Agreed, but I am more of a "Shift + I" kind of guy

Some Slavic languages, such as Russian, use Roman numerals for numbering centuries

I mean isn't Lemmy licensed under the AGPL? I'm just asking because AFAIK a proprietary client is not even allowed under this license.

Please. For the love of god, NEVER use a proprietary app to use a piece of FOSS software. I think it's kind of sad that we have this amazing FOSS social network and people use fucking proprietary software to use it.

Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I'll not name, not doxxing myself).

Me downloading this meme knowing it will end up unlooked at, just like the hundreds of memes before it.

Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I'd rather use Tails than something I've never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?

Can someone please explain? Does the US only have two political parties? That sounds horrendously undemocratic. I know next to nothing about US politics so I may be wrong.

Edit: Also, why is one party called "Democratic" and the other "Republican"? Does this make the Republican party non-democratic? Is this a non-official naming scheme that people created or does seriously only one of them support democracy? Thank you for the answers :)
