I can’t speak for others but for myself basically zero.

Because the rental cost of non new releases was so low it hardly made sense for movies I would only watch once or twice a year. In addition due to the frequent replaying on cable of many movies that would further reduce my need to pirate.

Piracy for me has almost always been a service or availability problem.

We only work in freedom units here.

or return to Underground, i loved street racing and late night drift sessions.

agree on the move on part, but not the block community part, sometimes there is some funny stuff in that “community” As a vegan Arch user I have to get a good laugh from time to time at myself (not really vegan, and only Arch derived distro)

True but that’s far less of an issue for most mainstream distros. If it works on one Linux distro then it probably works on another or a reasonable tech person can address the missing dependencies.

While I don’t love flat packs it’s one thing they do tend to solve.

I am disappointed at professional application support, but not with Linux specifically. In my professional life I have needed to use products like Visio, Adobe Suite, Autodesk software, and others.

I am often forced to use Windows for my work computer because of these limitations, and while I realize its not the fault of Linux, the lack of install base demanding professional applications run on Linux is a community issue. While I always prefer FOSS over PROP software, sometimes I really do need to run PROP software on linux, and that means convincing enough people to demand that support from the developer.

He was already dead when I got there.

Because my legs always ache at least a little. And because my wife broke my family and my heart.

I can’t remember if I payed it today, should probably pay it again to be safe.

Classic techniques like box breathing, meditation, and stimulation reduction really do help.

They are not instant won’t work 100% of the time but using them can reduce the length of a stress event.

Box breathing is taking a deep breath holding for a 3 count, existing slowly, holding for a 3 count, and repeat.

Crossing your arms around your chest almost like a self hug and tapping with you hands at the same time can also help bring you out of a cycle and into a calmer place.

Stimulation reduction is just that. Don’t do screens or games leading up to calm down time. Grab a physical book, put on some soothing music at low volume, use a white noise app or fan. The goal is to disengage the brain from whatever it’s been latched too.

I also find a calm friendly conversation also can help if none of the others are. So if you are still locked in or wound up, calling or texting a friend can help. Just don’t start doom scrolling.

Do you have a better suggestion?

Update my beliefs based on the new evidence.

So much this.

I tried looking around my library and only found one Lem book but I am sure I have more… So I will keep looking.

Solaris, the new version is decent but it’s a totally different movie and just can’t do the original justice.

Second place for me is girl with the dragon tattoo. The original is just better.

Somewhere along the way we stopped holding them accountable.

It probably started with the Nixon pardon and then continued with Reagan who should have actually been held accountable for his treason with the Iran Contra scandals.

It’s just been downhill since and Trump has taken it to a whole new level of corruption and was crimes.

I would love to see Obama held accountable for his drone policies, Biden for is support of genocide, Trump for everything, W. For his war crimes.

Should probably post this in /askMormons.

I probably have and just dont remember all the details.

You still have not said anything about an alternative to Platner, or how you benefit from taking him down. Whats is all this effort for other than to help out Collins, Schumer, Trump, Bibi, or Putin?
