  • That’s always been happening and its always been futile. We have major problems yet the focus is on everything but. We focus on hatred over insignificant bullshit and how we’re victimized because people don’t agree with every aspect of more mundane things. This presidential election we’ll put a senial old man, who we aren’t even sure runs the government, up against a sociopath who cares primarily about winning and little else, because we don’t want to admit that we might have been wrong about guns, sexuality, etc. Meanwhile the candidate that cares most about the environment doesn’t stand a chance because of one or two things we nitpick andsayy he’s wrong about, that he doesn’t fall into line with our collective and mutually shared toxic justifications for hatred of “the bad guys from the other party”. There’s a lot of various reasons, that are too many to mention, which arrived us to where we are with climate change and those reasons go back at least half a century. I think today, however, as a mob or a society or a community or whatever you want to call it, we’re the dumbest we’ve ever been and that’s what we are when the stakes are the highest and the problem is VERY immediate. We got here through a cult mentality of hate and justification of that by choosing to be victims. With respect to inaction on climate change, if it weren’t the political case, we would gave been using mostly nuclear power for the past 40 years. It wasn’t politicians or lobbyist that resisted when it was on the table, it was people influenced by pop culture, musicians, actors… the same shit as today, same sing being sung for the sane reason but withdifferent lyrics that fit the narrative at the time. There’s people here complaining that the people responsible for the end of the world aren’t held accountable and at the same time voting for what public bathrooms people use is more relevant than our literal survival. If that doesn’t imply that we are a collective pack of idiots, then I’m a 10 foot tall wizard with a 16 inch penis.






  • I’ve been using Linux for 19 years. In that time I’ve very rarely booted Windows.

    If you don’t feel comfortable with Linux, then why use it? People who pressure you ir have an elitist attitude have always existed on both Linux and Windows, but they come and go.

    The only legitimate complaint someone might generally have is Windows being a weak link on a local network, but in most cases its usually, even then, just someone trying to be part of the in crowd of Linux opposed to actually understanding what they’re saying well enough to have a reasonable concern.

    Most people who become interested in Linux go through some kind of phase that involves talking crap about security or privacy or free software rights, but regardless of any of that being true or untrue, most of us just wanted to try something different when we tried it and switched after becoming addicted, then we go through our arrogant phase.
