I see, thanks for the inside look!

It certainly rings very badly.

Would you like to tell more on the gatekeeping aspect? Imma be honest, I’m not a seasoned volunteer and would like to know more.

Maybe take some volunteering, then?

Or would it be too hard/not useful to make yourself start doing something like that?

It’s a loop that is hard to quit once you’ve entered it.

I wish you success; maybe a good digital detox on the countryside with some simple books, field work and joys may help to reset your mind?

Not before their brains start to rot by using those in the first place

It’s scary to see how even the older generation gains reduced attention span, reduced ability to learn and need for instant gratification on this short dopamine machine.

Cool promising future that failed to currently deliver for most

Some could not be happier, though.

Honestly, Manjaro community differs from place to place as well.

Russian Manjaro community didn’t go much far from Arch one. English, though, is very decent.

The contrast is very strong with the Arch Wiki, which does a genuinely good job - for a set of short articles - at explaining how that whole machinery works. Yet, if you don’t understand something from there - good luck finding a person to explain what to do.

Written in a typical rude condescending hacker speak.

Let’s call it for what it is - it’s more of a frustration vent than a guide. And this approach will certainly not make these people read through.

There are always way more polite ways to put it, like:

“Most of the questions you face about software are replied to by unpaid volunteers taking spare time to help you - thereby, the more effort you’ll put into properly filing the issue, the quicker you’ll get a response. Here are main points that we may need in order to help with your problem, and a way to obtain all information required”

Great! Sail bravely, for we’re heading into the exciting waters of the future!

Rarr!

A new media for the new generation. In an era of ever-growing flow of information, it’s only natural pieces are more and more condensed and visual. That’s how we got here.

Us neither, I just converted

They’re all screwing you over so bad, it’s 1,20€ in my country

This entire tipping thing is terrible - including for dashers themselves.

It means dashers income heavily relies on strangers being kind enough to leave some extra.

It means customers are gonna feel bad for not paying more than their order amount (and they probably will pay the tip)

It means company can employ slave labor for extremely low pay and still have people willing to do this.

Tipping benefits only one party - the companies. We need to stop it.

-Work 27 years without a day off, following every advice to “stop being lazy and work”

-Still not being able to afford housing without generous donations

I mean, first we stop bloodshed, second we start negotiations and high-level diplomacy.

War is currently the highest priority, and then come all the issues around apartheid and Israel’s actions in peace time

Yes, with some of them coming back and stealing houses and murdering families, too.

Look, never have I ever argued they are right; what happens in Palestine is a bunch of war crimes and I really hope Netanyahu and company will suffer grave consequences.

People are super quick to trigger on the subject.

But human psychology is flawed, especially after traumatizing events; I’m only saying that it’s natural for Israelis to behave this way, even if not right, and when people are fanatically holding some position (because they see the alternative as eventual death, y’know), hatred might not be the solution.

Right now, as people die, we should focus on what’s effective, not a knee-jerk. That’s why police holds negotiations with terrorists, for example. Because it’s more effective at preserving human lives, not because they sympathize.

I want this war to end as soon as possible. Do you?

That’s not pure aluminium, it’s chemically altered. Everything is possible.

Did Nazis get convinced they are baddies?

That’s what’s most important at the end of the day.

Also, the parallels are incorrect, Jews did not attack Germans
