  • oh i meant that the american reading ability, which is closely tied to the education system, is averaging sixth grade; that also means they lack the education to analyze texts and information above what is written; things like intent of an author, what the context is and what someone wants to achieve with the published information are completely lost when you lack the ability to read above a certain level. this is completely homemade, mainly by republicans who like their voters easily controlled.












  • I’m the same with Roccat / now Turtle Beach. It’s not even their policies, but their hardware is easy to repair yourself if its a small fix, and i hadn’t any device die on me yet in the last 10 years where it wasn’t selfinflicted a.k.a drown the Keyboard in half a liter of soda - the second time; sadly the liquid reached the rgb-ic which shorted so hard that it melted before i could do anything.

    Their driver support for linux could be better tho (have to switch to the windows VM and use USB passthrough to configure). has anyone a recommendation for gaming keyboard/mice which support macros and multiple layers under linux?



  • Wildmimic@anarchist.nexustolinuxmemes@lemmy.worldDo you like systemd?

    I fully agree. I am a user with a bit of technical background, but not a lot of detailled knowledge about the inner workings of an operating system (i know boolean logic and basic programming structures - in Pascal lol - from the 90’s, what a transistor does and stuff, how to build my own PCs and handle filesystems and troubleshooting).

    With init scripts, i hit a wall pretty fast.

    With Systemd i know how to start, stop and configure services, and the suite built around it uses the same conventions everywhere, making the everyday life with Linux for someone like me so much easier and more transparent than ever before.



  • They weren’t incompetent, they were under active surveillance because of their link to organized crime, and the surveilling cops realized they were going to carry out a hit on a target at the daycare - probably chosen purely because they knew that the target was gonna pick up their child at a specific time - and rang the alarm bells. The daycare center itself wasn’t a target, but if something were to go wrong at the hit it might have caused collateral damage (it might even if nothing went wrong, if the children were to see someone burning to death - the 2 gas cans spell out that this thing was to send a message)

    The cops did actually good this time, doing real police work instead of mass surveillance of the whole population.
