Dear Fucking God!

The Guardian is a generally reputable source but I swear this reads like an Onion piece. If true, then the Republican’s there are truly trying to create an uneducated and uninvolved electorate. Jeez, I am glad I don’t live in Texas. Granted, Alabama isn’t much better, but still.

If you don't have an experience using the command line then it's a tad more involved then I can explain in-depth on mobile. Best I can do is give a brief outline.

To start with, wescode/lemmy_migrate is a python 3 script. If you are running windows install WSL (Ubuntu), once you have a command line I am familiar with you will want to download the repository from GitHub to a directory.

You will then need to create a config file called migrate.conf Use the sample provided in the repo under configuration. Edit it to use your information. You can use nano as a text editor.

Then it looks like the command would be something like:

python lemmy_migrate -c ./migrate.conf

Sorry if that is crap help, but I'm not near my computer right now, and don't often use Windows anymore to boot.

PS:

WSL is a program from Microsoft that gives you a mostly functional Linux command line within Windows. None of this is as complicated as it sounds, I'm using more words then strictly necessary to explain things somewhat at beginner level. The most time consuming part of this would be first installing WSL and then installing Ubuntu onto WSL. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do so.

Hopefully someone more familiar with Windows can tell you how to do the same thing from either the DOS prompt or from Windows PowerShell. It's doable, (almost anything is) I'm just not familiar enough with either to walk you through it.

Reddit apparently still hasn’t figured out the maxim “Don’t piss off the free help.” TANSTAFL.

I hope it meant arm yourself with knowledge, because what this nation does not need more of is scared folks with firearms. We’ve enough of those as is.

Sadly, I’m guessing not.

Sounds like catching a computer virus is fixing to take on a whole new meaning.

Considering the genres I tend to listen to most frequently (country, jazz, blues, bluegrass) don’t really have a problem with people doing covers, that is a very long list.

The only one that pops to mind currently is Hurt by Johnny Cash. I think it was the better part of a year before I found out about Nine Inch Nails’ original version.

That’s what I thought. I’m trying to wrap my head around why someone who had already illegally entered Canada would then try to get into the the US. The only answer that seems to make any sense is if they were trying to link up with family already in the States.

Gee, I'm shocked! Shocked I say! /s

What gets me is, why come into America? They had already reached Canada. Canadians seem alot more chill then us. Or does Canada have less tolerance for illegal immigration than the US?

That was a good read, thanks!

Are any of them out of Test Flight yet?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I'll be damned... Did not know that existed. I've never used the Windows store and it still found updates for most of what I have installed.

Thanks!
