Asahi Cinnamon
Seeing as how I don’t like either Gnome or KDE, though I did give KDE a try, I decided to switch to Cinnamon. Yes, that picture looks odd, I’m short on monitors that’ll fit on the space I have left on my desk, so I’m using an old Dell with a 4:3 ration thanks to an HDMI to VGA converter. Some how there’s dust in the...

Trolley problem Pt. 2: A cancer hospital, limited funds, patients of various ages and conditions. Should there be a universal answer?
I’d assume we want everyone to survive and carry on with their lives equally. Yet, if we can’t, there’s a choice of distributing our doctors’ time and equipments towards some of patients rather than others....
To those who know about writing and such: Does a Mary Sue/Gary Stu NEVER fail? or their failings are to minimal to take account on them?
I’m writing a story and I’m worried that I might inadvertently turn one of my main characters into a Mary Sue. I’d like to know if it’s enough to give her the odd flaw or imperfection or if I should be more drastic and make her screw up big time.
Is there anyone who can help me mod and style a community? Or do I need to do it on my own?

Any idea how to fix this annoying message when having ‘‘TTV LOL PRO’’ extension installed on FireFox? The Twitch Adblocker seems to be detected and gives either this message or a infinite loading circle.
Suggestions for General Public
I’ve recently started a job driving a shuttle van across the city for the general public. I’ve got a wide amount of leeway, but the audiobooks I’ve been listening to have been… not hitting right. I started with “The Name of the Wind” which was extremely well reviewed. I liked it a lot for the most part, and for the...

Is there anything like Native Alpha using the Firefox engine?
I have been loving Native Alpha. Being able to use web versions of apps and not be forced to hand over absurd privacy violating permissions is awesome. My only problem is it appears to run straight off of Chrome’s web engine, and I would rather use Firefox. In large part because of extensions/addons.

Debian 12 install - monitors won't turn off
Hi, all. Finally migrated from Kubuntu to Debian 12 over the weekend. It’s working great, as I figured it would, with one exception: The system isn’t turning the monitors off after 10 minutes. It’s blanking them, but they’re clearly still on....

Linux never existed. This whole time UNIX was just a conspiracy started by big corpo to sell more socks.
