A lot of gay people are kicked out of their homes as children, because they are gay.
A lot of straight people get help from their parents that allows them to purchase their first home.

These are likely connected to that 5% difference..

Also, what’s the cost to medically transition in the states? I bet that also prevents you from being able to get a down-payment together, even if you don’t face workplace issues stemming from you being true to yourself.

It’s mostly different employment laws.

contributed to make pedophilia the #1 vicious crime, surpassing rape in most consciences

It is rape. Children are not able to consent.

What makes the rape of a child seen as worse as the rape of an adult, is that children are vulnerable in every sense of the word; physically, emotionally, financially, and sexually.
Everyone has been a child so they are able to empathize, and we are “programmed” to want to protect them.

It doesn’t have to be!

“?” in a URL often means “Delete from the ‘?’ until the end to avoid garbage”

OP really only counts for OC. You posted a picture of someone else’s post, they are OP.

There were some old PCI cards that were very badly designed, and they required things plugged into them from inside the case, or they needed to plug into things on the motherboard. I had card that controlled Cold cathode tube lighting that could also connect to audio to sync to the music that worked that way

But, the actual answer is that the grommets are for old-school water-cooling.

It’s “home”

This appears to be a home depot.

The promo is that the labour is $99, but you need to buy the carpet, the underlayment/underpadding, the tack strips, and everything else from the installer. They generally don’t install the in-store carpeting, so it needs to be ordered in, which costs more. This also does include any stairs, or transitions.

There is also a minimum floor size.

Not since I was kicked out at 15 for being gay.

Happy Pride month!

Have you looked into Mint?

The linux mint forums make it seem like it works out of the box. I know that it worked out of the box for my Thinkpad x380, even the touchscreen, pen, and screen rotation.

by “client” do you mean “just use a browser”?

This is “ask Lemmy”, what is the question?

Before Markus starting saying racist shit, or Q-anon shit, or anti-trans shit.

you missed the “!”, so browsers parse that as an email address

You can change your settings so that nothing plays that you don’t want to, it stops a lot of garbage and ads from websites.

Firefox on your phone:

-choose “block audio and video”

Doesn’t Steam keep up with the amount of time people have played their games? Or is it up to the individual games to track that?

Steam does keep track of play time, but I am not sure what playtime has to do with my comment.

The term everyone uses is drop out.

They don’t say how they come to that number in the article, so I assume they are using non-sale prices. I know that I’ve gotten some bundles of games in the past that were 95%+ off, which I bought just for the one game because it was the same price or cheaper.

If you’re trying to format a picture, you need to leave 2 spaces at the end of a line for a line break.

If you’re not having a good time, stop. Life is too short.

If you’re still interested in using linux, LinuxMint or PopOs! are what most people would recommend to a new user, not Arch.

Arch can be perfect for users with the time, knowledge, and effort to perfectly tailor things to suit their needs. They can make it perfectly efficient, without any excess.
I just want to use my computer whenever I want it to work. I am fine with it having a few extra packages/applications that I might never use. I’ve being using linux as main (or only) operating system on/off for about 20 years, and I currently use Mint.
