Romance language word order noun_descriptor is the right way.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Sure. I can’t wait to finally make the switch (Nvidia).

Such beings do not deserve to use computers. We’re talking about humans here, not our monkey ancestors.

shrugs idk. Vlc has more features. Not sure I’d call it easier.

Mpv is better

Oh gawd, I hate that (sorry 😅). But so long as it was just an option, even a default one, that would be fine with me.

I think Gnome wins as I have it. But I would take the vanilla macos shell (not the underlying OS, just the shell) over vanilla Gnome.

Oh, there’s a fair amount if those here too.

Nextcloud notes. They’ll sync as text filed between your devices. You can use markdown, and they have a mobile app.

Great answer. I do use systemd boot on one of my systems as well. It isn’t exactly systemd itself is it? Simply a boot loader packaged as part of the general systemd boot suite, right?

Lol. Agreed. Me and my partner both cook but not together.

Oh yeah. I absolutely hate this new trend.

People argue about dumb stuff here too. We are still humans after all.

Agreed about lemmy.world being cringe and lame. Gonna find a new instance as soon as I can find the time to do so.

Yeah, no. The Middle East, for example, is heading leftwards by leaps and bounds. It just seems slow from the standpoint of a single human lifetime. Remember, they were, with a few exceptions, warring desert bands on horses only a bit over 100 years ago. Not saying there aren’t exceptions (Iran, which, is sort of Middle-East-adjacent, would be an example).

The same trend is true all over the world. The thing is people get too emotional that they lose sight of secular trends for the ups and down of individual months and years. Just compare the culture now to 30 or 40 years ago. It very well might be a good strategy in getting what they want, it might even be necessary to keep cultural momentum going in the direction they want it to go, so, in that sense, it might be necessary. Seeing the truth is not necessarily a “good” or even advantageous thing.

But this attitude doesn’t reflect reality.

As I said, America is a cultural hegemony at the moment. It does export a lot of its culture, but far from all of it’s culture.

I think the direction the world is moving is a bit of a mixed bag. With LGBT stuff, it is moving far to the left very quickly. With things like workers rights it has stagnated or moved rightwards somewhat. It’s true that the Western world has seen the emergence of the alt-right in the past decade. But there is an alt-left or far left that has also been gaining in prominence. Generally just deviation from the political center in both directions.

I’m an American who has lived in Spain for the past 11 years. I’ve grown up in the States, worked in the States as a young person, still visit frequently, but my professional, personal, and cultural life has not been primarily there for some time.

I am telling you, both cultures have their dumb preoccupations, their misconceptions, and their morons.

The idea of “America is so bad, Americans are so dumb” is exactly the same ideology as American exceptionalism. It is just as wrong.

Haha, I think we’re similar people. I also want a 16:10 screen. Maybe someday.

Just let them do what they want to do. They can live their life the way they choose.
