I showed you my country wide power outage. Please respond.
Well... if our power grid drops out due to "extreme temperature variations", I have my ebook reader charged, I have a good amount of AA and AAA batteries, I have an old MP3 player ready (the kind that runs with AAA batteries), a simple portable radio, a few roms loaded in my phone's Retroarch, and a bluetooth gamepad that has a surprisingly long battery life.
I'm fairly confident I'm not at risk of getting bored. Though I can't rely that much on gaming on my phone. Still, it would hold longer than a laptop. And I could probably charge it a few times over from my laptop and power bank.

It's been a weird spring in my part of Europe. Before Easter, we've had that polar vortex thing going, and it was cold as fuck. Then it got really warm during and after Easter. Then Friday-Sunday it was mostly cloudy, and got somewhat cold again.

As a non electrical engineer, the only thing I can say for sure is that collapsing the energy grid of an entire country would likely be caused by a synchronization failure. The only question is what caused the synchronization failure.
Spain regularly deals with high heat. It's kinda their thing. And it's not even summer yet. So this is a retarded excuse. They were better off blaming a solar storm.

I don't trust fascists. 
And yes, at this point, as far as I'm concerned, EU is a fascist organization.
@binkle @BasedLunatic
I personally don't believe them, but I guess this is the official story.
@adiz Not really. Protecting intellectual property is needed. The issue is with companies like Sony who abuse DMCA takedowns.
Man... was I ever lucky watching the vod just in time. Also, fuck Sony so fucking hard.

brb installing Windows
@arcana
All jokes aside, if nuclear WW3 starts up because of India-Pakistan instead of Russia-Ukraine, China, N. Korea or Iran/Hamas-Israel, A LOT of people are gonna be losing a lot of bets.
@earthling As a Linux user, I view 99% of Linux users as imbeciles that are completely divorced from the realities of what the average computer user wants and needs from an OS. They've been stuck in their "moral high ground" for so long, that they're simply disconnected from how a Windows user uses their PC.
As such, I'll never actually recommend Linux to a Windows user. Not even because it couldn't work for them. It very well might. But because I KNOW that when they have an issue (and it is a matter of when, not if), the "help" they'll get from other Linux users will be complete and utter shit.

@SuperDicq >Normies using Linux on top of proprietary operating systems does not help us with anything.
and neither is nagging on them to use some super esoteric setup gonna do anything, if they want to use the easy stuff they are gonna use the easy stuff, me personally, i just pick what works, because i recognise and work on my moral failings that are all substantially higher on the list than "using software with a restrictive license", i avoid google like the plague and remove the stuff i don't like, but i don't lose hairs about it, and neither does anybody else, i know there is some level of google nonsense i have to deal with, and it's whatever, i removed most of the problem, 80% of the problem gone with 20% of the effort.
>Android for example has made Linux into one of the most widely used kernels in the world.
>Has this brought us any advancements in terms of software freedom?
no but it makes a mid operating system (not that i thing smartphones are an invention that brought much "pros" to my life) yeah there is proprietary parts to the whole operating system, but it is an "operating system", it doesn't need to be fully free, just mostly free as to get the benefits a person has when using free software.
but the question here is, how does people start using an operating system that is more free, rather than all proprietary, harm the free software movement? it would get more support, and more people would be knowledgeable.
and then the question is? is the problem here that it is harmful to free software movements? or is the problem that pewdiepie failed to properly portray free software, and the movement? thus getting people into a sort of uneducated expectation?

Pewdiepie advised a lot of people to get into Linux and Fosstards still are ungrateful for it.
you need to understand, those people don't want some thinkpad librebooted device with fully free graphics drivers, they just want to use something easy to pick up and better, Linux is now easy to use, minimal drawbacks for a lot of people and some, just straight up none.
to everyone their idea of linux is the practical considerations, less nagging and garbage on the screen, smoother, and more privacy are the benefits they are looking for, they couldn't really give any less of a shit about software ethics, let alone software copyright ethics.
and the "Gnu/Linux" and "Free software" language police is pretty dumb too, the point of language is to convey an idea, i understand autism drives you to care about all this stuff, but you end up making people think you are stupid, because why WOULD they care about specific language, they just don't wanna get raped in the ass by MS that's all there is to it.

@mischievoustomato
Did you set up fstab to automount removable storage?
Also, this kind of thing is why I always disable the fancy splash screen for any Linux distro I use. I want to see the wall of text, so I can see any error that pops up, anything unusual in the boot process.
So is it gonna be that Monster Hunter and Oblivion Remaster will be the best games of the year?
I just realized that people who are old enough to vote might have no idea who Steve Irwin is... damn...
