  • truly sad state of things. It’s disinformation like none other. These people are completely oblivious to the facts of his criminal activities because the media they consume is only focused on cultural issues. It’s literally all they see. They have no ability to look things up or fact check or think beyond whatever their pod casts are telling them.

    It’s such a bigger issue about this country as a whole. Education has failed so many. Those same people will vote for people that want to further erode education. They also have lots of kids and groom them to believe nonsense and deny education’s importance. They attack teachers and doctors as being “woke” etc…

    I hope we can come back from this, but the reality is it gets much worse from here.

    ubuntu is the most widely used distro and very simple to setup and gaming out of the box with steam is very simple. Distro end of the day doesn’t matter all that much because you can change them to your hearts content, but for a beginner, you’d probably have the easiest time with an ubuntu distro.

    Doesn’t hurt to have virtual box windows on your linux box just so you can easily do some of that other stuff. While I have done fine with libre office for a long time there are definitely problems with formatting so having a windows VM would just solve that issue. Plus teams and w/e.

    Epic games will take some serious tweaking, but not impossible.




  • yeah and all the “problems” with America are soooo fucking external to them… Like they are never confronted with drag shows or LGBTQ stuff in general. They’ll say things like “you see what’s going on in San Fransico” and I’m like… NO… I don’t live there lol…

    Like they consume ONLY this nonese…

    You see it on reddits /r/conservative and other the_donald wannabe subs. They just non stop talking about gay and trans stuff and I’m in a very liberal city and literally never see any of this supposed “wokeness” or w/e they are so scared of.

    It’s like they are living in an alternative reality it’s very strange.

    I’v been using Ubuntu for nearing 20 years now. Maybe like 18ish… It took debian’s rock solidness and made it ez pz. It’s super easy to install and configure and runs like a dream. Has long term stable releases especially important for server architecture. Has the “server” install that is minimal on disk space.

    Etc… Just really rock solid distro that I’ve run for decades and has cost me $0 to do so.

    I ran red hat till all the cool kids told me it’s got to be Debian and then Ubuntu hit the scene and that was that. I’m sure Arch is fine and I’d bet had I chosen to stick with Red Hat and move to Fedora it’d also be fine. End of the day it’s still Linux.

    I’m in a town of 3600… People are super fucking poor and still work their asses off. None of them would give a fuck if you “try that” or w/e the fuck that guy is on about… They’d go on about their business because they are just surviving. They’d sure as fuck not give a shit about any sorta of vigilante justice. They’d say “that’s definitely not my problem”

    Pretty sure this dude is pandering to wannabees who probably have never actually spent any time in a small town in the US.
