    What nonsense? Look it up in a thesaurus.

    Yes, people want skilled professionals. Who says they shouldn’t? They should also care about a system that favors a dominant class largely because of historic access to (stolen) capital. After all, that would reduce competition and competency.

    What’s being implied by bringing up “merit” as antithetical to DEI is that you can’t trust people outside of the dominant class to do the work competently. If that were the case, the problem is not DEI, it’s upstream: fair access to education and opportunities, but I don’t hear DEI opponents crying about that.











  • Yes. I encrypt because theft. I know PopOS and Mint make it 1-click ez. …unless of course you want home and root on a separate drives. That scales difficulty real fast. There’s plenty of tutorials, and I managed, but I had to patch together different ones to get a basic setup-- Never mind understanding exactly what I did and repeating it (the latest challenge I’ve been dragging my feet on). I do hope this is an area that sees more development in the near future.









  • Sorry you’re experiencing technical difficulties. Perhaps it’s the browser or client and a different one may yield better results. I also had a hard time getting into the twitter-like platforms. Even mastodon I now use more for notifications/updates. Lemmy has been the first fruitful online community I’ve used in years, so I hope it works out for you, too.
