How are they getting around it?

I mean, you’re quite literally writing this on a social media platform that doesn’t comply with their law.

it’s the 30mm GAU-8 rotary cannon that goes brrrrt

What good does changing the headline do?

I’ve been thinking of creating a new account through Tor, so that I could reconnect with my former communities who are still active there since

Don’t create an account, use (or host) a Redlib instance, subscribe to your favourite subreddits and then bookmark it afterwards, that’s what I do.

Well that’s interesting,

I ran journalctl -xe expecting not to get much of an output however, my log is full of:

Appears to be related to my wallpaper, perhaps the KDE Wallpaper Engine plugin i use borked, however i never did mention in the main post but i did backup and reset my desktop environment following Debians documentation and that didn’t resolve the hanging issue either so i am hesitant to say the desktop itself is borked, seems more like a dependency that’s failing to talk with plasma.

Edit: After doing some digging it appears others have encountered the same kwin error message along with comments of freezing and crashing. Appears to be a driver issue and is patched in 580.xx versions which Debian 13 does not ship on its stable branch.

systemd-analyze Can tell you about how long thing took to start, and the -blame flag can help pinpoint hangs and so on.

I ran this command the output is as such:

Startup finished in 7.208s (firmware) + 2.336s (loader) + 3.601s (kernel) + 15.279s (userspace) = 28.426s 
graphical.target reached after 15.279s in userspace.

Which is weird, i timed how long it took from rebooting to landing at the desktop and i got between 5-6 minutes, 30 seconds to reboot and land at SDDM but another 4.5-5 minutes actually loading the desktop itself.

Can I assume you use https://privacy.com/ for this? If so unfortunately only Americans can utilize that service.

Might be worth a look into.

Alternatively you could check if you have Debian repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list.d because PopOS is based off of Debian at its core, and follow Debian’s guide to installing KDE, I do not recommend adding Debian’s repositories if you do not already have them as you may install conflicting packages/dependencies by mistake.

What desktop environment are you using? That shortcut is already available in KDE Plasma 5/6.

Don’t get me wrong here, I understand the pushback from the community in this regard and i’m not try to defend proprietary software licensing.

I’m more of letting the original commenter know that they actually don’t own the game or game files they purchase from common store-fronts, they simply own a license to download and play the game.

People don’t like being proven wrong, and often try to dismiss it with some variation of “Im not gonna sit here and be told the whatfer by some random idiot”

Sounds like you’re describing yourself here.

• Refused to accept documentation from a valid source.

• Instead of having a discussion, you proceed with a pointless “Sure, buddy” at an attempt to deflect from the topic.

So when it came to registering on Lemmy, that popped up in my head and bobs your uncle.

Real nice honeypot too, every time someones wrong and backs themselves into a corner instead of admitting they are wrong, they inevitably give some variation of “living up to your user name, huh”, which just continues to prove that the actual idiot is the one lashing out like that.

You chose to make the two comments above, I simply humoured your ignorance and lack of understanding of the subject.

Username checks out.

Suggest reading into software licensing and understand the different types of licenses that could be used.

Make us individual game owners pay license every time we download and install the game?

This is how it’s been done for decades now? Every game you purchase off of Steam, Xbox, PlayStation is just a license to play that game.

If I remember correctly, Walmart does have televisions up in the tech department displaying advertisements and trailers for movies and games.

Ffs be a parent and this never would have happened. Sounds like father is the delusional one.

His son was 36, his responsibility to babysit every little thing his child did ended at 19. The Father is not to blame for what his adult son had done.

Sheesh enough with the conspiracies, y’all are out of hand, and this is coming from a conservative leaning voter.

GrapheneOS is great and all but I refuse to willingly give google a single dollar for their hardware.

When GrapheneOS can be installed on any device is when I’ll gladly make that switch, and hopefully one day Apple iPhones can run other operating systems.
