  • I am more impressed you got windows 10 to work well on 8 year old computers ngl. I had an HP pavillion around that age and it had torturingly low startup speed.

    Definetely try mint-cinnamon and mint-xfce4, latter one uses xfce4 which has very good performance.

    A lot of experienced users will find linux run without bugs for them but that’s because it’s an OS that gets better as you learn more.

    In my case battery life was 2 hours on windows and 1.5 hours on linux. But once I past the skill-curve I tweaked it to be 6 hours because I knew how to find what caused the problem and fix it.

    Either that or there is the IT-guy effect going on where once an experienced user shows up the aura just makes computers work normal again lmao.













  • Detention centers aren’t even jails. You can be there even if you didn’t commit any crime. Also conditions are far worse than jails.

    In my case it was a cramped room with no beds or such, about 40 people at certain times, and one single toilet without any door inside that room. “Crime” was being an asylum-seeker

    You stay anywhere between 2 days to 6 months and your family members may stay a different amount of time.

    Closest picture I could find later was this and google search is so bad nowadays I have to check my message history to find it again.

    Photo of migrant detention centers. Basically a cage with too many people inside

    That was the conditions in 2018. I don’t want to think 2026.

    I keep posting this picture here because it’s inhumane and nobody fucking cares outside of lemmy.
