I really hope someone is archiving their good old stuff, because it won’t take long for discovery to delete everything to save a few bucks.

It’s a big thing because it’s much easier to make fun of an objectively better lifestyle choice (avoiding meat or Microsoft etc.) than it is to try and argue against it. Especially because that would force people to question their own behaviour and that can be difficult and hurtful.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What is the most noob friendly video editing software on Linux?
3·2 years agoDaVinci is a great piece of software, but is VERY limited on Linux. The lack of mp4 support in the free version is enough to not recommend it for a newbie.

News@lemmy.world•Phones are distracting students in class. More states are pressing schools to ban them
71·2 years agoYours is the first comment I see that thinks further than “phones bad, mkay”. Thanks for that. I am a teacher myself, and I don’t see the phones themselves being the problem, but the fact that the curriculum is totally outdated and irrelevant to this generation and the students know this. I have personally fought to get some ‘technology weeks’ (where I teach 3D modelling, animation and programming) and the phones stay in the students pockets for the entirety of those classes (without me telling them to!), because the subject is relevant, interesting and actually requires for them to think creatively instead of just memorising facts.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s use of student data could effectively ban Chromebooks from Denmark schoolsEnglish
811·2 years agoI teach technology in Denmark. I am so glad I convinced the school administrators to let me buy a bunch of refurbished Thinkpads and throw Linux on them, instead of being roped into either Google or Microsoft hell like so many other schools. The students seem to enjoy using the machines too (especially after they discovered Minetest).

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is Linux pretty much unusable with an Nvidia GPU?

The most unexpected plot twist of the century would be Putin coming out as trans. Would be interesting to see how republicans would react to that.
