Nothing about this outcome was a surprise

People mention eating it whole… I at least shave the hair off it first.

It sounds like you’re describing every libertarian I’ve ever met

WSL is pretty good these days. Dual boot with Windows is still a pretty risky move with how easily Windows will overwrite your boot loader. I usually recommend you pick one os or the other rather than dual boot, so I’m in favor of WSL or virtualbox. Personally, I have never cared for needing to reboot just to switch operating systems. I tend to stick with one and the second one does nothing but take up disk partition space.

WSL lets you run both simultaneously without rebooting. Virtualbox lets you do the same with extra setup. Virtualbox makes it easier to do GUI setups than WSL does, and the network configuration is a little more obvious.

The best option is to get a second machine so you can run both. If that’s not an option, virtualbox is the better choice for learning. If you just want a Linux environment on your existing setup (similar to using a Mac) then WSL is usually good enough

If downvoting for disagreement isn’t okay, then why is it okay to upvote for agreement? (And why did you downvote me, if you think that’s a bad thing?)

Voting is so users can express their opinion of what does or doesn’t belong in the feed. People who can’t handle mild criticism or disagreement shouldn’t be posting things in public spaces

Personally, I agree with the vegan philosophy of reducing factory farming of meat. What I think is bad for society is villainizing anyone who doesn’t 100% agree with the most extreme viewpoints. Which is explicitly the sort of posts I downvote

And also why I’m no longer allowed to downvote toxic vegan posts in Lemmy.ca

Disagreement isn’t an invalid case for voting, despite what Reddit had people believing before.

The voting system is to let people know how many people thought this content was good or not good for the feed. If you shouldn’t downvote for disagreement, then you shouldn’t upvote for agreement either

But nobody has any problem with that

Voting on content in the feed is helping to curate it for others. If a community gets more down votes than up votes, maybe the community is the one at odds with people

Voting on content that is in the Lemmy feed is engaging in good faith. That’s what the voting system is for.

What is not good faith is suppressing anyone who doesn’t 100% agree with what your community is for

Taylor Swift endorsed Harris, and she signed it “childless cat lady.” (There’s a little history of the term being used recently by Trump or Vance)

And Musk is responding in the dumbest way, when nobody even asked him

Yeah in that frame he really should be talking to Odo anyway.

Because the whole situation really was Odo’s dumbassery by accident

It really bothers me that Odo didn’t choose to be the same plastic blue barrel that nearly killed Worf

Tabasco?

I prefer hot sauce on old pizza, not vinegar

That was the reason, but it was a full field commission, as a captain is allowed to do.

Paris did. Then he got demoted and then promoted again.

And I want to say Tuvok got a promotion also

Ask a project manager

They sometimes do

I know those words, but that doesn’t make any sense

You’re arguing opinions and trying to convince someone as if they are facts. There’s plenty to criticize about how AI is used, but it is a valuable tool for those that use it.

The amount of value it provides is very subjective, and even if you don’t find it useful, many others do. You might as well be trying to argue that you don’t like photography because it doesn’t provide the same experience of drawings and paintings. You wouldn’t be wrong to feel that way, but you would be wrong to tell someone else that they need to feel the way you do.

Pretty sure Darkwing Duck was part of the Disney Afternoon, and showed after school on weekdays

I usually assumed the “larger than life” giant hills and huge woods were part of the way Calvin looked at the world, rather than the way his parents saw it. After all, he saw his dad as working in a high-rise office, which would be out of place this close to a home like this

Just the same, it was clearly a great place for an imaginative outdoorsy kid to live.

Doctors said that they think Trump’s mental health is in decline. It does not say he’s too old, just that he is unfit based on his behaviors.

There’s no double standard here, because the standard isn’t about age, it’s about mental health.
