I mostly use LibreOffice, Firefox, qBitTorrent, VLC and the Terminal (sudo apt-get update)
I don’t notice much difference.
I’m just wondering why do OS need new releases?
Is there really such a huge difference between Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 ? Because I don’t see them.

192·20 days agoCaffeine is an addictive substance.
If you are used to drinking coffee and don’t have your daily dose, you will feel terrible. Some people are very sensitive to caffeine and may experience anxiety.
I’m a caffeine addict so I’m biased here. I should perhaps reduce my coffee intake and switch to tea. I just can’t get my self to do it.
However, studies found coffee is not actually a dangerous addiction:

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•The US would rather make people homeless than build apartments without parking, study findsEnglish
131·26 days agoAcross the United States, zoning codes require new developments to provide a minimum number of parking spaces, which carry substantial construction costs.
In this report, we use 2025 construction cost estimates from Rider Levett Bucknall to calculate the cost per space in 17 U.S. cities and combine these data with local minimum parking requirements to estimate how parking mandates increase total construction costs across building types.
We find that parking construction costs have risen substantially faster than inflation since 2012 and that required parking can account for a large share of total project costs—adding tens of thousands of dollars per housing unit and, in some cases, increasing total construction costs by more than 50%.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK About Ali Khamenei's fatwa against nuclear weapons
115·25 days agoYou should know this because one of the reasons Trump’s been trying to use to justify this war is that Iran never said they wouldn’t pursue nuclear weapons.
Iran doesn’t want to get nukes
You think a religious dude that just gunned down tens of thousands of his own people is honest?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran_massacres
Iran has repeatedly denied access to International Nuclear Inspectors:

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce3v6w2qr12o
I don’t like Trump. I don’t like Netanyahu. I don’t like this stupid war.
But this idea that Iran just isn’t interested in nukes is a joke. They have been absorbing crippling sanctions to enrich uranium far-above civilian grade.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that Ayatollah Khamenei built a secret organization called BAYT. This organization is more powerful than the government and employs 40,000 people. The goal was to make sure killing him is uselessEnglish
47·28 days agoYou know, if the President of this organization told me “We need to bomb Iran”, I would not listen to him. Their goal is to stop Iran from obtaining nukes, by any means necessary. It’s literally their name.
But that doesn’t mean everything they publish is total non-sense.
They actually have very knowledgeable people who write interesting reports. You just need to keep a critical eye.

What happens when someone does something morally wrong but legal?
If a law is bad, you change the law. That’s how it works in any democracy.
If americans want a better healthcare system, all they have to do is change the law.
The issue is that :
1. Americans vote for corrupt people. Rick Scott was convicted of defrauding Medicaid and Medicare. He was still elected by the people of Florida
2. Americans insist on giving some empty states 2 senators.
3. Americans insist that the Senate needs a super-majority to vote any bill
These flaws are why americans can’t have healthcare.
Ultimately, it’s up to americans to fix their political system to make it more representative if they want healthcare. Killing random CEOs isn’t going to work.
Xi Zhongxun, the father of Xi Jinping, was accused of being anti-communism.
That was a lie. He was actually communist. It didn’t matter. He was savagely beaten up by an angry crowd. They broke his teeth. Then, he was thrown in prison without any trial.
I don’t like mob rule. I like having a court system.
Politicians don’t fall from the sky. If you vote for crazy politicians, they will do crazy shit.
