the Linux community wants to force users onto Linux. If they do that, then they are morons and should not be listened to.

Windows is blatantly forced on users through monopolistic practices and underhanded dealings going back decades.

I know what I actively will choose. Also it is my choice. It doesnt have to be your choice or even the right choice. Choose what you want and what you need. No one in the Linux community can or will force you to switch to Linux.

Instead of VNC can I recommend running xRDP ?

VNC over SSH is secure, but VNC over network is inherently insecure and exposes plaintext passwords.

For some of us, X11/Xorg is better , way way better than using Wayland.

Linux means we should have a choice without sacrificing our freedom. So if I want to use X11/Xorg or Wayland, I SHOULD MAKE THAT DECISION.

Looking at the garbage trash fire that is systemd.

Only way I can get SysVInit back is if I use Slackware, Devuan , so a complete switch of distro and tools. No choice no freedom.

I can tell you for a fact, in 1999, we were running Windows3.11 and MSDOS 5.x on a brand-new Pentium II ? or something like that, because the DSP-board and daughter-card system didn’t like Win2k. We were all on the network. Everyone ran Win2k Pro while loading the test codes via network / SMB/CIFs share to that machine.

Same could be done using Linux on all those systems except for the test rig.

NO YOU DO NOT have to use Windows on your desktop just for your toolchain. Put that shit on a separate test-rig and isolate it.

Best Practices and Good Standard procedures makes it possible to use Linux on the Desktop.

It is a matter of ability and talent to do things properly using the best tools at any given time.

Kickbacks from MicroShaft to all C-suite and “special” org-wide discounts if they disband and ban Linux desktop projects.

Even though Linux corporate desktop has the least cost, least number of tickets, least security breaches, fastest transparent updates, easiest automation/customization/tracking, everything is cheaper secure no-brainer no-headaches.

Top-level execs still get to play with their Mac-books and Windoze systems. Linux for the rest of us. But no, all banned for Windox on all systems… security/BSODs/threats incoming 3…2…1… nobody in C-suite cares… they got their paychecks!!!

Karela == Bitter Melon or Bitter Gourd

Kerala == " Gods own Country " Southern state in India

:-D Hope that clears up the spelling :-D

WSL2 exists for the very reason, if you hate using Windblows, you can install Linux OS on top and do everything from the Linux VM. Why even bother struggling with Windozes interface and software ?

Corpo sabotage of opensource. So many community projects are under the thumb of corpo insiders. It was a “cash-grab” a way to shoehorn and takeover an essential but mostly unchanged and stable Init system. And they shimmed that into everything they could ram it into with no options or alternatives.
