Replaced on old windows install on living room media pc with popOS. Newer hardware, just didn’t make sense to run such a vulnerable and outdated os any more and I wasn’t about to pay for a new windows version for it. A few choice apps linked in the dock, and the main streaming websites bookmarked on homepage in the browser, and we are golden. No issues making the switch really, apart from occasional Bluetooth hiccups with the combo wireless keyboard/trackpad that drives everything. To be fair, Bluetooth occasionally has a meltdown on windows or Mac as well, so I don’t think this detracts from a successful conversion. The end result is actually much more stable and approachable for the whole fam, so quite happy with results.

lol oh yeah, Biden’s red line is like 50 miles back in the rear view by now. Easy to forget when he keeps rushing them billions and billions of dollars, while US infrastructure falls apart at home due to climate disaster. Neat!

Historically a ceasefire means to stop killing, and it is considered broken if hostilities resume.

Baking in the resumption of hostilities is essentially negotiating for peace in bad faith. This has been Netenyahu’s strategy from the start, because he knows an end to the war means an end to his reign of power.

Yep, this is good for Lemmy

To call Zelenskyy “President Putin” at that critical moment was offensive and totally unacceptable.

Calling Kamala “Vice President Trump” is kind of hilarious though.

Both of these together paint a troubling picture. Why is Biden confusing people who are supposed to be his closest allies with those who are considered to be his bitter rivals? This was supposed to be his big press conference where he proves he’s still mentally fit to be president, and he totally blew it. Somebody get him outta there, Biden isn’t fit to be president and the sooner we can admit that and move on the better it will be for this country. The gaslighting in full denial of this is incredibly dangerous, and likely driven by whoever it is that’s actually in charge and wants to stay that way (all signs point to Jill Biden, who last I checked was not elected president.)

Apparently Biden has not had a full cabinet meeting since last year. These are the people who can invoke 25th amendment on him, and it’s looking extremely suspicious all of a sudden that he’s been avoiding them, and for such an insanely long period of time too!

For those of us who have had to support an elder family member through times of mental decline, the condition is extremely apparent now, and the administration can no longer hide it. Elders often resist or get angry when confronted about necessary changes, but it’s for their own good. In this case, it’s also so we can ward off a fascist takeover of the US. Come on dem leadership, it’s time to actually be the adults in the room and handle this.

Hey man, under Biden we defeated Medicare. Mission Accomplished.

I’m a pop_os enjoyer, the window manager is great especially on a small laptop screen. Also have it running in the living room on a media pc (streaming, light gaming, music etc) and it’s been fantastic for that application as well. Excited for the upcoming switch to cosmicDE, think that will be chef kiss for me.

Been working great for me for years! You do need to take care when setting up for a stable and consistent experience, but their docs are pretty thorough and regularly updated.

Israel is ASSHOLE!

Seems they instructed the corpo media talking heads to paint FISA as something good that republicans are obstructing. Thus manufacturing consent for our constitutional right to privacy to be violated even more egregiously.

Classic Democrat maneuvre. Watch, they’ll also remove the filibuster right before getting voted out of office.

Corpo propaganda resulting in a condition called “Brain Rotting”

Pretty sure they meant to say Warcraft 3 was the last good blizz game.

The establishment politicians in DC have been absolutely chomping at the bit for war with Iran ever since Trump reneged on the nuclear deal. This is really dumb because unlike Iraq/Afghanistan, Iran is a big country with a serious military backing it. We would need material allied support in such a conflict, and Biden’s “ironclad” stance on Israel has burned bridges rapidly across the globe. If this is the basis for a new war, I suspect it will cause a massive political rift.

Back down you old fools. If it goes hot, GenZ will not be signing up to save your asses with boots on the ground.

One of those UNRWA workers Israel claimed was Hamas is literally a retired US Marine general. Israel’s claims are absurd, they are committing a never ending stream of war crimes and atrocities, and it’s absolutely required we go beyond flowery language and strongly worded letters to put an end to their reprehensible actions.

This is just a little something to keep in mind the next time some Israeli tries to argue that “it’s not an occupation.”

Ok, so Hamas resistance set their sights on Israeli “settlers”. And so it goes, death ensues.

Republicans are always going to lie, that’s just their nature. The news media has completely failed us for their inability to call out these lies, due to their desire for access to those in power.

Kushner and his rich friends want to pillage Gaza for its oil, after an ethnic cleansing forcing out all the native Palestinians into the desert. Most normal Israelis would never see a dime from this operation, it’s just a land and money grab by the elites. Truly disgusting, and he’s rubbing it in our faces in broad daylight, platformed by the university to which his daddy bought him admittance. Gross.
