In case it helps: I just got an update for “Microsoft UEFI CA” on my computer running Fedora KDE 42, from “Firmware Updates (lvfs)”. Check your software centre.

That was 5 years ago. Make him take the test again

It’s definitely worth keeping an eye on. Keep in mind that the name of the fork currently under active development, TrilliumNext Notes, will soon change to just Trillium Notes, like the original software it was forked from, according to the release notes of the latest version (0.94.1).

Absolutely! Take care of your earth! But you don’t need to fine people for a loitering crime they haven’t committed. Not all bottles have Pfand in Germany: soft drinks? Yes, juice? No, beer? Yes, wine? No. It’s a hypocritical bullshit system.

No, it’s not: it’s a fine you pay because it’s assumed you’ll litter some bottles: not all bottles have Pfand, which is nonsense: soda yes, juice not.

And the number of bottles lying around? Germans come back from Spain praising how clean the streets are and Spain has no Pfand system. That’s just not true.

Nah. Fuck the Pfand system. I don’t like being fined for a crime I haven’t committed (not recycling the bottle) with the excuse of “you’ll get your fine back when you return the bottle”

Nah, in Germany you’re not paid for cleaning anything. You aren’t getting any money: you are fined 25 cents (for some glass bottles it’s 15, for some 8) when you buy the drink in case you don’t recycle. You might get that money back if you bring the bottle back to the supermarket, they accept it, and the return machine is working at the time. It’s a scam.

You don’t get anything: you pay 25 cents (for some glass bottles it’s 15, for some 8) when you buy the drink and you might get your own money back if you bring it to the supermarket, they accept it, and the machine is working at the time. It’s a scam.

Good to know, thanks. I’m fairly new to Linux and reading that this or that distro is based in Ubuntu always makes me wonder how much they share (and why they don’t base those distros on Debian, being the mother of Ubuntu)

Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu. Wouldn’t it be better to go for one of the distributions everything else is based on? Debian or Fedora?

Trump was never prosecuted, was allowed to run again and is president again after his coup. Nothing was done. It’s going to get much worse because NOTHING WAS DONE.

Will it happen, though? Trump staged a coup 4 years ago and no one did a thing about it. DOGE has been fucking around for months now and no one has done a thing. No one in the USA is going to do a thing about anything, post a meme on Lemmy maybe? They’re paralysed and unable to take action. They’ll never react.

There’s also IHateMoney as a self hosted service and MoneyBuster as an Android app to interact with IHateMoney.

Such a wasteful, broken system

That’s 90% of online shopping there. It’s hard to hear, but we as costumers are part of the problem. Stop buying so much shit online. Go to a brick and mortar shop. Touch it, feel it, try those pants.

Online shopping is a fucking waste and every day we have dozens of shipping companies coming to the city with their vans to drive through each street bringing small packages to every apartment. Polluting, blocking streets, increasing traffic. Just because we are too lazy to go to a shop and buy it in person.

We probably don’t even need it. And yes, I know there’s not a shop next to me that sells X or Y. Do you know why? Because we’ve been killing small brick and mortar shops for 20 years with our online shopping. We created this problem and we have to fix it. Fuck the “broken, wasteful system” and support your local shop.

keep it that way until the Turd Reich is vote out of office.

No, please. Keep it forever. The USA was never and never will be a reliable ally. Good riddance. Forever.

I love Gauguin and came here to comment this. Great addition!

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

Oh, I know nothing about tariffs taxing… so I guess you’re right. I was just thinking arithmetics (25%=1/4) but it seems I overstepped here 😅

A fifth would be 20%, if you want to block 25% then you block one fourth of the screen.

Did you ask them what does Linux mean?
