Every so often i start believing all the posts about how Linux really made a lot of progress, and the desktop experience is so much better now, and everything is supported, and i give it another try....
I’ve been on Fedora for a few years now, and been using some kind of Linux as primary for over 15 years. Your experience sounds like something from a few years ago.
If you haven’t tried Fedora yet, I’d highly recommend it over Ubuntu, which is likely one of the bigger cause of your issues.
whenever I post or talk to people on an online forum or something like that, they think that I’m a child or “chid-llike” q.q That is fake!! I’m not a child because I am 20 years old ok!! But it’s ok if they think that, I think it’s something disrespectful >.
SRINAGAR, India (AP) — From Western capitals to Muslim states, protest rallies over the Israel-Hamas war have made headlines. But one place known for its vocal pro-Palestinian stance has been conspicuously quiet: Indian-controlled Kashmir.
100% true. India is one of the biggest consumers of Israel’s weapons, and the Hindu fascist government(with big Nazi fans) is very keen on replicating the apartheid model here.
For a current project, I’ve been struggling with my language files. They’re all JSON files, and will always fallback to English if translations aren’t available....
Is there a specific reason your translations are in json files, and not using a system such as gettext? IMO those .po files are much easier to translate for non-tech people, especially with many third party apps available for editing them. There are libraries available for many languages, so you don’t have to do anything manually in most cases.

Christianity in India is a super small minority, and a large number of Christians are descendants of people from marginalized communities, who converted to escape persecution by ‘upper caste’ Hindus.
Regardless of whether one agrees with the ideas of Christianity is irrelevant here. This is an attack by a militant offshoot of a Hindu-supremacist political party, which has been in power for two terms now. Very 1930s Germany vibes here.
Hey all, i need some advice. Theres a person i have to deal with on a regular basis that repeatedly misgenders me, and im having issues dealing with it. I would appreciate advice on how to approach and deal with this cause im at a loss....
I don’t usually like this term, but this awfully sounds like a ‘theyfab’. Unfortunately it’s very common for some non binary people to lean on the fact that they were afab, to misgender, belittle, and disrespect transfemmes.
I would recommend reducing/stopping friendly personal interaction to start, slowly moving to cold shoulder, and if possible, cutting off all non-work conversation.
Also, I know this must be very difficult to deal with. Sending you internet hugs 🫂
I’m not reducing people to their AGAB. Theyfab is a very specific term for people who are afab, and specifically exhibit transmisoginy based on the AGAB for transfemmes.
How exactly? I don’t think, neither did I say, that all people assigned female at birth have this behavior. I’m specifically referring to a small subset of afab people, who use their AGAB to reduce transfemmes to their AGAB.
