What will happen to all the USA TikTok creators once the ban on TikTok takes effect?
  • Are YouTube shorts still 1 minute maximum? Until that changes, I don't think they'll be a viable replacement since content longer than a minute seems to be the sweet spot for a sizeable amount of Tiktok's user base. Especially when it comes to informative or political content.

  • How to make a month go by as fast as possible other than sleeping
  • I smoke weed and watch TV. I also take Zoloft every day and it works pretty well at minimizing my intrusive thoughts too (which mostly happen at night) so it's like multi-pronged for me.

    Idk, if you've been going through this for a while and nothing in this thread works, you could look into antidepressants; you don't have to be on them forever. A lot of the common ones are somewhat affordable without insurance.

  • Linux market share passes 4% for first time; macOS dominance declines
  • I like Debian a lot, and Mint seems fine too, but I don't like the styling, or Cinnamon really. I use Fluxbox (WM only, no DE) with a bunch of tiny customizations.

    The main reason I picked it is that I like to tinker and she doesn't, so I think that Cinnamon will be the easiest for her coming from Windows 10.

    We both have AMD GPUs (and she has a AMD CPU too) so I haven't had to deal with Nvidia headaches.

    I like the glacial updates so things don't break as easily. I don't want to spend hours fixing a system (hers or mine tbh) unless I have to. For anything that I need the latest features for, there's usually a repo I can add to Aptitude or a Flatpak.

  • Rate of Young Women Getting Sterilized Doubled After ‘Roe’ Was Overturned
  • It's exceptionally difficult already for a woman to get sterilized. The decider may be whether sterilization has the same stigma/religious fervor around it that abortion has in that people will willingly waste their weekends off protesting against it.

    I'm optimistic, but America likes to disappoint me.

  • Greece introduces the six-day work week
  • All conservatives hear is:

    unemployment has been dropping like a rock from its peak

    That's all it takes for them to think, "wow, they're doing a great job!" Even when austerity measures mean they can't feed their families. It seems like it's true no matter where you go in the world.

  • Networking Dilemma
  • FWIW, these are effective only when both are used on the same circuit. If you live in an older home, the chances of this being the case are higher.

    My entire apartment, except for the washroom, is on the same circuit. It also means I can't run an air conditioner without tripping the breaker. :|

  • Canada reportedly preparing to evacuate 45,000 citizens from Lebanon amid war fears
  • What a nothing burger of an article. I'm so ashamed to be Canadian amidst our government's abject failure (really, it's a refusal) to rescue Palestinians through the asylum program that was proposed months ago.

    We are beholden to Israel, so I will be astonished if even 1/3 of the 45,000 actually end up here.
