Dpkg is the low level tool for Debian packages.

Apt-get is the original frontend for dpkg. It is a full featured tool that lets the user give commands to dpkg, along with apt-cache, which displays information to the user.

Apt is a high level tool for user friendliness. It combines some features from apt-get and apt-cache, as well as adds progress bars and other quality of life features. It also strips down some features the average user doesn’t use.

So neither is a wrapper for the other. They are two similar tools that do the same job. Apt-get is better for scripting due to being a more rigid tool while apt is nicer for end users.

Sure you can!

Get a coin, and flip it 100 times. Record each time it lands on heads/tails.

Now get a devout believer, and have the believer continuously say devout prayers petitioning God to make the coin read heads. Then, flip the coin 100 times, and record heads/tails.

Do statistical analysis to see whether there is a statistically significant difference between the control group and the prayer group. Pretty easy to verify if true.

They’re not endorsing her because they think she’s conservative. They’re endorsing her because they know Trump is on his last leg and they are trying to distance themselves from him.

Immediately after the election settles, they will start criticizing everything Harris does again while trying to build up their version of the Republican party. They’re looking to reboot it without Trump, and this is the way to do it.

Yeah, her reactions to his insanity were the best part.

My favorite line was “Now she wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison.” It doesn’t get more “old man yells at cloud” than that.

Why the hell isn’t the DNC able to sue his ass for libel?

It’s just a snow leopard, you don’t need to censor it with all that blur.

It bothers me that they’re not crossing the other way.

Lemmy’s feed is 1000% better. No constant reposts, no ads, and ability to filter out read posts so it’s actually unique every day. I like it way better for news than reddit.

Reddit is better for browsing individual communities.

Concerned that his usual toast images weren’t converting enough sinners, Jesus decided to kick it up a notch.
