> However, if you want your pictures to last 10+ years under the sun

Ah yes, the standard usecase for a printer. putting pictures outside for a decade.

Printing a family picture on 4"x6" photo paper, framing it and putting in a living room exposes it to copious amount of UV light over a decade.

It's one of the exact reasons inkjet printers and blank, inkjet-compatible photo paper exists. HP was bundling them with their printers when I last opened mine.

I think it would make perfect sense to print another photo in 10 years and stop giving us a hard time with this ridiculous argument.

Thanks for the laugh. No, seriously (not in a derogatory manner. I really laughed it when I read your comment).

I'm an amateur photographer. I print way more photos than you assume.

Here's a selection: https://bayindirh.vsco.site/

Good for you I guess?

Allows one to see with different perspectives and with a calm mind, too.

Maybe you should try some.

;)

No one is using a bog standard inkjet for something they want to frame for years.

A "bog standard inkjet" with pigment inks is not inferior to photo printing. "Photo lab processed photos" degrade equally badly when not displayed behind UV filtering glass.

Even my "bogger standard" inkjet with dye-based colors hold up extremely well. Heck, the photo is taking at dusk with a very dark-blue background, and it's still equally dark. Maybe the paper coating has UV resistance. IDK.

There's a class of person who's so fundamentally incapable of ignoring authority figures that they'll defend even the most pathetic positions possible.

> there is no such thing as “age appropriate literature.”

Would you be comfortable with a 5 year old reading "Morning Glory, Milking Farm"?

Another disingenuous framing. We’re talking about banning books from school libraries, not my personal comfort with an individual child reading an individual book.

UK's made a fair few arrests for exactly those kinda things

The US should make an alternate internet without europeans so we can avoid them

This will happen naturally. As countries continue to impose their laws on the internet, it will eventually fracture into numerous regional networks with heavy filtering at the borders. The internet will one day cease to exist.

The last thing the world needs is a state mandated hoarde of european reddit moderators plaguing the internet. no thanks.

Come now - why should it just be self selected volunteers or outsourced workers.

Even now on HN we are lucky with who moderates it but this should be more commmon.

And Mandatory service for your own nation. How else will you have a citizenry who can be plugged into their information economy.

OP posted a comment that said they don't think there's anything off limit, which is the natural conclusion.

Some things should not be shown to children. this should not be a controversial topic.

Find a book in a public school library that should not be shown to children, that’s so horrible it will warp minds.

Is it conceivable that some librarian went off their meds and put a pornographic manga title on the shelf? Yea. But what we are talking about are books that are selected by educators getting banned because they represent ideas that small minds are threatened by.

You can generally categorize the age groups present in a school by... looking at the grades served in the school. shocker.

I'm not entirely sure what this is supposed to mean. Like... yes? But my point was, a school may have a very wide range of age groups. A K-12 school will have students from ages ~4 to ~18. Even a regular primary school will have 7 year olds along with 14 year olds. Point being, a book that is inappropriate for the younger students at a school may not be for the older students; and I don't see why the older students shouldn't have access to those books.

Literally just use linux. if you're fed dogshit, don't go back to dog vomit, use an actual operating system like an actual adult.

Going back to win7 is just a neurological pathogen level of stockholm syndrome. give your head a shake.

Modern Linux is bad, nothing works completely, and on top of that, fragmentation between X and Wayland makes it worse. I just want to use my favorite software on a convenient operating system that doesn't eat up a lot of resources. And yes, that’s Windows 7. Just give me back the ability to use Steam or SourceTree and stop forcing bloatware like Windows 10 or Windows 11 on me.

> nothing works completely

Such as? Everything has been working for me the past >20 years.

As for X vs. Wayland: you do not have to care about it. Just install a distro with X.

Steam works on Linux, and lots of games run under Linux now thanks to Proton.

I have 8Gb RAM and HDD. Windows 7 works perfectly, windows 10 work acceptable. Linux bad work: horrible performance browser and IDE especially on distr with snap (browser performance near zero). On linux desktop huge problem with shortcuts. I don't know what the DE developers are doing, but I've never been able to get the key combinations I need and find convenient to work without conflicts with the system ones. Or it's just impossible to set them.

Starting with the very basics: hibernation & track pads.
