It’s not

But when you have an anxiety disorder paired with a lifetime of observed terribleness from the world, it can feel like it is.

So you’ll excuse me if I’m holding the celebration in fear of the other shoe that might not even drop.

Dead Charlie Kirk

Bolsonaro off to the slammer

Things have been going pretty well. Can’t wait for it all to go to hell again

I know I’m very late to the party and any comment in a thread with 200+ posts is like yelling at the void.

BUT

My experience with Windows has hardly been “it just works”. In fact it has been a history of decades of tinkering and messing around with it to try and get it to do what I want.

The only difference is that Windows obscures everything, so when something breaks it does so quietly. Meaning you might not notice… Or. More likely. It’ll just crash out and you don’t even have an error code to google.

This isn’t to say that Linux isn’t a balancing act of constant maintenance. It is. Just… The Windows experience was never “better” for me from that angle. And… On some level, I enjoy all the tinkering. I think all Linux folks do.

I do

Largely because the CIA still exists and who knows if they won’t miss the good ol operation condor days.

Bold of you to assume incompetence and not malice

They did

And make no mistake Lula is also a crook, he just so happens to be a crook I’m aligned politically with (reformist leftist rather than neofascist)

But that just further proves the Teflon claim:

He did get locked up.

And now he’s president again.

Idk how it is in the first world

But over here it’s pretty much a known fact that every politician is a Mafioso first and a politician second. When they do get in trouble it’s usually because they messed up enough in the political sphere that the other crooks decide to use the apparatus of law to fuck them over. Because if it were about their crimes they’d ALL be behind bars.

I would say “and THAT is how you do it, America”

But I have no faith in this sticking. Mr. Pockets is made of Teflon.

I’m more curious which is Stallman’s poison of choice

rebbit dot cum slash arr slash linux circlejerk

Edit: Also looks a bit like the ‘reduce reuse recycle’ symbol if you squint.

Some of those that work forces

… not the same that burn crosses this time!!!

It can but it’s useless

It only works if the browser tab is focused.

Not very useful as a PTT key.

Em espírito, eu concordo contigo

Olhando lógicamente, não teria sentido, já existem tantas Distros, metade das quais são só forks de Debian e/ou Ubuntu que mudam quase nada. :S

Make them use an old, abandoned distro.

Like Brazil’s own Knoppix fork Kurumin.

The “Shut the Fuck Up Gringo” whale.

I have a better one:

About all politics. No exceptions.

Signed: Brazilian.

Feito.

Eu suponho que seja meu dever nacional postar essa conversa nessa comunidade. Quer algo específico na Print?
