I don’t usually lower myself to ad hominems, but goddamn demon spawn shit-for-brains. She’s more disturbing than possessed Regan MacNeil in The Exorcist.

Yeah that’s cold blooded murder alright. This group of fat fucks couldn’t even take one guy and so they killed him out of spite. It’s going downhill with the USA at an accelerating pace.

Remember what the mayor said: defeat them with love and hugs.

I’d give up computing altogether, or even commit suicide if living mainly means being subservient to these soulless parasites.

“On 10 October 1789, physician Joseph-Ignace Guillotin proposed to the National Assembly that capital punishment should always take the form of decapitation “by means of a simple mechanism”.”

I do like Björk but I’m not sure how much weight to give her opinions about international politics.

It doesn’t matter who says what, but that what is said is ethical and logically sound. But yeah, obviously the larger the fanbase the more eloquent/nuanced one should be.

Thank goodness.

💌 A paragon of proper Internet behaviour right here.

Oh come on, this has to be satire.

If tech bros really have become this robotic, then, as Robin William’s Good Morning Vietnam script read:

“You are in more dire need of a blowjob than any white man in history.”

Murderous bullies need to be met with virtuous Luigi Mangiones.

So far I’ve encountered the smoothest OS experience with Arch-based EndeavourOS. Perhaps twice a year something breaks for which the forum or Arch Wiki usually provided the fix within a day. The other 363 days I simply update in the morning/evening and all is well—sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm and yay --noconfirm.

Conversely, on Debian, it drives me nuts that one is prevented from updating even if one public key from one unimportant repository is missing or something. This troubleshooting is way harder for beginners than most things I’ve needed to do to fix my EndeavourOS install.

I’ve got a complete Linux beginner to start off with EndeavourOS without problems. She’s even troubleshooting and fixing suddenly non-working Steam games by herself.

In any case, any Linux is better than Windoze. Try different distributions if you’ve got a spare PC to test with and see what fits you. For the greatest peace of mind, always have two or more hard drives or have a directory that instantly syncs to a cloud to separate the OS from crucial data one cannot lose in case something goes awry. As for desktop environments (DE), I started off with Xfce about ten years ago, used that most of the time. Then fell for the KDE Plasma hype for about year—they’re doing great stuff, but a bit too bloated and buggy for my liking, as well as trying to have a KDE app for everything instead of acknowledging some other software is simply better. One can’t be the best at everything. Anyway, then I tested multiple DEs because all of them have exclusively useful features, and the perfect mix between the most prominent ones (Xfce, Plasma, Gnome) I’ve found to be Cinnamon, the default on Linux Mint. For me that’s the perfect beginner friendly DE that also remains highly configurable/extensible to suit experienced users, without being overwhelming/bloated to anyone.

Have fun and build whatever you want in your new awesome sandbox. Screw M$ without restraint nor compassion.
