I’m willing to bet the poster isn’t aware just about every website they visit is built on an open source stack.

Not sure it’s grey, it’s great when big corporate give back, just ot when they take over and pervert the ideals of open source to their breaking point.

I’m not saying you you should or shouldn’t, but if you did, I’ve heard it’s possible to access a backup of the original even if you don’t have an original disc.

What planet is America on? Nowhere else in the world is knocking on someone’s door considered something that would get you shot. It’s bizarre.

This might be controversial, but at some point just buy a decent repro on AliExpress.

😂 are you consuming market data for the entirety of North America?

Been a few years since I looked, but HP’s DL line used to be reasonably affordable.

Not to mention the work valve have done to bring gaming to a whole other operating system!

I have a chest freezer in my garage full of bananas that begs to differ.

Yes, yes it is.

I thought so too, then I discovered lego

Just to fully expound on what you’re saying, it was a rootkit, literally malware.

Honestly, I think they’re a troll account. In general Lemmy took a bit more effort for me personally to sign up to vs Reddit, I had to figure out an instance and roughly how it worked before signing up and the political stance of the devs came up. I mostly assumed most people went through a similar process.

The annual cycle is quite nice from a buyer’s perspective too, when I need a new phone I’ve got a reasonable idea that Google aren’t going to release a new device in a couple of months and leave me feeling shafted.

Evidently clueless in more way than one. No worries botski

What exactly were you expecting when you shifted to the Reddit alternative whose main developers were communist? You’re either clueless or a bot.

You shouldn’t really wear your contacts if they’re going to come into contact with water, they will indeed trap parasites against the eye that would under normal circumstances get cleared away.
