  • It seems like a way to help old fucks like me - who have never used anything but Windows and hate anything new and still bitch about the windows key - learn how to use Linux without throwing up our hands and going back to Windows 11. I am planning to use Mint, and Cinnamon, when I nuke my desktop’s Windows installation, because I’m just too goddamn tired to learn too many new things at a time and I liked Windows 98.

    Is Cinnamon still a good idea for me, even though it does not sound like a good idea for people still able to form new neuronal connections?






  • What is adding doom and gloom? That’s the metric that really matters here. According to the sub, anyway. I do enjoy a technical definition conversation, and with the majority thing you’ve probably hit on a workable metric for a sub more interested in bridging a divide.

    However, this sub seems to be more about “Hey, we just don’t wanna feel bad about current events while reading these, okay?” It seems that a mere reference to a trans person does not make most people feel bad. And that actually correlates with polls of the general population.










  • We’re having this same discussion in Australia, where the number of guns you can own is now being restricted quite heavily. However, the limits are quite reasonable for people who need it for farm work, sports shooting, hunting etc. I’d hate to be a collector, because that might not be a thing any more.

    As a country though we’re making the choice to prioritise lives over convenience, as we often do. And for that I am happy.
