How often do petitions actually affect change? I feel like I see petitions being mentioned a lot, but rarely do I see change as a reult. It feels like they are just another form of "thoughts and prayers". You feel like you're contributing something, but a few days go by and the collective amnesia sets in.

Also it is hilariously difficult to decline a call on Google dialer.

It's as simple as swiping down on the screen. I agree it's a little under-sensitive if you try to swipe down from the circle with the icon at the bottom. But you can swipe down from anywhere on the screen and it will decline the call.

"Lockup" is an investment term. When a company has an IPO (Initial Public Offering, which is the day they become publically available for stock trades), the big shareholders and company employees who are invested ahead of the IPO are "locked" from selling their shares for a certain number of days. This isn't required, but most companies having an IPO end up having a lockup period set as well.

In regards to this headline, it just means that the initial investors and big shareholders are now free to sell their shares, which they are apparently doing in droves!

Why do you need to know the gender of the partner? That it not important to know, nor does it matter. This just tells me you have preconceived notions about how they should act and want to formulate your response based on their gender. And if any of the post is confusing to you, you just have poor reading comprehension. :)

I realized shortly after posting my reply that your post was created 30 days ago. Not 30 minutes lol. Glad you got it fixed!

I had something similar happen to me with Debian 12. I believe pressing ALT + F7 after it reached that "power off" message forced the computer to power off. Something caused it to get stuck, but I'm not 100% sure. It may have been some bug with my Samba file share setup, but I have no way of confirming that.

Not sure if this will work for you, but it's worth a try. Good luck and hope you solve the issue!

That's why American conservative patriots love eagles so much

I believed it to be an absolute fact that all cats are female and all dogs are male. I had no idea how reproduction worked at this point, so it just made sense to me.

Then one day, a classmate was talking about her cat and how "HE" had done something funny. I had to clarify, "Your cat is a boy?!?" and my entire understanding of animals was shattered that day.

It goes much deeper than just coffee shops and other public wifi. There are people in oppressive countries that have to use VPNs to get around their country-wide bans of certain sites, such as anything that provides access to information. Reddit used to be a sanction for tons of information sharing. But now, with Reddit going public, they have to appeal to their shareholders, who probably have business or other deals in those oppressive countries. So, even if Reddit is simply trying to force users to be trackable, it still behooves the shareholders to make information and knowledge more difficult to access to certain people.

Nobody said anything about Resolve being bad. The topic of this conversation and community is Open Source, so a closed source suggestion was not relevant.

Fucking morons will continue to vote for Genocide Joe anyway.

And no idea what Trump has to do with this.

Because Dictator Donnie is the only other option. Believing any other candidate is even a viable choice is delusional. American politics is fucked so voting for 3rd party is not remotely helpful. You either vote for Joe or are complicit in the MAGA agenda.
