I don’t buy much clothes but I’m in need to order some new ones. Zalando was great because of the vast selection of brands - despite them making it harder to filter on environmentally better options already several years ago. Now I don’t want to use them any more. Any suggestions for good, ethical and preferably environmentally friendly online stores for Sweden/EU?

It doesn’t have to be a person or an entity or deity.

I haven’t been nerdying on religion for much long many moons but AFAICR Buddhism has this core idea that “yeah we have symbols and chants and icons and totems and rituals and we pray but the more we dedicate ourselves we understand that they are just there for us to see beyond them into the nothing and the everything”. In Buddhism this has evolved into place, so it would be interesting to see if it was possible to kickstart straight into some sort of non deity centric anti religion without the animistic precursory heritage.

I’d prefer not to. I’d like to make it Buddhist philosophy inspired non-religion if possible. But people seem to have this need of something to gather around and have rituals and festivities and believe in so religion is still useful. I’m thinking it would be easier to get everybody pulling together early on in a theocracy though the deep teaching aims to dissolve itself.

The teachings would promote (or demand) something of an egalitarian society with food and shelter and healthcare for everybody and encourage learning and education and culture and arts and own responsibility and critique and discussion and questioning the whole shebang in orderly fashion with ongoing goals of improving it for everybody.

First steps would be to create a religion with all the usual “be kind and caring and patient and forgiving and nice in general to others and yourself” and then “do not be an asshole unless the others were an asshole first and then you may respond in moderation with an appropriate pinch of extra salt” and the ritual of an Aztec pyramid with slice and dice and flush them down the sewage sacrifice of any billionaires and power hungry totalitarians and corrupt public servants. Every year that do not require any sacrifice pleases the gods. But any year it is needed, the gods are content that required action was taken.

Biological programming goes a long way.

It goes hand in paw with being instinctively scared of things that can potentially kill you and other species evolution with patterns and markings that make them less likely to become a succulent meal, Chinese or not.

Some preemptive advice if you’re in the market of integrating TTS for some customer or service:

Do not ever use any “humanisation” tweaks. Having a computer voice stumble on a word or fucking cough is uncanny valley and how to make people feel manipulated in one simple trick.

Just don’t. Everybody hates it.

Another twenty plus years Linux server and devices admin and user that found last year that Linux is finally mature and stable enough to replace my desktop too without having the fiddle with it every once in a random update. It was a decision that I can accept making workarounds for legacy windows software and l can live without other eco system. Yeah, there are plenty of reasons that people are still running Windows and keep doing so.

Don’t make being user of an operating system your identity, people. It’s just as annoying and unnecessary as those Apple fanboys we all know and dislike.

I have an Asustor that is running Debian. It’s just a PC in a NAS enclosure so why should it not.

Awesome! Cheers dude

I looked up long time ago about rooting my paperwhite gen 10 but couldn’t find anything. Care to share if you have some links?

Variants and derivates of Debian on my servers and other headless devices because no reason except I know it, it is stable, it works.

Been trying linux for desktop every five-ten years for the last twenty odd years and went back to Windows every time because it was too bad experience despite I really tried to like it.

Except this time.

Fedora KDE on my laptop, soon on my stationary as well. No more Windows for me.

And The Game. Wait, you can’t!

Well, there is the inside club that did pretty much this

It was never about tariffs. It was always about manipulation of the market.

Another potential cause for random slowdown, errors and crashes could be overheating. Check that the fans are spinning and airflow is unobstructed. I don’t remember from the top of my head and I’m not near a computer but maybe somebody else remembers his to check that all sensors are detected and operational.

Then we do not agree at all. I think key is to help people to help themselves to learn, sometimes by telling them to figure it out themselves when you know it is something that is an easy peasy figure for anybody that actually makes an attempt at it. Not to provide answers until you feel the community is big enough to not accept slop any more because arbitrary feels and then abandon ship. And who are you to decide and tell people to leave, me now and others later? Putting on some tall horse big balls pants there my dude community boss.

Btw, none of this is what enshittification means, just for your information. And as a gift, I bestow upon you this quest to learn what it actually means, all by yourself! It will provide you with knowledge and skills to carry for the rest of your life. Yay! You may now downvoted because I made you pissy, but sometimes getting pissy is required for personal growth.

Following your speculative reasoning - sure, until this forum too much like any other before it becomes swamped with non questions like this and becomes heavily moderated by necessity and users like yourself are upset that moderators are not doing their non paid volunteer work and then for doing it.
