I saw another post on here about kids playing as ICE in Roblox so it's happening today in the modern playground

Even the videos meant to look like organic content are dressed up so bad and are obvious ads.

This is why I don't use tiktok or reels, and when I watch a YouTube short I never scroll up

I know it may not be very 'based' to recommend a streaming service but Mubi has great stuff on there and is a much better use of your time than any social media

Ride Report: Bike Trailer in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I have a trailer pram for my kids and its great. I can fit two 2 year olds, their childcare bags, and even go do some small shopping before it fills up.

You notice the trailer on takeoff and up inclines, otherwise you barely notice it until you ride without a trailer. Since mine converts to a pram I don't have to worry about parking it anywhere as I'm generally taking it with me.

The two best things about it is we get the best parking everywhere as I can pull up out the front, and my boys love it. They like going for rides in the pram and much rather it to taking the car.

Father's day down here isn't until September, but I hope all the fathers in specific parts of the northern hemisphere enjoy themselves.

It's interesting seeing kids project gender roles onto things. I gave my boy two hotwheels busses last night and the smaller one became mummy bus and the big one was daddy bus. They can't answer why one is the mummy bus and one is the daddy bus, but I'm interested in having that conversation with them when they're ready.

You're doing something right in podcasting when people can even name your supporters

I'm sick of libs saying "violence has no place in our political system" in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 40 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Libs don't realise violence is built into the system and happens everyday. They don't realise violence is often the only way to undo these unjust systems. And they think you can over turn things operating within a system where the oppressors have a monopoly on violence and decide who gets to use it

The podcast Citations Needed. It's the profile pic to this comm.

It's the most based leftist podcast out there and I've been listening for years, so the way one of the hosts reads out the credits at the end of each episode is burned into my brain now

I'm going to talk to my local Repair Cafe about switching people over to Linux because of W10 EOL. Is there anything I should mention so they take it on board? (hexbear.net)
 

I saw the End of 10 campaign on other parts of Lemmy and wanted to get involved:

https://endof10.org/

I also do some tech support work on the side helping people at an aged care facility with their devices. I see people using their Windows computers and I just feel they would have such an easier time using Linux.

I reached out to my local Repair Cafe about End of 10 to help people switch over if they don't want to get a new device. They're happy to talk about so I want to make sure I clearly explain the value of switching to Linux, both to hold on to existing devices and move away from corporate spyware.

Here are the things I thought I'd bring up when I talk to them: -Linux is free, but not in the 'you're the product' way -Linux Mint is made to look and work similar to Windows to make the switch easier -It works on older hardware and takes less resources, so can often feel like a performance boost to an existing PC -No tracking or telemetry so what you do on your computer is private -Linux can cover the general computer use case of using a browser, word processing, image viewing, and maybe some light graphic design -There are free software equivalents to just about all major software you use on your PC -The package manager makes it easy to download and maintain software -You can give Linux a 'free trial' by bootloading into it before installing -You can dual partition so you can still run windows if you don't want to make the full switch -Games and Windows software can run on Linux with WINE if necessary -There's a huge community you can reach out to if you're stuck with anything Linux

I was thinking of using the analogy that software on Linux is a bit like shopping at Aldi. It doesn't have the major brands but there are free alternatives that do the same thing, and are often better than the paid versions you're used to.

I'd also bring an old laptop I put Mint on for my kids to play with. It's from 2012 and Windows stopped supporting the wireless drivers. It could connect to the internet with Mint right out of the box so that's one device already saved from e-waste with Linux.

Is there anything else you'd mention? I know there's deeper technical reasons why Linux is better but I want to keep it high level as I'm not sure of the technical proficiency of the people I'll be talking to.

When you want to play a game as intended but want to make sure the big boob mod doesn't clash with the futa mod and you have all the relevant dependencies for the Gangster Edition TM splash screen.
