Lol at the downvotes, it’s like 3 clicks. Not rocket science.

Mint deliberately uses an LTS kernel because it’s primary value proposition is stability & simplicity but changing kernels is pretty safe.
So install the latest kernel into Mint ?
Well I’m glad the article was updated to add the “stay in your vehicle” advice, I was shocked the original grauniad article didn’t have it.
I’m sure everyone on here knows but I’m starting to think they should hand out pamphlets at the airport saying something like
“Driving in the bush without adequate preparation kills tourists. If you don’t know what adequate preparation is you’re going to FUCKING DIE, so find out before thinking it’s just like driving to Paris via the Ardennes”
Damn. TIL. knew about the first of course but who am i as three seperate pieces is new to me
Other nations wouldn’t invade. But in the event of a civil war, you can be certain they would be sending in plenty of heavy weaponry.
The US has more military equipment and munitions than the next 5 ranked countries put together - why on earth would there be a need to send weapons ?
Secondly who would be sending weapons ? Russia needs to finish their own war before they could send help to Trump (who will probably have the bulk of the reserves initially), China is unlikely to want to side with either faction, although I’m sure they’d be happy to sell “consumer” Mavic drones to both sides (a la Ukraine).
The remaining western democracies have barely enough capacity to keep Ukraine afloat, although they would side with a pro-democracy anti-Trump faction if it garnered enough support to have a chance but with the massive stockpiles in the US being 100x what the rest of the west has it would be like pissing in the ocean.
In the event of a civil war pro-democracy Americans need to bring military commanders on side so they can utilise existing US stocks - you have the biggest ammo and weapons dumps in the world.
Or the desire, who the hell would want to try a hostile occupation of the US ?
Uggh. I can work out whether to upvote you for the accurate summary of the source of law & state power or downvote you for the utter idiocy of the invasion statement.
Russia can’t - they’re struggling to take over a country a fifth their size and have burnt through their Soviet stockpiles.
UK & EU certainly won’t invade, at most they’d send a peacekeeping force to protect civilians at a UN request (UN probably wouldnt pass it)
Canada will be stretched just keeping fighting out of its borders.
Mexico might just on principle (payback’s a bitch) but has bugger all capacity.
Same for South American Asian and African countries.
That leaves China, and if you think the Chinese are stupid enough to insert themselves in your civil war and create a sole enemy for both sides to fight you have zero understanding of the Chinese strategy.
The Chinese will wait for you all to decimate the country and each other, then come in and buy up the bits they want. Oh and invade Taiwan while y’all are busy destroying your country.
Putin’s plan to destroy the US has worked magnificently.
Lots of people don’t know the US has turned fascist I guess
If you refuse access they immediately refuse entry. Which means you’re immediately deported
Hmmm that looks like parts listings for the Fairphone 4 to me, why do you ask ?
f the federal government set up a replacement program though, and shipped all the JD machinery to Ukraine where hackers know how to modify the software, everyone but JD would win.
Funny you should mention Ukraine, a decade ago (iirc) Ukraine hackers cracked the JD interface and started making available a tool for farmers to manage their own tractors - John Deere sued

Although I suspect you already knew that :-)
But help me understand how it’s possible that our “free market” is enabling this, unless it’s just a controlled market charading as free?
There are very few markets in the US that actually achieve Adam Smith’s “perfect market” (perfect competition)
The more expensive the individual item, the harder it is for there to be competition (costs of standing up factories, distribution and support, low volumes of sales etc), it’s extremely expensive to set up in opposition to John Deere
There are other market statuses other than “controlled” and “free” - the vast majority of US markets are Oligopolies (few sellers many buyers). Processed / packaged foods for example - 99% of market volume is done by a couple of players.
A century ago there were many farm machinery manufacturers - the individual machines were less expensive in real terms, and the complexity much lower. A virtual monopoly (one very large and a few smaller players) has formed through insufficient regulation to protect competition - the big ones gobble up the small and competition gradually dwindles
Sure, you guys get a lot of sugar so anything is an improvement - I just grabbed a UK Heinz Ketchup and checked and it’s 11% sugars (that’s the 50% less sugar version though).
LOL, no added sugar, we’ve just added apple puree so there’s 12.5% sugar (2/16g) but we didn’t ADD any sugar (noting it’s 2g carbs then also 2g sugars which doesn’t sound right as well, the other 14g can’t entirely be fibre and water there will be some complex carbs in there )
And damn is that Daily Value % misleading - it looks like the percentage of the product rather than recommended percent of diet
Russian propagandists claimed that the strike targeted civilians.
Well then, don’t put civilians in Army trucks then.
Yep, those are the subs in question. A poor substitution at the time when it would have cost less just to swap to the French nuclear subs they initially offered
That’s interesting. I hadn’t noticed that. It’s entirely possible, but then that would have been during the Biden era so all bets are off with the Fanta Felon in office
Yep, unless the Brits can pull a rabbit out of a hat.
At least he gets to blame Morrison, and Macron already called Scummo a liar to his face so there will be some sympathy (albeit along with a lot of schadenfreude)
The French have been getting a lot of “I told you so” in in the last 6 months, particularly the “have your own MIC don’t rely on the yanks”
They (CIA) couped Whitlam for trying to regain control over Pine Gap, nothing to do with mining, that was just Rudd (and I’m pretty sure the CIA was uninvolved in that knifing, that was just naked ambition over coming morals).
<shrug> I’ve put later kernels on Mint a half dozen times withno dramas, but whether you should depends on what your use case, preferences and skill are.
I personally wouldn’t do the arse-ache that is an immutable system, but plenty here love their Bazzite it seems. Different strokes for different folks. Nothing wrong with that.
If you love Mint except for the kernel version then it’s an easy fix. If you don’t have deep feelings then either try & be ready to ditch, or pick an alternative.
Just for the record there is no “doing all that” about it. It’s a simple couple of clicks. It couldnt be easier. I’m not sure where you got the idea it was difficult.
