“less” right wing is still right wing
i’ve been made aware of how miserable living in a red state is. but being not as rabidly misogynistic and racist as republicans doesn’t make the dems “not right wing”. implementing better domestic policies doesn’t either. at the end of the day, both parties represent the interests of corporations, will implement austerity measures that widen your already massive wealth gap, and will make sure the us-american empire keeps the rest of the planet in a stranglehold
edit: as for you saying i’m ignoring reality, again, i’m aware republicans are worse for you, but i need you usians to truly grasp the reality that, unlike most other democracies, your two major parties are right-wing and ultimately uphold the same project. any right-wing politician for europe or latin america would feel at home in the democratic party
democrats are enthusiastic supporters of US imperialism and neoliberalism. they’re right wing. end of story
the only difference between republicans and democrats is that they sell US imperialism to different portions of the population. republicans are more honest about their intentions, but if there were only republicans, that would risk massive revolts from the more progressive-leaning portion of the population. this is why the democratic party exists: it allows the us govt to sell the same underlying project with a different face that’s more appealing to the average progressive voter
edit: to really drive my point home ask yourself: what is the official stance of the democratic party regarding free and public healthcare, free and public education (including higher education), progressive taxation, public transportation, labor legislation (especially regarding maternity leave), etc? not what some more left-leaning factions of the party say, i mean the actual official party stance. because these are absolutely uncontroversial among the left-leaning parties worldwide
it’s just an os, you’re not better just bc you memorized a bunch of terminal commands and willingly subjected yourself to a poorer user experience
if you don’t give a fuck about user freedom and just want to use a unix os, then fuck off to any bsd out there and stfu
yes and that sucked. i’m glad we’re not like that anymore
what is it with linux nerds not understanding that you can have configurability without it being mandatory? i’m not saying the terminal shouldn’t exist, just that i shouldn’t have to use it
every time you need to open a terminal for some basic system operation is a defeat for the system
(i get that this is not a very common operation, but still)
it’s not just that this is not for me. i genuinely don’t see the point of a terminal-only editor (even vim has a gui version) without any extensibility. the reason vim and emacs are still being used despite being old and full of cruft is that their extensibility makes them very adaptable. treesitter et al seem enough now, but what about ten years from now?
it’s also weird their motivation for being terminal-only is better performance, as if guis are this super resource intensive thing and not something that’s been mainstream for at least 30 years
there’s no such thing as politically neutral
obligatory reminder that us-american domestic politics are so skewed to the right that what appears “moderate” in the usa is right to far-right anywhere else
your “liberals” are right-wing
your “conservatives” are right-wing
both are liberals
for the terminal
no thank you
there is currently no plugin system available
lmao
i didn’t read the entire post and likely won’t, but this caught my eye
making task lists so that I can see everything and make sure it gets done
this kind of commitment might be getting in the your way of getting anything done. it might sound paradoxical, but you need to fully accept and embrace your limitations, including not being able to get done what you set out to get done. instead of trying to do what you “need” to do, focus on just doing what you can do and accept that everything else will not get done. which might mean that you might fail to do important tasks, but that’s a better alternative than getting nothing done
having adhd, especially if you’re unmedicated, means you’re constantly mitigating the consequences of not completing essential, periodic tasks. half your efforts will go towards paying interest (metaphorically and literally). this might sound bleak, but once you truly understand and fully accept that, it will be easier to cope with not being able to do everything you need to do and celebrate whatever you are able to. then you will be able to make the most out of your efforts with the least amount of suffering possible
(if you can, delegate tasks you have the most trouble with to people who are willing to help and fully understand what having adhd means)
also, whatever method you use to manage your tasks, it is crucial to make it as simple as possible and make it auxiliary instead of binding. in my case, what i found to help recently are post-it notes. in your case, it might be something else
good luck!

is merkuro supposed to be a kontact/kmail replacement?
do you have any numbers on that?
agreed. they already told us the company is based, no need to tell they have ties to the ccp
oh, i forgot gnome forces you to reboot after each update (plasma just installs the updates in the background after you ask it to)
if you don’t mind me asking: why? in my experience, keeping the system up to date is usually effortless
emacs (the master
branch)
it’s surprisingly less buggy and way faster than the prebuit, stable version. it also doesn’t take very long to compile new changes if you keep building from a local git clone
i wish i didn’t need a terminal emulator
in the meantime, emacs is a decent replacement
unless i’m missing something, any distro will do. i’d personally go with debian, but that’s my choice. opensuse is also an excellent choice if you want easy to use config tools
that’s entirely configurable
