i bet it was bc of me

You totally made this from my recent comment didn’t you:

If we’re getting upset by canonical inconsistencies I have to wonder what bothers you about the Discovery Klingons specifically when I see no mention of the significantly more comprehensive “reimagining” of the TMP (or later the TNG) Klingons? Just seems like an odd place to draw the line.

It was two years…

Just to be safe you may want to copy important files to a cloud storage AND usb drive before formatting the drive.

Also don’t overthink this and there is nothing wrong with Kubuntu, but Kinoite is going to be very similar and a little more resistant to n00b tinkering mistakes.

I don’t think starfleet captains have the authority to command the hearts and minds of their officers.

True, I edited my comment. I personally recommend the USB method (or if you have easy access to the internals- just swapping out an SSD).

It got cloudy

First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.

It’s to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/

They do not ask for a phone number.

It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux (also not easy). But honestly these days the times where you’ll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).

Not liking someone is not a good reason to root against decentralized platforms, IMO. The entire point of decentralization is that nobody gets to control the experience and who is/isn’t allowed to participate.

Unless he joins fedia.io you don’t really get a say in what he does… kind of the entire point behind decentralization…

It’s also an avenue for attacks.

The growth of the network*

There are many platforms in the Fediverse. The fact that the network can survive the collapse of one platform is a strength of decentralization. The Lemmy/mbin/piefed universe can only ever be exactly as big as we, the users, want it to be.

Ah yes, famous coward Harvey Milk /s

I feel like teachers are going to have to set aside time for essay writing in class instead of as homework.

Tinder started as a “hook-up” app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.
